Too wired to sleep right now. Own fault, o'ded on sugar. What is it about
sugar cravings? You resist, resist. But chocolat iced brownies are calling. Then you give in - edgy, and jumpy about things. Also possibly the source of nightmares. Not good. Sugar = the root of all evil. Next to cafeeine. At any rate things are grating more on my nerves tonight for some reason.

Thought about doing that "The Three Things" MEME. But couldn't come up with answers to several of the questions. Also, not so great at memes I don't create myself - they have rules and stuff.

Skipped the "Legend of Earthsea" - sounds a little cheesy and I don't like the
main leads. Also after reading randomways review, who needs the grief? I picked other entertaining cheese to watch tonight.

Warm thoughts go out to herself tonight. I'm not sure what's wrong, but I hope you are feeling better soon.

Skipping "The Legend of Earthsea" was a particularly good idea unless you just wanted a really bad fanfic to make fun of. Seriously, if this had been a fanfic there would have been cries of outrage over the non-canon story and everyone being OOC.

Here's an idea: Tomorrow we organize a countrywide boycott of Part 2, and instead everyone, during the time it airs, can read the books instead! The first two, which the movie's based on, are really slim. I'm sure everyone could get through them in around 2 hours. Start passing out those flyers! ;-)

I must go dig out my copies. That could take awhile, because my book filing system is based on Chaos Theories.
I haven't read these in years, but I liked them, and I'm a fan of Ursula LeGuin. I was kind of looking forward to the miniseries, but not now.

I turned it on briefly Monday night, but then off again.
Looked somewhat cheesy. Didn't watch the next night.
Shame, had actually been looking forward to it over the summer.

Why are fantasy/sci-fi books so hard to make good movie
adaptations of?

I can think of maybe one or two off-hand that I liked.
1. Lord of The Rings
and....
okay struggling for a second one. So make that one.

Got it - Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban. That was the second.
