Blargh. My city appears to have deemed this to be the summer of epic construction and it's closed off all but one road to my house. This means that in order for me to get from home to work, which is literally a straight line away from my house, I need to take a huge detour on the expressway if I'm getting a ride. It's so so much easier to just walk because I can be defiant and walk where I'm not supposed to so I can cut travel time in half.
In other news...has anyone ever had a hotdog from 711 before? Everytime I go there on my way home from from work around midnight or 1 am the people working there always ask if I'd like to try a hot dog. Like...I don't think I'd want a 711 hot dog at any point in the day, but at 1 am?! Ummm no... - Mood:complacent

It occurs to me that I have no idea who will be the victim of bad CGI in Half-Blood Prince now that Sirius Black has met his untimely demise. He wore that crown two movies in a row — who will be his unfortunate successor?
ETA People! No post-HBP screening thoughts on who did have sucky CGI! Some of us have not had an opportunity to see it yet on account that it has only been out for nine hours! - Tags:harry potter

... I hadn't realised I have not posted since July 7th. Oops. Hi. Happy fellow birthday to shaggydogstail and furiosity, and thank you to everyone who wished me a happy birthday as well! All of my sisters and a couple of friends came over yesterday for a small birthday get together, which we followed with attending a shadow cast screening of Jurassic Park. Phenomenally terrible. Occasionally it was funny but mostly it wasn't and after awhile we just stopped watching the cast and watched the movie instead (while being silently annoyed that they were in the way of the screen). Alas, you win some, you lose some. Here's the birthday cake my friend baked for me. ( cut for AWESOME )I also (finally) finished my mermaid quilt this afternoon. ( cut for pics ) | |

I'm surprised no one has written on here about The Warriors remake that should be coming out next year. I've read a couple different things, either that it's just a contemporary remake set in LA, like here: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0423512/, or much more interestingly that it'll be a sequal, which I read on a members only mesage board here: pacman712.proboards.com/index.cgi. | |

Title: Turbulence, Chapter 1 Author: digitalruki Wordcount: 404 Pairing: Davis/Ken* Spoilers: Season 2 finale. This story takes place shortly after the end of Season 2, but this scene is based loosely on a part from "A Very Digi Christmas". Summary: Ken doesn't like to ask for help. Luckily for him, Davis doesn't think twice about offering. Disclaimer: I don't own Digimon, Davis, or Ken. ( Author's Notes )-0- ( Ken felt the adrenaline rush, the fear. ) | |

I'm going to review my laptop FROM my laptop, it's also going to have a lot of my thoughts about OS X as last time I used it OS X 10.3 Panther was new and fresh and edgy.
We DID finally buy a new house! It's on.. wait for it.. .Elite Road. Best. Street name. Ever. | |
|
So, I finally got Persona 4.
Also, I have this urge to make a dressing-room RPG where characters use only the Persona main-character format... what, I'm bored. | |

Back in school now, hopefully I feel more comfortable this time around. College isn't as much of a bitch as uni but the actual substance is more stressful as you cant coast/bullshit technical skills as well as philosophy
I've been listening to mew and fugazi a lot lately. Its good shit.
David lost his father this morning, so I'm going over there now
Real post later with a review of my new laptop | |

I like to go into Pottery Barn Kids and check out all the awesome but overpriced felt toys. It's torturous to me that I don't have any friends with kids for whom I can make this shiz, and as such I'll share some awesome tutorials on felt food that I just found: carrots, cookies, cherry pie, and saltines. Actually, in the cursory ten second look I gave the rest of the site, they seem to have tons of other great stuff too. A friend of a friend went to Hong Kong last month and she brought back these stuffed felt food kits for her friends. My friend got a green tea cake kit that I am sorely tempted to make next time I am at her house. ETA Freaking adorable felt food on Etsy. ETA 2 The Toy Society, where people make handmade toys, drop them off in public places for random people to pick up, and then, when all goes according to plan, the recipient emails the site email address letting them know where they found it. Random acts of toyness! | |

First of all, I'd best be saying goodbye, maybe.
It's that time of year again -- Sydney's magical cottage funtime exxxxxxxtraviganza. I'm all packed and ready; we're heading up to Timmins today. I'm driving the second half of the way up, so at least I get to sleep for an hour or two? Haha. To North Bay anyway.
I had internet up there last year, but I'm not too sure about this year, therefore, I'm putting a conditional hiatus on this journal. If I do get internet up there, I might only be out of commission there for a week, a day, an hour, while the satellite is re-calibrated. If it's not working, however, then I'm out of the picture for about a month. Until I get to see Coldplay gdfgdfhf.
So this is a (just in-case!) goodbye. Of sorts. I love all of you and, if I don't see you (maybe) then I wish you a great month, full of action and intrigue.
See you~ ♥ | |

So, after TWO WEEKS we still don't have our DSL back up and running. We have dial up on the one computer now, but since that moves at a snail's pace I've been keeping my use of the internet to a minimum, since it takes me ten years to load my friends page.
So! I'm still totally alive, but until we get our dsl back, and hopefully get a new service provider, given how failtastic our current one is, I won't be able to check much on lj. This makes me feel like a hugely uber douche, and I'm really sorry to everyone. If anything super awesome or super not awesome or super anything-in-between has happened to you please let me know! ILU friendos! | |
