I'm not 100% sure it's accurate to say 'happy' Veterans Day, but thank you all for your service! I have many, many relatives who are currently in the armed forces, or veterans of various branches, so it's never been far from my life.

As I type, we're watching the best part of Lord of the Rings, aka the part with Galadriel. :D

Well, I'm sad that we're not going to get any snow here (WHERE IS MY WINTER, MASSACHUSETTS?) so here are some funny pictures from my Pinterest. Enjoy.

Disclaimer: There is some interesting language under here. And I fucking love Thranduil.

Andrew and I went to see The Hobbit 3: Battle of the Five Penis Sizes this weekend, and though there are many things I could say about it, I will try to keep my remarks short.

( And bullet pointed, as usual )

All right, so it's been a while since I saw The Hobbit: The Desolation of Sherlock Cumberbatch, but we were having a semi-snow day at work when I wrote this and I am BORED.

Alas, the October meme is over, and now I don't have anything to fall back on when life is boring and I have no stories to tell.

Oh, well, now Andrew and I are about to watch The Hobbit, so maybe I'll update this post in a couple of hours with my impressions... I mean, I hated that book, but I was young, and I really do like the LotR movies. Oh ( Read more... )

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LETSGOKOMETS!!! As a birthday present, and as mentioned on your LJ, here are my answers to the letter meme that I agreed to do... In January. Oh well, better late than never.

Comment saying you want a letter, and then after I give you one, write about ten things you like which start with that letter.

 So I'm watching this movie right now, I think it's called Flight of the Phoenix... It really doesn't matter. I started watching it for three reasons.

1. Dennis Quaid. He's so rugged and tough. And dirty. And sweaty. Rawr.
2. Hugh Laurie. With his full on British accent. YAY! Hey hey hey! He also speaks Mongolian!
3. Eowyn. Yeah, I'm sure the actress ( Read more... )

Oh casting department of this random Hercules movie I'm watching... Way to totally cast people cause they're pretty, and not because they can act. (This is actually a disturbingly popular trend, and not just in made for TV movies...)

So why am I watching this? Well, because I like watching teh pretty. I'm not gonna lie.  Also, Sean Astin is in it ( ( Read more... )

My loft is gone. My bed is now on the ground. It's sad, and my room looks really open and sort of empty now, but it's also nice to be able to sit on my bed and watch tv or just chill without climbing.

Speaking of which, Abby and I watched The Two Towers from my bed today, after watching The Fellowship of the Ring yesterday. After having her pause ( Read more... )
