Message 173

I just got back from having breakfast at Heidi's Pies with Vanessa and Annie. We were a little later than usual this morning because we drove up to San Francisco so Vanessa could deliver a wedding present to her friend Dana, who is getting married on Saturday. I am going to watch Beech and Annie while Julian and Vanessa go to the wedding. I will take them down to Susan's so they can play with their cousins. Jason is in Nyack or the Starcraft weekend.

Last night I watched the DVD of a movie called reprise. I only give it one star. It was clearly a mistake to get it. It must have been recommended by a critic. It is a Norwegian film, and very artsy and psychological. The subtitles were a nuisance to read and the characters were struggling with youthful angst and clinical depression. It was a downer and a total failure in my opinion.

What a relief it is that Obama won the election. He has a lot of work ahead of him, but I feel confident that he is smart enough to know how to do the best things, so there is no point in my thinking about what he should do. I am happy to leave it all in his hands.
