Wow, I've been in a really weird mood lately. I watched "Pride and Prejudice" after Engineering Detention (aka study hall) Wednesday night, because (shocker) I wanted to. However, I must admit I laughed myself silly throughout, although it was entirely enjoyable. The end is the funniest.
I fail at being a girl, lol.
In oooother news... pirates! Yeah, so. Tia Dalma's shack... I read they'd purposely based it off of the Tom Sawyer thinger in the park, and I knew they'd closed down that ride a while ago. Or parts of it, or something. Anyway, I was wondering if this was going to happen:

"Pirate's Lair on Tom Sawyer Island
Beware! Pirates have been sighted in the Rivers of America surrounding Tom Sawyer Island! They have been drawn from all over the world by mysterious rumors of buried treasure.
To buttress the island's defenses against a pirate invasion, Tom Sawyer Island will be closed starting February 5. When the island reopens on May 25, 2007, expect thrilling new adventures and ample opportunity for scurvy pirate recruits to hunt for hidden treasure."
So...yeah. Cool because Tia Dalma is awesome and I was wondering if I was going to get to look inside her house (I mean, that would be soooo fucking awesome), but sad because they had to get rid of another part of the original (and by that I mean Walt's) park.
In other news, I still miss 20,000 Leagues... BEST RIDE EVER.
Oh, MAN. Speaking of being in a weird mood, and speaking of old rides; last night I got major nostalgia depressiong over Americana Amusement Park. But more on that later, I'm trying to get out of this funk at the moment. =^n.n^=
So... I am addicted to wikis, now. (Thank you, cleolinda) They are just so... informational. They follow how your brain works, constant links to everything. Open access. But at any rate, I'm slowly slowly working on my website, and now this, and I realized that a wiki layout in combination of some sorts with a traditional website would be exactly how I'd like to get the site set up. So once I have the $$$ for the domain name, and I have it all designed right, it will be up. Some day. For now I use free sites to store all my PRECIOUS PRECIOUS INFORMATION. (Oh dear lord. I am SUCH an information whore.)
As for the problems I've been having with Firefox? Fixed! (Thank you, UDit. Lifesavers, I tell ya.) First of all, I couldn't add bookmarks (THE HORROR. I can't imagine what Tangent users, who lack Office OneNote or Stickies, would have to do--as for me, I have a OneNote open with probably about 50 sites to add to my bookmarks. *information whooooore* And also, the toolbar would reset my configurations every time. It would get rid of my precious bookmarks and history buttons, and my spoofstick extension. Bah. But it turned out just to be some file was corrupt and needed to be reset, and I didn't even have to restart the computer. Grr. I closed all those programs for nothing. (Heh... mess to clean up later...) But at any rate, I also downloaded a whole bunch of Firefox ententions to aid. There's a tab tool that manages tabs in all these neat ways, there's a thing that keeps a text file of all the sites you've visited EVER (extremely useful for moi... as I sometimes feel the need to find that one site I saw three years ago with such-and-such on it. Like the rings? Yeah, saw these AWESOME handcrafted rings... no idea where I found them.), and a thing that (supposedly) saves all your tabs so you can close Firefox (or crash) and it will reopen exactly what you had. Let me tell you, this, folks, is love, right here. Or the internet is prostituting itself again, no surprise. Or it's using me. Or something. (Oh fuck it, I'm addicted.)
I STILL have that massive post sitting around waiting for updates. It's got to be over a month old now. Ha. At least the ideas. But it's kind of deep and I'd like to reserve it for a time when I actually have more time to study them. Like maybe tomorrow, heh.
Ohhhhhhhhhh and omg I found out that the Elvis Lion at Jungle Jim's was part of the Country Bear Jamboree that was custom-made at Americana. Rad. And *sigh.* And omfg so much ELVIS in my life wtf, lol.
