How to Train Your Dragon, They.

Yesterday was Liz's birthday. We got together with Harry and went to see How to Train Your Dragon. It was really good. Afterwards, we had lunch at Wendy's. Liz wasn't feeling well (she didn't eat lunch, just theater food), so they took me home.

Today, I've been doing the usual Sunday stuff. I found a movie that has been on a few times today on at least two different channels called They. It appears to be about a group of young people plagued by creatures that leap out at them in dark places. Each of these people (about four of them) finds a strange mark on their body shortly before the creatures get them (or in one character's case, before he freaks out and kills himself to escape the creatures). You know when the creatures are about to attack because the light in the room starts to flicker, then goes out.....

Speaking of creatures in dark places, I have a large spider about the size of Peter (the funnel web spider I kept alive in a jar for about two years) hiding in the shadows behind a pipe between the sink and the toilet. It has a web there, and I have been tossing ants into the web. I haven't been getting the ants from outside--they have been appearing in my bathroom a lot recently....

Alice in Wonderland.

Yesterday, I went to see Alice in Wonderland (in 3-D) with Harry. The movie was really good, even better than I expected. Depp's Mad Hatter was a bit crazy, as was Carter's Red Queen. I thought the CGI Cheshire Cat was really cool, floating around and disappearing throughout the movie. After the movie, we had lunch at Valentino's (an Italian buffet).

Quiet weekend.

I didn't end up getting together with Tom and Liz this past weekend. I did my laundry, did some reading, and watched some stuff on DVD. I have been playing games on a free online multiplayer site I found recently. My favorite is "Balloono"--you're a monkey armed with water balloons and trying to take out the other monkeys.

Weekend of Two Movies.

I have not heard back from the place I interviewed at last week. I talked with Pat and Larry on the phone. Larry didn't have any work for us, but hopefully that will change soon.

On Saturday, I spend the day with Harry and Liz. They had some errands to run, so I tagged along. We ate lunch with Harry's folks at Hector's, then went back to Harry's place. Harry and I watched Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths on DVD. Later, we got some pizza for dinner and watched The Vampire's Assistant on DVD with Liz. Afterwards, they gave me a lift home and let me have the leftover pizza.

Today, I have been working on laundry. I did some reading and some ironing as well. I borrowed Up from Harry and Liz and plan to start watching it this evening.
