Kristy and I connected up with our friend Holly for Dublin Culture Night on Friday.  It's a brilliant way to promote the art, history and other cultural highlights of the city.  CLICK HERE to read about our time over at The Dublin Expat Experience blog.

Also, this afternoon, Sheryl McElwee threw a surprise baby shower for Kristy.  She'd been planning it all week and I had several "undercover" phone conversations with her over the last few days.  As far as Kristy knew, we were going over to the McElwees' for coffee and hang-time. 

We just recently decided I won't be going to Greenbelt this year, due to Kristy being only 5 or 6 weeks away from giving birth.  Unusual Suspects is one reason (of many) I'd love to be there.  Over the Rhine is yet another. 

Speaking of festivals, here's a little review of the "Festival of Faith & Music" that I blogged about a few months back.  Some very deep thoughts from Sufjan there.

Over the weekend, Kristy and I watched the film, "Stranger than Fiction."  Very cool film.  Probably wouldn't win any awards, necessarily, but it's lightly thought-provoking and intelligent yet a lot of fun at the same time.  Will FerrellTony Hale is also becoming one of my favourites, since Arrested Development.  and "fun" just sorta go together it seems, even though this is a bit of a different role for him. 

MK12 is a graphic design studio in Kansas City that the makers of the film used.  If you're in to graphic design at all, you must have a look at their website.

It's been a lot of fun hooking up with old friends here on MySpace.  I think it's going to be good for that kind of thing.  However, if you really want to check out what Kristy and I are up to and what I'm chewing on these days, you'll need to visit the REAL blog.  =)  We've also got a FLICKR page where you can see pics. 
Gotta love Web 2.0!
