-Water (Mehta, 2005)
-Fire (Mehta, 1996)
-Caché (Hanecke, 2005)--begun, but not finished on account of being a real snooze. We'll struggle with it later

Incomplete List of Books I Own & Have Not Read
-Wandering by Hermann Hesse
-Zero by Charles Seife
-Honor Thy Father by Gay Talese
-The Human Country by Harry Mathews
-Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man by James Joyce
-The Maltese Falcon by Dashiell Hammett (begun but not finished)
-V by Thomas Pynchon (begun, but not finished)
-Doctor Zhivago by Boris Pasternak (begun, but not finished)
-The King by Donald Bartholome (begun, but not finished)

In other news, Jessica and I went out for a special Valentine's Day dinner that didn't occur on Valentine's Day.
Really, it was just an opportunity to eat outside of our budget. And it was good. Timpone's is always good.
The Lord said so.
Jessica ordered sole à la meunière with a white macadamia crust and lobster sauce, mixed vegetables, and a pinot grigio.
I ordered an arugula and endive salad with warm goat cheese and toast, a kalamata olive pizza, and a soave.
We had crème brûlée (with all of the accent marks) and espresso for dessert.
And it was good.
Then we came home and watched Tsotsi and that was really good too.
It was all very well and good.
Also, I worked at the museum yesterday morning; as part of a new exhibit (called 'New Ideas' or something like that), there is a Macintosh 128 (circa 1984) set up. I drew a picture in MacPaint 2.0 and then printed it out on a dot matrix printer.
What a novelty.

So this is really behind the times, because I don't tend to read blogs regularly, but you should make a point of reading/finishing Portrait of the Artist. It's one of the funniest books ever, not to mention one of the best.
