What’s New?

I’m addicted to podcasts. I’m extra-addicted to Ricky Gervais’ podcasts. I’ve looped all the ones available at the Zune Marketplace and now I’ve found there are literally hundreds more out there. Well, I found that out yesterday and today I’m syncing them to my Zune (which is now named HobStar). Even Scott likes to listen to them on the way home from work. Yay!!

Work is starting to kick up as it always does this time of year. I’m getting anxious again, what with scholarships, graduation, scheduling, etc. coming up.

Make Me A Supermodel is fun. I’m liking it. I think if I stay away from the LOST fanatics, I’ll give it another shot when it starts up in three weeks. Maybe I can find the love I had for it in Season 1 and pretend the last two seasons never really happened.

That’s it for us. Anything new out there?

You, Sir!

sween.jpg You, Sir, should see Sweeney Todd. Yes, there is gore, but it’s more of a theatrical sort; not too bad. Oh, and yes, it sometimes feels like “Willy Scissorhands Sparrow”. There is, however, one sequence where Depp transcends everything he’s ever done and becomes the face of madness. The street sequence may possibly be my favorite scene of the year; hell, of the decade! I’m not normally one to swoon over him, but in that moment of crazed desire for vengeance, I can see the attraction.

Thanks, Flo, for dragging me to Beckley to see the movie. I’m thrilled that I did.

Seconds, anyone?   :smoke:

Delay? Okay!

I was out and about when they announced a two hour delay for tomorrow. I kind of feel cheated by not getting the call in person. Nonetheless, I’m pleased they have called for the delay because the windchill temperature is already below zero degrees.

[Edit:  As of 5:00am, it’s a full-on snowday.]

*squee*

It’s a snowday! :cold: It’s also frigid out there. Not frigid, however is Lady Chatterley. Thanks to Jonas, my longest standing Amazon wishlist item is MINE! From the hundreds of screencaps I’ve seen of Sean Bean as Mellors, I can tell that it’s going to be amazing. I’m using the DVD as a reward for packing up the Christmas things and getting the kitchen back in order.

Thanks to Ben and Jesse, I am the extremely proud owner of the 2008 LOTR Wall Calendar, which now fetches $100 on the street. A three disc collection of Planes, Trains, and Automobiles, Summer Rental, and Foul Play makes the holiday complete.

Thanks, guys! :clap:
