Imdb goodness

I've just discovered another great unexpected benefit of the "view trailer" feature on Imdb.com.

I find a film I'm curious about, watch the trailer. Depending on what I started out with the list of "people who liked this film also liked..." can be long and rich and it's always difficult not to keep watching more trailers for a bit.

But I just discovered the best way ever to get a "quick fix" of "romantic" movies. :-D I generally don't pick a romantic movie when I get to watch full length ones (there are so many other genres to enjoy!). I stumbled on a romantic movie ("Dear John") and watched the trailer, then went on to another, then another and suddenly I was full and needed to see no more of it. :-D A few minutes was enough, no need to watch the whole film... X-)

Ding 82

Underwater mount - seahorse!
Dinged level 82 with Glömsk yesterday.

Picked up the game the day before yesterday, after a four month break. Ended up playing "aquatic" quests, I have really always had a soft spot for the under water world gifted to me by Blizzard. I remember the first time swimming and diving (and dying a lot) in the game, too thrilled to keep track of the airsupply... :-D

Easier now, when the character earns/is given an ability to "breathe" under water by the initial quest giver of the area. :-)

Yeah, where IS that winter?

Scandinavians.
I really, really don't see the point in the type of winter we're having right now. Really.

If I wanted this type of winter I'd settled down somewhere even further south. Or better yet just skip the whole concept of winter all toghether and settle down somewhere nice and cozy, like Australia.

Sure, keeping the house warmed up during winter has never been cheaper, so that's something. But having to buy new rainclothes for the kids SEVERAL TIMES during the same season because they wear them out - unheard of! :-[
