Day 260

Day 260: What a fun day!  Me and The Gals (tm) toured around the 57th Street Antique Mall, which is really about ten separate antique shops all clustered together.  I really dig antique shops, especially when I find things that remind me of my childhood (no, there is no reason to purchase the classic batmobile model, but it was still cool to see it!).  MH found a great mirror, and a nice beaker (can one have too many beakers??  I ask you!), and EG found some nice decorations for her apartment.  I, tragically, was not able to find the one thing I was looking for (chandelier crystals for my vintage lamp), but a quick internet search later in the day turned them up with no worries.

Then we napped (I am learning to love a good mid-afternoon nap), and we all met up again for dinner and/or gelato at Hot Italian.  G and I got into a good discussion of the best and worst of horror films, while MH and EG talked about girl whatever.

Finally, we retired to R's apartment, to give his little fuzzy man some company (does he want to hang out with the girls, who would love nothing better than to nuzzle him?  No, he wants to sit on the back of my chair and lick my hair... *sigh*).  We all watched the most recent Sherlock Holmes, and decided that it was well-filmed and cool at moments, but the lack of explanation (until the summation) was exasperating, and you could not really tell why anyone was doing anything, most especially Holmes, The climax was good, though it drew so much from "The Final Problem" that I was having to struggle to not spoil the ending.  Reichenbach Falls, you say?  Let me think, where does that show up in the canon Holmes mythology... hmm.... think, think, think...

And it's mentioned, like, a half an hour in.

At any rate, it was a good and fun day, though I did manage to lose my cable for my portable hard-drive somewhere between R's and my apartment.  Fortunately, I can get one online for like 8 bucks, so no big.

Tomorrow, ADVENTURE!!  :)
