I had a nice long weekend. Yesterday I spent time with Alison, which was nice as we don't get to spend time together often enough. We watched "Princess Mononoke". I really enjoyed it, but didn't think it was that much better than Spirited Away. Maybe it's the fact that it has a boy lead

i found princess mononoke to be a impressive-looking anime but the story was rather convoluted. especially when you compare it to nausicaa of the valley of the wind, which was told by miyazake like 10 years earlier but better. i watched that on the weekend and its the best - highly recommended.

there aren't many ghibli films with boy leads, the only other one is laputa - castle in the sky which is more action/adventure.

Alison's sister bought Nausicaa the other day, so we're waiting to borrow it.
I really like the fact that the ghibli films have female leads. They make interesting characters that way.

Who was the worship service for? ;)

It's good to hear people connected with your legs instead of Jesus.
