    I Am Back

    Hey everyone. I'm sorry for being so quiet these past few days, but Internet connections were pretty crappy at both the hotel and at the convention, so I figured I'd just save the big response for when I finally got home and unpacked.

    My First Convention

    I'd been meaning to put this up earlier, but well, better late than never.

    Tomorrow and through Sunday, I'll be out of town - my dad and I are going to a convention over in Beckley. Dad's going to be vending a table there to try and sell some books.

    Thoughts on Harakiri (1962)

    Wow. This was a masterclass in buildup and tension. I knew about Masaki Kobayashi's movie before - a scathing indictment of the samurai and the honor code that they profess to live by - but all the same, watching the movie had me hooked from start to finish. :scootangel:

    Thoughts on Galaxy Quest

    Finally getting around to writing up my thoughts on this one. I had heard plenty of good things about it from my parents, though I had yet to see it. Finally, we rung in the new year by watching "Galaxy Quest" with dinner.

Halloween Has Come Again · 1:16am Nov 1st, 2021

Can't say too much in some ways. Today was a bit of a busy one for me.

Trick-or-treating is always a pretty busy occasion for my house. We live right on the main street in town, and for the past few years our house has been smack in the middle of various Halloween gatherings around the neighborhood, so we often get a steady stream of kids coming and going on the 31st.

Today was no exception. In fact it may well have been even busier, as we ran out of candy (after I ran uptown to make one last mad scramble to restock XD) a half-hour before the official closing time.

Right now, I'm just enjoying taking it easy with the old laptop, and making tentative plans for the next big holidays around the corner.

Hope y'all are staying safe out there. :twilightsmile:

Glad you're taking it easy. :scootangel:

It being busy might be a good thing. That means Halloween could be recovering from the pandemic.

So am I, honestly. :yay:

That's a fair enough observation, for sure. One can only hope, I reckon :twilightsmile:
