They don't still have debtors' prison, do they?

It is mine! The Adventures of Commodore Norrington is mine! Bias? What bias? It, ah, may be possible that the only part of it I've watched so far is Norrington's deleted scenes, but I'm sure that means nothing. Nothing at all.

Also acquired or arrived today: TTT:EE, The Making of M&C, World's Finest #204 (from 1971), starring Superman (natch) and the "New" Wonder Woman (de-powered Diana in her mod kung fu spygirl phase- I collect that version of her), and a tape full of Kim Possible goodness from the most excellent [livejournal.com profile] kathlaw. Yay!

Not acquired today: the RotK soundtrack. Still! Argh! Oh well, at least I have an excuse to go to the good mall with the Borders and the theater playing M&C, since the lame mall by the casino was a bust.

Also, no new Hornblower movies for me, although that's more of a current-and-ongoing situation. Thank the gods and little fishes for video.

Really acquired today: mucho debt and mucho stress, and it's only the tip of the iceberg. Ah, December. I think everyone's getting cookies for presents this year. Cookies, I can do.

Oh, and since I'm spamming anyway, I thought this snowflake generator was very cute. Addictive, too- I haven't spent this much just fiddling with the mouse and not actually doing anything since I first saw the online Lite-brite. Oooh, swirly lights...

If they still had debtor's prison I'd be typing this from there.

And the snowflake generator? I may never write again.

Oh no, that would end the supply of great Nick/Greg (and others)! A tragedy! I'd be crushed. Well, once I finally caught up with everything you've written in the last two weeks that's still waiting in my "to read" folder, that is. I figure I'll spend normal CSI time reading it all, unless they're repeating something really good.

I'm half convinced the snowflake generator a mind control device or some advanced form of hypnotism, disguised as a harmless little time-waster. Or maybe I'm just easily distracted and susceptible to shiny things. Nah, that can't be it.

It really is some form of hypnosis. I could stare at that thing for hours.

I believe they're showing "Homebodies" this week, which would be episode three of this season (the one with the teenage rape victim and all the tragedy). And WAT is re-airing. "Confidence".

"Homebodies" and "Confidence," eh? Hm. Subtext-light and bleakness-heavy. Yeah, reading fic while taping them sounds a lot more fun than watching. It's been too long a week for "Homebodies."
