Superb Owl

There is, apparently, some sporting event or other today. I suspect it has something to do with Tom Riddle, as the organizers get very touchy when someone tries to actually use the name of the thing. Fortunately, a simple slide of one letter to the left produces Superb Owl, a much more glorious thing to celebrate ( Read more... )

We're at a housefilk for a good chunk of the day (hopefully avoiding the crowds in our journey to Brooklyn), and should be home in time for me to see the second half should it be a good game. I am a big football fan, but the bloat of the Super Bowl, the endless halftime show, the usually witless ads, none of it grabs me unless there is actually a good game happening. And at the end of the day, I still prefer baseball, which doesn't suffer from the excess.

BTW, Tom, any reaction to JKR's comments about Harry and Hermione, being that you have always shipped them?

Warehouse 13/baking marathon.

Also, WTF is up with Natasha's stance/walk in the still? That has to be one of the least stable poses I have ever seen on a heroine who wasn't anitmated.

What are you implying? It's not as if they Photoshopped one of the most beautiful and recognizable women in the --

Oh.

Yeah, it's pretty damn stupid. Nothing up yet at The Hawkeye Initiative about it, but it shouldn't be too long.

Yeah, and even beyond the photoshopping, the actual pose - ugh. Granted, it's not a boobs-and-butt pose, but it's still not exactly a powerful or even stable stance, is it?

Oh, it's great, if you're overlooking the Moors, waiting for Heathcliff.

Hang around the house. Lizzie is feeling better. I'm still stuck inside for a few days.

filkertom February 2 2014, 23:02:11 UTC

Glad Lizzie's better. Hugs to you both.

Is football not over yet? It's gorram February.

filkertom February 2 2014, 23:03:08 UTC

Dude, you know that if they could, they'd pipe football 24/7. At least this is it for a few months.

I'm not sure what all I'll be doing. I spent nearly all of yesterday at the computer playing games and such so I don't really want to do it two days in a row. I think I'll go outside for a short walk (I hope all the sidewalks have been shoveled by now). Maybe make a fast trip to the market for some things. Hopefully get a jump on the end-of-weekend chores. Generally not try to spend the day sitting and staring at a screen. It's fun to do every once in a while, but I need variety ( ... )
