Well, I told myself that I wanted to post SOMETHING everyday (well, maybe every WEEKday). So...

Hi.

Actually, I'm freaking addicted to these two games that my boyfriend dropped onto my desktop. One is called "Double" and it's some kind of MahJong game (I guess), where there is a mountain of stacked bricks that have pictures on them. The idea is to match bricks, but only ones that are suitably exposed, until there aren't any left. Addictive. The other is called "Jewel" (and has nothing to do with bad poetry, Ang Lee westerns, or glaring image changes). This one is kind of Tetris-y in that there is a grid of different jewels and you've got to swap neighboring jewels in order to get 3 or more of a kind in line - when that happens, they disappear and new ones take their place. Addictive. Like, HOURS DISAPPEAR kind of addictive.

Oh, and I watched the Mines of Moria sequence from "The Fellowship of the Ring" (EXTENDED EDITION, of course...) this afternoon. WHEW! Even seeing it for the 8th or 9th time, my heart still races and a tear comes to my eye. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I'm not that upset that (stupid) "A Beautiful Mind" won the Oscar for Best Picture, because I KNOW what the best movie of 2001 was.

That still doesn't mean that I will EVER watch "A Beautiful Mind", though... (stupid piece of...)
