I just finished watching this mini-series from '08 called Lost in Austen that I rented at the library expecting it to suck gallons.

Surprisingly, it didn't.  It was by no means awesome and mind-boggling (well, mind-boggling, yes), but it was actually amusing and enjoyable.  Basic plot: Young woman finds a portal into Pride and Prejudice in her ( Read more... )

Ohhh my Goddddd.  I loved it.  Irrationally.  Will go into more detail tomorrow or something, but.

Malfoy's Dark Mark.
Malfoy in general...this movie rekindled the Malfoy-love I used to have circa GoF (the book, not the movie...the GoF movie is my least favorite by far).
DanRad during the Felix Felicis/Aragog scne - holy balls, he was hilarious.
OMG ( Read more... )

I think I have a weird pseudo-crush on Ryan Reynolds.  I swear it was only after seeing Wolverine, but now I really wanna see The Proposal.  I WILL.

The Halloween party Friday night up in Scranton was a good time.  The ride up sucked with the rain, but I really enjoyed myself.  Went as the Queen of Hearts but was mistaken for Rose Red, which I sorta ( Read more... )

I just gave Zoo and Li some liver and they just about flipped their shit.  I'm pretty sure they understand the word "treat" now (not unlike Walker and Wrangler), so they had already run up to the front of the cage and were all but throwing themselves out if it to get the meat.  Good God.  Still getting huge.  Zoo tried to jump from my lap to my ( Read more... )

For anyone who is or was looking for book recs, I am currently reading House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski, and it's really good.  Definitely not an easy read, or a light one, or a happy one.  It's got some horror-ish elements, creepy and disturbing at times.  I have gotten Lovecraft-slash-Silent Hill-slash-"The Yellow Wallpaper" -slash-Blair ( Read more... )

Hah, so after a rousing Thanksgiving trip to Reading to see the Family (annd let me just say, Jossian is adaorable) , we got home and Angelica and I decided that indeed, we would carry on with the plot to go to Kohl's at 4AM for BLACK FRIDAY. Assuming I would make it through the night. So We watched Home Alone, Requiem for a Dream, and 101 ( Read more... )

I am officially seeing Twilight Thursday night, at midnight, at the Rave theater.

HOW ON GOD'S GREEN EARTH DID THIS HAPPEN?

I don't even know.  So, as of now, I already know I will be seeing it twice - Thursday and Saturday.  I have done nothing but treat this and the book with disdain and amused dislike.  So confused.

Actually, what happened ( Read more... )

Saw The Dark Knight for the fifth time today.  I think I should look into counseling.  I went with Manda to the IMAX theater at the Franklin, and it was grand.  I thought my head might explode at some points during it, mostly frenzied action scenes.  I'd say it was worth it.  Only gripes: the theater was freezing, some kid behind us kept violently ( Read more... )

The whole wisdom teeth thing?  So far, not bad at all.  The anesthesia was crazy because I quite frankly don't even remember falling asleep.  And when I woke up I was just giggly but I think pretty aware of what was going on and I don't think I was very zombie-like.  Has some delicious and ridiculously health-detrimental Boston Market sweet potato ( Read more... )
