Not much to report today, except that I did get some interesting plot hinks hashed out on Black Ribbon.

The Eragon thing I mentioned yesterday: Okay, I will caution you that I have not actually seen ( Read more... )

What with this being my third entry of the day, and all.

Maggie has all 65 Marie Antoinette dress pages up! And we're still looking for that pink dress with the bow at the bottom of the page--we haven't seen it anywhere in the movie. Meanwhile, I went through some Eragon DVD caps last night (wait a minute... that isn't out on DVD yet, is it? And ( Read more... )
