A Better Way of Putting It

You can always do whatever you want, if you actually know what you want.

Money well spent.

Today, I spent:

$52.50 on a poster for a movie that was never made, was never going to be made, and never will be made. Because it has a raptor driving a jeep and a man with three hands (for the three things a man needs to do).

$11 on a joke that will only be funny to one other person in the world, who I at the current time have no way to share it with.

$4 tipping for a breakfast order that was wrong in two separate ways, only one of which was in any sense corrected.

$6.50 on strawberry cheesecake ice cream that melted before I got it home.

Obviously I can't spoil myself like this every day, but now and then it's nice.

For His Health, You Know

At a certain point in his life, if not more than once or indeed continually, a man feels that he must go to sea.  He might go someplace by way of the sea, but really it's as well if he just gets out on to the water and stays there for a while.  The point is just to get off solid land, really.

Inception

So.  Inception is out.  I have now seen it.  Next, I will see it in IMAX.  I might see it again on a normal screen at some point before or after that, as well.

What will I do with my life after that?  I have some ideas.

No Sense of Time

The clocks all say it's 21H00 but it looks exactly the same outside my window as it did at noon, and I have very little sense of any time having passed since then, let alone nine hours.  I was going to do something today...  Maybe I already did it?

Broiled Shrimp, Belgian Beer, and Happiness

Marinate ~900g of raw, shell-on shrimp with one can of coconut milk, about one third to one half cup of pineapple juice, three bulbs worth of minced garlic, maybe four tablespoons or so of minced ginger, and three bunches of scallions for a day and a half, and then broil for ten minutes, turning once, followed by baking at 400C for another eight or nine minutes.  Proceed to eat yourself sick.  Fantastic.  Goes rather well with some toasted naan bread and strong Belgian beer.

I haven't really got any idea what I'm doing with my life, except that at the moment it's not much, but today I'm perfectly okay with it.
