Out of Cheese

I saw Wordplay tonight. Very, very, very cool. Anyone who’s into puzzles at all has to see it.

It reminded me that I’d love to do more crossword puzzles. They’re tons of fun and they’re the kind of thing where the more often I do them the better I get, but I’ve gotten out of practice in recent years. Maybe I’ll sign up for the New York Times’ Premium Crosswords; we’ll see.

One of the best things about the movie was the soundtrack. Many of the songs were ones for which I know that I’ll smile every time I hear them. The trick is hearing them again — I can’t find the soundtrack anywhere. I wonder when it’ll be out….

I was talking to someone a couple days ago who mentioned that she keeps a diary, which reminded me that I’d always sort of thought about having one. Not so much for the diar-ish aspects per se, but more that I’d like to write on a regular basis. Then I remembered that that was one of my goals for my weblog at first (and perhaps the only real goal ever) — to write more often, regardless of who might be interested.

With that in mind, perhaps I’ll ramble on a bit more here than I’ve been doing lately. It might not be interesting to anyone other than me, but we’ll see.
