Had a pretty nice day. Haircut, awesome buckwheat crepe at a farmer's market near my friend's house and then went to see the Summer Exhibition at the Royal Academy (for free! Thanks to my friend's work).

Catching up on Flickr uploading now. So many photos, only so many imaginative titles and captions. I have got up to uploading the trip I took to Warwick in March. Yes, really, I am that behind.

I watched In Bruges tonight. It was pretty cool and made me miss the whole six hours I spent in Bruges. Now watching The International which is surprisingly boring. I mean, there's a full-on shootout going on (not really sure why tbh) and still, bored. The Princess Bride DVD wouldn't work. It was sad.

Also, talking of things that are boring. I finally watched the Caprica pilot and I'm sort of intrigued. Sort of. Maybe. Mostly I was bored. Does it get better?

My F1 tickets arrived today but I was out. Picking them up before work on Monday. Incredibly exciting!

I am still doing this:

Day 13. A song that you play when you're angry

This song is somewhat of a guilty pleasure, because I realise it's a little dated (2000, wow) and a little angry teenage boy, but it tends to be my go-to song when I'm angry. It's catchy, what can I say.

Papa Roach - Last Resort





Managed to find an uncensored version, because it's not nearly as much fun without the fuck's. Yeah, I never made any pretensions to excellent musical taste.

Day 22 - A song you can't help but air-jam to



And I saw this:



The high point of this was Neal and Peter's banter, which was awesome. The plot was eh, but the interplay between the characters was the high-point, which is just as White Collar should be.

Just out of curiosity, but do all banks in Manhattan look like that? It's all a little mystifying to me, as no banks I've seen in NZ and UK look nearly that impressive. Perhaps I am just going to wrong sort of banks? ;)

Also, that looks disturbingly like the bank they use at the start of The Dark Knight? And with the masks ... hmm. Homage perhaps?

I was so happy that Diana was coming back, and then the end happened. Hmm. Interesting. I wonder how deep she's in.

Also, not enough Elizabeth.



London Comic and Sci-fi Con tomorrow at Earls' Court. Katee Sackhoff! Hopefully anyway. Maybe William Shatner, depending on how crazy the queues are. Should be interesting anyway.
