Tidbits

Went to the TA museum of Art yesterday with Mel. Had a lot of fun walking around some of the exhibitions - especially the "One Family" photograph exhibition and the contemporary Italian art one. The impressionist constant exhibition was very beautiful as well, and I loved some of the cubist stuff Mel didn't. We both loved Jackson Pollock's paintings, and the Chagall paintings as well. We spent about two hours there and after that we went to "Cup o' Joe" across the street for a sandwich and diet coke (which made Mel go "I'm at "Joe" and I don't get coffee?!"). We walked back to Begin road and I caught the bus as Mel went over to the train station.

I'm finally writing "Gold Dust", the HDM fic I've been thinking of for so long. It's only the beginning, but it's coming on nicely, and I hope It'll be in a condition good enough for others' reading in a while.

I hope I'll have some time to go buy myself something new to wear on New year's eve, but my hopes are not high. Oh, well. We are the hosts this year, since my grandma doesn't have the strength to make the entire preparations. I'm planning on making wine-punch to make everybody extra-cheery.

I also had a dream last night which drew power from all sorts of stuff - starting with HP and ending with "Kyle XY" which I watched last night - a beautiful beach with dunes on a cliff, me trying to hide myself and some objects and a feeling of peace. Hmmm.

T.V. annoyance - Two episodes of "The Dead Zone" got to 99% and got stuck there... It's been there for three days, and I haven't been able to find another torrent to download them from. ARGH.

Do you have VLC? It can play the 99% episodes, and I doubt you'll be missing much with that 1% that isn't down (maybe other players can play the unfinished downloads as well, but you should use any excuse you can find to get VLC)

And dude, Kyle XY rocks my socks :)

Oh, and congrats on the Perach job!! (I'm too lazy to start another comment on one of your relevant posts)

1 - I've no idea what's VLC, I use the windows media player, and I'm quite happy with it.

2 - Hey, cool, I thought I was the only one who watches "Kyle XY"! I really like that show, it's sweet..

3 - Thanks! *coughlazycough*... :)

1. How be in a geeky mood and not know what VLC is? It's only the best player ever, and it's totally free for download! Check it out here:

2. I have to admit, it's my current favorite downloaded series (don't have Yes, so can't watch it on TV). I'm currently at the last episode of the first season, where are you?

Why Yes? I watch on channel 3, ep.5 or so.
