1. Yesterday I went with 
barsine, her beau and our friend J-Gu to the opening party of Save the Robots, one of the greatest exhibitions ever - wooden robots! Dancing robots! The famous mechanical shitting duck! First I thought that my favourites were the wooden automatons, and then I discovered the robot disco where the robots performed synchronised dance moves. All that, and there was great food, and little robot puppies and kittens wandered about the party. Fabulous stuff, and a credit to barsine's sister, who was closely involved in the exhibitions production.
2. The weather is still gorgeous! Hurrah for midsummer! I wish our garden furniture had a table (it's a wooden two chair job with a table fixed between them, but you can't lean on the table and write on it), because thanks to the magic of wireless, I could work outside if I had anything to lean on. Perhaps a boring, middle-aged-style trip to the gardening centre is in order, so I can get a table and a big garden umbrella thing and work outside in the sun like a fancy person.
3. I saw Batman Begins last week, and really liked it, even though it didn't credit Frank Miller for all the bits it lifted straight out of Batman: Year One. Also, it was scary. And Cillian Murphy (leedy's Celebrity Fan!) is hot, even when being evil.

I think I feel like the only person on the planet who didn't really like Batman very much. I like my superheroes camp and kitschy, not scary like that.
You guys are brilliant.
This would be for an instalment that would come out about ten years after everyone thought the films were finished. It'd be called, "Cherubim: Never Say Amen."
It would star me and Cillian Murphy. We'd spend the whole film kissing.
And yes, I'm surprised poor Cillian survived in Hollywood without me, poor boy.
I was all, "Holy SHIT YOU ARE FUCKING HOTTTTTTTT!" and then it was all, "Oh, crap, you're also famous, which means I don't stand a bleedin' chance." And this was before he was properly famous. I really should have chased him and tackled him and, I dunno, said hello.
There are actually no other celebrities that make me swoon.
Actually, a friend of mine met him when he was doing a play at the Gate, and apparently he is very nice. And also devoted to his long-time girlfriend (possibly now wife)!
