I just read through the graphic novel I Never Liked You by Chester Brown. It was a pretty quick read for me, and what the New York Times described as a “troubled youth” was – for the most part – a typical nerd youth. Although the story ended on a low note and left me feeling empty and depressed, it did leave me hungry for more of his work and I’ll be checking out Louis Riel from the library as soon as I get a chance.

The obsession of the week is a blast from the past: Rubik’s Cube. I don’t actually own a Rubik’s Cube, but I’ve put one on my masterwish and kicked up its priority to I must have it.

I’m not saying that I want to play with a Rubik’s Cube more then I want to play WoW, but between calls at work I’ve been playing with a flash version. I’ve even tried to cheat, but I still have problems with the last couple of steps. I’m sure my skill would improve more quickly with the shiny plastic version.

A bunch of Browncoat’s from the Plymouth area are going to go to Concord on Friday to see Serenity. Contact me through the usual (or unusual) channels if you’re interested in going.
