Watched Veronica Guerin over lunch today. Good movie. It was a little hard, since I knew her fate going in (and even if I hadn't, the film opens with it), but I'm glad I finally got around to it. I bought the film used about 2 years ago, and I kept meaning to watch it, but I was never in quite the right mood. I kind of hate it when I watch a movie ( Read more... )

My mom says they got 13 inches where we live in Baltimore County. She's supposed to work today, but she ventured outside only as far as necessary to clean the snow off the satellite dishes and then she called out from work. Heh. I love my mom ( Read more... )

Though it pained me to do it, I've added additional lines from the as yet unguessed 7 songs that remain in the lyrics meme from a couple days ago. It's not that I'm judging those of you who haven't gotten a single one, as much as it is...that I'm judging those of you who haven't gotten a single one. Look, what can I say? As Alanis once sang - we ( Read more... )

+ Yeah, I now have no fewer than 5 Oswalt icons among my userpics. Moose is in the corner of my harem, looking much offended and muttering about a little thing called seniority and being first in time. I'm sorry, baby. I'm sure it'll pass, but for right now, I'm all about #44. And his ears. He somehow balances adorkable with "I will beat you ( Read more... )

Congrats to the NL Champion Houston Astros! I'm glad I came over to Christine's for the game, we had a fun time, and she saw my awesome homerun calling power in action. (I totally called Lane's homerun, kids. PHEER ME ( Read more... )

+ Girardi is the new Marlins skipper. Huh. Kinda cool that. 'Cause he's rather young, and stuff. Hopefully he works out better for them than Mazzilli did us.

+ I'll be watching Game VI tonight with sensefille, and I'll be glad for the company. I'm so nervous/excited and I don't even have a dog in this fight. Drama, drama, drama.

+ offspeed is gonna get me ( Read more... )

+ Joe Torre is such a glutton for punishment. I wonder if he talked to Jeter and DJ was like For the love of Christ, please do not leave me alone to handle this clusterfuck of a team. Such a glutton for punishment. There are also rumors that Cashman could still stay. So all that hullabaloo over nothing ( Read more... )

Wow, all late, yay on the Cards pulling that one out. I fell asleep in the 8th, because I am seriously the oldest 24 year old ON THE PLANET. And of course, my videotape ran out a batter into the ninth inning. Thank goodness for MLB.TV. Now Mulder gets a second chance for his first LCS win and I get to watch Roy Oswalt be a cool motherfucker ( Read more... )

So, I really shouldn't watch the game, I have a lot of stuff to do :-/ But I'll be rooting for rickenbacker's boys again, for all the good it did them last night. Partly for her, but mostly because yeah, I need baseball to not gear up to leave me so fast.

Neat bit of randomness from Jack Curry's piece on the Sox win:

Maybe numerology favors them. Guess ( Read more... )

I wouldn't know whether to blow him or kick him in the 'nads at this point. STOP SCARING THE SHIT OUT OF PEOPLE, yo.

That was a really good game. I was rooting for your boys, rickenbacker, I really was. I'm not much good at it though. I think I cursed out Grudzie a couple times. Insane strike zone, everyone was pissed off, promising innings kept ending ( Read more... )
