Bushwacked
Jan. 30th, 2005 10:28 pmGeorge Bush's State of the Union speech is given a rather different spin by Chris Morris (of The Day Today and Blue Jam). His Bushwacked video amuses me and disturbs me in equal measure.
I haven't been online much this weekend, but this evening I've updated my website with everything new I've done for the past month or two. Not much really, but there are some bits and pieces: two stories and a drabble. Also did fiddlly things like embedding my recs journal on the site and updating links.
I've had a very nice weekend. We went off to London yesterday for a wander about. In Covent Garden we went into the map shop and ordered a world map of sea beds, which will come in handy if we ever go on a submarine expedition but otherwise will look nice in the downstairs hall.
I spent quite a while downstairs at Forbidden Planet and came away with two things: Here is Greenwood vol 1 and, yay! a Saiyuki Reload series companion book thingy with art and sketches and interviews in Japanese that I can't read! Still, I can stare at it. Here is Greenwood is deeply charming and silly, being the life and times in a boy's dorm.
We walked to South Kensington tube via Harvey Nichols, where they've stopped selling Demeter perfume (they saw us coming and chucked it out, I think). Bum. We plunged recklessly into Harrods-- it was a sort of living hell with Gucci handbags and also no Demeter. I think I'll give up on it in the UK and will try and order it from the US.
Work tomorrow. The ironing calls, as does my nightly installment of Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell. It's too big to take on the train, you see, so my reading is limited to bedtime.
Good night!
