Work, Donnie Darko, links

Worked 12-8:30 or so, got a lot done. Came home, had food, went to Latebra, had donuts, watched Donnie Darko. As advertised by many friends, a very good movie--even more so after the movie's completion, when one has had time to absorb the synchronicity involved in the plot--everything happens for a reason. It's creepy, mellow, disturbing, uplifting, and hilarious by turns, with a hauntingly beautiful soundtrack. (And contrary to the interpretations of the idiots who wrote the summaries at IMDb, it's not a giant rabbit!)

Tomorrow, work at noon again. :)
