May. 30th, 2004 07:37 pmSleepy. But it's a good sleepy. Have been fairly useless this weekend--although The Lovely Emily did come back over and we finished the ROTK DVD. Unfortunately, I can't find the remote, so we couldn't figure out how to scroll down the extras menu. Must find that.
I finally got the ice cream I wanted. I wanted something really gooey and chocolate--you know, like chocolate chocolate-chip fudge swirl. With Oreos and hot fudge. Dipped in chocolate. Or something. We ended up going to Marble Slab last night--I don't know if it really is a Coldstone Creamery rip-off, but it feels like one--and I got the double dark chocolate with almonds and hot fudge. Which they mixed in, so I couldn't tell it was there. We will remedy this the next time I go.
So after I died of sugar shock I've started The Day After Tomorrow in Fifteen Minutes, which means that now I'll never be able to finish it because I told you about it, but okay, but I'm having a hard time remembering what happened when. I mean, there was just so muchstuff in that movie--so many character subplots, etc. The Movie Spoiler finally has got a summary up--I can't tell you how useful these things are when I'm trying to remember what the hell happened; I ended up having to take notes all through Dracula, because I knew I wouldn't have The Movie Spoiler as a safety net.
So I'll have to get to that now. Have been playing Neoquest II all day while waiting, because I felt like being useless, dammit. I've beat NQII once, but it's relaxing and and just monotonous to get some good thinking done. So I've been mulling over TDAT, and over a story I want to write for my fantasy project (which is basically a big mess of novels and/or short stories). And yes, I do write different things simultaneously--writing on one project is often a good way to get around writer's block on another and keep your hands moving.
Damn. That reminds me. I desperately need to get over to Writer Girls and see how things are doing over there. I've neglected it pretty bad. I mean, generally the founder should hang around, you know? But I am sort of hoping that it becomes sort of self-sustaining anyway, the way good communities should.

Date: 2004-05-30 09:49 pm (UTC)Anyway, because imitation is the highest form of flattery and all that crap, I'm going to do my best to do right by you and shamelessly rip you off. In other words, I'm doing my homage to MIFM by romping around making fun of LOTR: Return of the King. Which I actually liked, but have the strangest urge to shit on. I'm going to be posting it in my journal later on, so if you would do me a great honor by yelling at me for crappily emulating you in the form of a post, I would be mucho pleased.
Much love and ego noogies,
Lea

IN THE LIBRARY OF BRRRRRR
SAM: I didn't want to face the truth of why I joined the debate club in the first place.
EMMY: The truth?
SAM: I came across time for you, Sarah Connor. I did it for you.
EMMY: ... what?
SAM: Uh, nevermind.
I couldn't help myself at that point; I started thinking about all the wonderful things that Cleo could inflict on this film. :D

Ooh, DAY AFTER TOMORROW in 15 minutes up soon? Keen! I'd better start preparing for all the funny looks I get from the librarians here when I start guffawing loudly at the monitor...
btw- Is the 1978 DRACULA the one with Laurence Olivier acting with his breaks off as Prof Van Helsing ("The Crawss; the Crawwws!!")? Because that's my fave version of the story on film. The "vampire Mina" gave me nightmares for a week as a kid. Iconses?!

Keen. Frank Langella makes a surprisingly sexy vampire. Just ask Whoopi Goldberg
