Today

[livejournal.com profile] channelpenguin is visiting for the day, so we've been all over Edinburgh.

Went to see Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, which was surprisingly good - it's written and directed by Shane Black, who wrote some fantastic action movies in the late 80s/early 90s, and then vanished from view.  He's now back, and while he's still doing an action movie, it's  very self-knowing one.  In bits it reminded me of Adaptation, only much more emotionally engaging (and more, y'know, action).  Anyway, if you're a bit of a jaded action movie fan, then I highly recommend it.  especially if you like Robert Downey Junior or Val Kilmer, both of whom put in great performances here.

Then over to see [livejournal.com profile] tisme briefly, before abandoning her to interviews and going on a walk along the Water of Leith.

Soon I'm off to Bitch, where I plan to dance a lot. With any luck both [livejournal.com profile] dapperscavenger and [livejournal.com profile] neferet will be there.   I don't dress up for these things, but [livejournal.com profile] channelpenguin is making up for both of us.
