A little bit of this, a little bit of that.

A pot, a pan, a broom, a hat.

A few of you have nudged me, no doubt wondering where I've been. To you I say, join my writing comm, [livejournal.com profile] wednes_writes because I've been posting over there. The new novel is coming along fine, even though it does not appear to be a hit with my (mostly female) readership base.

My return key is sticking. I hope this doesn't become a problem. I kind of use that key a lot.

We watched The Departed which was an amazing movie with lots and lots of violence, surprises, excellent performances, and suspense. Insane amounts of suspense. Gets my recommends even though I'm a little late to the party on that.

Speaking of parties, next Friday will be the celebration of the 29th year of [livejournal.com profile] pak_man78. We'll be gathering at my place around 9pm, sharing yummy food and delightful company. Promises to be a swell affair.

Stephen Colbert's Ben & Jerry's ice cream, Americone Dream, is delicious.

I'm recording some TV here and there. Almost done getting season one of Big Love, which is a great little show. Right now I'm taping Wolf because it's on and because I love that movie.

I don't care for the new look over at IMDB.

I'm pretty tired. When this movie is over I'm going to bed.

Zombies 3: Mall Walkers (an expansion pack for the board game Zombies!!!) is awesome. Just enough new cards and territories to make the original game really interesting once again. I sort of wish it came wiht more zombies, but oh well.

Took the "everything test" that's been going around. I found it woefully incorrect. As I was telling [livejournal.com profile] paulcurtis, I only like quizzes that compliment me. ;-]

I wish I could watch lots and lots of Bullwinkle cartoons. They are so funny.

I don't like the new look over at IMDB either. But yes, Bullwinkle rocks. : )

As far as your story goes, it's nice and creepy. I think you're doing a fine job, but serial killer stories aren't one of my faves, so it's kind of hard for me to get into. But that's me, not you. I want to see what happens.

Not sure why I'm in a specific mood for Bullwinkle, but I am. It has such a cool nostalgic feel to it.

You are far from alone when it comes to not liking serial killer stories. You'd think I'd know by now how many people skeeve them and not take it personally. But no...I must take everything personally. ;-/

There is that about Bullwinkle. I've just loved it since it was first on. So funny and sharp, and just plain silly.

Definitely don't take it personally. As usual, I like your character development and I like the parallel first person chapters, but when Mikey starts ogling and killing, yeah, I get skeeved.

To be honest, it's kind of freaking me out how easy this is to write. Aside from the killing, he's based on someone I know.

Yikes! Even without the killing, Mikey's a pretty creepy guy.

Yes, he is.
