Yesterday was interesting. I had lunch with Sooki in town did general work on sites, visuals and installing my new burner (grin). Ran into Southern Cross Country owner and family on my way into town. Phone calls from uni about their website. Made the day somewhat full on. The interesting bit happened in the afternoon.
Sooki can home at 5:30pm and didn’t notice anything strange around the house. I left to goto hardly normal to get a refund on some dvd-r’s I brought and where subsequently told don’t use with my burner, and my car doors where unlocked. I thought to myself, how long have they been unlocked for since I hadn’t drove my car in 2 days. With closer inspection I noticed the glove box open and my ashtray out with the garbage all over the car floor. I realized my car had been broken into. Sorta strange, I did a check for anything missing or damage, etc. Nothing I could pick, but maybe my parents house keys (no name on them) where taken. I wasn’t even that phased about it. I suppose that it was going to happen sometime. I then drove to get the refund, came home picked Sooki up and went shopping for tea.
Later I rang Dad to tell him about it and he told me to report it to the police just so they know. I did that and they sent a Constable Hartman to the house about 9:20 just as Sooki, Toon and I where jumping into the car to goto the martix 3. Had a chat, he didn’t take finger prints because of the state of my unclean car. There isn’t much garbage or anything, just not washed. He put in a report and then we sped (at 50km/h) to the cinema and just made it on time (9:30 start).
Matrix was cool, still simple story but lots of cool action sequences. Overall enjoyable, the end track on the credits rocked. It once again rip of heaps of anime, old films and books, but thats cool. I feel it just another star wars for this generation. Cool effects, bugger all story and insane action sequences and fun to revisit every now and again.
