Ah, nothing like a nice two day weekend to refresh oneself and get ready for another week of toil and hardship. Seeing as I'm not sure when my next two day weekend will be, I enjoyed the heck out of this one.
The problem this week is that I'm working all evening shifts, which wouldn't bother me so much if I had a car but I walk, and while I don't have to go through the worst areas of town I still have to be wary on this little daily trek.
I was in a Princess Bride state of mind on Friday but I don't have it on DVD, so I went to buy it. Both places that carry a good selection of videos nearby were out, so I was out of luck. Instead I watched the first two Star Wars movies. I was going to watch the whole original trilogy but fell asleep, so watch the last one on Saturday. It was also later on Saturday that I remember I have The Princess Bride on VHS. Dagnabit. Sorry, but I'm so used to my DVD collection now that I tend not to think about what I have on tape. Sure it's full screen and I've become a widescreen purist, excepting of course older movies that the full screen format was based on, the pre-television films, but I wanted to watch it so I did. And I got the theme song stuck in my head pretty much ever since. Damn, that's a good song.
