We went to a *movie* tonight! Ted rented a car so he could go down to Cork for the next couple days and look at houses, so we took the car over to Portlaoise (pronounced Portleesh) and went to Aeon Flux. I expected Aeon Flux to be as bad as I expect X3 to be, except without the emotional investment. To my surprise, while it’s not as good as X-Men was, it was considerably better than it had any right to be, and given my low expectations, even managed to…

finally!
I am finally writing the penultimate chapter to COYOTE DREAMS, and all unexpectedly, I suddenly like how the story is ending.

A genius. Obviously. Cute, too.…

Had they played, I’d have probably not finished the season, but, er, I did. :) I did skip 18, because it didn’t look like it had anything to do with the continuing storyline, which was not wrapped up as I expected it to be.
