Everywhere I turn....there's Julia Roberts. I could have lived the rest of my life without having to see her in movies once again. I can't stand her. Well, except for her cameo performance in Fright Night.

Looks quite good. And I'm so glad to see that they used costumes instead of CG for the wild things ( Read more... )

I got my Amazon.UK order one week early. I will have to restrain myself from watching it until the weekend. It's going to be a rainy one again so I won't be able to paint again.

Here's what came:

The roof is going to be replaced and the insurance is picking up the check. I was so worried that I would have to pimp out my friends to raise the money for this but it all worked out in the end.

I guess he must have been waiting for that opportunity for a long time ( Read more... )
