[m i a o w] the cat

Claire and I shook up the Nova last night for a long overdue upgrading of my cultural consciousness. We hit Trotters for our usual feasting frenzy and then went and saw Morvern Callar, which I reckon was pretty good. It could have actually continued a little bit longer than it did, but it was… oh, I don’t know. Claire is the Cinema Queen, I’m not good at describing movies, I work better with books. Speaking of books, we both bought a book each from the awesome book place near the Nova box office - not Borders, but the one that’s been there forever. Claire bought one that was relevant to her academic pursuits (i.e I can’t remember what it was called) and I got Script Girls, which I’m sure Lisa and Christine will want to borrow - there’s a copy left and it’s only $10 (reduced from $45 - ooh!). It discusses and documents female (mainly Hollywood) scriptwriters from around the 1930s to today…I’m keen! But I’m still plowing my way through my Elizabeth George - my train rides every day are helping me do lots of reading! I’m just worried about fitting anything more into my suitcase!
