You're gonna see webcomics I find amusing until I have time to write an actual post

Stardust

I had heard rumours, but I didn't know the movie was coming out this summer! Release date in the US: August 10 2007. *bounces*

I watched the trailer on the movie's official site and it looks like they've kind of hyped up some of the action bits, especially the pirates (everyone likes pirates, right?) and the swordplay-- I didn't remember quite so much swordplay in the book. But, you know, awkward young boy has to be more of a hero... Plus, I love, love, love Michelle Pfeiffer in the role of the witch. <3

I'm about halfway through re-reading the book now; the timing is good enough that I'll have it in my memory but it won't be too freshly on my mind, so I'll still be able to enjoy the movie. I do hope this movie is a success in the mainstream, however much it may bug me that non-Gaiman-reading fans are going to go see it, because if this is a success they might then do a movie version of Neverwhere-- which could be much darker/mature and awesome.

Some of the boxes in the classics closet, neatly arranged and alphabetized.

The classics closet doubles as a storage closet...

My lovely handwriting.

I also organised the sci-fi closet!

Demon Fish!

Actually, it's just a wolf eel. But still... it's looks like a lovecraftian sort of character, doesn't it? Apparently they found a skull of one in the tri-state area. Read the story here.

They're coming...

The revolution has begun!

Mrs. Rorer

She's the lady of the library-- the senior co-director, along with her daughter, and a formidable woman. She's very opinionated, blunt, and runs the library with a firm hand.

I spent way too much time on this

Your Score: Katharine Hepburn
You scored 7% grit, 14% wit, 66% flair, and 19% class!

You are the fabulously quirky and independent woman of character. You go your own way, follow your own drummer, take your own lead. You stand head and shoulders next to your partner, but you are perfectly willing and able to stand alone. Others might be more classically beautiful or conventionally woman-like, but you possess a more fundamental common sense and off-kilter charm, making interesting men fall at your feet. You can pick them up or leave them there as you see fit. You share the screen with the likes of Spencer Tracy and Cary Grant, thinking men who like strong women.

I'm a leaf on the wind...

And in her sleep she dreams of the stars...

:(

Well, my mom got a call today that a close friend of hers who lives on the west coast died yesterday... she was kind of like a relative to me but I just feel very distanced from it, although sad. But I feel bad for my mom :/
