Ah, Friday at last.

Last night featured some working out, some movie watching, and drum practice.

I caught the Last Kiss with Zach Braff via Netflix. The subject matter is tragic: people screwing up their relationships with young children involved. It chewed on my heart strings, it did.

I practiced the drums a bit. In particular, I was taking an existing recording from a friend and trying to add drums to it. I was getting frustrated because something wandered off track compared to the click and the guitar rhythms. I'll have to mess around without the click track. I'll have plenty of time to mess around with this this weekend.

Something is whacky with my series 2 tivo and the integration with the Comcast box. Some of my recorded shows show up as the 'on demand cable" screen. I don't know how that can happen, so I'll have to noodle over that one.

MSNBC is cracking me up. A news item is the amount of press that is stalking Prince William's girlfriend Kate Middleton. Ugh. Why is this news to us?

As for Bush's proposal for Iraq: While I was not in favor of starting this invasion, we're there, and we kinda messed things up. So the question is: is it better for us to walk away or try and stabilize the area? If we leave, I suspect Iraq will not be our ally. Then again, I don't think they were ever meant to be one.

Well, i can't dwell on this further, time to prepare for work.

Merry C-E-E, folks!

I hope your Saturdays are going well!

Mom changed plans on me today, she didn't feel up to going to San Francisco as she didn't like the limits of time for the Ferry Schedule. That's probably for the best. I invited her to my place for Christmas Eve and she can spend the night and we can go to Uncle Peter's for Christmas day together. So, I need to take care of some stuff that's built up in the guest room and prepare the guest bed. :-)

So, the Christmas Eve dinner so far:
Filet roast
Stuffed Mushrooms
Sweet Potato Casserole
Dinner rolls of some sort.

I need to plan a vegetable to bring to Uncle Peter's abode. Maybe I'll just make extra stuffed mushrooms.

I will also try to swing by [livejournal.com profile] taogrl's place, as well.

So, it is Saturday morning, and I'm having a bowl of Flax Raisin bran. I got it at the Food Cooperative. It's really tasty. Ergo, it must not be nearly as healthy as I think. But it is high in fiber.

Ghostbusters is on comedy central. Always a fun movie. When I saw it was on, I immediately remembered a high school graduation memory: [livejournal.com profile] brittadotcom and some other friends of ours went and saw the premier of Ghostbusters the day after we graduated. I don't think we got too much sleep that night before, either.

But it is fun to see how Bill Murray has grown in his acting. Ghostbusters back in the late 80s, and then Lost in Translation a few years ago.

Now, I'm doing something rare, watching live television. I haven't seen commercials in a long time. There's some guy kissing his amp'd mobile phone. And music compilation cds. I've forgotten about those commercials. This cd was "Goin' South", and it has all the southern rock classics: Heard it in a Love Song, Sweet Home Alabama, The Night They Drove Ol' Dixie Down, etc.

Who buys these compilations? I've never once called immediately to order one of those cds.
