Don’t forget that I’m chatting tonight at Romance Divas! They have some excellent forums there and they’re a great place to hang out. 6 pacific/9 eastern!

And I have a myspace account. I’ve had it since November but haven’t done much with it. Can’t say I’m overly excited about the lack of interaction between users but I’ll give it a try keeping it up. I’m starting to customize it a little bit thanks to Michelle Pillow’s helpful tips. I’m not done over there but it does look better than it did two days ago. Anyway, the URL is http://www.myspace.com/lauren_dane

I watched Doom last night. Yeah, it’s academy awards season and I want to see all the nominees for best picture. BWAH! I crack myself up. Okay, so I wanted to look at Karl Urban for an hour and a half. Only the movie is nearly 2 hours long. It was about twenty minutes longer than I thought was necessary and I thought the personality change in the end with Sarge was out of nowhere. But the Rock shirtless? Yeah, I’ll muddle through. And Karl Urban, sigh. I thought the sister was pretty stupid for a xenobiologist but intelligence and common sense are not the same thing I suppose.

A slightly boring autobiographical note about Doom and Lauren – in my first year of law school, I’d come home and play Doom every day to get over the trauma. More from the people than the actual education, which was bad enough. But killing cacodemons who reminded me a lot of the twits I had to interact with every day got me through. So each time I heard a door open in the movie last night, it made me smile a bit. Yeah, sort of creeps you out now huh? Lauren’s not as nice as she seems is she? LOL!

Post about BDSM up at the Writerbabes blog with a bit of an excerpt from Second Chances.

Okay, I think that’s it for now…

    I bought Doom the day it came out for the mere fact that I could stare at Karl for 2 hours. For some reason the first time I saw the LOTR movies I didn’t really notice him. Then when Return of the King came out on dvd and I watched it 7-8 times in a week (I was unemployed) I was just blown away by him.

    Another good shirtless Rock movie is Walking Tall. I saw that in the theater and when he started doing sit-ups with the shirt off I muttered “Thank you”. I thought my roommate was going to fall out of her chair from trying to hold in laughing at me.

    Karl is really beautiful in the LOTR movies. I missed the accent in Doom, but I wasn’t really watching for the dialog, LOL
