My OCD continues to reign over me as I discover new ways to fully control my world. Besides building new shelves for our kitchen cabinets, I also set up my new universal remote this weekend. Unlike my old Sony model, which was a nightmare to program, Logitech’s interface is so much more user-friendly that it took me just minutes to do the job – far short of the 2-3 hours I had originally allotted. I’m also in the final stages of designing an album for the HK trip. Since Hallmark has discontinued the scrapbooks I usually use, I’m switching over to a digital album through Blurb. It’s taking a hellish-long time working around their clunky software interface, so I hope the end product looks good enough to make it worthwhile. Otherwise, I’ve also been watching a few Oscar winners from last year like No Country for Old Men and There Will Be Blood. Javier Bardem and Daniel Day-Lewis both put up quite an act, but sitting through both movies was just dreadfully depressing. I’ll need find some stupid comedy or mindless action flick to balance out all this pathos.
