Sometimes I feel like as soon as I start to get things off my list of things to do, people just come up with more things to ask for. But whatever I guess, they'll get done as time permits.

Saturday was getting up too early and going to the Bethel Football game at Concordia. I wasn't driving though, so I got to just relax in the car. Got breakfast and dinner for free too. Didn't get many good pictures, although maybe I'll look into cropping and posting some of them. On the way back the team and everyone stopped at some parents' house for deserts and stuff which was fun. Then I put in my headphones so I couldn't hear anyone else and slept for most of the rest of the way home. I still think it's odd I wake up every time we get to the exit coming back down 94. Doesn't happen on any other exit, but it seems to happen about there every time. Pretty much just enough time before getting to my parents' house to get everything ready to just get out car (at least for me, everyone else seems to spend 10 minutes getting out). At least I got a decent amount of sleep.

Sunday was Salem as usual, although the service was a bit different than usual. And I was really tired. Odd how that happens when you get a lot more sleep than usual. Got home and my brother wanted to watch the Vikings so that was on for a bit. They had something funky going on with the audio today though. It'd jump to what seemed like a different feed and the audio would repeat like a second or so but souding like it came from different microphones. Really odd. After that sat around for a bit and eventually watched Saved!. It's a sorta funny movie, but I think most of the good parts were in the trailer (what else is new these days). They seemed to do a pretty decent job of reflecting reality, but watching the deleted scenes and bloopers explains a lot about why things happened the way they did. It also seems they did a bit of rewriting between takes. The most annoying technical thing was probably what looked like an issue with the telecine - the objects in the frame would move a bit relative to the entire frame. It almost seemed to be an issue with audio vibration messing up frame alignment in places causing it to be pushed to one side or the other every other frame. It seems odd they'd have it playing where it could have an effect, maybe just only noticed it more there (which would make sense given how the soundtrack had more bass in long slow shots than in quicker shots with more motion). Anyways, worth seeing at least once. After that watched Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. That's a good movie, although there were things they probably could have left out or find better things to put in where they needed to break up the memories. It was almost like they were trying to push the fact there were issues with the process, but they don't really go that way and then show how well it's worked otherwise. It did seem like they did a bit too much tying up at the end and flashing back to the beginning. Like the knocking on the car window thing. That's what annoys me about most movies that have jumps like this one. But whatever, still a good one to see.
