This Creature is Lore

Istari imprisoned in some trading card thing.  Wha...whahaha... hehh.  X*)
I'm particularly concerned for Dances With Gulls and Mr. "A Q-Tip Is So A Staff" there.

On a less cruel note, I totally want to hug Sylvester McCoy.  He is going to be a great Radagast.
(Curumo also tells me he's annoying, which bodes very well for his ability to portray Radagast.)

And on a completely awesome note, I was already aware that McKellan and McCoy appeared onstage as Lear and the Fool respectively a few years ago, but only recently did I realize PBS Great Performances has a free film version of it online.  AND it's directed by Trevor Nunn (I have a huge crush on Nunn's Feste, who plays a wee accordian and is also Ben Kingsley).  OMFGTNTLEVENTY.  I'm going to have to reread the play before watching it though.

Happy New Year, internet!

None of my friends were doing anything of note, so since fate had decreed a quiet and reflective evening, I rewatched American Beauty, a film I've not seen in over 11 years, and found it better than ever. I also attempted some writing and began a project I'd been putting off. And started to take the rough storyboards for my comic and attempt finished products.

This morning all last semester's grades are finally posted online. For a certain class, it was actually a pleasant surprise that I received a B. That's never been the case. The one other time I received a B I was rather upset. Guess it's all a matter of perspective.

Meanwhile, to compensate, the online score distribution graph says I was the only one in my History class to get a perfect score on the final essay. That's what I like to see on the first day of the new year. *picture my icon preening*
