drlambert.livejournal.comExpecting a slow evening like the ones preceeding, Natalie sat at the front desk, laptop open, and The Thin Man playing. She wasn't paying it that much attention -- she'd seen it a dozen times before -- but having it on DVD was a nice change. Would have been better in widescreen, she thought, but she would take what she could get. Beside the laptop was another stack of DVDs, an insulated stainless steel mug, and two notebooks. She busily scribbled in a third as, on screen, Nick Charles took aim at the Christmas ornaments with a BB pistol.
