Went to the premiere of the new Avengers movie yesterday, with a bunch of friends.

Mr. Whedon served up two hours of unadultered nerdy awesomeness even I as non-comic nerd could heartily enjoy.

• Special effects really have come a long long way (although I could have done without 3D, I am an old-fashioned lady after all).
• Great punch lines :) (and punches)
• Lots of main characters, and still everybody got their proper share of screen time and character introduction (necessary for viewers without the knowledge from reading the Marvel comics)
• HUGE machines
• Scarlett Johansson and Robert Downey Jr. :)

Good friday that is – productive meeting (they really exist, but they are eluuusive) at project partner’s office outside of the big city, and soon going to a Vivaldi concert at 6 (a very cool Christmas present), wheee!

And good Thursday too: yesterday’s shopping spree result: a cute bag. Kaywinnet Lee Frye totally would wear that one!

Tiiiired…

But want to write a few words before I finally can fall asleep: on Thursday Soma and I made a contribution to a friend’s birthday present, a collection of recreations of movie stills. Gimp ftw!

Yesterday Jinxx and Lemmi married, it was a wonderful day with sun and a happy couple. Our little decoration team spent two busy hours decorating the guest/dinner/cake area, and I think people liked the result.

Today: did some shopping with my trustworthy styling manager Soma and found an awesome and huge neck-arm-jewellery – erm – thingamy.
Oh, and I am proud of myself for cooking lots of stuff and freezing parts of it to take to work for lunch (since the cafeteria does not offer lots of stuff for vegetarians, and also I simply refuse to eat stuff I could do better myself).

Tomorrow: attending the City Marathon, but thankfully only the 5 km part of our relay team, since it will be cold, windy and rainy. And in the evening a Loreena McKennitt concert – with plush chairing *whee*
