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 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...

I squeed so much over Norrington's deleted scenes, and love him even more now, if that's possible. So. cute.

Oh me too. I loved that he framed his rescue of Will in terms of his duty to a citizen of the Crown (which it was, but he phrased it well. And attractively. Heh.). But I felt so bad for him when Elizabeth raised his hopes a little, and he smiled so sweetly... They wouldn't have been happy together (though I don't think they would have been actively unhappy either, just dissatisfied), but still, poor Norrington. Oh well, he can chase after Jack happily ever after.

And, more lobsters! Their deleted scene is a little...strange, to say the least, but still, more lobsters! Happiness.

Hee! That was an odd scene, wasn't it? Nice to see Mullroy smiling, but ew. Oh well, any extra lobster scene is fine by me!

Cookies are good. Fun to make, too, and more fun to get than... um, I can't think of anything boring. I think I need to start hunting up cookie recipes.

That snowflake generator is the most addictive thing I've seen since the bee game. Have you seen these little games (http://www.ferryhalim.com/orisinal/)? Most of them are fun (and cute), but the one where you have to catch the bees inside bubbles has eaten up hours of my life. Much like the snowflakes.

Poor Norrington. He really needs a boyfriend. Too bad Jack won't ever settle down and pick out china patterns with him.

Any luck finding cool cookie recipes?

Ooh, nifty site! The first one I tried was the Perilous Voyage game (the ship caught my eye). It's hard, but I'm getting quite good at shooting rocks with my cannons *g*

Hee! That's a fabulous image. Poor Norrington, herding Jack away from the tacky china with the parrots and the chili peppers on it, and toward the tasteful, subtle china... oh well. I can picture them sailing after each other for years, though, meeting up at little hidden coves and islands and occasionally catching each other. Aw. (I have a Jack icon, but no Norrington- poor James will have to share with the Pearl no matter what, I guess).

Looks like tomorrow is baking day- I put it off so long that probably the cookies won't get to people until after Christmas (I haven't done my cards yet either), but I wanted to wait until I had the energy to stand there measuring flour all day long. So far I know I'm making mandlebrot, egg nog cookies, some sort of chocolate thing, and something spicy, molasses or gingersnaps or something. Funny thing is, I bake more cookies over the course of a year than nearly anything else, and I don't really eat them myself. I like them and all, but I don't seek them out. Weird.

I'm terrible at the Perilous Voyage game. There is invariably much setting of the boat on fire. It's not pretty.

Heh. Now I have fic ideas, cute funny little fic bunnies...darn you :P I like your picture of how they'll spend the next dozen years or so. Occasionally catching each other - nice.

I don't blame you for putting it off; baking is a tiring job. I don't know what mandlebrot is (sounds, Jewish perhaps?), but the spicy cookies sound yummy. Mmmm, gingersnaps.

Yeah, it sucks that you die if you get hit just once. The poor, pretty boats, set aflame. Stupid dragons.
