So not amused

Well my lovely Rabbit had a run-in with a trailer hitch yesterday on the highway. Now to be clear, I'm fine and the damage was limited to my car. Also, to be clear the trailer hitch was not attached to anything and was simply bouncing around on the highway. Here's the damage:

From The Crystal Cave


So I've already called it into my insurance, had it appraised and now am waiting for the result of the appraisal. Ugh... Merry Christmas indeed.

Were the World Mine

I saw Were the World Mine this past Wednesday. I went in to the Kendal Square Landmark Cinema in Cambridge to see it with Jony and Dani. I was a bit worried because I have been looking forward to it so much I feared I'd be dissapointed. The wonderful thing was that it exceeded my expectations. Was it a perfect movie? No. Were there points that I could critique it? Yes. Was it greater than the sum of its parts? Completely.

The singing and music was fantastic and incredibly well done. It was uplifting and happy without being overly sappy. It was though provoking without being to cerebral. Overall it was a movie that once it got going just made you enjoy it. It was fantastical but had consequences.

Unfortunately it is no longer playing (only a one week engagement), but I recommend looking for it when it comes out on DVD in the spring/summer.
