I've been bitching a lot lately, in my journal. Sorry about that. I try not to be one of those people.
In GOOD news, I'm re-reading the "Lord of the Rings", and once again remember why I re-read it once a year. Every year I hem and haw about whether I want to read it again, and by the end of the first chapter I am completely re-obsessed. It really is a fantastic book, and led to equally fantastic movies. (I have a crush on Daisy Wenham.)
I also recently bought "Harry Potter Film Wizardry". I want to climb inside this book and live between the pages. It's about much more than the movies, and includes some little extra pull-outs like a copy of the Maurader's Map, a ticket to the Yule Ball, a Borgin and Burke catalog, and Umbridge's Proclamations. It even has a few tidbits about the new movie.
Have I mentioned I'm going to a midnight showing with my friend Katie? We've gone to the midnight show of every movie except #5, and that was because she was in Spain. I will definitely be wearing my Slytherin shirt, and might be carrying Snape's wand. I have a Harry Potter cookbook as well, and might have to make some special treat for while we're waiting. Yay!
Lastly, I am obsessed with
Shambling Hordes. It is a ridiculous combination of zombies and game theory. Yes, made of win.
