Sunday – 07 March 2010
Yesterday wound up being fairly lazy. After SaraRules and I did our afternoon errands, we both came home and took a nap. Okay, I tried to fall asleep on the couch – and was doing a fair job of it – when she suggested that I’d probably be more comfortable (and have a less-achy neck) if I laid down. Once again, she was right.

Post-nap, She headed off to rehearsal; I tried to figure out what I wanted to do with my evening. I started out watching DC Showcase: The Spectre. It was a short feature on the Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths DVD. It had a bit of a 70s feel, both in looks, style and music. I think that it would lend itself well to being a full-length feature… or even done as a live-action movie.

Next up was HALO: Legends. On the whole, it wasn’t bad. There were a couple of the shorts that I could have done without, but on the whole, it did a good job of portrayal the HALO universe as more than something that centers around Master Chief John-117. In particular, I enjoyed “The Duel” (which was done in a lovely watercolor-looking style), “Homecoming” and “Be Human.”

After SaraRules returned from rehearsal, we watched Monsters vs. Aliens. When an alien probe appears in San Francisco, a government-sanctioned team of monsters is dispatched to take it down. Mayhem ensues. This was fun… and a bit “cute.” There were a few groan-worthy moments, but on the whole, I found it rather enjoyable.

I think that and I may wend our way northward and check out the train show after all.

Namaste.
