Brrrr...what a difference a day makes. Yesterday was a typically warm and sunny day; today was gray, foggy, and slightly cooler (warm enough for shorts though). In honor of the brisk and most welcome autumn preview, I've cracked out the new seasonal icon that dhamphir made for me. Thanks, dhamphirHaven't been online much in the past two weeks because I'm gearing ( Read more... )

OMG! *headdesk...stares at calendar* It's only Wednesday and in a minute it will be Thursday. I am so ready for this work week to end. *primal scream ( Read more... )

OMG, forget the giant hamster wheel I was talking about the past two holiday seasons. The moment the calendar hit December, my whole state of mind shifted to "walking zombie" status. I feel like I've been in a perpetual state of no sleep, frenzied holiday activities, and occasionally RRRAAAWWWWRRRR temperament ( Read more... )

I just got home after watching one of the late shows of Happy Feet 2. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to post today's NaBloPoMo entry, but I made it with three minutes to spare.

Happy Feet 2 is utterly adorable. I love the animation and the characters. The plot is also pretty good ( Read more... )

Erm. So, in my last entry, I was squeeing all over the place about finally getting my copy of Inheritance by Christopher Paolini. I forced myself to read the last thirty or so pages of my previous book while eating dinner. Shortly after doing my nightly bedtime routine, I finished Chris Bradford's Young Samurai: The Ring of Fire. It was just as ( Read more... )

*wipes away the dust on my LJ* Wow, haven't been here in ages. I was so furious when LJ ate my Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 review when the site was having problems. It was completely erased and I just wanted to cry when I couldn't retrieve it. Lesson learned; type everything in separate documents and then upload to LJ. *sigh ( Read more... )

O_O *deep breath* Wow, the past two weeks have been insanely crazy in both good and bad ways. I didn't mean to stay away from LJ, but this is quite literally the first patch of free time I've had to post ( Read more... )

SQUEE!!! Please pardon the capslock and excessive use of exclamation points, but I'm so excited. I just received an email alert, and tickets for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II are now available for sale in my area. I just purchased IMAX tickets for the Friday* midnight showing in Dublin. I didn't think I would want to go to another ( Read more... )

*exhausted sigh* Today was just so busy and filled with scream-worthy vexing moments. It just feels so good to sit here out on my front porch, enjoying the cool night air. Simple pleasures. Random musings about today ( Read more... )

*goggles at the previous post* Wow, I should carefully read my entries before posting them to my LJ when I'm sick. My fingers are itching to fix the ridiculous typos ("thing" instead of "think" is particularly egregious), but I think I will leave them to serve as a reminder to be more careful ( Read more... )
