Sometimes I am such a history geek. Last night I ended up recording the second half of the History Channel's "Crusades: The Crescent and the Cross", plus their special on the Knights Templar. And I'm really looking forward to watching my copy of "Kingdom of Heaven" with the historical commentary track. Maybe this weekend if I can squeeze it in, we'll see.

Mmm, also got my latest order from Arcana and I smell like a mixture of violets and blackberries today. It was wrong of me but I spent a lot of last night just sniffing stuff, and leaving the box sitting open in my living room as the entire thing smelling gorgeous. *happy sigh*

I'm glad I get a week off from cat sitting next week, I'm too easily guilted into hanging around much longer than I should by lonely kitties. That, of course, eats into my time to work on crafts and other projects. Though I was pretty efficient last night and even made some superb progress on my last big crafting project. Go me! And with just a few more odds and ends my Xmas shopping will all but be done, yay!

Speaking of which, if anybody is wondering what I'd like this year, well I'd love the gift of music. Make me mix cd's of whatever you choose and I'll be profoundly grateful. One can never have too much music...unless one is jakejr, in which case one would come perilously close ;)

I think both JakeJr. *and* Cyrano would disagree with you on that score. ;)

Ah but JakeJr gets teased about it because I've had to lug her extremely heavy collection twice so far ;)

Oh, I know. I've helped at least the one time, and I'm the one who won her 'guess how many CDs I have' contest with a guess that I had *thought* was going to be inordinately high, but that actually wound up being *under* (I think). Either way, she was a little disgruntled that I won with my super-high guess. :)

Although I wonder what G&C's collection looks like now; I think it rivalled JakeJr's *current* collection when they moved into their house...nine years ago. :)

There is still so much more music I need to have. (:

(And E? Let me know what you've already got so I don't duplicate too badly...)

Day after thanksgiving, so are people going to start coming around 1pm-ish? Earlier is fine. Also do we want to pick a movie or something like that to watch?

Also, while I will make a lasanga I am going to be restrained in other cooking so people might want to bring something to share...?

Ah I was just going to email you about that, our arrival time will depend on whether or not we end up wanting to go see GoF at the IMAX that day, if it's playing like 11-ish or noon-ish, then come to your place afterwards. Regardless I was planning to bring something to share, perhaps some snacks to tide us over until dinner. And movies are very easy to supply as well :)

Let me know what you pick up so I can bring something other. Or, if you'd like, I can do the shopping on Wednesday, thus insuring no repeats.

[elo-sf.livejournal.com]

Perfect. You may want to check with Phil if GoF is at IMAX since he probably would enjoy going.

I need to be cooking.

Hope to see people 1ish or later if the movie is going.

Also bring Gamecube/etc fun also >:)

Oh, that stuff is teh crack. I'm still going through my supply (next up, Swashbuckler). The gift that keeps on giving...
