My LJ is no longer a paid account. Since I stopped blogging here, I guess. It won't even let me access the page without being logged in until I agreed to the new T&C. Ah, well.

I'm still around. Just not writing much in LJ. Feel free to look me up on:

Those are the sites I write most in these days.

See you around!

One of the highlights of ending September this year is getting to try Starbucks Reserve Coffee for the first time ever. Starbucks Reserve Coffees are, as far as I understand it, special blends of coffee that they pick from special places that cultivate coffee beans with distinctive flavors (ones that "enchant, amaze and captivate" - so, basically, ( Read more... )

This year's end of September has been a weird sort of day and, somehow, it's still not over yet ( Read more... )

After a full day out yesterday and 2 movies and driving around by myself, today predictably I crashed with exhaustion. I begged off working from work and instead worked from home because I just can't. Can't stand the idea of driving anywhere, of sitting up on my chair at my desk and of actually working actual work. So instead I just dabbled in web ( Read more... )

I'm in between screenings right now. Earlier today I went to an IMAX screening of Peter Berg's Deepwater Horizon about the Gulf of Mexico oil spill disaster. Later tonight I have a screening of Tim Burton's Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children. I got nothing to do before then, and it's useless to go to the office at such an awkward hour, so ( Read more... )

The last 6 days have been a madhouse. I was working on my Doctor Strange article while trying to keep up with fall TV premieres and a screening of The Magnificent Seven, so I'm now exhausted. The good news is everything is done. Locked another issue and we go to print. The bad news is my body is apparently the equivalent of a parquet flooring: ( Read more... )

Dear lijahlover, as always, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!I love the fact that we have the same birth date (because obviously Virgos are the best). I wish you a fun, relaxing and happy Sunday for your birthday celebration this year. As you always provide good cheer to me, I hope there will be lots and lots of people to put plenty of smile on your face. All of the hugs and ( Read more... )

It's been ages since my birthday falls on a Sunday so I've been having the most relaxing birthday ever this year! ♥

My family is the best because they woke me up for brunch and we had a table full of dim sum - one of my favorite type of foods - before the gift-giving/opening ritual. Mother brew actual Chinese tea and it was divine for mid-morning/ ( Read more... )

Okay, this is bullshit. Half of the electricity at my house is out (because the house is partitioned and I can't watch The Strain, Atlanta, pre-air Westworld episodes or do anything because the room with the modem is out while the room where I'm in with my Macbook and my TV is in, and this is effed up ( Read more... )

Before the Pete's Dragon* screening earlier, I went to Bakerzin's for a meal (it was a weird meal, I couldn't call it lunch because it was too late in the afternoon, and I couldn't call it dinner because it was too early to be called 'evening') and perusing Bakerzin's perpetually changing menu, I found this item which was odd and striking in its ( Read more... )
