And now... The Larch.

And now...

The Larch.


I feel about as exciting as a block of wood today. I suppose that's okay so long as I'm not too knotty. HA!

See what I'm talking about? Yeah. I must have had some bran flakes this morning or something, because I feel about as interesting as Sinclair. But, I suppose that's likely to happen if you get up super early to renew your car tag and then get to work super early too. And then you sit there thinking, "Wow, I'm really tired. Why am I awake?" And then you make a post about it so you can share you boringness and exhaustion with the whole world—or at least the two or three people who actually read your blog.

But, if all goes well, I should be going to see Howl's Moving Castle tonight again, and this time I should be able to understand what people are saying, though I don't think I could enjoy it any more than I did the first time in Japan. Still, I think the excellence of the first watching had something to do with the setting...and the mochi ice cream bar I smuggled into the theater. I can't wait until the scene with the bath towel and the slime. It sounds disgusting, but it's definitely my favorite scene in the movie. I would say more, but I don't want to spoil it too much for the tender ears of theCallowQueen.

Anyway, here's to this day being better than the last! If it isn't, I just might cry. wah!


And now...

The Larch.


PS. If you're wondering where the hell the larch thing came from, it's from Monty Python's flying circus, so it, of course, makes no sense. Just imagine it in a Brittish accent. You can't go wrong.

Howl's Moving Castle,
Howl's Moving Castle,
We get to see Howl's Moving Castle.

(Yes, this is all in sing-song voice.)

Ha, ha...Sinclair and his bran flakes. It's been a long time since I have thought of that. You know Gary Walker's group still does "Who Is that Man?" for every Holy Thursday Mass. It's all part of your legacy.

Seriously? That's awesome. I love that song. I need to bring it back at my church for sure. It kind of went away with Frank.

Yeah, and Sinclair's bran flakes have become a timeless tradition. Every new inductee into the bab5 realm must be introduced to them. It's the most official unofficial B5 trivia ever.

^^ Hoooooowl's Castle. I must share with you a few icons somebody on livejournal made. I saw these before I saw the movie; I appreciate them MORE now that I've seen it. ;->

l42: I'll definitely need to see those icons. I think I remember you mentioning them before. I'm really curious now.

Hopefully you won't have to remind me. ^^
