Saw the Hobbit at the midnight showing.
Unsurprisingly, it was very good. Most of the changes are minor, and some of them -- such as giving Radagast, Dwalin, Balin, Fili, and Kili more characterization than they had in the book -- are actually very good. Mild spoilers under the cut:

You can't have just one...
So we got another ferret, and named her Eris. Her previous owner was a teenage boy who wasn't taking care of her properly and didn't bother to name her. That said, the kid did at least have the decency to realize that he wasn't doing it right and that she should be in a good home. She's kind of scrawny, but I'm hoping she'll fill out now that we've ( Read more... ) -
A line you'd normally expect to hear uttered in a DC title...

Well, I'd suspected it for a while, but now I'm fucking sure.
My adderall's shaving the top 20 points or so off my iq while it's in my system.
Lovely catch-22 there. I need it for work/school, but if it's making me stupid...

Memeage.
I've been severely procrastinating tonight and (among other things) re-reading old journal entries from my friends' journals. Found a meme in bluefall's journal that I'd responded to and forgotten to re-post in my own journal.
So, here it is:
Reply to this post, and I'll tell you one reason why I like you. Then re-post this and spread the love. -
I think I've wished my friends-list Merry Christmas on their own journals...
...but it doesn't hurt to say it again.
Merry Christmas. If anyone on the f-list doesn't celebrate Christmas, Happy Holidays. -
Also not dead.
"I'm getting better!"
Just kind of swamped. Temp work. Looking for a steady job. Regular exercise. More temp work. Medication changes. And last but definitely not least, a physical health issue -- not severe, but chronic and unpleasant ( Read more... ) -
Brief post before I head to bed.
Job's winding down (slightly earlier than I expected), and I'm getting the last few things finished up.
One good thing about a freelance gig -- they won't fire you for being down with a nasty cold. I spent Sunday through Tuesday too sick to leave the house. Bleah. Getting better now, though. -

(The only reason I'm posting about it now is because I'm waiting on my camera's battery to charge.
