So ... super fun band fundraising 20 minutes away, an anime convention an hour away, and I am within minutes of both and at neither.
The most awesomely fun of all band fundraisers, the bottle and can drive, when you get together four kids and a chaperone and go door to door for bottles and cans to trade in for the refund, and it's wicked awesomely fun.
I was at work, within two minutes by car, ten walking.
Then, there was the Anime Boston convention as well, and where was I on my not working day of the weekend?
I was at a funeral in Melrose, for a great uncle. listening to my uncle explain more than I ever cared to know about Smallville, which I don't know if I can watch anymore. In case your sense of direction is as bad as mine, Melrose is distressingly close to Boston for someone who wants to be at the convention.
So, that's my depression.
But, in all this fun, I did watch House of Flying Daggers. And it brought up lots of intellectual questions for me. The most important of which was, DID ANYONE ELSE THINK THAT THE GUY WHO PLAYED JIN NOT ONLY LOOKED LIKE, BUT ACTED LIKE ORLANDO BLOOM?
If you didn't see it, go watch it again. Especially the part where Jin and Mei are hiding from assorted armies.
