lost weekend (now with added bookblogging)

Where did my weekend go??? It's like it disappeared into this fever dream of bad Libertines fanfiction and compulsive wikipedia-ing of eighties post-punk bands...wait, that's not like what happened, that is what happened. ;_;

Suppose the weekend isn't over. Suppose, if I am very good tomorrow, I may finish on time for a late movie at Montgomery Cinemas. I want to see The Wackness (9:35pm) and/or Brideshead, Revisited (9:30pm). emblem, uminohikari, you up for it?

In other news, last weekend I went into the city with emblem and boyfriend (also my college friend Yin and their college friend Grace) to see the Buckminister Fuller exhibit at the Whitney and the Prefabricated Housing and Dali exhibits at the MoMA, and to go clothing/books shopping around SoHo -- so maybe it's just as well that I took this weekend "off" as I can only spend money at this rate for so long before I run out.
