he Sunday before last I twisted my ankle a bit while out trail running. After limping at first I was able to finish the rest of the run, and the following days I started to feel it high and outside on that ankle. But fortunately it was no big deal, as a couple nights on the exercise bike eased the pain away and by Sunday I was running the same trail again.

I am surprised at how good Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles is starting out. I did not expect much, but the story is fun and the show plays like a movie. Summer Glau's character looks like she stepped right out of Firefly/Serenity.

I was pleased with last night's Golden Globes. Most of the movies I did not see, so my interest was not so much in seeing my favorite movies win as reinforcing what movies I might like to see. What I liked about this year's Golden Globes was the absence of the glitz and the ceremony: no hours of red carpet, lame acceptance speeches, and preening celebrities between award announcements - just a quick hour of getting straight to the results.
