So, an actual update. I'll get the 'blah blah blah' out of the way first.

Watched Underworld last night. Wow, was that an...experience. I will say that I found the movie very entertaining, for what that's worth. I can't say it was a good movie, because it sucked more monkey ass than a drunken slut monkey, but it was entertaining. Watching movies with Jen generally is.

I just kept watching it going 'those are supposed be vampires and werewolves? You know, just once I'd like to see a movie vampire heroine who's running around in jeans, a t-shirt and sneakers. Why does it seem to be a requisite that all movie vampires look like something Anne Rice designed while on crack? Why all the black leather and velvet? How is that inconspicuous? Like no one's going to know you're a vampire?

I won't touch the werewolves. Oh, excuse me, 'lycans'. All I could think of when they said they had a 'lichen infestation' was 'you better get that parasitic moss looked at'.

The main male character was entertaining, however, because he looked like Jason Wade. A lot. And Jen has talked me into giving White Wolf: Werewolf a try at some point.

And we watched 9th Gate before that, which is one of my favorite movies. And Death Eater Johnny (The Death Eater Wore Socks) makes it even better.

Damn, it's hard to type with a kitten draped over your arms.

Okay, so on to the other stuff. I've had such little inclination to write recently. I was planning on writing up a little thing on pairings I find plausible in canon, but I don't have the oomph. I also have no desire to write any fan fiction. I have the entire arc for 'Eternity' planned out, but I can't for the life of me sit down and write it. It's like the move has temporarily (I assume) sucked it all out of me. All the ambition and drive I have is going towards other things. Which are, in the scheme of things, much more important. Finding a job, finding an apartment, finding doctors, that sort of thing. Responsible things, adult things, necessary things.

I know I've been seeming out of touch and distant lately, and I apologize. It's just a new stage in my life, and that's something wonderful, depressing and frightening all at the same time. So bear with me folks, I have not abandoned anything or anyone!
