Random thoughts...

... before I go out. (Again! My God!).

Hmm--I seem to be having a mild hypomanic streak (this is good). I'm not burning the midnight oil as obsessively as I used to--because of the Lamictal, I assume--which actually means that I have the spurt of productivity (maybe dulled a little bit), but none of the Oh My God I Have to Write This Down Before I Forget hysteria. It's a calmer, more even kind of thing. Also, I wrote (typed) 4400 words last night, and this morning I wrote about three pages, small cursive, longhand. Good times.

Question: There was a really useful site that would ping you when a website--any website you gave them--updated... and now I can't find it. It's basically what you'd want for a site that doesn't have an RSS feed, or isn't really a blog, but you'd still like to be reminded to visit it periodically.

There's nothing quite like getting bitched out for a stupid mistake (honestly, it was my fault) to ruin an otherwise good day.

Also, I'm going out to a movie tonight, but I'm not going to say which one, because deluded self-importance mass hysteria might break out if I did.

You're going to Grindhouse aren't you? Sinner. :P

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Bzzzzt! Nope. Particularly not after my sister nearly threw up trying to describe Planet Terror.

[particle-person.livejournal.com]

...uh oh. I was thinking about seeing it, after hearing all the good reactions on SF. I barely made it through Sin City.

[christwise.livejournal.com]

She almost hurled just thinking about it? I might actually have to see this now.

ps it's Amazing Grace

[bluebren.livejournal.com]

Wild Hogs? :D

[kateshort.livejournal.com]

Here I was thinking that she'd gotten tickets to some sooper-seekrit preview of Order of the Phoenix...

Answer: Might not be the one you're thinking of, but try WatchThatPage...

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Dude! I think that might be it!

[ter369.livejournal.com]

Ooo! Glad to know about that, as Google News Alerts are more miss than hit.

[lilgoala.livejournal.com]

Blades of Glory. xD

[gwenmary.livejournal.com]

Oh, Blades of Glory is a good guess, I'm going with that as well. Why must you tease us? *cries silently* just kidding

[gwenmary.livejournal.com]

Wait no, I change that. I bet you anything it's 300. It has to be.

[evilsimon.livejournal.com]

*slides money forward for 300*

[derangeddarling.livejournal.com]

I was just going to ask if she'd already seen 300 and I missed it, due to the lack of guessing it.

Saw this thing about site meter and thought you might be interested:

[sualocin.livejournal.com]

I think you could use futureme.org to email yourself to remind youself to check a website.

[slammerkinbabe.livejournal.com]

Did you get advance review tickets to POTC3 or something? Whatever it is, have fun. :)

[ter369.livejournal.com]

Also, I wrote (typed) 4400 words last night, and this morning I wrote about three pages, small cursive, longhand. Good times.

Wonderful, wonderful!

[thatlizgirl.livejournal.com]

PLEASE say Blades of Glory!

[ladyvoldything.livejournal.com]

I'm thinking Blades of Glory or 300. Definitely. Or a super-dooper advance showing of Harry Potter 7.

[confusedmuchly.livejournal.com]

That WOULD be super-dooper advanced, seeing as we're only on 5 as it is. And the seventh book hasn't come out yet.

Wait, that must be it, it's so simple! Cleo is travelling FORWARD in time and seeing Harry Potter 7! Cleo, you devil.

If you use Firefox (which I can't remember if you do or not, sorry), there's an extension you can download called the Page Update Checker (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/920). I love it -- it always tells me when my favorite webcomics get around to updating.

Hope you had a fun night out!

[bardintraining.livejournal.com]

For the sake of a left-field guess, I just googled new movies out this week and I'll go with Lonely Hearts because it looks a little bit like that Leibovitz film noir spread come to life, judging by the poster.
*prepares to be wrong, of course*

[eofs.livejournal.com]

I'm in on the 300 betting. Though TMNHT crossed my mind too.

And this (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/news.html?in_article_id=447527&in_page_id=1770) is a really cute story, despite its source *shudders*

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Awww, that really is cute!

[mustang-bex1126.livejournal.com]

Hey Cleo, found this article about Cyber Crime and Bot Networks that mentions an attack on all of SixApart's blogs last year-http://redtape.msnbc.com/2007/04/whos_behind_cri.html#posts (scroll to the "Revenge" bit)
Thought it was interesting for sure.

[lauramcvey.livejournal.com]

Sorry, no clue. But I do have something for you: a messageboard for Matrix geeks fans, should questions need answers for Reloaded&Revs- someone here will know the answer. I'm pretty sure it allows guest posting.
Eurgh, now I want to know what you're going to see!

Hysteria? Huh. I can't figure out what might cause HYSTERIA.

Unless...

Oh my God. You went to see ERAGON, didn't you?!

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Nope, although it is out on DVD now...

[lauramcvey.livejournal.com]

Thought you might be interesting in what is hopefully the last news about A.N.S. we'll be treated to: http://tv.msn.com/tv/article.aspx?news=257945>1=7703

[chris-walsh.livejournal.com]

Hey, I invoked you when I reviewed Grindhouse (http://chris-walsh.livejournal.com/266646.html): I made a joke that feels like a variation on one of your "Troy In Fifteen Minutes" jokes (the "Insert Joke" thing), and I ended with

Oh, finally: if cleolinda did a Movies in Fifteen Minutes version of Grindhouse? HEADS. WOULD. EXPLODE. That level of meta would create new heavy elements, warp the space-time continuum, open doors to other dimensions…

Keep up the inspiring work. I hope you had fun.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Awww. I'd do Grindhouse, but that's not what I went to see. : )
