Huzzah! Wow, what was shaping up to be a horrible afternoon just turned around. My “Da Vinci’s Notebook” CDs just arrived! ::revels in the joy::
Yay, now the fact that my gradutation hat is hideous doesn’t matter anymore! ::grooves to the tunes::
As I try to divert my attention from the fact that today is graduation day, I am pleasantly distracted by the observation that there are now 20 days until “Order of the Phoenix” and 200 days until “Return of the King”. Word.
Also: 37 days until “The Well of Lost Plots” (Jasper Fforde) and 144 days until “Monstrous Regiment” (Terry Pratchett). w00t to the 00t.

Cool tip I learned randomly from the ReelFX guys:
When typing in a dotcom address, just type the domain word (i.e. “Google”) then press Ctrl+Enter. It’ll type in the “http://www.” and “.com” for you. Nerdy fun!
Finding Nemo = awesome! The turtles are my new heroes, and I swear, Dori is my clone. Yay for the exceptionally spacey! Yay for those distractable by singsongs and shiny objects!
I went with a big group of fellow seniors, but the rest of the theatre was full top to bottom with kidlets of all ages. The perfect audience for a kiddie movie like this, because you get gales of laughter at the funny bits and the occasional kid asking Mommy questions about the movie in a loud voice, which in any other situation would be annoying as hell, but in this situation is cute beyond words. Go see it!
I wuv woo, Pixar… *is filled with t00by loff*
You spend your days making naughty LJ icons whilst reading and/or writing slash fic. Go you! Cassie Claire gave you a crusade, and damned if you’re going to let her down.
What kind of Tolkien fan are you?

Quote of the Day:
Monica: I have noticed this seems to be the case with most fanartists: when we have a problem, we just draw some naked pretty boys and all is solved. Gotta love us.
Sam: I think nakedness as a way of combating flamewars is a fantastic idea. From now on, when anyone yells at me, I shall draw naked women. Even if it doesn’t stop them yelling, I’ll be happier.
