Do you think this daemon matches me? Take the quiz!

I think I'm really going to have to re-read these books before the movie comes out. Not too close to the movie, or I'll be highly critical of it (and I hate that), but soon because I love these books ( Read more... )

I've been in Houston, Texas, for a week and a half now. It's a lot different than my trip last year, since I'm not taking the train all over the country (which was definitely a backpacking experience) but flew to one place for three weeks to hang out with my two friends. I'm realizing now that three weeks is a long time, especially when I've ( Read more... )

Those of you who've known me for at least a year know that for me, housesitting means overdosing on movie viewing. Which is good, since I don't watch near enough during the rest of the year, being the TV whore I am. This is TV too, since I'm watching movie channels, and it's like these awesome little two-hour shorts presented in a format I like (TV ( Read more... )

01. All Joss fans must read this beautifully written response to violence against women. My favourite line: "I’ve always had a bent towards apocalyptic fiction, and I’m beginning to understand why. I look and I see the earth in flames." I love post-apocalyptic stories for the same reason ( Read more... )

I saw Georgia Rule tonight in theatres with my exstepmom for mother's day. I didn't have much interest in the movie, but it was my gift to her and she chose, and it's been a while since I've been to the theatre, so it's all cool. But I didn't really like the movie. One unspoilery warning: the subject matter is MUCH heavier than the previews would ( Read more... )

( 'I'm not just saying that because you're Indian.' )

Today I baked my first ham! It was kind of crazy. I kept asking my meat-savvy roommate insecure questions about water level and poking prowess and such. I am much more comfortable around tofu and vegetables, but I need to get my protein intake UP, and one protein shake a day is certainly enough. It turned out really yummy. We glazed it with a ( Read more... )

01. Countdown TV meme from indilime:

( Veronica Mars, Buffy, Firefly, The Office, Gilmore Girls )

Last week while housesitting, I had a million ideas for LJ posts (many involving pictures, like the rest of that picture meme, and I DO have all those pictures saved on my camera, I just have to upload them), but now that I'm back home, they all went poof! I've been wrapped up in an online roleplaying game through Neopets (NQII for the initiated), ( Read more... )

I'm back home, and bored. Yesterday was my last day housesitting, and I came home in a cleaning and organizing mood and put it to good use. I'm more tired today, though I'll try to tidy more tonight. Until then, help me pass the time!

Give me the name of an actor (or director), and I'll reply with a list of all the movies they've been in (or ( Read more... )
