Germany Photos: Intermission

August 24th, 2006 by Mike

Bloody hell, it’s been almost twelve days since I’ve posted any new photos from the Germany trip. Harrumph. I guess that’s what happens when I let myself get distracted by other things: houseguests, complete disassembly of the office/computer space to prep for painting, work, catching up with Tivo (I can’t believe I’ve gotten Liz hooked on “Eureka”, woot!), catching up on long-overdue library DVD’s (Paradise Now, Munich, and, somewhat embarassingly, Aeon Flux, which at least I didn’t have to pay for), slogging bravely through Neal Stephenson’s The Confusion, and going to Oktoberfest with [info]geoffimusprime.

Today was part one of the annual two-day company pep rally thing for this year, which, on one simple fact alone, instantly qualifies as the best so far: free beer coupons for happy hour. Hooray, beer!

I have at least rated, retouched, and sorted the remainder of the vacation photos; hopefully I’ll get around to posting them over the coming days. And then I’ll have to find something else to blog about for a while. ;-)

    I really liked “Paradise Now” - and I thought “Munich” would be a good double feature with it… but I hadn’t seen it. Was it good?

    “Munich” was excellent, and a very fitting thing to randomly get at the same time from the library reserve system as “Paradise Now”. It’s the best film Speilberg’s done in at least a decade, and probably equal to “Schindler’s List” in its importance.
