Seen & Heard
Two days ago, I ran into Joss Whedon (almost quite literally) at the Whole Foods in Brentwood. This makes twice that I've seen him and utterly failed to have the courage to say anything.
Yesterday, I met![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
mciac for lunch and shopping, and with some borrowed courage, applied for a job at Barnes & Noble. I really, really want this job. Light a candle, say a prayer, do a voodoo ritual for me...
Capped off the day by going to see Howl's Moving Castle at the El Capitan. (Yes, I know: "el" means "the." But that's the name of the theater! Saying otherwise would be weird.) It was terrific. I think I liked Spirited Away more, perhaps because the mythos was more exotic to me, but Miyazaki + Diana Wynne Jones? Fab combination.
And why has it been so long since I've read any Diana Wynne Jones? Not to mention: E. Nesbit or Edward Eager. I miss my childhood!
Though not so much that the dream I had last night in which I had to move back into my childhood home didn't totally freak me out...

no subject
Though I understand your bitterness, re: Howl's Moving Castle. I was still living in Vermont when Princess Mononoke came out, and it never came to the entire state. NEVER. I'm still angry.
