I've been trying for a while to post and update. I write a few lines, delete them, write a few more, delete those...it's a vicious cycle. This means you, dear readers, have been stuck with multiple youtube video posts ( Read more... )

Still hooked after two episodes. I cannot even say how often I squee during this show. And knowing what's going to happen doesn't make it any easier to watch.

The last time I was in Franconia Notch was the summer of 1994. Such a long time ago, but I can remember almost everything about that place as if I was there last weekend.
