Stardust - see it

It's superb. "Princess Bride" meets "Nine Princes in Amber."

For extra points see it at St. Anthony Main. Such a pretty place, St. Anthony Main. I don't know why it never quite made it economically, and how that poor little underutilized theater keeps scraping along. I'd hate to see it close down, though.

Pimped my ride and rode it to work

It wasn't a very nice day for a bike ride, but I finally got the handlebars more or less the way I wanted them and the bike computer intalled, and I just wanted to try it out. I think the ride position is going to work out fine - I have about half a dozen hand positions now, which should help with the hands-falling-asleep thing. I'll need a little more time to get used to the new seat, but I think it will be very comfortable once I do.

It was fun accessorizing the bike last night. I dragged it into the dining room where the was light and music, and Richard helped me figure out the bar wrap and install the new computer. This time I decided to splurge on a wireless model, since I'm tired of wires twining all over the front of the bike, getting in the way, and breaking. I wasn't at all convinced it would work, however, and it was really exciting when it did. I got this weird Trek model that has a reverse LCD screen (grey on black) that is supposed to be easier to see in daylight. It's darn hard to see the display with indoor light, so I was apprehensive about it. But it turns out that it IS easier to read in daylight. Looks cool too. And it tells the temperature as well as the time!
