Most disappointing discovery of the ... month? year? foreverness?  The streaming anime on Netflix is only available in English dubs...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I'm watching the 1951 version of The Day the Earth Stood Still.  It's on one of my lists of top movies but I'd been avoiding it because ... well, I watch science fiction for the special effects and ... this was made in 1951 ...

But it's really well done!  I didn't know it was going to be more like a thriller than an alien movie.  There's very ( Read more... )

At the beginning of very school vacation, I always make big plans for what I'm going to get accomplished, like making a quilt or swimming the English channel.  And, when the end of vacation rolls around and we take stock of things we did and we didn't do, I lean more towards the "didn't do" end of the spectrum.....

We had Chinese from Moo's Restaurant tonight.  (My sister likes it.)  And my fortune today is "A romantic interlude will soon come your way."

oooOOOooo~~  :P

I suppose it's redundant to add "in bed" after that. :D  hoo hoo hoo.

I really love greenery.  What can I say?  I'm a hobbit.  :P  It really makes me want to have terrariums all over my room!  Aren't they cute?  They feel more like bringing in a part of the outdoors inside than your typical array of houseplants.  No offense, Rodrigo.  (Who is still alive, by the by.  Although, no thanks to me because my mom's been ( Read more... )
