It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe

There's an idiot wind a' blowing.

Might as well lay my cards out on the table: I'm extremely grumpy, and have been so for several days. Even last night, surrounded by friends and supposed friends, I felt isolated and, at times, slighted. After the exuberence of Sarah's greeting, nods and waves fell flat. Not even the Wii could bring me up. Meh, I'm sure I'm just out of sorts. It'll pass. It always does.

Finally got to see Pan's Labrynith. Easily one of the most beautiful and disturbing movies I've ever seen. Not for the faint of heart, but worthwhile. I suppose such a brutal movie could have something to do with my strange mood. It's possible.

Finished series 4 of "Spooks" (aka "MI5" in the US), a brilliant British spy show. British shows typically have a much shorter "season" than American shows - usually 6-10 episodes. Now that the series is done, I have to sit and wait for series 5 (which has aired in the UK) to come to DVD. Also, I have an unabashed crush on the character Ruth.
