LastExile and Bad Discs

bloodsong1Or...a rundown from Christmas Eve to Christmas Day, 1300 hours. Hee!
Made the noodle candy Thursday night. A perfect choice, as Mom hadn't made any. Spent Friday morning cleaning house and wrapping preents, parentals showed up about 1 pm. Gave Dad his box of track and Mom her wicker trays, complete with half the noodle candy. Thrills were expressed. Mom and Dad brought us a sampling of their Christmas cookies, snowmen Peeps for me (yum!) and presents. We visited for about an hour and the kittens NEVER showed their faces. I spotted them less then ten minutes after M and D had left. Bums, I wanted to show them off. They're so cute! Mom did take some digi-shots, hopefully I'll be seeing them in my inbox soon. Family portraits are always nice.
Rest of the Eve was spent lounging around and playing Katamari. Brought the rest of the gifts after kiddo went down for the night, wrapped them and arranged them in front of the fireplace. I had fun doing that. Wolf and I went to bed after midnight.
This morning, we didn't get up until almost 8 am. Comments about kiddo's restraint were shared and as soon as I walked out, he was out the door. Kiddo scored well; besides the matchbox sets and leappad books, he got two Power Ranger toys from auntie and Wolf's grandmother *sighs, shakes head*, a Buzz Lightyear shuttle that makes way too much noise from paternal grandma and a workbench playset from my parents. I checked out the back of the PR toys and saw the blurb about a high school teacher re-donning the Ranger suit. Damn, now I'm curious. I had this thing for the original Blue Ranger, Billy and he's the only one I know of that would do well as a teacher. Of course, that was from the original and Ninjazord incarnations. I stopped watching when the time-shift happened and they went Zeo. *shudder* Oh, those jade-green eyes. Mmmmmm.
Anyhew, there's a LastExile marathon today on G4TTV. All 26 episodes and it started three and a half hours ago. Half hour episode and three commercial breaks per episode. I'm tempted to nap through the rest of the first ten, we've seen them. Or play KD.
Oh, forgot one little thing. The Chronicles of Norrath we got for ourselves? Yeah. Bum disc. Wouldn't even read it. *tempted to take katamari and roll up Sams Club* We have to exchange it tomorrow. Oh, JOY! RAPTURE!! *breaks out Wolf's SCA armor* It does come with a serious multiplay option. It's Evercrack-based, after all. Hee!
*checks over her shoulder* And Wolf's out on the couch. I think I'll grab a pillow and curl up in one of the sunbeams streaking through our apartment.
Blessed be, everyone!

Date: 2004-12-27 05:57 pm (UTC)I used to work with the guy who was his stunt-double on the first two movies.
"Billy" is apparently a very nice guy.
The guy who played Tommy was on the Sexiest list for that year.
Date: 2004-12-29 01:02 am (UTC)Hm...Wolf does SCA?
Date: 2004-12-28 07:08 am (UTC)I occasionally cross paths with the SCA-ers in NC and PA. I go with a group called Two-Chucks. We're kinda crazy. >>
*tells Wolf*
Date: 2004-12-29 01:09 am (UTC)B: "You know them?"
W: "All too well. *explains* If you enjoy being hit with rattan on bare skin, join the Two-Chucks."
B: *snicker*
Well, well, well, Mr. Elf. I didn't know you swung like THAT.
Hey, I SAID we were crazy...
