allana# We saw Batman Begins this morning. It was fabulous! I take back all my reservations about Christian Bale being too... slight... to play Batman. He has The Voice too!
# I bought The Starter Marriage by Kate Harrison yesterday. It's my second attempt at enjoying chick-lit and so far it's going very well. I'm quite surprised. I think the difference between this book and others that I've tried is the characters. So far they're all well drawn and likeable. And they feel real! Plus, I've been reading Kate's blog for a little while and like her :) I suspect that helps.
# Upgraded to a paid LJ. Mmmm... icon goodness.
# I'm beta-ing some excellent fic, which is making me want to tackle my own reluctant!fic.
# Buying whisky with Dave is amusing. Choosing a bottle based on pretty packaging and price was a shock to my system. Still, at least he didn't succumb to the lure of the revolting Highland Park (it has a decidedly seaweed influenced taste and smell). Despite it's pretty box. A Scot shouldn't be subjected to such trauma! Still, could be worse... we could have been buying rum.
