Money Makes the World Go Round *

aaaand a new post! Wow!!

My friend over at ibotherthee manages a new post a week, where I am averaging one a month maybe?

I should be ashamed. But I am too tired right now.

I spent a busy busy afternoon watching my pretties that just came in the mail.

Yes I gave in to temptation and purchased the Angel Special Edition Box Set. In my defense, it was on sale one day only and I had to make a fast decision.

So far enjoying the pretty box, and the wonderfull fullscreen, beautifully clear and unpixally video.

It looks so nice sitting beside its sister...

(I took this photo with my new Blackberry and sent it to my computer. Yay technology!)

MAN have I spent alot of money latley.

No time to think of a witty ending for this post - if any of my endings have been witty, I don't know, probably not. Off to rehearsal for Earnest! (the last one *tear*)

Restless

I have had some pretty epic dreams lately. There was the one were me and my friend Anna were escaping this evil house, and had to evade a religous cult who wanted to drug us to keep us quiet, avoid a pen of cheetahs, climb through this crazy mountainous valley (oxymoron yes, but In my dream it totally worked) and ended up being award a cure for a friend who was stil suffering in the evil house by these god-like people (think "the powers that be" from Angel).

Last nights dream was very Buffy-esque. There was this snake/lizard dragon thing that was trying to kill me (it had already succeded in killing someone before me) and so I was running aorund my neighbourhood trying to figure out how to defeat it and I met up with some guy who I beleive represented Xander (but i can't remember who it was, or if it was an imaginary person) then my Taekwondo instructer, who I think represented Giles (the training aspect) and my friend Anna was Willow because when we decided to just gather up the people from my DoJang to attack the dragon with swords I needed to call Anna to find out how to kill it (beheading, go for the eyes, ect). Sadly the morning mayhem woke me up before the conclusion to my dream.

I would love to know what these dreams mean (besides that I am maybe a little too obsessed with Buffy the Vampire Slayer... but Spike wasn't in this dream, so thats new! Progress maybe?) but these are way to complicated to look up in any dream dictionary.

I shall have to search deep within myself to discover their true and deeper meaning.

Ok, thats enough of that, I'll just let myself enjoy these dreams at face value.

"Is Everyone In This Room Very Stoned?"

I just finished watching the last episode of Season 5 of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Oh. My. God.

I definitly balled my eyes out. A-MAZING ending, but oh so terrible...

Gotta love Spike tho.

I'm posting now cus I don't want to go to bed so soon after such a such episode, and I don't have much really to say other than...

Curse you Joss Whedon for your amazingly addictive genius-cruelty inspired writing! And those actors, with there amazing acting skills, there no help...making the words come alive, and creating attachements to the fictional characters that are either gonna die, do something to make you mad/frusterated, or your gonna love'em and be tortured cus there just fictional.

Dang thats a good show.

It has been a while since I have last posted, has it not? Well after finishing Candide I read Something Rotten by Alan Gratz. It was alright - It was a mystery and I am not a huge mystery fan. It was Shakespeare themed though, so that was cool; it was what made me pick it up in the first place. So that took my a while to get through, and then I didn't/don't really have anything to say about it, so no blog. Then I read American God's by Neil Gaiman, and it was a fairly long book, though it was pretty good, so that took a while.

The book I read after that is the book that I will review today- My Fair Godmother by Janette Rallison. After Savannah's older sister steals her boyfriend, Savannah is given three wishes by her "fair" godmother (Chrissy, the godmother, hadn't done well enough in school to be consider a "fairy" godmother, just a "fair" one). Chrissy misinterpets Savannah's wishes and sends her back into medival times as Cinderella, and Snow White, and it is not as nice as the fairy tales make it sound. A boy from Savannah's school gets sent back to the medieval age by Chrissy and Savannah as to help him so they can both get home. It was a very cute book, with a very easy to get into kind of style of story telling. I liked the characters, and how you got to see the boyfriend stealing from the perspective of both sisters which gave the characters a more rounded feeling. The story had good pacing, and a interesting plot. I liked it very much, and will look for other books by Janette Rallison. Oh! And I discovered this book from the blog of one of my favorite authors, Shannon Hale! Here is a link to the interview she did with Janette Rallison!

Now I think I am going to go indulge in my current obsession, Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I bought the Chosen collection over ebay a few weeks ago, and I am already into season 5. Spike is my favorite =). And I will just leave it at that or I will be drooling all over the keyboard...
