Can't take much more, girl, I'm losing control

Wandered around Big Basin today with Julian.
I'd forgotten how nice it was to be out of the city. The flash of a woodpecker's wings, the gentle gurgle of water running in a stream bed that's not made of concrete, the smell of sun-warmed evergreen...
And tonight I announced my last hosting of movie night, at least for the known future. If I'm getting home from work at eight, then I don't want to start a movie that late on a school night.
Also got to see xXx tonight. Pretty good for a Bond flick. I hope my friends will get to see xXXx in a couple of years, and xXxXx soon after that.
