When I saw Guy Pearce in the first few minutes of The Hurt Locker, I figured the movie would be about him. Then his character was summarily killed off. It got 97% on rotten tomatoes. That was almost all I knew about the film aside that it was an Iraqi War flick. I liked it as a film, although I didn’t entirely like watching it. I’m glad I saw it.

The rain is coming down in buckets.

My best friend from my uni years is coming out To Australia for a visit on Wednesday. I have some activities planned:

• Manly Ferry and a swim at Manly Beach
• Sydney Aquarium and Darling Harbour
• Blue Mountains, maybe the Zig Zag Railway, but definitely a stop at the Paragon
• Day at Terrigal to see the skillion and a swim.
• The Snake Pit
• Bridge Climb

...but the actual schedule will depend on the weather and how cooperative it decides to be.
