This & that

I virtually never see films at the cinema but this week saw No Country for Old Men (Coen Brothers' latest) on Tuesday with marnameow & dogrando; and then St Trinian's on Friday with uon. They were both v good in very different ways, although NCFOM had rather more in the "people drowning in their own blood" line (I probably only actually watched about 95% of it & had my eyes shut for the rest). St T was awesome fun, and very very silly. uon commented:
"I was expecting to see a shit film, but what I actually saw was a rather good music video."
which I think is about right.

Curiously, I suspect that St T would have suffered more, of the two, from being seen on TV screen rather than cinema-size screen. I also think that I only liked NCFOM because it was done by the Coen Brothers and therefore was able to stay just the right side of not-horrible (re blood, serial killers, etc).

Then last night went over to spikeylady & ciphergoth's, and saw assorted lovely people and generally had a splendid evening. Hurrah. Today I feel a little "tired" (copyright atommickbrane) but need to resurrect myself sufficiently to drill holes in the outside wall so I can put plant-pots on shelves there.

Also I have only 2 days left of being not-30.
