A bit of a chuckle.

I was on a website looking for Snapefic (astonishing, yes, I know). It's one of those freebie websites where there are advertising banners across the top. Normally I never bother looking at them, but today one caught my eye.

Professor Snape Sale
New & used Professor Snape.
Check out the deals now!

I laughed and laughed. (It was for eBay.)

I wonder if they have financing. It's too sad that the new Snapes depreciate so swiftly as soon as you get them out of the lot. I may have to go for a used one instead. A 2001 model, perhaps. A post-defeat of Voldemort one, though, definitely. The earlier ones tend to disappear a lot, claiming they have "important missions", and I don't want to have to chain him to the bed. Too often.

Excellent! I had no idea the movies were available on dvd. I just put them in my queue on Netflix. I'm going through the entire 7 Seasons of Buffy right now (as if I haven't watched them 1000 times already) but there's something satisfying just watching them in order at my leisure.

I can't believe FF1 would have the characters attack empty air. What a waste of a turn. I'm so glad that's not the case, although later in the game it can get a bit tricky when you want to use a spell on a certain villain, then he's killed and the spell hits something else and ends up adding HP to their count. That really irritates me so I have my battle mode on "wait" later in the game when things get serious.

The baby is down for his nap now and I'm trying to catch up on LJ. He's been playing Playhouse Disney on here most of the morning while I've done chores, then we did his lessons (I homeschool him - it's just pre-school curriculum, but he's doing great) and then he announced that he was tired. He's such a good kid like that. I never have to fight him to get him into bed. He's always more than ready to tell me when he's tired. Thank God.

I watched the first season of Buffy, and really enjoyed it, but then kind of lost track of it. I did watch most of the last season of Angel, and I loved Spike dearly.

Yes, the elemental magic types that "heal" and "harm" different kinds of beasties can cause problems...

Have you gone to the little island with the vortex yet? Have you done the thing where the vortex creature swallows you all and takes you to a secret place? Man, I loved that.

I have a friend whose kid fights and screams against going to sleep...such a struggle every night! That's wonderful that yours is so agreeable.

I love Spike dearly as well. The Buffy fandom is actually how I ended up on LJ. I didn't know a soul on LJ but used to read nautibitz fan fiction on her website (she's the Queen of Spike/Buffy fic in my opinion) and there was a link to her LJ there. I used to read her LJ and thought it would be neat to have one just to keep track of Alex's development. Then I started meeting all of the HP crowd and here I am, almost 2 years later.

Alex must have inherited the sleep thing from me and the husband. We are huge nappers and Alex is a 'sleepy' kid also. He sleeps around 10 hours at night and will take a 1 1/2 - 3 hour nap every day (thank God). I nap with him most days, but some days, like today, I love the alone time.

and here I am, almost 2 years later.

And I say to that...thank goodness! :)
