This is starting to get very strange. :(
This past weekend is the second good weekend I've had in a row. Last weekend was probably one of the best birthday weekends I've had in my life. This weekend I got very little done, but nothing tremendous really went wrong. I spent most of the weekend outfitting my new PowerBook. But everything went so well with it, I can't complain. Friday night we saw a midnight screening of my favorite anime movie "Ghost in the Shell." For you Japanese people out there who may not have heard of it, in Japan it's called "Kokaku Kidotai." Anyway, it's about what it means to be human, to have a soul, and an identity. Oh yeah, and it's about cyborgs. :) It was the terribly dubbed version, but it's always cool to see my favorite anime on the big screen. (But the dub is really TERRIBLE!)
Then, Sunday night, almost on a complete whim, TheFiancee and I went up to Universal Citywalk and had a really nice night there, too. Check out TheMoBlog for pics. While there, we did a bit of window shopping, bought the most kick ass Gamera figure I've ever owned/seen and saw a really fun movie called "Saved!" It's a nice little film about how extreme religion in social situations can sometimes cause problems. Although if you're a hardcore believer in the power of Jesus to transform your life for the best, you probably won't want to see this movie that tells the story of how one high school girl's love of Jesus transformed her life for the worst.
So, the weekend passes and I'm up a pleasant few days, a computer, a good anime, a good live action movie and a great Gamera fig.
So, you can see why I'm concerned.
I feel like something terrible is going to happen, like, an earthquake, or a terrorist attack will occur just because I've had so many good times all in a row. Honestly, I have so little to complain about that I'm worried that I'll take one step outside my apartment today and a safe will land on my head.
Maybe I'm just finally being punished with good times for a decade of abuse from my career choice, or my PC-use, or general abundance of crappy dayjobs. Maybe it's all of the above.
That reminds me, I've got to get to work!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
