Oh dear, I am SUCH A GEEK.



...and as unashamed of as it could possibly get. Ever. I knew it was coming out - it got a glowing review on the newspaper, and as I wandered in the bookshop today (looking around for gifts for mom, it's Mother's Day here next Monday SUNDAY, I meant Sunday), I checked it out, in case they had the English original--

--but they only had the Italian translation. Which means that I ordered the original. :P

(I know I could have got it off Amazon, but... well, I was there already, and it takes months for their stuff to arrive anyway. :P What I get off amazon.com, at least. I guess it's the ocean-crossing.)

Still. HAPPY! I don't know when it'll arrive, I'm afraid around the beginning of June, but. Aw. Happy.

(And geeky. Oh yes I'm geeky all right.)

Sweeeeet. I just recently picked up "Indiana Jones and the Sky Pirates." It is the cheesiest thing I have ever read. I am not even a little bit sorry for buying it.

Expensive book, though. I'm hitting up my local Chapters today to pick up a Star Wars book that's not supposed to be released for another week (but there's no strict on-sale date, I checked, and I would know since I WORK there). Might have to give that one a look see too!

Hahahaha! Really? XD I've seen some books along those lines in the bookshop - and those were in English ;P Aw, but isn't it the best thing ever when you can enjoy the cheesy just as much as you can enjoy the good? I've found that tends to be the marking of a fandom I could settle in comfortably enough ;D ♥♥♥

A little, yeah :( BUT the shop assistant told me the real price will very likely be a little lower, what with the current exchange and all... plus, much to my delight, I will probably not spend a cent on it anyway. ;D (There's this "fidelity card", at the bookshop, that grants you certain discounts if you reach enough points. It will probably end up covering the book cost. ;D)

Chica, just FYI, but I can always act as your US pirate when you need Amazon booty ;)

EXCELLENT! Some things are worth the wait! <3

YES YES YES! The waiting makes it even better. <33 I'm all happy just thinking about having it! <3

I... really don't. Honestly? I doubt it will be awesome. But I am also sure that the fact WON'T STOP ME FROM ENJOYING IT NONETHELESS! <3333333

YES! Though I am BLOODY SICK of waiting for my JB book that should have been here weeks ago. :(


I have very low standards with movies! Though I have to admit, it breaks my heart that there will be no John Rhys Davies. TT___TT

Oh! I love your icon, have I told you that? <33333333333

AAAAAAAAAAAAH OH MY GOD! :O I am so sad. SO DAMN SAD. You know when JB sings Anything Goes for the dvd extras? I was watching it, enjoying it, and thinking "my, this feels familiar, where have I heard it before?" AND TEMPLE OF DOOM IT IS. D: And I realized it only now! As I was checking out more Indy icons! Omg so sad.

WELL! I say that if you enjoy it, then it's good. *g* But I'm sad for John Rhys Davies too! :(( I'm going to miss Sallah ._.

NO BUT YOU SHOULD LOVE IT! XD (OMG I LOVE SHORTY! <333)

... OMG YOU'RE RIGHT! The horrible Chinese version of AWESOME! I really need to rewatch those movies ASAP!

I figure, Lucas has set the bar SUPER-LOW for me with the shit-hole Star Wars Episodes I-III, so YAY INDIANA JONES! Though yeah.. Sallah is the man.. *CLINGS TO YOU AND SOBS*

Oh YT! It makes life that much more filled with horrible videos of AWESOME! :D

*GROPES!*

But the original Star Wars are so WONDERFUL! And filled with young Harrison Ford! <333

The new film comes out the day of my sister's graduation from high school. I'm still befuddled as to how I'll manage both.

(And your new icons are love!)

Hehehehe! You could take your sister to the movies to see it as a gift? ;P

I don't know when I'll see it myself, as it definitely won't be on Release Date... and it's one movie I will probably end up watching on my own, but, well. I'm sure love will find a way. ;D

What? Wait! You're an Indy fan too? :O

Likely not so much as you... but I find Indy impossible NOT to like. And yes, I confess to finding Harrison Ford rightly sexy! <3

All right. See the icon you just used? I look EXACTLY like that.

And AWWWWWWW how MUCH I loved the man! I so would have married him. ...except for the age difference. Which I totally tried to ignore until, ahem, I read he had turned 52.

And the article was on the Mickey Mouse comics I used to read every week.

There was something about the juxtaposition that just drove the point home... ;P

I do verymuch love this icon. I feel that yes, my face really DOES look like that a lot of the time.

Hahaha, and that's okay, I like 'em old! *maybe has a thing for older guys, hence age-old fondness for R/S fics where they're all old and tired and in love. <333*

Hee, and you read Mickey Mouse comics? I always read Uncle Scrooge, myself. ;)
