My Marik plushie ^^ Isn't he cute?! **snuggles him.**

Yep, I finally got those pictures developed. It's a miracle! LOL.

My Christmas fic is moving right along. I just did chapter 11. I'm hoping to have it all done by Christmas Eve. Last year I'd only gotten to about chapter 4 or 5 by the time Christmas arrived. That fic didn't get wrapped up till January XD

Christmas Eve is one of my most favorite days. I recently dubbed it the Day of Secrets. Sometimes we go around delivering Christmas cards then. Usually people drop by for a few minutes to visit and we exchange presents. We don't open anything till Christmas Day, though. I like watching my All Dogs Christmas Carol movie and trying to determine what's in the packages >3 And Christmas caroling is always a plus.

I saw two very good Cowboy Bebop episodes, Session #24: Hard Luck Woman and Session #8: Waltz for Venus. The first one was my favorite, but they were both very, VERY good. Faye and Ed were both learning things about their pasts and remembering things. Ed's father had a bounty on him and he fought Spike and Jet with eggs XD And dang, is he scatter-brained! "Thank you for taking care of my son. Or was it my daughter?" Poor Ed. Buuut it did seem that he really cared about her, and she wanted to go back and stay with him, so she left the ship and Ein followed her. MUST .... SEE ...... NEXT EPISODE!!!

Session #8 had sibling cuteness X3 Spike was trying to help this guy learn some martial arts stuff, and then finds out the guy has a bounty on him 'cause he's mixed up with a bad gang and has a very rare plant that cures Venus Sickness. He has the plant because he wanted to sell it and use the money to help his younger sister be able to see again. (That reminded me somewhat of Joey and Serenity.) It was really bittersweet at the end, but lovely as well ^^

I decided Ed is my favorite character. She's so different. And fun ^^ But I see something deep there, too. I think there's a lot more to her than the goofy, hyper-active persona we usually see.

I tried to watch The Secret of NIMH, but the DVD wanted to be annoying XD It kept freezing at one important part that I needed to see >< So I havta take that back to the library and get a different copy. What I did see was very very good and much better than the other mouse movie I saw recently, An American Tail. The Secret of NIMH is a dark movie (dark for something marketed as a kids' film), and I love it!! Don Bluth honestly is a genius! He's the same one who created All Dogs Go to Heaven.

He made Anastasia too. I like that movie for the most part, but I didn't like the way the dead bad guy kept falling apart while he was trying to make his plotting and stuff XD That had nothing to do with the movie's plot and it was irritating and unsettling. I guess it's possible that Don Bluth himself didn't have anything to do with that part, because it really doesn't seem like his style. From what I can remember, Mr. Bluth makes it clear that some subjects are dark and serious and not to be taken lightly. And someone falling apart (even a "dead" someone) for the sake of humor seems like one of those subjects.

I got a very immature and rude review from an obviously immature person who basically said that anyone who doesn't watch or like Inu-Yasha isn't really an animé fan and called me a loser. But if he/she can't accept that some people don't even have a way to watch that show and that some people enjoy and love other animés, then I'd have to say that that person is the one who really isn't an animé fan. At any rate, they certainly aren't respectful of anyone else. I won't put up with that crap XD I deleted that review.
