Dec. 26th, 2015 08:12 pmChristmas went pretty well. We went for Chinese food in the middle of the day and ran into a friend of mom's in the restaurant so ate with her, then came home and watched John Huston's The Dead on DVD. I last saw it four years ago, so it was nice to see it again, but being unable to skip through the previews before the main menu was annoying. In the evening I watched the Doctor Who Christmas special, which was much better than last year's.
I didn't watch much of Russian or Japanese Nationals yesterday, due to both the streams I knew about having sound issues, but today despite ESPN3's feed still having the audio and video a second out of sync with each other I watched the second half of the pairs and the entirety of the ladies free. Not sure how I feel about the trio that ultimately triumphed, though if Anna Pogorilaya doesn't deliver at Europeans I could see them putting the third Worlds berth up for grabs at the Russian Cup final anyway. Also suspicious about the dance results, and regretful they still won't allow me to see Stepanova & Bukin in Boston.
Also went to the National Gallery to see their current exhibit on Hellenistic bronze sculpture. Some of the sculptures they had there were pretty impressive; I especially liked one of a young Eros asleep. We also wandered through the regular collection a little; they seem to have increased their American paintings lately.
