Thursday, we went to see Star Wars Episode II (Attack of the Clones). It was great. It was so much better than the Phantom Menace. They still, I think, could have done a better job editing - like, get rid of some of the sappy love scenes - but overall, it was really good. The fact that Jar Jar's part was vastly reduced could only help. Although I still wish they could have included a scene where Jar Jar was decapitated by a light saber. Maybe in Episode III...
Last night, Meredith and I watched Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. When it first came out, we heard reviews ranging from 'it sucked' to 'funniest thing I ever saw'. We'd have to rate it somewhere in the middle. Parts of it were hysterical, parts were pretty lame. It was worth watching on TV at any rate.
Godspell rehearsal was today at church. Meredith is playing piano for it; I'm 'Tech Director' (an impressive sounding title that really just means 'person who sets up some lights and microphones'). Originally, I thought today's service was in Fellowship Hall, not the sanctuary, so I wouldn't have to go. Then I realized it was in the sanctuary, and that it was from 2-5. Oops, then we noticed that it was from 1-5. Until 5 PM rolled around, and we realized that it was actually 1-6. Hmm. So, today was long. I'm now exhausted. Tomorrow is from 2-8:30, but only 6:30 on is in the sanctuary. It's still going to be a really long day for Meredith.
