Forever my Queen

We watched Prince Caspian last night, and the movie's great and the Tolkien reference is wicked awesome, but the absolute best thing about the movie is Tilda Swinton's White Witch scene.

She can have as many drops of my blood as she wishes any time she wants *sigh*.

I mean she's so... *oogly eyes*

Wedding postponed

On account of the bride being grounded for skipping detention.

* * *

Two months. She's grounded for two months >.<.

Not her fault, really, more of a series of unfortunate events. Still, two months...

Humph!

So Doctor... may I marry your daughter?

XD

The thought crossed my mind, we'd be related!

(Sadly, it can't be T_T.)

The Poison Sky

All went well this week

Two "scream points" this week, a "blink and you'll miss it" one and then there's the trailer for next week - You'll scream like the guy in Torchwood!

Tinkering

I've had some time to tinker around these last days, and the results are quite interesting.

My main trouble has been NOT having a sonic screwdriver, since some things that are locked I haven't been able to pry open no matter how hard I've tried... but I'm afraid some doors are deadlock-sealed.

Anyways, my desk stinks of adhesive, I've got paint and chips scattered everywhere, and still I'm feeling rather proud of myself right now :-).

Have a great week!

Acts of Stupid

. . .

So, I had a lab session today. I actually studied for it, stayed Wednesday practicing and got all the sample problems done by Thursday.

Last night I got home tired and went to sleep.

Today, I completely forgot.

I missed it. I actually missed it.

Acts of Stupid, indeed. Unbelievable.

Partners in Crime!

I predict TWO, count them TWO "Squee!" moments, very close to the end of the episode.

I will say no more for now, except "WOOOOOHOOOOO!!! FREAKING AWESOME!!!".

Enjoy!

She is ALIVE!

Stepanie Brown is alive!

Uhm... explanation: In the DC Comics Universe (DCU), Batman has had three "official" Robins. Dick Grayson (the original, founder of the Teen Titans and now going by the name of Nightwing), Jason Todd (killed by the Joker, resurrected during the Infinite Crisis, turned villain as the Red Hood and now going by the name of Red Robin), and Tim Drake (current).

Except... there was a girl Robin. Stephanie Brown, who was originally known as Spoiler, was Tim Drake's girlfriend and who became Robin for nearly a DECADE, before she was  FOR NO GOOD REASON  kidnapped by a second-rate criminal, tortured and finally killed. And just before she died, she asked Batman if she had really been Robin. He answered "Yes, you were".

But after she died, DC decided she had never really been Robin. In fact, they decided to forget about the character.

This piss-poor decision spurned the Girl-Wonder Project (website here). I recommend you check it out.

So after years of letter-writing, poster signs at Cons, and finally the spoken support of Gail Simone, DC writer of Birds of Prey (and a few others), DC gave in and brought her back. Alive. The how is yet unexplained, but these are the guys who resurrected Superman so I guess they'll manage to pull it off decently.

So now we do our happy-dance and welcome her back.

STEPH I LOVE YOU! GO GET THEM, SPOILER!

A gaming conundrum

I've been logged in to Angels Online for a large-ish part of the afternoon, and earlier I watched .Hack//Roots... and I was wondering how far are we still from such a thing.

If The World were real, would I play there?

Perhaps. The basic idea is very attractive, really. As for the odd chance of being the one who gets stuck inside the game while the real body is in a coma... Heck, I'd risk it.

But for now I'll make due with what I've got. AO is really a very good game.

Bye!

One more goes away

Sir Arthur C. Clark passed away last Tuesday, at the age of 90.

I'm... sad. He was old, yes, but for some reason he seemed... timeless, as unchanged as the monolith discovered on the moon in the novel "2001: A Space Odyssey". He was a pioneer of modern science fiction, a visionary and a great thinker.

I'm posting an excerpt from his The New York Times' eulogy:

"If there's any legacy that Clarke has left us, it is that science doesn't solve the problems of the human condition. In fact, science forces us to wrestle even more deeply with our beliefs, choices and what we understand about ourselves. Clarke struck notes that were poignant and challenging, as with this final, anguished question which ends "The Star":

"There can be no reasonable doubt: the ancient mystery is solved at last. Yet, oh God, there were so many stars you could have used. What was the need to give these people to the fire, that the symbol of their passing might shine above Bethlehem?""

Twelve years later

We just had lunch.

Codfish Vizcaine, a recipe my mother swore twelve years ago she'd never again make. Except this time, we pitched in... and trust me, it was worth spending the whole morning sweating bullets in the kitchen. It's one hell of a recipe. Hard as hell to prepare, but once it's done... Delicious doesn't come close.

Now I'll spend the rest of the day farming, and maybe I'll join the Nude Race later, the prize is 100'000 gold for any who gets to the finish line. Since I can teleport, I guess it shouldn't be that hard. And if I'm lucky I'll get enough feed to get Hen to lay enough eggs to get past Profiteer Manny and score a few Wonder Eggs.

Anyway, one way or another I'll get to lvl 37 today.

Unless I get my butt off this chair and go outside. In which case, all bets are off. I wonder if I could get some bubble tea?

A Wizard's Death



Earlier today Gary Gygax passed away, at the age of 69.

I... am lost for words.

May he rest in peace.

You're 6:49 a.m.

You're the time of day right around sunrise, when the sky is still a pale bluish gray. The streets are empty, and the grass and leaves are a little bit sparkly with dew. You are the sound of a few chirpy birds outside the window. You are quiet, peaceful, and contemplative. If you move slowly, it's not because you're lazy, it's because you know there's no reason to rush. You move like a relaxed cat, pausing for deep stretches that make your muscles feel alive. You are long sips of tea or coffee (out of a mug that's held with both hands) that slowly warm your insides just as the sun is brightening the sky.

Heh, waddaya know? I was a morning person XD.

Been a while since I had one of these... so I'm enjoying it!

Family Day!

Thanks to lovely Karyssa for letting me know, today Canada celebrates Family Day!

It's a national holiday, people stay home and spend time as a family. Truly, a very Canadian way to see life, and one I support.

So happy Family Day!
