This isn't new news, but I'm just finding out about it. Sam Raimi is going to be directing a tv mini-series of Terry Goodkind's Sword of Truth series, starting with the first book, Wizard's First Rule. This makes me almost as happy as finding out about The Dark is Rising. All my favorite fantasy stories are being translated to film!

Last night was our monthly horror movie night. We started off with Audition, a Japanese horror flick Fantm had been talking about for a couple of months, and finished with Skinwalkers, a werewolf movie Mike wanted to see.

I'm sitting at our table, typing on the beautiful laptop my husband gave me, listening to him play his guitar while I sip champagne (Dom = <3), watch the doxies sleep all curled up into a tri-colored ball in their bed, and occasionally get up to check on my dinner. I'm making cooking pasta in white wine (pinot grigio, if you care), chicken broth, and a bit of turkey drippings. It smells HEAVENLY. When the pasta is cooked, I'm going to mix it with some Gouda, and there you have it. This evening is the epitomy of contentment. I'm not deliriously happy, all giddy and giggly, but every fiber of my being is content right now. I'm in my nice, warm, pretty house with my husband and my wiener babies. I have a glass of my favorite champagne to go with my simple, but tasty, dinner, and nothing that I have to be doing. Sure, I could catch up on the mountain of laundry or clean a bathroom or two, but I don't have to if I don't want to, and what I want to do right now is exactly what I am doing. Sitting, listening, watching, and sniffing.
36) If you have to take a test over four-chapters-worth of material in a subject you are shaky on, to say the least, waiting until two hours before you leave to take the test is not recommended. If you don't know where your textbook is and have to hunt for it so you can commence the last-minute studying, you need to get better organized. IMMEDIATELY.
PS: Waiting until the second-to-last day to take the test is also not recommended.
