No Paragon last night. Sad face. More importantly, though, well wishes to Leslie's mom. Hopefully the hospital will get it right this time.
Spent over six straight hours cleaning the old place today, whilst certain other residents decided it would be more prudent to go concert and bar hopping. Thank goodness BREEN offered to help out the entire time. So my clothes wouldn't get nastied, I was wearing a green hooded raincoat, with purple gloves and a scrubbing wand. I was the PHANTOM OF CLEANING! I frightened the filth away, into the drain, or paper followed by garbage.
Potentially Unnecessary Products:
Instant refried beans. As seen in the bulk foods section of WinCo. Yeah...no.
Some kind of...clamshell device designed specifically to hold a bagel while you bisect it. For maximum safety. Maximum taste. As you can see, it fancies itself a bagel slicer, but I'm not sure you can call a product something when it performs only an arbitrary and tangential function to an activity that is actually being accomplished by something you already had (i.e.; a knife).
I got Coraline on Tuesday, because everyone seems to have liked it quite a bit. Maybe I will eventually get a chance to watch it. I was excited, because it was actually in 3D! on the DVD itself. I was expecting the fancy circular polarization 3D in which it was released in the theater, though, but it seems they resorted to anaglyphing for the home release, as evidenced by the red/blue glasses that were inside the DVD case. Disappointing... I wonder if there's a technical limitation for polarization filtering needing two simultaneous overlaying projectors to produce the effect...still, I figure there'd be some way to duplicate the effect with alternation on a single display. And I even have a few pairs of the nice glasses... Oh, well; maybe anaglyping is better than it used to be...I'll have to see how it turns out.
