And you like Tori Amos and Rory/Logan!
Definitely adding ♥

Tori Amos is brilliant too. And yay for Rory/Logan! Have you seen season 7 of Gilmore Girls?
no subject
Yes! My cousin bought the DVDs off Amazon. Have you seen it? I was going to start abusing it, but I don't want to spoil anything for you...
no subject
Yep I've just seen it! Feel free to abuse away. It pissed me off so much.

Its Jess aka Sevenpuddings. I'm wondering if you'd like to add my new journal?

no subject
Are you kidding? ADDING YOU RIGHT NOW ♥♥
Sorry I've been so non-existent. I just have no time. Work, work, friends, eat, work, sleep, work, work, work, sleep, work, work, work, work, work. I want my life back :( I'll have to catch up properly when I get back (I'm seeing Frost/Nixon with Dad in 20 minutes - seriously, no time).
no subject
(Also, I expect a review of Frost/Nixon. I totally wanna see it!)
no subject
So, please? :)
no subject
Anyway, absolutely I'll add you! Madonna's awesome :P My parents have her first album on vinyl, which I'm planning to steal someday.
Also, YAY for Interpol!
no subject
(I only stole Madonna CDs from my dad, haha)
no subject
Keen for an add?
I'm Claire by the way :P
no subject
Anyway, thought I'd say hi, and, you know, friends? I always love finding people to fangirl with.
no subject
But at least something good came out of it! Absolutely friends! More people should love Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, it's so amazing! I love all the references to Raymond Chandler.
no subject
I do love it so, though I have to make myself look silly pretty much straight away, because I don't know who Raymond Chandler is. :S *hides*
no subject
Yeah, I want to hug Harry Potter right now. I've missed it so much! I'm even reading fanfic again. I miss the old days.
Oh don't worry bb - I probably only really know him because I had to study him. Raymond Chandler pretty much invented the hard boiled detective genre. The whole movie is like an homage to his work - all the chapter titles are titles of his novels ('The Simple Art of Murder', 'Farewell, My Lovely', etc), and the Johnny Gossamer thing is like a send-up of his character Philip Marlowe.
All it does is make an already awesome movie even more awesome. You should read some of his stuff though! I remember him being pretty funny :D Although the plots are always really convoluted (which they were also kind of poking fun at in the movie)
no subject
Ooh, me too! There's some really great fanfic out there, too. And the really scary ones! (Why on earth would someone ship Fred/George? It boggles my brain.) I am craving new Potter. Even that encyclopaedia that JK was talking about. That would be all kinds of fabulous.
Ah, I assumed it was a send-up of someone's books, I just never knew who. Now I can pretend I always knew that! ;)
