Had a story bounced yesterday. It went out to the next market this morning. Go me!
Saw Pirates of the Carribean: Dead Man's Chest tonight with CM and had an absolute blast. Yes, the movie is too long, and no, I don't think they could have convoluted the plot anymore than they did, but I had a helluva good time anyway. As
dianora2 observed, suddenly Norrington's hot (it's the scruffy and the tortured, in my opinion), Jack and Elizabeth have a kind of chemistry to die for, and I want to be a pirate! (Okay, that last has little to do with the movie and perhaps tells you too much about my private life....) Anyway, I admit I turned off my critic when I went into the theater and I think the experience was better for it.
Still pining over the end of Doctor Who Season Two and I'm feeling closer to being able to write about it. In the meanwhile, if you don't mind mild spoilers, I direct you to
this music vid celebrating the Doctor and Rose. Once again, it's
dianora2's fault if you find yourself weeping over your keyboard. How am I going to last until the series starts up again on CBC, I ask you?
Saw
exiledfromtribe last night for the first time in about 6 months and had a most excellent visit. He made Italian chicken for dinner and I felt positively spoiled.
Still having trouble concentrating on my flist; my apologies. I did notice pix of
littleelfhat and her milk beard (what an attractive look; it will be all the rage next season!). I also noticed that
varina8 is finally on her way homeyay! And was that
cheesepuppet all trussed up in a stretcher? Girlfriend, you get into the weirdest stuff when my head is turned!
I got my first paycheck yesterday. How nice to feel like I have a little bit of a financial cushion again (that is, until I pay my bills tomorrow morning).
