"Si on changeait de jeux, si on jouait à vivre..."

In a less squeeful post, we went and saw HP again last night. I have still not recovered from the Snape love, and the cuffs love (will icon very soon). Possibly it's actually gone worse. But while on a first screening I managed to cling to the liking I have of Hermione, on the second viewing it is absolutely impossible. In this movie, she is unbearable. Absolutely unbearable.

Have watched Blood - the Last Vampire, a fairly good anime that I bought due to its cheapness on CDiscount. Is it the pilot for a series? Because it ought to be. Am very intrigued by the interaction between David and Saya - the bonds that are born out of forced cooperation, I suppose.

Am also going through Profit again and loving it. Oh how I'm loving it. The ninetiesness is rather amusing, now, but it does not detract from the script. Such good scripts. I can only deplore the lack of audio commentaries.

We went to an American grocery store yesterday (thanks for the address heikki_cheren!) and bought Dr. Pepper (hurray!), cream cheese, crackers, mango chutney and bagels. Hmmmcreamcheese. Can't wait to taste mango chutney, too, which I don't think I have before. I'll trust Joey, and the "mango" bit, that it's something to look forward too. And then we stopped by this English library and I kinda couldn't help myself and bought the Chronicles of Narnia and the Saga of the Icelanders. Two huge books. Very pricy. But I truly couldn't help myself.

Which incidentally means that my Icelandic story is officially on hiatus until I'm done reading the Icelandic saga and I can rework it all accordingly. Since I've just started on the Saga of the Grail (well, I'm a good 100 pages into it and Merlin has just been born... worst is? I'm really enjoying it), I think the hiatus isn't about to end. I'm such a sucker for myths.

Any idea if they are identical twins in the books? It's too bad they didn't even picked real sisters.
I remembered "Padma". So it's Padma and Parvati.
And now I'm pretty sure the whole Ron dating XX bored me so much that I blocked from my memory who he was dating. Now I know it wasn't a Patil at all (just their best friend). Weird how I remember Snape's scenes way better.

No clue, no.
Yes! That's it.
Well, you know, when you mentioned Lavender it took me a good long while to remember while she'd be in HP6. I may have cared so much that I forgot. Snape... and his Cuffs of Doom. Whoever did wardrobe for GoF? I love them. And he isn't evil, dammit! Surely you must agree?
