Random Monday, and Pittsburgh pictures!
Nov. 19th, 2002 01:28 amSleepy at work. Went to a bunch of meetings anyway, got some stuff done. Yay. Uwajimaya chinese food line has free Monday drinks again.
Eli made fish for dinner, and we went to see Harry Potter. The theater was actually pretty empty... no problem getting seats right in the middle. As for the movie... I think I had a lot of the same issues as with the first one, with the editing. As usual, Ron had all the best lines. And they thoroughly managed to once again ignore that there are FOUR houses at Hogwarts, as they barely even acknowledged that Justin Finch-Fletchley existed, and totally cut out the whole Hufflepuff sideplot. Quidditch was too short, or at least, the chase scene was too long... not enough Oliver Wood in this movie. ;) The actors playing Tom Riddle and Moaning Myrtle were definitely... interesting, to say the least. Lucius Malfoy was dead on. Lockhart... oh boy. I think Branagh did such a good job with the character that I totally hated him for it, which is probably a good thing.
I promise, none of that will actually spoil the movie for you.
Anyway, we got home a little before 1am and I finished up photothumbing my Pittsburgh pictures. So here, I will let you all see them now:

Some of my favorites:
Nick escorts me across campus
Tom 7 with stuff
Alex and his Coke stash
Neil is Dangerous with a camera.
Freaky Laura at CTF
Ed does ballet at CTF
Me and Martin at Joe Mama's
Dan Fernandez and the Anti-Cheer book
SALLY!
The wonderful after-game recording session
The Ghetto 7th/3rd Mix Marquee
Gratuitously cute picture of Rebecca and TJ
Me with the OGS guys
I am a cat. Hear me mrow?
Understanding Gamers
Me and Carl -- and we're both smiling!
Whee. Anyway, you should just look at them all, if you were a part of my weekend. Or even if you weren't. Whee!
