Watched the theatrical edition of FotR on Encore Action yesterday. The whole thing this time. Was in fullscreen. It’s the first time I’ve seen it in fullscreen.

I exercised this morning. I worked on my editing project. I chatted lots and lots with Angua, quite a bit with Connielane and Kirk, and wished that Rachel was around. I made plans for going to see Andy Serkis tomorrow. I watched the end of FotR twice (it was on the Encore Action channel, and […]

So I’ve been using exclamations as post titles lately, I’ve noticed. Hmm. Maybe I should try writing titles based on actual content. Nah. So I had a job interview today, at Western Governor’s University. I thought it went quite well. After the interview Fellytone and I went to lunch and discussed all sorts of fun […]

So Jen and I are sitting in my newly-cleaned room (gasp!) and having a fic-writing party. It’s going to be great fun. She’ll work on chapter 7 of Retrospection, I’ll work on Albus. We can bounce ideas off each other, read out portions that have been written, and just basically have a good time. Pretty […]
