Max pointed me towards this article about the “new” trend of parents buying their daughters breast enlargements as a graduation gift. As Max said, this isn’t really news. One of my good friends had it done after our college graduation a few years ago. It was kinda shocking to me, to tell you the truth.…

Much ado about e-mail. I just logged in to my old Yahoo! Mail account to discover that they’ve upped the storage limit to 100MB and unveiled a new look-and-feel. I guess they must be feeling the heat from Gmail. Nevertheless, I’m thinking I’ll probably keep the Yahoo address as my spam trap and try to…

Didn’t find anything interesting in my blog routine today, but I did discover three more invites from Gmail! They’re tossing these things out left and right. Who wants?

Running UpdateYou may have noticed a considerable hole in my training schedule. Basically, the pain in my left foot I experienced after my last run (and the one previous) got worse and worse over several days. I’m fairly certain it’s from the way I “pronate” (i.e. roll) my foot to the outside. I could barely…

Big Brother was awesome tonight! Merlin got evicted but showed up on stage with his mouth taped shut and sporting a “Free the Refugees” sign. He refused to talk or answer any questions.

Woohoo! The Snook and I just scored three Gmail invites each. I’ve already sent two out. (Kel and Moire, check your e-mail!) Any of you guys want one? Apologies to the randoms and the lurkers, but frequent contributors will have priority.

Just enjoying the long weekend… and the fact that I officially have a job post-Epson. Huzzah!

Oh, right, so back to the movie… It was fantastic! At first I was gasping with how quickly the story moved and how much material was getting cut out. (Trivia: Aunt Marge is also the Trunchbull!) I can see the need to tighten it up, though. I was also struck by how much the kids…

Swish and flick!Well, that was AMAZING. I absolutely loved the film. But more on that in a minute. First, I need to confirm that yes, I did dress in costume. And yes, I was the only one. Not only that, but the theater was probably only 20% full anyway. So I was a big dork.…

I think I’m having cold feet. It’s just over twelve hours til the first showing of Prisoner of Azkaban and everything’s ready: the scarf is finished, my badges have been ironed-on, my skirt is pressed. Now I’m just fearing that I’m going to look like a really big dork. What if there aren’t a lot…
