I'm kind of here! And I just want to register my disappointment at the news that making out with Jake Gyllenhaal will apparently not make you immortal. :(

Hope all's well otherwise on the internet!

I saw Juno last night. SPOILER ALERT!: I hate teenage girls. No, really, I HATE teenage girls. When I wasn't busy gagging on Juno's snappy, biting dialogue, I was resisting the urge to step several times on her face, but everyone else in the movie (JASON BATEMAN ♥) was shockingly lovely. This might be the monthly fluctuating hormones talking, but I think Jennifer Garner was trying EXTRA hard to make me cry. She is a pretty lady.

I also saw Alvin and the Chipmunks. Hahaha. To my credit, I had company in the form of 7 year old boys, and according to them, it was an Oscar-worthy masterpiece. One of them was literally sitting at the edge of his seat, gripping the seat in front of him. What do I know, anyway?

So this is my holiday post before I get on a plane for France! I'll maybe make time to stand in another creative spot in the apartment to catch enough WiFi for Tsubasa when it's out (I AM SO MISSING HOLIC), but if not, I hope everyone has a safe and warm and wonderful non-denominational holiday fun time! ♥

If I sit in THIS EXACT SPOT AND DON'T MOVE, I pick up a wireless signal that lasts for about 30 seconds out of every minute. Which is 9 bajillion times better than 56k, in my opinion.

Started watching Veronica Mars to pick myself back up from the utter suck that was TV this season, excluding those 2 episodes of Grey's Anatomy with Gale Harold, which also sucked, but: Gale Harold. So far, so good, though! Kristin Bell's amazingly cute, and yum, atmosphere. :9

I'M GONNA READ REBORN. I'M GONNA. Shonen crap fluff subtext fun time, here I come!

ALSO: OH MY GOD, Stephen Colbert's ice cream is SO GOOD, HOLY CRAP.

I just bought a ticket - I'm going to France over X-mas break! Yay!

Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrated it! To those who didn't, happy last Thursday that you probably didn't spend gaining 18 million pounds, like me. :D

Unfortunately, Thanksgiving = 56k connection and "family time", which is why the long absence. If I could've handled being on the internet for more than two minutes without wanting to rip my phone line out of the wall in frustration, I would've made a note of it.

Anyway, have a French paper due tomorrow, so once that's cleared out, we'll return to your regularly scheduled translating/inane commenting/mooching off of other people schedule. ♥

DAMN YOU, MARIE OSMOND! D:

Outside of that, I discovered just the other day that Le Petit Prince, one of my top two all time favorite books, was actually written on Long Island, where I'm from. Which is SUPER swell, because my other favorite is Catch-22 and guess where Joseph Heller was from? Go, Long Island, go!

Anyway, this has put me in a very literary mood - rec me your favorite book(s)? ♥

Holic is TODAY!? Eeeeee!
