So my cousin Donna convinced my mother and sister to take a day bus trip to New York City. They hit Times Square, Madame Tussaud's, saw the site of the World Trade Center, and she called while they were eating in Little Italy before they went back home. I don't know that my mother's ever been to NYC before. Wow. I'm glad she's getting out, and it sounds like she had a good time.

Stopped off at coffee before heading to Van Helsing. For some reason Yudi decided to go study at Urban Grind instead. Such an odd boy. Afterwards I met up with Stuart for the movie, but Myke and John had already gone in, and we ended up having to go to the second theater showing it at the same time. It was a lot of fun - I especially liked the conceptualization of Frankenstein's monster. Lots of references (intentional and otherwise) to Batman, X-Men, Pirates of the Caribbean, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and James Bond. Everyone seemed to enjoy it. Afterwards we met up with Tom and got dinner at Uno's.

Talked to Q, watching Superfag at the moment, and will probably just fiddle around online until I head to bed. Maybe tomorrow I can get something accomplished. (Then again, maybe not...)
