Won't You Play Some Quidditch With Me?

At the right is the poster I've been wanting for ages and ages, but it's only been released in France. I saw it for the v. first time on eBay a week ago, and it just sold for $68. Waaaahhhhhhh!!! It will NEVER, EVER be mine. But it should be mine. <sniff> Why don't they just print up a zillion of them, along w/ the ones of Harry, Hermione, and Ron, and sell them all over?? They'd make a bazillion dollars!! Stupid French poster.

And the spending madness continues. It was about 7:30pm last night and I was online (my DSL mysteriously returned; I'm not sure if it's back, or if it was a fluke that it was gone), when I realized that I had meant to go to Costco after work to see if I could get FotRX for $21.99 like Jade did. (Online, it was $25.49.) So I rushed to Costco, found that it was indeed going to be $25.49 (le sigh), and also grabbed the Chicago soundtrack.

There was a guy behind me in line, rather unkempt; he looked like a cross between Jon Lovitz and Dustin Hoffman. He saw the soundtrack and was all, "Have you seen the movie?" "Yes," I enthused. "Did you like it?" he asked. "It was great," I said. He didn't add any commentary to this; I thought he asked either because he had seen it also or because he was thinking about seeing it. "I think it's going to win the Oscar," he said in the same kind of no-emotion way. "Oh, really?" I said. "Well, I haven't seen it, but yes," he answered. So, you heard it here first. Crazy Guy at Costco says Chicago will win Best Picture at the Oscars.

Have just spoken to the Verizon people. They're like, "Uh ... you can use your DSL? But I'm showing here that your account is on 'Slow' which means that you shouldn't be able to." And then there was just silence on both ends.

Which lil' hobbit is your loooooove match?

Too bad he is totally and completely gay. His having a wife is just a front. I have pictures. Jade got Frodo. This means we can never double-date, as our dates ditch us in favor of each other. Quandry.
