The weekend wrap-up

[agt_spooky]

Hey all, happy Monday! How was everyone's weekend? Do anything fun?

On Saturday, myself and my buddy charityflint had the first of our four-week stained glass class. This time we got to pick our own pattern and colors of glass. I decided on a tulip!

It's a good size, about 8" x 10" and it took nearly three hours to cut and grind all the glass. The white areas are actually clear glass with a neat pattern that you can see when you hold it up to the light. Next week we'll use the copper tape and then we'll start soldering it the week after that. I'm excited to see how it's going to turn out!

Sunday was a slug day. I finished reading a book, made some notes on my next Enterprise story and watched two movies. One was Far East, with Connor Trinneer. It was a TV movie he made for PBS shortly before Enterprise started. That was one strange movie. Connor was, unfortunately, the co-star and I hated the actual star of the movie after about 10 minutes. Connor's sub-plot (a gay naval officer being blackmailed into giving up top secret documents) was waaay more interesting, but it was so disjointed from the rest of the movie. It deserved its own movie! But Connor looked way hot in his Navy uniform. :-)

The other movie I watched was Phantom, with David Duchovny. It was out earlier this year but I missed it at the theater. It was very much like The Hunt for Red October, with a rogue Russian nuclear submarine. David plays the KGB agent that takes over the sub from the captain to start a nuclear war with the United States. It was a good movie (even though I predicted the end) but it was so weird because no one spoke with a Russian accent! WTF? So it was like Americans wearing Russian navy uniforms. That was a strange directoral/writing choice.

And now here we are, Monday again. With me being at DragonCon, this will be the first full week I've worked in two weeks. Ugh.

So what fun and exciting things did all of YOU get up to?

Totally check out Phantom. David was good and he looked good running around in a black tank top. ;-)

This looks lovely, hon!
I'm trying to catch up with everything that happened the last 3 weeks, where I was mostly without access to the internet (and survived - LOL) and being back to work really sucks *sighs*
