Okay so I did my "real" web page. The one with all the photos and several people have commented on this photo (please ignore the mess in the background).... which I took of myself, for my hubby.




Yes I am huge. Yes I am pregnant. Yes I still have 3 months to go. Yes it is amazing I can still stand and walk (I think without a waddle but as I don't watch myself it is hard to say).

So I saw this article and thought it was pertinent.

Other things that interest me...Star Wars, Harry Potter and people obsession to dissect/discuss what should be a done deal. According to an article on The Leaky Cauldron. org someone at StarWars.com took the time to come up with 10 similarities between HP and SW . The thing is OF COURSE they have things in common if you know anything about either one, you know the creators were BIG classic myth people. The number of times each has been dissected and found to be a copy of this or that myth cut and pasted together is innumerable. But whatever, here they are 
  • 10. “Orphaned by a Dark Lord” Luke Skywalker and Harry Potter both grew up wistfully curious about the parents they never knew.

  • 9.”Relative Obscurity”As children, both Harry Potter and Luke Skywalker lived under the hidden protection of an aunt and uncle, longing for a better life.

  • 8.”V” for Villain The main villains of the Star Wars and Harry Potter universes often change their names, personalities and even appearances upon turning to the dark side.

  • 7 “Who Wants to Live Forever?”The Emperor and Voldemort were both obsessed with immortality, eventually returning from death to continue their quest for eternal life and unlimited power.

  • 6. “Romancing the Stars”Luke Skywalker and Harry Potter both had a male friend and female friend who initially annoyed each other and bickered often, but ultimately fell in love and got married after hiding their true feelings for years.

  • 5. “Dead Mentors, Dementors and Frozen Friends”Being associated with either Luke Skywalker or Harry Potter can be hazardous-both had teachers who were murdered, both had friends who were frozen by the enemy and both had family members who were caught in the crossfire

  • 4.”Like Father, Like Son”Harry Potter and Luke Skywalker, like their fathers before them, were both gifted pilots who displayed special talents long before they knew of their hidden abilities.

  • 3.”Love Hurts”Both Luke Skywalker and Harry Potter suffered a string of physical injuries that left them permanently scarred.

  • 2. “Size Matters Not”Star Wars and Harry Potter both featured a wide variety of height-challenged characters and species-and Warwick Davis portrayed many of them.

  • 1. “Your Father Wanted You to Have This”Harry Potter and Luke Skywalker both received mystical heirlooms left behind by their late fathers, presented to them by elderly mentors.

    Personally I think they should be bitching about the random HP DVD box set with extra stuff that you can't get elsewhere. Cause if you are a fan you own 1-4 on DVD already and only want 5.  So WTF. I mean we all know they are going to make 6 and 7 so that is when to buy the box set if you wanted it. Money grubbers!

    On every other front things are crazy/fine/broke. There are so many things I want to buy and can't. Most are cool but oh so useless like this http://www.sharperimage.com/us/en/catalog/product/sku__CN615 Which I just think is too cool and would NEVER EVER probably even figure out how to use let alone use enough to warrent the price tag. And of course the 6 pages of crap on my amazon wish list. So the fact I have no money is probably for the best. Who really needs all that stuff/clutter (only someone who can afford a maid to clean it up or dust it) so not me :)
