The Day Today

[bugshaw]

It is a nice sunny morning (well, just starting to cloud over) and I am off on a bus (the X5) to Milton Keynes to visit Naomi WINOLJ. It can be a nice relaxing day, as we don't have to talk about tax! Hoorah! There may be walking involved, and almost definitely a nice lunch.

I am not going with rhubarbfool to see this film as I'm afraid it looks insanely tedious. Check out Roger Ebert's review - apparently it grows on you. "How is it that the same movie can seem tedious on first viewing and absorbing on the second? Why doesn't it grow even more tedious?"

Tuesday was less efficient than I had hoped. I caught up with LJ and e-mail and felt very stressed. LJ does instill an artificial sense of urgency which I should probably try to avoid. Reply! Reply! Refresh! Reply!

Did two loads of laundry and no ironing
Took a small bag of things to charity shop
Played with gerbils
Did some cross-stitch
Watched Legally Blonde 2 which was highly feeble.

See yous later!

Probably a bit late to mention but,...

When using the X5 it can be quite good to get a £5.99 Explorer ticket (buy on any bus) which will get you to Milton Keynes and back and any other Stagecoach bus saving you a bit of your walk to and from the bus station. I think then return to Milton Keynes probably costs £5.99 anyway.
The film got good reviews in lots of other places. I'll tell you tomorrow whether it was worthwhile.

I feel much the same about Uzak :-)
