Harry Potter

Julianne and I went to see Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets tonight at Silver City. It was good (probably better than the first), but (maybe because I was a little used to the world) didn’t seem to have the same sense of awe and wonder in it that the first had. Better acting and f/x, though. Kenneth Branaugh (sp?) wasn’t at his best, but it was a surprise to see him in it to begin with. I’m looking forward to the third movie, but it’s not going to be the same with a different actor as Dumbledore (sp?).

Almost There

All the templates are up and built. I’m still of the opinion that the search and comment templates aren’t what they could (or should) be, but I don’t know enough about Movable Type‘s proprietary tags (are they proprietary?) to mess with them further at this point. After the holidays I’ll take another look. For now it’s enough that they work. I’m going to Julianne’s in the morning. The trip is eight hours via Greyhound, but I don’t mind. I’ll get some sleep, and maybe get some reading done. Speaking of reading, I recently finished a project on Nabokov’s Lolita for my Contemporary American Literature class. It’s a little rough around the edges, but have fun with it anyway. And as always, Wooden Fish is still accepting submissions for our second issue.
