For the Solstice

"Straight No Chaser- 12 Days of Christmas" (Watch on YouTube)

return of the light

My solstice celebration seems to have involved watching Shaun of the Dead, which I had never seen before and is very good. The return of the sun was symbolized by that disco bit where the one guy was flipping the fuses. It was a very moving and meaningful scene.

Thanks. I think Megan should get an award for putting up with me.

I have a cunning plan

Usually I watch DVDs while I'm eating. I had put in the first of the Dirty Jobs DVDs and was watching it while my dinner cooked. He was in a sewer with rats and cockroaches. Deciding I wasn't about to watch that while eating, I put in a Buffy DVD - I've been watching Season 5. It's the "Doublemeat Palace" episode.

Maybe I should go back to the rats and roaches.
