I haven't posted in this journal for quite a while, because I started posting to FB and I would rather have my personal life, such as it is, located there. However, this journal isn't dead, I still use it to keep up with old friends' journals and read/comment on fanfic and the like. If I have friended you recently, it's generally because I am ( Read more... )

Happy belated Birthday to ljs who is the most fabulous person I know, as well as the kindest. If I could get everyone out here, I'd organize a Ljscon at my house, where we would hold various seminars on the different ways in which she makes the world a better place. After hours of nuanced discussion, there would be wine and Britpop, and we'd see if we ( Read more... )

I saw PotC: AWE today and I had a blast. Very brief spoiler, I will try to post more thoughts later on: ( Read more... )

I went to the gym tonight. I got on the treadmill to warm up these creaky limbs of mine and I happened to glance up at one of the TV screens. As usual, CNN was on. What do I see? More crap about Anna Nicole Smith. Luckily the sound was off. Seriously, this is a joke. I keep seeing announcements about her on major network news shows --only at the ( Read more... )

Anyway, ( Read more... )

Happy Birthday paratti!!!!! May you continue to rock as hard as you have always rocked.

Second of all, When I was watching tonight's episode of House, I thought it the best episode in quite a while. That's a bit more like it. The promos always make me giggle. How is it that each episode is guaranteed to push House in a way he's never been pushed before ( Read more... )

To ljs: In celebration of Lori day I will simply say that you are one of the kindest people I have ever met. You are better at being a friend than anyone I have ever met. I wish that I could make everything better, but I will simply give you a hug. (((Hugs)))

So I was watching TV last night, and I wasn't pleased with what I saw. Some ideas about why I am displeased have been running around in my head, so without further ado...( House thoughts,spoilery )

Yes, ljs is a goddess. She gave me virtual LJ chocolates!

I also wanted to hug paratti. Please take care, although I know you do, because you have good sense.

So, I haven't been around very much. I've been feeling a little under the weather. I had a wonderful time when my friend was here, but I wore myself out a bit, and I haven't been able to get back up to that level yet. However, things are still better overall, and I expect them to improve ( Read more... )
