Depends I guess. My favourite books ever are the Darren Shan series for example, and the movie was just embarrassing and godawful... yuck.

My friend Kelly was obsessed with the Darren Shan series. Whenever a new one came out she'd always drag me to Waterstones before class to buy it and spend the day shunning her work to read it lol.

A group of angry fans threw eggs at Lady Gaga in response to her recent appearance on stage in Sydney, Australia rolling around in a wheelchair. Though the throwers missed Gaga herself, a few eggs hit members of her entourage. It is unclear why audience members had the eggs in the first place, however.

You are so sexy and you have great hair. Sometimes I wish I could be you for a day, although you might have herpes when I return your body back to you. TMI ha ha

Dani, you look incredible. My love for HBC as Bellatrix is boundless, and you nailed the look.
Bee, I'm so sorry for your loss.

I'm on the ride out to to my uncle's memorial service. This is going to be bizarre--the first time my grandparents will be in the same room since said Uncle graduated college in 1986.

On a Fleetwood-related note, I was really touched to learn that he was a fan as well. My mother was going through his things and found a bunch of photos of him a shirt from the Dance, apparently a favorite of his. One of his friends also mentioned that "Dream a Little Dream of Me" was his favorite song (Mamas and the Papas are my other absolute favorites). My uncle has been a loser drug addict and small time dealer my entire life, but I like feeling some small connection to him. Granted, these are not exactly obscure bands, but it's nice to share them--the only things I'd want to share. What an incredible thing that musicians can give us that.

This is why we love each other. I am OBSESSED with Helena, and I'm even more obsessed with her as Bellatrix. She is the highlight of the Harry Potter films for me each and every time (although I have to admit that Alan Rickman blew my mind in this last film).

I remember you telling me about this -- I'm glad that you found some connection to him, although you felt so disconnected during his lifetime. It'll be interesting to see what happens with your grandparents.... that's such an interesting concept, divorcees seeing each other for the first time in years. My dad is planning on never talking to my mother again, which puts my sister and I into awkward positions.... marriages, etc.

+1! That dress looks like it was just made for your body, and it perfectly frames your crescent moon pendant too. Plus, the fabric is really fun!

Found out my sister in law is a Lesbian today. I feel closer to her now. She's one of the few people did not know I was Bi. It just never came up. When I told her she squealed with joy lol

The first one looks fine but the dress looks good on you too.
