What do I know today? Not terribly much. We managed to pick Emily up yesterday despite not having her phone number or knowing her apartment number, and so we all went to see The Day After Tomorrow, which we generally enjoyed. As Liralen (I think it was Liralen) said, the science wasn’t nearly as bad as it could’ve been, and the special effects were terrific. As Shaun said, “I wanted more disasters,” and as Emily said, “Yes, but what happened *next*?” But it was pretty enjoyable. We went out to…
a very fine day :)
Well, I had a very fine birthday. Mom and Dad came over for dinner, which was deep fried halibut and homemade french fries and corn on the cob (yum!) and cake and ice cream, and everybody brought me good l00t.

On Thunderbird Falls rewrites, which isn’t really what I’d intended to start working on, but hey, the muse moved me, I guess, so who’m I to argue? Perhaps later today I’ll fix the rest of the chapter. Or perhaps I won’t! We’ll see! ahahaha. Ahem. *laugh* I’m in a good…
stupid spammers
I am getting *really* badly spammed by comments spam. This is really, really frustrating. Stupid, stupid bastards. :( I have turned off comments on any posting more than 1 week old. I’ll be doing this every week, I guess, so if you’ve got comments on older postings, just put them on the latest entry. :(
