Please think findy thoughts for a plot-important scarf I KNOW I have but I can't find anywhere. Trust me. You want me to find this scarf.

Sister Girl has acquired herself an LJ to post Comic-Con adventures on when she gets back, so that should be forthcoming.

Meanwhile, my sister's boyfriend is stuck in Atlanta on a three-hour layover. You can drive to Birmingham faster than that.

Meanwhile-meanwhile, I am scared, but I am determined to figure out how to put the book and Not Eowyn on eBay today, because Sunday's a good day for that and it needs to go already.

GO CORALINE GO! (Coraline 2009's first Oscar contender?)

Yes, I did hear about Summit optioning Breaking Dawn. I'll believe it when I see it. Go here if you don't remember why it's so controversial--make sure you read the end of the second installment, if nothing else.

Today's Snack Deathmatch: Sour cream and onion potato chips vs. soft pretzels.

And finally (last is good in terms of people seeing it), from alexthedevil: "I know a lot of people are going through hard times, but is there any chance you'd be able to pimp the Red Cross bushfire appeal? I'm not sure how widespread the coverage is internationally, but at last count there's 66 dead and 700+ homes destroyed from the fires yesterday."

Just so people have an idea of the scale of the Victorian bushfires--the death toll is currently at 109 and expected to rise.

The fire toll has risen to 133 and is expected to reach around 230. As a resident of Victoria, please, PLEASE donate if you can! So many homes and lives have been lost, this is the worst bushfire we've ever seen.
