That was a fun weekend!

laramoon came over. We went to see The Dark Knight in IMAX. Thoughts on that below, but... it rocked. The movie rocked. Seeing it in IMAX with total visual and audio immersion rocked. It just rocked.
( An historic dinner )
( Superheroes at The Met: Alternately Awesomely Amazing and Amazingl Awful )
Lunch at the museum, then over to Times Square and Geek Heaven (aka Midtown Comics, which I'm ashamed to say I'd only visited once before).
And that was pretty much it. A lot of things I'd done before, but it's always new when you're with someone who never has. And it was just really good to be out and about and doing stuff with an actual in-person friend.
Tiring, though. We did a lot, and I went short on sleep to do it. So, today, I'm resting up.
In other news, I just finished "If You Could See Me Now" by Cecelia Ahern. Recc'd to me bylittlepel. It's a novel about a repressed woman and her nephew/adopted son's imaginary friend. It's fun and imaginative and hard to put down. And the author is the 26-year-old daughter of the Irish Prime Minister. She has several books out (one of which has already been made into a movie), and is one of the primary creative forces behind "Samantha Who" (TV show whose second season starts next week). And, according to the book jacket, Disney has picked up the movie rights to If You Could See Me Now. Color me impressed. Anyway... good book!
