Hero, Ride or two, & other upcoming plans

Went grocery shopping this afternoon. Got ~$200 of stuff for ~$150. (You know it's going to be a big trip when you start by making a shopping list of what you -don't- need, because it's shorter.)

Saw Hero with Nathan @ Springfield Mall in the evening. Very very pretty. Nice use of color. Very nice sword fights, among other fighting forms. Good story.

And then, a Chinese couple behind us asked us what we thought of it, if we understood it, and when Nathan answered in the tentative affirmative, she asked him to explain his take on it! (Pay close attention, there could be a quiz!) Weird.

Tomorrow, I go meet some SCRC riders in Leesburg for a "sport ride" (though more than half the attendees are on cruisers) in Loudoun. Sunday, I might join some SCRCFX folks in Manassas to head out on some ride into places in MD I've never heard of, featuring covered bridges and funnel cake. :)

At some point, I might see AVP with Nathan. At some other point, I might hang out with [livejournal.com profile] macguyver. :)

Monday, no plans. Might go to the special night at Alchemy to see Faith and the Muse, and The Groaning.

Tuesday, first day at work at ADIC. Meet Rob at the local office around 08, and accompany him on a service call in Rockville.

Hehe!

Well, I don't think I would've wanted a passenger today--it took a lot of speed and cornering to keep up with the group! :D
