2. I wish there was a place to request podfics. There are a few Big Bang stories I desperately want to read, but time is against me as per usual. I wonder if there is a "podfic by request" comm. "Podfics R Us" maybe. Or "Podfics On Demand". I mean, I know there wouldn't be, but one can dream and/or hope. :)
Speaking of podfics I've just finished listening to Queensguard and it was made of complete win! I didn't want it to end.
3. I was 13 when Star Wars arrived on the big screens. It's one of those films that had a big impact on my future love of cinema and movies. Hubby and I decided that as our daughter is now 13 it would be interesting to see what she thought of it. She's not that interested in Sci-fi, but we said it's one of those must see films. So we watched it as a family (which is always nice). Of course she sat there saying... "oh this from Futurama" or, "that's from The Simpsons". And she didn't let up when I told her I had a crush on Luke Skywalker. She's all "ewwwww". :) I haven't seen it for ages. I still love it and I'm amazed how well it holds up 30 years later.
4. Saw a vid recently and it blew me away. With over 8 million views I'm pretty sure you may have seen it, but just in case you haven't: Embrace Life I love the concept and the execution. I mean it's professionally made but from what I can tell was made specifically for YT. It's worth a look.
5. Vid. Arggh! I need to put my wrestling gear on when I work on this one. It's 4 mins, which for me is fairly long, but I need every second to be able to flesh this one out. I just hope I can win a round soon. *gets it in a headlock*
6. My good friend
hedonist_bot is an up and coming playwright. I've directed a couple of his one act plays and he's just scored an opening at The Blue Room (professional alternative theatre venue in Perth) - which in itself is awesome, but he's been receiving glowing reviews since it's opened. I'm seeing it next week. I read an early draft so I'll be interested to see how it's developed. I just love success stories. He's been writing for a number of years and he's finally caught a break. Let's hope it's all up hill from here for him.
That's it. That's enough randoness for one night. <33
