I haven't updated this in ages. Well, okay, ten days. No excuse really. Just tired and no need to really talk about anything, or when I do have the need, get so tired that I reach the point where typing it up seems like just a little too much effort.

I went to see House of Flying Daggers this evening. I liked it, didn't love it, but definitely enjoyed it. Whoever did the score and especially the sound deserve something, because it was really, really good. Zhang Ziyi is both gorgeous and very talented. <3

Definietly looking for a job a lot harder than I was. My imagination keeps running away with me. It's not helping.

Oscars tomorrow. Feeling apathetic but of course I will watch anyway.

Finally, some quite seriously belated happy birthday wishes to [livejournal.com profile] maybethemoon and [livejournal.com profile] smut_queen and some only slightly belated wishes to [livejournal.com profile] ladylisse. I hope you all had great days. :)

Reasons to love the BBC News website #89754893: The use of the word 'profligacy' to describe Daryl Tuffey's recent bowling performance. Sports headlines that have you reaching (or clicking) for a dictionary. Love it.

Also, I don't put a lot of store in astology but I do find it quite intriguing. For example, I'm a Gemini and the usual definition given for a Gemini is actually quite accurate for me. However, maybe not this accurate:

'You have a quick inventive mind and have a strong need to communicate and meet new experiences. You are charming and inquisitive but can be superficial when assessing others. Although you are very logical and rational, you often seem to be possessed of conflicting personalities - one minute affectionate, the next cold and impersonal. You are restless and have a tendency to be inconsistent - often pursing several courses of action at once. You have the Mutable qaulity which gives you the talent of change and adaptibility.'

Now bar the charming, I think that's actually very true. Especially the bits about the conflicting personalities, superficiality and restlessness. It's a little freaky. However saying that, I'm not exactly coping with change all that well at the moment.

However, that definition is from the back of bookmark, so ... yeah.

Right, need to do some food shopping. Say what you will about the last few months, I've done a hell of a lot more cooking and I've really been enjoying it.

Comics come out today. *twitch* Nightwing 104, Outsiders 21 ... [livejournal.com profile] scans_daily has made me a total Nightwing DC whore.

This song is a mix of Green Day's 'Boulevard of Broken Dreams' and Oasis's 'Wonderwall', with little bits of Travis and an even smaller bit of Eminem (!) put in, and it really works.
