Hm - depends how you define busy, I guess.
Had something of an abortive shopping trip (I was after a pine box to put my photographs in, all I could find was a tacky looking object that probably required a staple gun to assemble it [have I mentioned how I hate flatpack furniture?]), managed to successfully half edit two and a half chapters of Shadow Games (why half edit? because the other half of the comments weren't with me, so I could only modify the comments I did have) and watched history being made by the England cricket team. (For the Australians reading this: Yes, I know we've only beating the West Indies and New Zealand this summer, but this is the longest run of unbeaten tests for England in, like, forever - please let me have this one moment; I dare say normal service will be resumed when you lot show up over here next summer...)
Then, this evening, I've been having a girlie chips-n-dip-n-baileys evening (except I skipped the baileys on account of having had to swallow a handful of ibuprofen courtesy of combined headache and back ache [not only was shopping abortive, it was also painful...]) and watching movies. Or, well, I watched ONE movie (the excellent Sliding Doors) and watched all the special features on the Bourne Identity (though I have seen the Bourne Identity already [come to that, I've seen Sliding Doors, too])...and promptly got a couple of Shadow Games-like plot bunnies. Which I can't use because they're direct cribs from the Bourne Identity (and plagiarism is a bad move). I also got some more information from the CIA advisor to The Recruit (which I can use for SG as and where required :)).
Tomorrow, my aim is to try and get as much of SG editted as possible, but as I also have Dangerous Minds (another very good film) and The Transporter (ooh - mindless and probably silly violence - yay!) to watch...so we'll see.
BTW Apart from the film of To Kill A Mocking Bird, does anyone on my f'list have any film recs? I've pretty much caught up all the films I've been meaning to see in the last ten years (!!) so I'm ready for some more. (NB It's probably not a good idea to recommend out and out comedies to me, my flat comedy setting is broken.)
