Thanks for reccing my drabbles, Steph ♥

I'm sure you'll love Wicked. I mean, REALLY love it. After you see it, we'll have to discuss which one is the OTP...

Your drabbles are the most inspiring thing I've read in a while. I'm still all tingly thinking about the possibilities for the two of them.

I have managed to "see" Wicked before ;) so I can already tell you without doubt that my OTP is Glinda and Elphaba. The book is totally different though and Fiyero/Elphaba are my OTP there. Once I've seen it live, I'll put my thoughts in a detailed post (maybe two posts, one full of serious meta, the other full of wicked fangirl squeeeeing).

I'm so glad you retrieved your licence plates!

De-Lovely is a great movie. Better than I thought it would be in fact.

We've got a long weekend here, so I'm hoping to get to watch De-Lovely.

Yeah S2 of Dexter was just awesome.

If you come to NYC, we should totally meet up!

I will be coming, Summer 2009 to coincide with the Stockbridge Theatre Festival. If you're still there I'd love to meet up ♥

Oh, you're the one doing the movie list! Lol, I knew someone on my FList was keeping track. I used to be an avid movie watcher, but lost momentum when I discovered fandom. I'm going to make myself a list, which I may or may not post on occasion. Stupid question- what rules have you set for yourself?

NOt a stupid question at all. The rules I set for myself are:
Watch the movie the whole way through (movies on in the background while I do other things don't count)
No repeats (I can watch old favourites, but I have to have watched 100 different movies in the year)

I basically started the 100 movie challenge as a way to be a little more diverse and in touch with the real world. I'm a huge movie lover, but recently it's been easier to go home to QAF & LJ and give the video store a miss. Hence I have many movies I've wanted to see but never gotten around to.

This is so true. I'm considering going back to netflix and canceling HBO. All those channels and nothing on. I could be paying netflix and watching what I want! Thanks, Steph! I'll probably add your icon to my collection, also, if you don't mind!

I don't mind at all. It's been a rather handy icon.

you like dexter! i think it's one of the most unique and brilliant shows ever produced for tv. have you read the books? i loved the first two but the third one i found to be so dark and disturbing that i will not read another one. i was relieved when the third season did not follow the book.

thanks for the link to gmta_nz's drabbles...fun reading.

you are going to love "wicked"...i'm excited for you.

as for "music and lyrics"...i can't get enough of the music. i've watched the last 15 minutes more times than i can count.

I do love Dexter, I do, I do. Very unique, and strangely compelling. How can a serial killer be so likable? I have the books, but as per usual, I'm not a big reader and have yet to finish the first.

I just know I'm going to be totally blown away when I see Wicked live. I'm waiting to see if a friend will be in town when I'm there, because I want to go a second time and drag him along with me :D I know once will not be enough.

As well as the Music and Lyrics soundtrack, I also managed to get a hold of a karaoke backing track to Way Back Into Love. I love singing along to it *grins*
