My favorite quotes from seeing The Wizard of Oz play on Coronado last night:

-"She put an enchantment on my axe!" -Tin Man (and it didn't quite sound like he said axe....)

-"What makes the muskrat guard his musk? Courage!" -Lion

Happy 70th Anniversary to the Wizard of Oz!

Yeah, it's January 2009, and I'm still writing about Christmas. So sue me. It's just about right, actually -- I'm generally about 2 weeks behind on things I want to accomplish, so I'm still doing pretty well for myself. So anyways, here's the fun Christmas season wrap-up that I've been wanting to write for weeks now ( Read more... )

I just spent the last 4.5 days at home in San Dimas and had a most lovely time. We did lots of stuff, had lots of fun, ate a ton, and slept very little. Here's a brief review of the long weekend ( Read more... )

Well, it's finally over.

Last night I finished watching Angel season 5 -- my time in the Buffyverse has come to an end! What a trek it's been -- it's taken me about 9 months to watch 7 seasons of Buffy and 5 seasons of Angel. It's been quite an entertaining trip. Joss Whedon is great (ad nauseam), although clearly he does not like happy endings ( Read more... )

Tonight, for the first time this year, it finally felt like fall. I had forgotten how much I love the feeling of cool, crisp air, the sound of my windchimes on the patio tinkling in the wind, and the smell of candles burning. It was a nice, cloudy and cool day today, and was windy and almost stormy tonight. It was full-on Halloween weather, and ( Read more... )

Is it really the last day of September already? How did that happen? I swear, time passes oddly at this job. Well, first of all, living the life of a "normal" person and not a student makes all time seem the same. There's no ending of terms, finals to take, new classes to begin... each day is pretty much the same as the last, week after week, ( Read more... )

It's official -- the Dodgers are the 2008 NL West Division champions!!! Arizona oh-so kindly lost their day game in St. Louis today to allow the Dodgers to clinch the division before they even have to play tonight. That's probably a good thing since they're facing Jake Peavy, although I think they should go out and beat him for once just to cap ( Read more... )

Greetings! It's been a long time since I've written anything on livejournal... things have been good lately! Just average day-to-day life, but a very happy average that I am loving and appreciating. :) For example, tonight Daniel and I cooked teriyaki chicken kebabs on the grill and spent a nice evening on the patio eating dinner, enjoying ( Read more... )

1) "You can't sell horse tranquilizers to a midget!" -the best line from In Bruges, said by Colin Farrell. The rest of the movie was meh, but the midget stuff was great. :-P ( Read more... )
