Met up with an old friend two days ago for dinner. She and her husband are both doing very well right now, which is awesome to see. They're both very much buried under their work, which is a shame, buy they're out there helping people, which is amazing.

I went to Feast last week. It was the first time I met back up with the Baha'is here since the election. They're an okay group and I'm glad I'm in touch with them. There's also a Presbyterian Church nearby that I keep in wanting to go to, but I can't seem to get a Sunday off to save my life. I've emailed the pastor once, who has an open door policy, and I'd love to sit down and chat with him. I think when I get my work schedule for next week, I'm gonna see if I can't make an appointment to stop by and say hello.

Watched Cloverfield last night to get my mind off of things. I'm kind of torn on that movie. On the one hand, it does a very good job on showing a grounds eye view of what a Kaiju event might be like. On the other hand, its brisk pace seems very flawed. There were a few scenes where an extra minute here or there would have helped the pacing a bit and I still think Marlena's getting bitten and the results of her bite happen way too quickly. It's still a good film overall, but it feels more like a 60 minuteovie than a 90 minute movie.

My dog is amazing. Just throwing that out there.
