Meh.

No Brother today. He volunteered for overtime instead. Another ladder run to grandma neighbors. Didn't get to home improvement. Maybe I'll walk over Sunday if I'm in the mood. I do have a few things to return.

Having a quiet day with the kitty. She's here on the floor behind me. Paid the property tax. Now I'll do some online bill paying for myself and decide what to do with my evening. It's only 7pm! Grrr. Well, I do have another foreign film to watch. Or something. Listened to the gubernatorial debate with one ear while eating. I had "boneless beef" and potatoes and peas/corn/carrots. Back to the debate, Arnold had some good lines. The "conversational" format was total crap. Angelides rambled. Arnold didn't want to interrupt. The moderator guy was beyond useless.

Folks who are ahead in the polls generally only have to avoid mistakes in debates. I think Arnold did that.

I watched the seemingly very long "C.R.A.Z.Y" (French-Canadian film) last evening. It's only 2 hrs but felt long. Length may have been enhanced by reading subtitles. That could be the longest subtitled film I've watched, at least recently. Some of the bits could've been axed to tighten it up to be more Hollywood. It's a good bit of filmmaking overall. Being set in the 70's is a bit of a hoot. I could have done without two or three (or more) scenes of the father singing.
