Not much going on…

Nov 29, 2003

I signed up for 6 months of eHarmony.com. Hopefully, something good will come out of it. I’ve had several “matches” that I just don’t see the compatibility in, but I guess that’s why I need the service….my judgment isn’t too keen. *sigh* We’ll see…

Look at me!

New Thanksgiving pics are up. Follow the link to “Jenn’s Pics” from the Wreath Directory. I even jazzed up the wreath to make finding it easier.

Happy Thanksgiving

Well, Survivor: Pearl Islands officially sucks without Rupert. Even though the episode tonight had “drama” and tension, it was just dry. Jon is a loser. He’s less of a mastermind, and more of “the idiot I want to take to the final two with me because I’ll definitely win” guy. Even with his little story, it was dry and lacking. Hopefully it will regain its entertainment factor next week.

I bought the new Anne Rice book, Blood Canticle, but I haven’t read a single word of it yet. I’m dreading the outcome, to be honest. Her last SEVERAL books haven’t been up to her usual standard. I’ll let you know by Monday how it was.

Enjoy your turkey!!

Happy Birthday, Todd!!

With all the excitement of Thanksgiving, and the impending doom of Christmas, we must remember those who have a birthday so close to the events.

Happy Day, hon, and I hope everything you wished for comes your way very soon. You’re terrific, and I love ya!

Spoilers for LOTR: The Return of the King…

…if you haven’t read it yet…..Just read the Newsweek article on ROTK and it mentions things that are cut from the movie.
—The Healing House is gone. Mildly necessary, but I won’t argue too much. No, wait, yes I will. This is where Aragorn heals Eowyn and Faramir (not to mention Merry) and I feel that it’s important because it shows the reader/viewer just how powerful a man/king is Aragorn is.
—Also cut is the the murder of Saruman by Wormtongue. VERY important. OBVIOUSLY important so no need for me to comment further.
—The Scouring of the Shire wasn’t even FILMED. UGH! I guess the movie wraps up with the “Ring scene” then the wedding, and maybe a Cate Blanchett/Galadriel voiceover(?)

I will, of course, love the movie more than anything in the world when I see it, but the lack of these stories will be in my mind and I think I’ll end up re-re-rereading the book.

*sigh*

I will go into the weekend (a day early) with a heavy heart. Rupert, just know that I have loved you since the beginning, and I will always consider you the winner of Survivor: Pearl Islands.
