We got out of town over the weekend, and at long last I got to see Kill Bill, volume 2. I enjoyed it tremendously, with a few hitches: all the scenes involving The Bride training with Master Pei Mei were subtitled only in two Nordic languages -- neither of which I read. So I missed out on about 15-20 minutes' worth of stuff. I was also a little bummed not to get more backstory on some of the characters, after we had learned so much about O-ren Ishii in volume 1. Well, I guess I'll have to wait for the Director's Cut DVD.
I also made a five-hour roadtrip, in the backseat, without losing my lunch or having any bathroom crises. This is a major accomplishment for me as we move into Month Five. I'll take my small victories where I can.
