Happy Birthday, romanyg!

And condolences, annakovsky - such a revelation is surely mortifying *g*

Today is my last day with the 8-month-old baby I've been sitting for ( Read more... )

So, how soon do people generally line up for these preview screenings? I heard a few hours, but there hasn't been one in Minneapolis before. Is it mostly a social thing, to squee with likeminded people before the big event? When are other MN people arriving?

Last year for The Niece's first birthday, I made a DVD of images and video clips set to music.  I used Isreal Kamamawiwo'ole's "Over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World", Alison Kraus' "Baby Mine," Louis Armstrong's "When You're Smiling," Natalie Cole's "Smile", and an instrumental piano piece ( Read more... )
