I got back home yesterday after spending a relaxing day in Boston. The flight was overbooked, so they upgraded me to first class, which was pretty cool.

This morning I had to wake up to go to a bar mitzvah celebration for one of Solomon's friends. Aside from that, the day was pretty uneventful.

We've got cable internet at my house now. Wireless, too. :-)

Books- Finished Cryptonomicon, started The Dwarves of Whiskey Island. Cryptonomicon is definitely a masterwork (although I think I'd recommend Snow Crash over it if someone was only going to read one of the two; I recommend reading both, though).

Movies- Saw Attack the Gas Station! yesterday. It was all right, but not as hilarious as the person who recommended it to me seemed to think. I also say Narnia today, and it was very good, about as good as an adaptation of that book could be. (Though, regarding the book, I still sort of agree with this.)

I didn't think it was that evil.

Snow Crash? I think I have that book, but I haven't read it yet. I have half a library of scfi/fantasy that I haven't read yet; I bought it off ebay a couple years ago uber-cheap, and haven't gotten around to reading them all yet.

I have, however, found several books in it that should not be read.

Ever.
