WHISPER

Well not cry. My birthday's been fine, but that song just popped into my head. I turned 22 today. Not that exciting. Seems after my 21st birthday all these others are just going to be getting older. Well, i guess, at 25 i'll get lower car insurance rates, right. That could be something to look forward to. :wink: I had a good birthday this year though. Friday, I spent the night with my folks and we stayed up late playing Texas Hold 'em. My brother and his wife were there to play as well. We didn't play for actual money but at the end of the night i was wishing we had! I hadn't played any poker since i was a kid so had to be reminded of the rules, but didn't stop me none. I cleaned house. Outing my Dad and my bro two or three times. (kept giving them more chips so they could keep playing.) Felt good to be a girl kicking ass at poker. :biggrin: Last night was a little wilder. My friends took me out with a mission to get me completely trashed. I had made the mistake of telling them I had never been well and truly drunk.:crap: Their mission failed. Turns out I am not a cheap drunk. I had a total of 7 drinks last night and was just very tipsy. I'm happy with that. I didn't have to puke at the end of the night or have a hangover in the morning. Works for me. And God Bless my friends hubby for being our DD last night. Lots of dancing ensued and talking about sex. Why does that subject always come up when your tipsy? I feel truly sorry for the men in the vehicle, because i'm sure us girls were talking about things they would rather have not heard. :evil: Well that's my birthday story. The whole reason for it being that i had no blogs and this seemed an okay subject to blog about.

PSYCHICRIVER

Well, obviously, this will contain spoilers for the film. But I'll start with a non-spoiler review, and don't worry, I'll have big warnings before I get spoilery on your ass. Well...first thought...WOW. It's Amazing, brilliant, spectacular, shocking, terrifying, clever and hilarious all at once. All the acting is superb, they all gave their best performances and returned to their characters, at a tee. This really is their best. The film itself...just, it's done so well. It's hits every moment spot on. When you're supposed to be scared, I was scared, when you're supposed to laugh, we ALL laughed, when you're supposed to feel sad, we blubbed. It's just such a beautiful film...and so damn funny. If you thought the lines in the trailer were funny, well thats nothing, the funniest ones were saved for the film. Okay, well, I'm going to get spoilery now...so some of you will want to abandon this page!! ***SPOILERS!!!*** Well...I had tears in my eyes four times! I NEVER ever cry at films. EVER. But I did at Serenity. I cried as soon as it started, when I saw Serenity in the air, I was just so happy to see it again, and that this universe got to live on! And of course, I cried as soon as I saw the state of Shepheard Books town...I knew then. Unfortunately, I had been spoiled in the fact that, I knew two people died...and then I found out that one of them would be Wash. I saw some things to indicate the second would be Book, and some things that indicated the second would be Simon. I was actually shocked...cos when I first heard there would be deaths, I just thought there was one death, and the people I assumed to be safe for definite, were Mal, River, Inara, Jayne & Book. So I was shocked! And then later...I cried at the shock of Wash's death. It was horribly shocking!! He landed, and he said "I'm a leaf on the wind..." all proud, and we all laughed, and then within a sec, he died, and everybody gasped, the hairs on my neck stood up. And later, I cried when Simon was shot...and I thought he was then going to cry too...his speech was so sad, someting like "I'm sorry River..I'm sorry I have to go, I failed you." To which River replied something like "No Simon, you always took care of me. Now it's my turn." Then she jumped up, ran, launched herself through that whole, kicked a reaver, hit the button, grabbed Simon's medical bag, and threw it through the hole, just before the door slammed shut. I was so proud of River at that moment. I was crying but I was cheering inside too. I loved that moment. I mean, things were bad by then, really bad for our crew, and ever since the Reaver attack, River had been blubbing like a loony in the corner, and it didn't look like they were gonna make it through it. Simon was fading...and Kaylee needed medical attention, and the rest of em were gonna be slaughtered unless that door was closed...and River was the only one who could pull it off. And she had the braveness to do it! I don't know who I'm more proud of in the bdm... River, or Summer for doing such a fantastic job. I was disappointed by how little of the film Book was in. And that we didn't get to find out his secret. And that we didn't get to see the build-up to his death...we just saw him die. Sounds like it were quite a fight...would have been great to see our shepherd in action! Why was he in so little of the film? Was it because he was unavailable? Or Joss just couldn't use him? Jayne didn’t serve to much of the plot and he was still in most of it!! If there’s a sequel, and Joss kills off any of the women, I'll go mad! If there’s a sequel, I hope nobody dies in it. I hope that Joss killed off 2 people in this film, as he felt there were too many characters to be served in a film. I was impressed with special effects, such as Serenity crashing…and the reaver ships! I also thought the idea of getting the reavers to fight the alliance with brilliantly clever!! River’s fight scenes were…wow, amazing. Summer rocked ass. She’s so amazing and has done a fantastic job!

SOMEDEEPMYSTERY

Do not hit enter after typing your title. I'm not seeing a way to fix it, so... Anyway, we had this big storm here the other day, and out here in my part of town it was just serious rain and some wind. not a really big deal, a relief actually after all the heat. But the next day I see in the paper that it caused all kinds of havock, burned down buildings and all kinds of craziness. I'm thinking I shoule watch the news more often...
