For me, up at 0811 hrs on a Sunday is early. Yes, my life is so hard. NOT! 😛

We’re going shopping today. We must do our Christmas shopping!!!

We had dinner last night at Claude and Dominique’s Bistro, a French restaurant in Pleasanton. Always a pleasant experience, except my mother-in-law fell ill right before dinner came out. Alas!

I can’t explain this sudden fascination for Orlando Bloom. I need help!!!

After dinner, we were on Stanley Blvd and had to pass through a sobriety checkpoint. Ye gods! As we slowly drove by, I tried to see if I knew any of the officers standing in the cool Saturday night. Nope!

I’ve started a story. Actually, it’s just a scene that I’m trying to flesh out for part of a story. My Orlando Bloom fascination inspired the scene. Something about his turn as Will Turner. Hmmm…

I need something to cheer me up.

Yeah, that could do it. LOL!

Jack Davenport was a pleasant surprise in POTC

What, no Orlando screencap today? Maybe later. 😉

“Apparently, the ever-growing rivalry between the Yankees and Red Sox was too much for closer Keith Foulke to resist.”

Why do I have this utter sinking feeling? 🙁 I really wanted Foulke to stay with the A’s. He’s awesome! And really so understated. Nothing too flashy about him and that’s cool.

Do I wish him well? I wish him well.

I just love JD’s look in this one. Wicked!

It’s COLD outside. Weather.com says 41°. Ye gods! Okay, that is cold to me. Especially when it’s windy!

Well, I’m taking next Thursday off. Woohoo! We’re going to do that First Pitch thing in the evening, but before that we’re going to see THE RETURN OF THE KING. YEAH BABY!!! Last night we were watching tv and I saw a preview for the movie. I actually paid attention and saw Karl Urban flash by. Groovay! It looked like a dramatic battle scene. I’m really looking forward to seeing the movie. We’ve already got our tickets for the 1100 hrs showing. Groovay…

After doing all those POTC screencaps the other night, a small scene began in my head. I need to write it down and perhaps use it for one of my stories. It begins before a kiss. 😉

Less than two weeks before Christmas! And how much shopping have we done? ZERO. We suck! 😛

This one is my Pocket PC theme…

I love that I can do DVD screencaps. Exciting!

I’ve never had a “white” Christmas, but I do like the cold weather for the holidays. It’s great for wearing sweaters and big coats! 😀

2. What is your ideal holiday celebration? How, where, with whom would you celebrate to make things perfect?
My ideal holiday would be family and friends with lots of food and laughter…

3. Do you do have any holiday traditions?
Spending time with family.

4. Do you do anything to help the needy?
Alas, no.

5. What one gift would you like for yourself?
Time to savor everything…

song in my head: “Silk” by Rachel Stevens

Orlando Bloom as Will Turner in POTC

I did some screencaps of POTC. I’m probably not going to put them up anywhere though. Just a few here now and again. I love that I can do screencaps on my computer! 😀

The rain waited until I got home to fall. Outside it’s cold and wet.

Time for bed! More screencaps in the morning? Hmmm, there’s a thought…
