Jun. 30th, 2009 12:52 amHaving a movie night with the kids. Well, not a movie night exactly, just that's what we call it when they get to stay up late-ish. We're watching the National Geographic channel, which is featuring strange fish shows--the exploding whale is on now, and then there's a show on various fish with creepy teeth. These are things that appeal to children, don't let anyone tell you differently.
I'm working further on the Nerthus shawl while this is going on--just changed to the second color, which is always kind of neat. I'm not sure how much I like the white bits in the tweed, but we'll see how it turns out.
I guess I can watch the news again, now that most of the Michael Jackson brouhaha has moved from news channels to entertainment channels. Too late to see much about the Iran elections, unfortunately. (You know, even BBC America did something like a whole hour on MJ! That, I found disappointing.)
Read Brubaker's Catwoman today, very nice. Illustrated by Darwyn Cooke, also very nice. Very noir. Fun stuff.
