sam_gamgeeThings have been on the crazy side lately - but on the good side of crazy. I got a bunch of stuff done week before last in the way of revising one of my fics and getting my schmangstathon fic written. And the former is as ready as I think I can make it to be placed in ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
eternalmusings's more than capable hands to beta it (aka pointing out the many faults). So, yay there.
anaidiana's graduation party, which was on the 11th, was lots of fun, though I felt bad for xtrodom, as this was his first time meeting the extended family. But I got to see a bunch of people I haven't seen since high school, so am very happy about that. Then I went with nakedwesley to see Common Rotation's last performance at The Point (hopefully it's only the last at it's current location), where we also met up with eatstake, one of her coworkers, and her friend, psubrat, who we ended up talking with for a looong time after the concert and will be seeing at the Angel Booster Bash next month.
Then, this past week, bothdrdeath and libralyte were here visiting. So. Much. Fun. I wish they could've both stayed longer, but, alas, they could not. We went swimming, they consumed alcohol approaching inordinate levels, and watched some good movies - including Ladder 49, Be Cool, and Shi mian mai fu (aka House of Flying Daggers). (And, dude, Takeshi Kaneshiro and Andy Lau are both very good looking.) And, can someone explain to me how two large bags of M&M's (one peanut, one plain) can survive in a house with three women for about half a week without being touched? (Ditto for a thing of chocolate chip cookies.)
I've decided to take up knitting again and actually make stuff. Should be interesting.
Went to see Batman Begins withlibralyte over the weekend and there was a Serenity trailer. And the movie itself rocked. Need to see it again.
Found out that the entire Chronicles of Narnia is now out in one paperback volume. Need to get it. Also need to get Finding Peace by Andrew Barriger. His stuff is like a good fanfic. (I read two of his books in a week - one of which was in two days.)
Have been watching "Into the West" and have been enjoying it a lot. Liked the first part better than the second, but still enjoyed it.
The brakes on the truck went yesterday when I was on my way to WW - which was kinda scary, but I was able to get there and home safely. My dad checked it out last night and said that part of the brakeline had rusted through and the brake fluid had leaked out. So it's now getting fixed and should be done tomorrow. And even though I'm not happy it happened, I'm much happier it happened when I was driving than when I letdrdeath and libralyte borrow it.
I'm currently playing Truth or Dare on MSN withsoft_princess, doveslasher, robintcj, luvxander, and winterlive.

Date: 2005-06-23 06:07 am (UTC)I'm annoyed by the prints released after Lewis died, because someone decided it was a good idea to re-order the books. I figure if they were never re-ordered while the author was alive, he had a reason. Was actually kinda worried that the movies wouldn't start with The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, but I guess the filmmakers have old copies of the books. :P
Shoot, now that I think about it, I've had mine for about 20 years!
