sorcyress: Drawing of me as a pirate, standing in front of the Boston Citgo sign (Default)

So, stuff!

What I have been up to since the last time I posted:

Friday was lunch at the mall, where I got to see my BostonMommy ([livejournal.com profile] persis) and hang out with cool people and AHM'GAWDS, I got TRAW back! Squeeeee!

Traw being my huge orange towel whom I love above all others. And yes, I was a bad hitchhiker and lost my towel, but before you get all morally superior at me, I knew exactly where Merde (My largish blue towel from Marks and Spencers) was at all times, and I went and bought Calender. (Who is bright green)

Yes, I name towels. Shh. Freak at work here.

Soyeah. I have all my towels now, which causes me to laugh evilly. Or be happy. Same diff.

Saturday I spent doing something. Oh! It was my brothers black belt testing, which was reasonably cool to watch. And he passed, so I now have a brother who is a black belt! Yayforhim!!

Then came movie night, which was "nights spent at museums" night. We watched The Hideaways, which is a *really* good adaptation of From the Mixed Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler and Night at the Musuem, which is entertaining, and easily slashed.

Sunday I drove out to Pangea with Ksatyr (cute little vegan grocery store in Rockville) then came home, watched the second pirates movie for review, then went out with mum, the kids, Ksatyr, and Speaker2Animals to watch the third pirates movie.

SPOILER CUT!

Ohman. Awesome. Awesome awesome awesome. I totally enjoyed myself.

Girls in this movie = beyond awesome. Keira has catapulted her way to third on my actress list, kinda duking it out with Julia Stiles for second. (No one can beat out Zooey Deschanel. <3) Especially what with the whole "being the fucking KING OF THE PIRATES! thing." Which is cool.

And of course, Tia Dalma/Calypso rules something fiercely. Yay for her.

I liked the end where the two nameless guardsmen who've been around since the first movie turned themselves into pirates. My first thought was "Wait...they aren't broke enough to reuse extra's with lines, are they?" but then I realized that it was intentional, and it was all good.

Barbossa become wonderfully good, and totally awesome. He makes me smile.

Norrington redeemed himself so hard that he almost becomes hot. (Of course, ScruffyNorrington, from the first movie, is totally hot, AND has one of the best lines: "My compass is...unique." "Unique here having a meaning of 'broken'")

Whatshisface the EITC bad guy totally got pwned. I smiled my evil smile, and was pleased with how he went out.

Will continues to be totally uninteresting to me. Elizabeth rocks almost enough to make up for it though.

Jack. Jack, Jack, Jack. Dear gods, I love Jack. He is my boy, first and foremost. (Though he may have to ocassionally duke it out with Tennant!Who) And, though I appreciate putting more Jack into the movie, the weirdness with the Worlds End kinda threw me.

Uhmmmmmm yeah. 'sall I can think of for the moment. END SPOILERS.

And, because I'm me, I all kinds of dressed up for it, even though I was nearly a month late in seeing it. I looked bloody well awesome, though I'm not sure I bothered to take pictures. Lemme check my camera.

Nope, no pirate pictures. BUT, I do have one picture of my hair, after JenBark got done making it look exceptionally gorgeous at movie night. If I am a goddess of hair (Which I tend to believe, because my hair is incredible) then I maintain that Jen gets to be first priestess of my temple. Soyeah. CLICKY!

That's pretty much the end of my ramblings. I spent today sleeping, being jerked around by Target, dealing with an emotional sister, chillaxing with Ksatyr, and making a Vampire charecter. My charecter is a complete street rat, who keeps pretending to be respectable in order to screw around with the mortal politics, though she really doesn't have any sort of plan for them. She also does not yet have a name --I will have to fix that.

Annnnnnd I'm out. Byee!

MOOP!

Haha, you named your towel shit in French.
No moral judgment from me...I always forget to bring towels. I'm a horrible hitchhiker =/

Excellent. I knew it was something in another language -my guess was thank you, in some frenchlike language, but shit is much cooler.

...Excuse me, itunes is failing to work. I'ma gonna go have a breakdown now.

Yay for lunch at the mall .. it was totally cool seeing you and everyone else. And I need to re-watch pirates 1 & 2 with DHS before seeing 3... And I loved The Mixed Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler... didn't know there was a movie of it (I'll have to rent it).

Your braid net is awesome; I'll have to show it to my Talis (11, who you will meet when you get up here), she'll want me to try it on her. :-)

I would totally reccomend renting it, it was very enjoyable.

I really want to learn how to do the braid net myself, though I don't think it's possible to do on my own hair. Hmmm...Oh moooom!
