I see a white light and I want to paint it black...

Plan B: As tersa pointed out, if I break the light bulb they'll just come and replace it. Plus I checked it out and it has some sort of safety glass in front of the bulb. I'm pondering sneaking out in the middle of the night and painting the safety glass black! Bet that'd take them longer to replace it, too. Heh heh heh.

Yay movies ordered! Ice Age (which I saw and liked a lot) and Spirit (which I really, really wanted to see but missed). Free shipping on them from Amazon, too. Woo woo.

Almost done with the 750 page The Shelters of Stone, then I'm going to start in on the Harry Potter books, I think. I hope I like them as much as everyone else seems to.

Waiting very impatiently for the Gamecube to arrive. UPS's tracking says it's now in the right state, at least, so maybe it'll come tomorrow. Wonder if the UPS guy will leave it at the door or if I'll have to go pick it up the next day at the UPS place (since I'd never be home when they try to deliver it).

Wow, how is Shelter of Stone? You just made me remember I had been meaning to read it!
The Harry Potter books read real fast ^_^.

A lot of her fans didn't like Stone, but I'm enjoying it a lot. Their main complaint is true: There's *zero* plot movement (I'm 600 pages into it and all they did is arrive home -- and they arrived home at the start of the book), but somehow it's still enjoyable.

Well, I recall parts of her other books being like that... just how she seems to write.

Yeah, exactly. Slow and meandering, but interesting.

Why don't you just complain?

You're really good at that.

I hate complaining! ...unless it's about you. ;)
