Yesterday was a very nice, very quiet Xmas Day for me. I spent a lot of time reading — books, old journals, etc. — and really reconnecting with myself. I dunno, something about Xmas resonated with me this year to get back to my roots and refocus my energies. I spent some time with old books of mine that explain and reminded me of traditional Pagan Yule celebrations … ’twas a very nice day, I must say.

Last night, I met up with my friends David, Adriana and Etay for a showing of Sherlock Holmes:

I am SO happy to report that I loved the film. I fear that staunch Holmes fans (of the novels by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle) may not take too kindly to the “modern” feel of the movie but I loved it entirely. Robert Downey, Jr. is a delight to watch on screen and his interplay with Jude Law as Dr. John Watson is so fun. To be honest, it’s hard NOT to see the manlove between these two characters … and the chemistry between RDJ and Jude does much to fortify that love. The story is really good and the direction, I must confess, wasn’t half bad. The only think I didn’t really care for was how Rachel McAdams‘s character Irene Adler was shoved into the storyline. She was fine as Adler but the character just felt imposed upon the story. There is a lot of action, lots of fast pace and great acting. Also, watch closely for a quick cameo by Guy Ritchie and Madonna‘s eldest son Rocco John. Everyone in our party really enjoyed ourselves immensely. I think you will either love this film or hate it … I am deffo on the love side :)

I have to give a shout-out to Pink reader Jennifer who, as luck would have it, I was seated next to at the movies. It was my pleasure meeting you … and btw, she loved the film too :)

I’m gonna get in some more reading today … I’ve been on a roll and I’ve been LOVING it. David arrives tomorrow morning so I’m excited for his return home. Happy Boxing and First Day of Kwanzaa, y’all!!
