Each year I try to remember to post this video at least once before Christmas. If I can get my act together, I'll be posting other videos, too (I've got some awesome Muppets clips!), which have special significance to me at this time of year.

One of the things I love most of all about my varying-levels of friendships with every one of you ( Read more... )

My hubby has up some new movie reviews over on his blog, for those who are interested:

The Warrior's Way
Nowhere Boy

He was in here today watching some unbelievably depressing movie with Nicole Kidman, so I'm sure he'll have another review up in a few days. ;-)

And speaking of my hubby, I've been searching for a good Doctor Who t-shirt to get him for ( Read more... )

Alright, Who-vians, I've got a rec to pimp that is not likely to get the kind of DW love it deserves, as it's not posted at Teaspoon.  There aren't many like this out there, so I've been eager to rec this fic since it first appeared in the hgcrossovers exchange recently.  The big reveal was today, so I was able to get my rec posted over at KIA.

Over on his blog, Resident Film Snob, my hubby has posted links to two interviews with David Yates. Those of you who enjoy hearing details about the film making process, particularly that one incredible animation sequence, may enjoy this.  I haven't watched these clips all the way through yet, so I'm not sure if there are spoilers are not.

My hubby the film critic has posted his review of Deathly Hallows on his blog.  The review also aired on his station this morning.  Hope y'all enjoy it!

However, if you consider discussions of the film sets, ( Read more... )

One of the fun things about my  hubby's job with the media is that I sometimes get to see movies before they are released when he goes to press screenings.  We're taking the kids and going to see Deathly Hallows: Part 1 on Monday.  In preparation for the review he'll be writing, my hubby was showing me clips from the movie that are available online ( Read more... )

Okay, I swear I actually do have a life aside from fundraisers, fandom and (occasionally) fics. :)  But please forgive me if I pester y'all again by asking you to vote for one of my school's fundraisers! :)

Could you please help me raise money for my daughter's school by clicking a link below to vote for one of these three teachers each day till ( Read more... )

I mentioned in a previous post that I was startled to hear the phrase "The Darkness is coming" in a Doctor Who season 3 episode.  Tonight my daughter was watching "Sound of the Drums" and I heard it again in a way that convinces me that this is a reference to the season 4 story arc.

The Toclafane are talking to the Master and they say, "We have to ( Read more... )
