...Yeah. Went to the mall today. (Coralridge mall, for those who live 'round these parts. It's the biggun. Er, relatively speaking.) Tomas wanted to see Sky High and I didn't have any particular objections to watching it. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. The character Warren Peace was a total hottie ♥ And yes, I totally fell in love with his name. How could I not? It's a terrible pun X3 I spent half the movie drooling over him, and another third pointing out what would happen in the plot. The remaining sixth went mostly to counting cliches, and I cannot tell you how glad I am that the story rivalry was not over the heroine. My God, that made Warren for me. Cliches won in the end, but it was totally worth it for the not-enemies-over-the-girl thing. Hell, just go for Warren. (Note to self: Find out who played him.)
( Cut for babble on Story Time and Fairy Tales )
That's about it for now. Oh, except that Mom goes in to be re-boob-ified on Tuesdaythe same day I start school; I'm having deja-vu from seventh grade now. I get to take care of the lizard while she's incapacitated.
Still don't know what books I need >_<...
Edit: Okay, riddle me this, Batman. In the Disney version of Sleeping Beauty, there were three 'good' fairies. In the Perrault version, there were seven. Why is it, then, that not one of them thought to bless the child with 'a good brain' then, huh? ((Rhetorical question, people. I know the answer, I'm just not happy with it.))
Edit the second: Dude, no one told me these stories were so damn cool :D Hell, the Sleeping Beauty story we're all familiar with is only half of it! In the Perrault version, it even explores social issues (like changes in fasion ♥) and then the princess' mother-in-law turns out to be an actual ogre! Not to mention that his version of Little Red Riding hood ends right after the wolf eats the chick, and is much more suggestive, moral especially. Pro'ly makes more sense than the other one, too, now that I think of it. Much love for early versions ♥
