My 8-year-old cousin just found out she got a part in our Youtheater production of "Sleeping Beauty." :D She's going to be a woodland creature. :p Erin

I'M GOING TO SEE IT IN AN HOUR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :eek: :D :eek: :p Erin

I am resolving to put my writing above my school work this year. ;) (Shouldn't be too hard, since I have no school work... :p ) Erin

Name: Erin McCarty Do you like your name? Yes Age: 22 Are you happy being this age? I think I'd like to be permanently 11, or thereabouts... Sex: female If you could change genders...would you and why? probably not - i'm too used to how I am - but I tend to identify a lot more...

Last night we watched the extended Fellowship of the Ring and today we watched the extended The Two Towers (that one for the first time - the extra scenes were great! :) ) in preparation of finally watching Return of the King, tomorrow if all goes well. I'm keeping my fingers crossed! I may...

The original would have to be my favorite, but I love TNG as well. I never really got into DS9 or Voyager, and I've never seen Enterprise. Don't get the right channel. I''ve always been a big Star Trek fan but I really haven't watched it much in a long time. My brother used to be one of those...

*sigh* Not working on anything... But I am determined to have a very productive year this year! I will come up with something to write, doggone it! (I hope!) :p Erin

Wow, it's New Year's in Australia already... we've still got quite a way to go here! It's only 11 a.m.! Erin

No way! Lewis Carroll created the word "chortle"? That's so cool! :) Erin

I don't want to sound like I hated my department, because I think all of the professors I had are really nice people and great teachers. But there definitely was an overriding sense of literary elitism that I caught. And it catches my eye when I'm reading reviews and that sort of thing, too...

Yeah, I'm a nice guy gal too, or would be if I ever dated. I get crushes on nice guys, not bad boys. I can't imagine wanting to date a jerk. :eek: Erin

Well, I congratulated you over at the Authors' Corner, but this news deserves two congratulations!! :D Happy editing! ;) Erin

:eek: :eek: WOW! I greatly admire your stamina! You got six times further than I've ever gotten! What is your novel about? I hope you're able to get it published sometime in the future! :) Erin

Literary elitism. I'm so sick of hearing about which authors are producers of "literature" and which are not. Pretty much everyone I admire falls into the *not* category. I guess Mark Twain is considered great literature, and I've always loved him, but I don't give a flying fig about James...

Have any of you heard of a fantasy novel called "Eragon"? I've seen it on the shelves at our bookstore in a prominent place but didn't know anything about it. Turns out it was written by an 18-year-old - started when he was 15!! :eek: Man, I wish that was me! I really want to write a novel this...

Big Fish is another movie I'd like to see. It looks a touch Secondhand Lions-ish, and I loved that movie. And I tend to like Tim Burton's movies, even though I usually find them rather odd. There are soooo many movies have have come out this fall or are soon coming out that I want to see! Erin

I wouldn't mind seeing Cold Mountain either, as long as I have a popcorn bag to put in front of my face during the battle scenes. :p Erin

LOL, Manda! We're cut out of the same mold! I have the LOTR chess set but haven't gotten the other games yet. I would like to, but I probably won't buy anything for a while because my birthday is fast approaching! ;) I'd definitely like to get the trivia games and Monopoly at some point. That's...

I am DYING to see Return of the King but haven't yet. It got mixed reviews from my relatives who have seen it, but mostly positive. I think we might finally get to see it on New Years' Eve. Let's hope! :halo: When we do, I'm sure I will have a LOT to say about it!! Erin

Yeah, it's a bummer it being over so quickly. Though it's not entirely over for me, since I'm spending the next few days visiting relatives and celebrating Christmas with them. I probably won't be on again until Tuesday night, so I'll see you all then! Byron, those sound like really cool...
