Sundays are always so weird

I'm trying to get myself moving so that I can go to Borders and use my gift card and purchase SOMETHING. Which is likely to be a movie because I've gotten a lot of books lately. Or a movie and a book. I wonder if they have But I'm a Cheerleader. Don't laugh, I really like that movie. It's cute, funny, over the top, and handles things quite well. Besides, the cinematography is clever.

Maybe they'll have the next volume of Fables that I want. I'll admit that I rather like Snow White in this, but then, I can understand her attitude a bit better than some. XD

Well, at least for now I was linked to this awesome comic. I always thought Gordon was ten flavors of awesome, and that's going off of the cheesy Batman TV show (which I watched, actually. I also thought Catwoman was pretty cool there). I fell away from the franchise after seeing Batman Returns because I was eight and it scared the living daylights out of me. The Penguin is still the hardest villain for me to watch/read about. He just freaked me out so much when I was a kid. I know, I should have read the comics, but I wasn't allowed them. So cheesy shows it was.

Anyway, time to have some coffee and wander the stacks.

P.S. My grandpa (my last remaining grandparent) has a girlfriend. My dad is slightly weirded out by this (as that's his dad). Apparently she's as talkative and charismatic as he is. I'm amused and will tease him mercilessly the next time I talk to him.

Forget about the comics the Batman: The Animated series cartoons and Batman Beyond were both so freaking awesome. Maybe this is simply my childhood talking but there are some of the most interesting take of the tragic villain archetype ever showing were in the Batman: The Animated series. They portrayed as wrong and evil but you could feel sympathy for them. Some of them, there was also the most awesome Joker ever who was clearly ever and Harley Quinn. Batman Beyond has cyber punk at a rating level I could actual watch and old Bruce is probably my favorite bitter old man mentors ever. In the opening he actual considers letting Terry (the kid who stole the bat suit) die. Then there is ace the bat dog.

Congratulations for your grandfather and have fun yourself.
