ARGH

My internet connection when to hell last night... couldnt' do squat for trying. And again this morning so i called the help line. Buddy says "is Primrose street anywhere near you?" Um yeah next street over. So there's trouble on a line there and that's probably what's affecting my connection. At least i know it isn't me. Service may be sporadic if it isn't fixed by tonight.

Two movies i want to see... Chick flick.. Love Actually and that new sea adventure movie, Master and Commander with Russell Crowe which will probably suck.

About Master and Commander

I have seen the online and onset previews and had very good reports from a tusted source... if you like action movies this will not disappoint

Hmmm well i liked Pirates of the Caribbean which was semi-adventure, much to my surprise actually and i've seen the trailer of M&C and it looked like it might have some good effects. I'm not usually into action movies with explosions and vehicle chases and the like but this seemed different. Thanks for the comments. :)

Never heard of "Master and Commander" but the trailer for "Love Actually" was AAAWWWFFFULLL, if that's the one I'm thinking of. I remember seeing Martine McCutcheon in a French maid's outfit and thinking "ooh that looks good" and then the stream of risible innuendo, bumbling Hugh Grantisms and entire-plot-given-away-in-trailer cliches came spewing forth from the screen. Why do all British romantic comedies seem to feature some kind of bumbling posho as the lead male character? And why is it always bloody Hugh Grant? Garrgh!

I don't know why it's always Hugh Grant. But it *does* have Alan Rickman, Liam Neeson and Colin Firth!!! /makes note to self... bring mop ;)

I love the way you write :) Risible, indeed ;-) When I met tvor I asked if you used to write Corrie updates and she said yes. I remember writing to you aeons ago and telling you how much I enjoyed your turn at the helm :))

The above comment of mine was directed towards naturalbornkaos but with careful rearrangement, LJ placed it so the meaning might be ambiguous. Sorry, tvor :/

[tvor.livejournal.com]

Looked ok to me :) i knew what you meant anyway :)

[naturalbornkaos.livejournal.com]

Really? I can't remember that far back, I was probably drunk (as I was when I wrote most of my updates!).

Thankyou for the compliment though. :) Nice to know I'm of some use!

[acey.livejournal.com]

And you look pretty in pink too!

[naturalbornkaos.livejournal.com]

Oh thanks.

It took four years of intensive therapy to get over that... and now one comment and a nifty winking icon is all it took to bring the full horror of the incident flooding back.

The black! The black!

[tvor.livejournal.com]

But the Yellow Rocked!!! And it was pretty fucking loud and all ;)

[acey.livejournal.com]

I have one word for you.

Puce. :)

[tvor.livejournal.com]

Ermmm if you're referring to the icon, that's not him (although you probably knew that) but you did inadvertently bring back a moment of madness from Sept. 2000. But to be fair, he is a man of his word and even if his word was drunkenly given that he would wear the pink tshirt, he gamely followed through even if it was off his body again in 3 minutes flat LOL!

[acey.livejournal.com]

I remembered from past conversations/pics of pings that Mr Rattler was very attached to black, so that's why I was kidding about pink. I didn't think that was him in the pic, unless he has had a lot of surgery ;-)

[melly-issa.livejournal.com]

oooh, I can't wait to see love actually

Saw it after work. Review to follow if i don't beat the crap out of my internet connection and/or LJ's flaky servers first. :|
