Utterly exhausted...

alexpgpI got up early, as usual, and put in a few hours on my presentation before going to the store for the rest of the day. Today was the ski area's first official day of operation, and Drew was hell-bent on being among the first on the slopes. Who am I to say no?
The presentation is coming along much slower than I anticipated, since some approaches to the subject (Cyrillic fonts and understanding encodings) do not work out so well in practice as they do initially on paper. Tomorrow, I also need to move the PowerPoint presentation from my desktop to my laptop, to make sure I don't run into any unexpected font problems (ahem).
After an indifferent dinner (pork scraps and cheese ravioli), we settled down to watch the lobotomy tube, finding a rather unusual flic on the Sundance channel called Uzumaki, a disturbing film about spirals, and one I would place in the horror genre. I lost interest in the story, though, and dozed off.
I'm still tired. Better get some rest.
Cheers...

In any event, I figured this was the Sundance Channel's bow to Halloween night, and I've got to say I found it more palatable than the ripper/shredder/slasher trash that's been broadcast seemingly endlessly on the other channels (not that I've watched it... the program listings were enough to turn me off).
