No, I'm not dead... just been rather ill lately... still not 100%, but what can ya do...

Been watching a ton of movies lately, since I've been home for the past few days...

Watched "Queen of the Damned" on Tuesday night, while trying to go to sleep... didn't get to sleep, and just got rather annoyed as I watched the movie... especially since I had been getting close to finishing reading the book of the same name earlier that day... they took HUGE liberties with the plot so that they could cram "The Vampire Lestat" and "Queen of the Damned" into the same movie... *sigh*...

Yesterday, we watched "Pulp Fiction" in the afternoon... I hadn't seen it in a while, but I still liked it lots... :) Then we watched "Star Wars" in the evening, which was fun, even if I was only halfway conscious at the time... and then Gabe put "Interview with a Vampire" on as we were going to sleep, but I fell asleep early on into that... and woke up later, I think when it was on the second run through (it's one of those DVDs that plays continuously, until you turn off the DVD player... it would have still been playing this morning...)

Now I'm finally back at work, just for the day, as tomorrow is a day off... w00t! :)

And that's about it for my thrilling life...

I hate being sick... cuz not only does that mean that I'm miserable for a day or more, it also means that I get totally behind on everything else I want to get done... *sigh*... hopefully now that I'm feeling better I can get caught up though...

I saw Queen of the Damned on Saturday night, and I kinda enjoyed it. It's definitely not the best movie I've ever seen (we watched that later... *grin*), but it wasn't nearly as bad as I was anticipating it to be. And Stuart Townsend is a HOTTIE! My only real complaints had to do with the makeup (all the vampires with silver eyeshadow on the interior corners of their eyes) and the pacing (was it just me, or did it seem off somehow?).

Also on Saturday, some of us took the Werewolf Tribe Test (click on Quizzes to get there)... well, I turned up Fianna (go me!), Ashlea was a Black Fury (though we don't agree with that), Timmy was a Glass Walker (much to his chagrin), and Colin was either a Fianna or a "Red Child of Fangs"... or something like that... he scored equally on Red Talons, Children of Gaia, and Silver Fangs... talk about a weird one... ;)

Other than that, I've been spending way too much time playing The Sims again... might have to reinstall Hot Date so that I will get fed up with the game and quit playing, once again... ;)
