bugbarbeque

Had a good, uneventful birthday, despite the laziest service I've ever experienced at a restaurant for lunch, the end of the day ended with a load of my friends coming round and playing a really convoluted CSI board game I got from an aunt, The game was pretty rubbish and we didn't have enough booze, but it just felt really good doing something dumb with a load of friends on my birthday, rather than having some big expectations about some party/night out that is never as good as you hope it will be. Also the melted chocolate and marshmallows was pretty good...

I watched Spirited away on Saturday and was blown away by it, which doesn't sound that odd until you understand that I've hated every single other anime film I've ever tried to watch. I was in a particularly mellow mood, and the music, the art and the whole feeling of the film just completely won me over, I think I was just in the right frame of mind to be wooed by something, not that I'm complaining, I'm glad it wooed me, it's great.
