randomness

The problem with not posting regularly is that I then feel like I can't post anything until it's the BEST POST EVER ...so I don't post at all.

Stuff:
- I swear, the scene in Half Blood Prince where the vampire comes to Slughorn's party - Rowling clearly wrote it purely so that she could have her Italian vampire called "Sanguini" and giggle at her awesome Latin pun.

- My son is now walking and talking - for a given definition thereof. He is, as always, extremely cute.

- Despite being halfway through Murdoch Mysteries, Elementary, Newsroom, and Despicable Me, I am eagerly rewatching Heroes - which I haven't seen in its entirety (ie: the first season, which is ALL THAT EXISTS) since it was first broadcast. It's kind of awesome.

- Finally finished the blanket that took me two damn years, and can move on to other crochet projects that interest me a bit more. (Steadfastly ignoring the cross-stitch project that's been half-complete for four years now.)

- Will put Christmas tree up today. Will then spend three weeks keeping one-year-old from destroying Christmas tree.


(Excuse me. The kidlet is demanding that I read him a story.)

Haha- yes, Heroes went srsly downhill, to the point where I just gave up. I see there's a 'Heroes Reborn' on, now...because, y'know, there are no new shows to make, apparently. Let's just rehash things that once worked. (What is with the tv show/ film industry at the moment? It's all about remaking shows and movies slightly differently, e.g. the Spiderman movies, apparently MiB soon...?)

I feel your pain- I have a barely-started baby blanket that my child will one day be able to use. For its own kid.

re. Christmas tree- get a fireguard. Best things to stop kids/ pets getting to fires, and also trees. :)

I believe my mother is still working on a first anniversary present for Dad...

Yeah, the remakes thing has gone kind of insane. I'd much rather see a new show than yet another remake. (Of course, I shouldn't complain - technically, Buffy is a remake of the movie.)

I really need to rewatch Heroes one of these days. It was a great single season series and I'm glad that they never made any more seasons that might have ruined its perfection... ;)

Absolutely. *nods*

Oh, absolutely. And I am totally OK with that. :D

I can't believe I didn't notice his name until this read-through...
