noxcatI finally moved my laptop off my sewing table yesterday night, so now I'm trying to figure out if I like it here. I dunno - it's foing to take some getting used to. Still not happy with the light shining DIRECTLY on the keyboard - but lighting is an easy fix.
We saw Tomb Raider on Saturday. My how the times have changed since Angelina Jolie's version - no undercurrent of sexual tension between Lara and every single man she met! Yeah, I know Tomb Raider was originally a Computer Game, and had a large following of Gamer Boiz with their inadequate social skills who'd probably never interacted with a real woman anywhere close to Jolie's 'charms', but still...nice to see a movie with a woman in the lead where it isn't constantly reminding you she's a potential bed mate. She's competent, capable, and definitely more than eye candy, and the men know it and behave accordingly.
(Sitting on this side of the room really makes it obvious to me just how much work I still need to do to turn this room into a real WORK room instead of just my 'jink' room. Seriously overwhelming.GAH!)
