cleolindaInteresting set-pic twofer at Coming Soon--Orlando Bloom and Kirsten Dunst on Elizabethtown, and Keira Knightley on Pride and Prejudice.
Meanwhile, I'm trying to pack for Baby's First Trip to New Orleans, wherein Baby is having a hard time packing light. I mean, I'm only going to be there two nights, but I always pack like I'm moving to a new continent. I did find an old disposable camera still in its wrapper, so that's nice. I would take my digital camera, but 1) it hates me and 2) I'm terrified of getting mugged and/or my pocket picked. I have decided to take Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire with me to read, because I've only read the last two books once each, and I'm probably not going to get any quality reading done. That's a good kind of book to take--it'll engross you if you need it to, but you're in no hurry to get to the end or anything, since you've read it before.
I'm looking into how to make phone posts via both LJ and Blogger; so far Blogger looks to have the easiest interface, so keep an eye on http://cleolinda.blogspot.com while I'm gone.
ETA: Eeee hee hee! So much fun!

Date: 2004-07-23 08:08 am (UTC)Someone told me that becuse Harry is an orphan and he's never been allowed to ask questions of the Dursleys, thats why he never asks questions. BS. It's totally a plot device. They're giving him pearls and he won't take the bait - like when Harry and Sirius are talking about family and how Sirius used to spend a lot fo time at the Potters.

Date: 2004-07-22 08:03 pm (UTC)I know this has nothing to do w/ what you wrote, and I truly apologize, but I read your spoof on HP & the Prisoner of Azkaban and loved it so much. Now I can't access it. I know you posted somewhere that you have to join the community, but I can't figure out how (not real familiar w/ livejournal). If you wouldn't mind e-mailing a copy of it or posting instructions on how to join the community I would be eternally grateful. I was laughing so hard reading it, esp. "ONE OF US, ONE OF US..." (there's an inside joke about that line I have w/ a couple friends). my e-mail is wemoonwitch@earthlink.net (please, folks, no spam)

You visit my journal if you like and see what u think. Just leave me a message. I'm not a wierdo. Just a little Insane.

Eeee hee hee! So much fun!
Oh, you have a nice voice. It's a lovely southern lilt you got there. I am slightly jealous. Bear in mind, the only time I hear any type of US southern accent is on the telly, whereas you'll hear it as normal, obviously. I'll stop rambling now. Yes.

I always do that too. Whenever we go visit relatives in Pensacola, I always pack 5 different pairs of clothing in case my cousins get ahold of my clothes and throw them in the lake. *cough* Not like that's happened before or anything...
No digital camera? No problem!
