In a nutshell, here's what I've done the past few days......

Saturday 10/2: Attended the second annual Dayton Pagan Pride Day in Eastwood Park. )

Sunday 10/3: Worked the drink booth at the Ohio RenFest with [livejournal.com profile] dark_kiss_angel. Saw lots of men in kilts, as it was Highland Fling weekend. Perhaps I should get one for myself. How about a Utilikilt? Also gave [livejournal.com profile] dark_kiss_angel a ride home afterward.

Monday 10/4: Got a call from my keepers at the old job. They said things were picking up and wanted to know what I was up to so they could try to place me. I mentioned the phone interview I had on 10/1. [Added at 8:40pm: Later that evening, I had dinner at Ha Ha Pizza with the men from my I-group, and went to see What The #$*! Do We Know?! at the Little Art Theatre. Interesting movie. I recogized Chris Franke and Patrick O'Hearn music in the soundtrack. More about the movie in a future entry.]

Tuesday 10/5: My plans for the day were interrupted when I got a call from my wife who told me she was at the hospital. )

As alluded earlier....On Monday night, I saw the movie What the #$*! Do We Know?! at the Little Art Theatre in Yellow Springs, Ohio with the men from my I-Group.

The theatre was rather crowded that night. Apparently it's getting a lot of buzz. I saw old friends Rich and Rosa there, whom I knew from the local Mensa chapter. I used to work with their daughter, Marisa, so I asked how she was. (She's still out in California, unemployed.)

The movie defies the typical movie genres. The best I can do is call it an educational documentary. I'd expect to find this on PBS or TLC or the Science Channel late one night.

SPOILER ALERT: Some of my favorite scenes from the movie )
For me, the movie was one of the more thought-provoking movies I've ever seen. My mind hasn't been challenged this way by a movie since I first saw Koyaanisqatsi.

Distribution is still miniscule. It's currently making the run in art-film theatres around the world. Check the website to see when it's playing near you.
