Seven Quick Takes

1.  These quick takes sometimes aren't that quick.  I've been trying to write quick takes for the past three weeks or so, and I haven't come up with much so far.  We'll see what tonight holds.

2.  PF Chang's was a good choice for dinner tonight.  We ordered more food than we needed, but it was good food with good service and a chance to unwind after a long week.

3.  Nevada Day is a blessing and a curse.  A blessing because most people in the country don't get a holiday this time of year, when it seems desperately needed.  And a curse because it's so close to Halloween that people tend to get carried away.  With that said, I'm looking forward to a relaxing day tomorrow after a long 4-day week.

4.  Still grieving a little bit with M's family over Jason Barfield's death (see previous post).

5.  Here's something that cheered me up from a friend via Facebook: the Lorax trailer.  I watched it without sound, so I'm not sure I caught everything in it, but it looks cool.

6. I'm not sure the holiday movie season will be any good.  Sherlock Holmes 2 looks interesting, maybe, but I'm already bored with Twilight and I'm not sure what else is dropping that time of year.

7.  Hey, I made it to 7!  These takes really were quick.  And I didn't mention politics once!  OK, well here's something interesting I saw on The Daily Beast tonight.  Enjoy!
