Happy Passover fellow deli lovers. :)
Watched Donnie Darko this evening, which was a very intriguing film, and discovered yet another boy for me to drool over. No, of course I don't just watch things for the drool factor, it just helps. ;-) Jake Gyllenhal is a fantastic actor, it's astounding how he manages to be both innocent and menacing at the same time. The sly, sadistic smirk (alliteration!) as he looks up into the camera is absolutely chilling. And dead sexy. *giggles*
Was very pleased to read that a new Science Fiction museum/amusement park is to open next year, but was annoyed to have it described as a 'little boy's fantasy'. Grr! When are people going to stop segregating scifi into a 'boys only' category? I've been a huge scifi geek since I was about 5 years old, when I read my first Ray Bradbury book Dinosaur Tales. I grew up watching Star Trek and playing Dungeons and Dragons and generally doing all the things boys were supposed to want to do -- I never played with dolls (I decapitated the one and only Barbie I ever received as a present, I think my family took that as a hint to buy me more books, which I appreciated infinitely more) or happy families or did girly things -- I wanted to be a wizard (long before Harry Potter made it cool) and tame dragons and explore the galaxy, and maybe if I had time discover the Grand Unified Wave Theory in quantum mechanics. And I know I'm not alone. There are thousands of girls out there who feel the same way, and yet we are still ignored. Sigh. *bashes the world with a Bat'leth before escaping in her TARDIS*
I made a new friend today,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
amaterasu, who is exceedingly cool and worships me for my HARDCORE geekiness. Whooot! :D
Oooh, and just as I typed this, I made another friend --banazir, who graciously accepted my offer to stop lurking on my journal and actually add me as a friend. Good boy. *pats him on the head* ;-)
Look whatavariel_wings wrote for me -- a delightfully silly Pippin/Richard Mayhew drabble thingy! Isn't it adorable? *beams with happy pride* :D
