"Ding Dong, the King Is Dead!"
Something I forgot to mention: as promised, I did start an archive LJ, but the "big fish" LJ I thought I had somewhere appears to no longer exist -- my apologies -- or else, isn't truly a LJ, which, knowing me, is entirely possible. So, I have started kmlsarchives, which will now hold my writings as I publish them. At the moment, there are only a couple poems on there for my poetry book (a collection of things, some of which are "fanworks", much as you can say they are, as they are original pieces) but I shall post my fanfictions on there too, I think. That'll take a while to get up to date, but that way I won't lose anything ever again! Mwahahaha! :coughcough:
Last night, my family had gone shopping, apparently, and I now have some new movies, among them, Igor, which I oh-so-happily watched again this morning. It is a new favourite of mine. I've always loved John Cusack very much, and he's casted along with Eddie Izzard (who is delightfully campy in this one), Molly Shannon, Jay Leno, Steve Buscemi (also a very funny character) and John Cleese. I agree that it might become a cult classic, and is now listed amongst my favourites: Titan A.E., Tim Burton's the Nightmare Before Christmas, Practical Magic, the Princess Bride, and A Knight's Tale. I still have yet to watch the Labryinth in is entirety, but I think it may very well be added to the list in not too long.
As it is, I need to do a little bit of housework before I head off to school for my end-of-the-year party at Norstar. :D It's summertime now, for me!
PS - Mr. Spruill said he greatly enjoyed my essay (see here) which made me very happy. I did think it was rather good myself, although I quite frankly wrote it in about twenty minutes. Sometimes, the muses just flow, and work with me from time to time (and if you're here, hiyo, Mr. Spruill) so I went back through it a few times, took out some inactive clauses, tossed in some colons and semicolons, for good measure. I've told my favourite teachers that, when Airship Pirates is published, I'll come by with signed copies -- they can either read it and give it back when done (i.e., borrow it) or they can purchase it, their choice. Mind, they're likely to buy it, but not many teachers have cash on them when they go to work, and this way they can also read it before wasting their money on something they don't want. Not that such an investment would be a waste, but some people read a book and pass it on, rather than collecting them like some people. :pointed look at many she knows:
Well, I shall to y'all later. Ta!
