+ Just back from seeing The Cave with [Bad username or site: johnnybvo / @ livejournal.com]. I can usually think of at least one nice thing to say about a movie but that flick had no redeemable qualities whatsoever. I only went for the Cole, and my boy was largely ACCENTLESS. Wtf is the point of putting Cole Hauser in your movie and toning down his accent, people? [Bad username or site: johnnybvo / @ livejournal.com] and I laughed a lot, and not in that this movie is so bad it's fun way. In the dear god, why did we spend money on this? way. So yeah, if you're looking for your annual Cole Hauser hit, pull Pitch Black off the shelf. You get the same basic scary, flying killing things after a small group in the dark plotline, sans all the...you know, shitty movie.

+ Killing time before the game, my bro and I watched Lost and Invasion. Eddie Cibrian and I are not getting on this weekend. I thought Invasion was mindnumbling boring. And I think Lost and I might be over, because seriously, wtf. (I'm strangely comfortable with that though. I really loved the first 80% of the first season. It was fun while it had me.) Hell, the hour-long drama and I might be done until Deadwood comes back next year. Nothing's grabbing me right now. I feel oddly fandomless. I mean, there's BSG and to a lesser extent SG-1, but they're not fandoms for me like I'm used to doing fandom.

+ Watching baseball this weekend from home has been weird -- my brother and my dad, still virulently anti-Mussina and anti-any NYY success, are both actively rooting for a Sox sweep this weekend. So yet more wtf. During yesterday's game, they showed footage from earlier in the day of B-Rob in civvies catching up with Ortizzle behind the batting cage. No great big bear hug this time, sadly for me, though I'm sure Brian and his sling appreciated that. It amuses me to think that Ortizzle has sort of adopted B-Rob since he comes attached to Miggy ^_~

+ So, so, so glad I decided to come home this weekend. Williamsburg gets so claustrophobic. I always find it funny when I come home and my mother makes happy note of how I've lost weight and reminds me that this is the age to keep it off, meanwhile my dad always feels the need to remark that I look sickly and need to eat.

+ Read in the paper this morning that Daniel Craig and Nicole Kidman begin filming in Baltimore for 45 days starting Monday (A project formerly titled Invasion, now going by The Visiting). Yay team us! This makes me feel all tingly. I don't know why, since usually Baltimore is standing in for somewhere else. But the piece said this time we get to stay Baltimore, so that's cool. I'm of half a mind to try and stalk Mr. Craig on Monday; I'd love to have him autograph my copy of Enduring Love. And I'd like to see just what shade of blue his eyes are IRL. I won't with the stalking though, because stalking is bad, kids. And I don't have the patience for it.

+ I caught up with my flist while I had access to a comp and did another friends cut, even though it's only been 20 days since my last cut. Still trying to find that optimum balance given how hellish this semester has been.

+ (Justice League is on right now. Glad they moved it back to 10pm. Glad they're back to showing 2 eps back to back. Still annoyed that they're sticking with the Unlimited business.)

hi!... oh well, I was wondering if you could help me. I've been wondering how to add a header to my journal, since I've got more or less the same basic layout as yours. I've been hitting my head cause I don't find how to do it.
Could you give me hand. It's just a header *bangs her head with the key board* I'm sorry to be such a pain... could you help meeeeee?????

Hey, no worries! My coding is now a mix of stuff because I mixed in coding for the control panel and coding for a quote box and all that, but to go back to the basics:

I first learned how, using these links to tutorials (http://www.livejournal.com/users/wickedgoddess_/50262.html) that [Bad username or site: wickedgoddess_ / @ livejournal.com] put up.

1. Read the tutorial she links to called "getting started". That explains to you how to add a new theme layer.

2. Go to the customize (http://www.livejournal.com/customize/) screen. Where it says Themes, use the pulldown menu. The theme layer you just created, "my theme" (or whatever you called it,) should be at the bottom. Select it.

3. If you're not bothered about adding new components, skip down to the bottom; and read the tutorial she links to called "graphic @ the top". Note, the guy's first response has an error in it.
He corrects it in this comment (http://www.livejournal.com/community/component_help/75405.html?thread=380301#t380301).

4. I hope that helps! I'm afraid I don't have access to my laptop, which had a file with basic header coding in it. If you have trouble with the links above, I can email you next weekend. I should have my laptop by then.

I just looked at Invasion. It's another remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers. Hmmm.

And directed by Oliver Hirschbiegel (http://www.players.de/49/bild1k.jpg). Now working with Nicole Kidman. I'm impressed.
That would be [Hearshbeagle], in case you really want to crash the set. :)

**laughs** Thanks for the tip!

Yes, but this time it's set in Baltimore. It will be the BEST REMAKE EVER :-P

And I think Lost and I might be over, because seriously, wtf.

I had pretty much that same reaction when I saw the episode. I'm not too saddened about it though. The one show I am actually anxiously waiting for airs in the same timeslot as Lost so.. And I guess leaving time for school work is always good so losing a show might work out for the best. ;)

I'm so glad to hear that. I got the feeling from scanning my flist on Wednesday night that most people were excited about the new developments :-/ Meh. Totally did nothing for me.

The one show I am actually anxiously waiting for airs in the same timeslot as Lost so..

I was thinking about that. I was like, well, having abandoned Lost, perhaps I'll finally take a chance on that Veronica Mars show.

And I guess leaving time for school work is always good so losing a show might work out for the best. ;)

**laughs** Too true!

The new turns of events did little for me too. All I could do was roll my eyes when they revealed that there was a bunker of some sorts on the island. =/ Please, I'm not even going to guess what that's all about.

Most shows I watched last year are a bit on the blah side this year, so I have high hopes for VM. =) It's the only one I'm keeping in my weekly schedule, the rest are in the if I have time" category. *lol*

**laughs** Yeah. The entire teaser I was just like, oh please, please, please don't let this have anything to do with what's under the hatch, please let this be some kind of weird flashback....
