l33tminion: You people get it (Colbert)
Going to talk a bit about my life, although to what extent... At any rate:

Friday: Anime club was fun. The best part was the late feature, Eve no Jikan ("the time of Eve" or "time of the eve", since the more precise romanization ("ibu") can still be read as either "the night before" or the name "Eve" (with biblical allusions intact). Anyways, I really like that show since despite the odd format (2/6 episodes published so far, with a 15-minute episode released every two months), the quality is high and I really like the premise. (Basically: The singularity arrives, but this being Japan, it's too polite, so nobody notices. Of course, this is the sort of problem that can only be solved by opening an underground cafe.)

Saturday: Went to the Club Passim 50th anniversary concert. Kris Delmhorst, Girlyman, Paper Raincoat, and Laura Cortese. Violins were played like guitars, Girlyman was as awesome as always, CDs were bought, fun was had. Afterward, went to IHOP with Xave and Patti, where the service was slow and Patti got food poisoning (can't win them all, evidently).

Sunday: Saw District B13 with DJ and Ginneh. To summarize that: Some French filmmakers decided it would be awesome to make an action movie with free-runners as the stars and have them do their own stunts without wires or CGI, so they did and it was.

Also, I had ordered two games from Amazon a while ago (Shadow of the Colossus and No More Heroes), only to find out a few days ago that they had supposedly been delivered last week. A search didn't turn it up, and none of my housemates had seen it, which led me to conclude that it had been lost in the mail. I emailed Amazon, and they promptly sent me a replacement free of charge. I received that today. So props to Amazon and their shockingly good customer service.

Heading to bed now. Need extra sleep. Stayed up far too late last night playing Fallout 3.
