Weekend in Review

Instead of reading The Year of the Boar and Jackie Robinson, I reread Scandal in Spring and am halfway through Never Seduce a Scoundrel (both highly recommended unless you're like, 12 and/or have too much self-respect for that sort of thing). Also, I tripped up an escalator -- which: AWESOME -- on my way to see Tropic Thunder with David (also highly recommended unless you're 12, not because you wouldn't enjoy it, but because your parents would be scarred by watching certain parts of the film with you), which was totally worth the bruising if only for the scene where Jack Black is tied to a tree or Satan's Alley. Don't ask. Just go see it.

But the actual reason I'm writing this entry is because my next door neighbors are taking their parrot for walks again and it keeps making leering noises at all the people on the street, and honestly, how often do you get to type the words: "taking their parrot for walks?"
