vivienAh, I slept like a log last night. Mostly because I could once again breathe through my nose. However I must say thank you, codeine laden cough syrup! I am still low energy girl - I did get a bit of homework stuff done, but not the laundry. Oh well.
I'm going to meet up with folks to see RotK on the Imax screen today. I'm looking forward to it, since I just now finished rereading LotR again. And I mean rereading - I even read all the poems and songs that as a young 'un I tended to skip ;)
I saw Hidalgo yesterday.
I thought overall it was a good movie, if not brilliant. It was a bit too long - I thought the whole "rescue the girl" part was unnecessary. Viggo was amazing - he is a fabulous actor. I noticed at the beginning when he was speaking Lakota that he was not very fluent sounding - kind of stilted - and I thought "huh, I thought he was better at languages than that." But then in the desert when he has the vision and reclaims his heritage, there came the fluent Lakota. That was pretty brilliant in a subtle way. The horse was also great, and man, you can tell they had a great working relationship. So I would recommend it. It was a very beautiful movie, and it had a good message and great acting.
I made the new icon during my "awake due to nose failure" stretch between 1:30am - 3:30am. It makes me giggle.
