He must believe in housework fairies.

I don't believe he thinks anything through before getting mad at me, if you want the truth. He sees me sitting there, the house looks much the same as it did when he left that morning at first glance and without thinking, he gets mad. It doesn't do any good for me to point it out either, because that just humiliates him for getting mad which makes him madder!

Really, it's all an excuse just to be mad, if you ask me. He's been a jewel for a while now and I really haven't changed anything, because I was always pretty careful to get off the computer in the first place. But when he's ready to get hacked off, it won't matter what I do. Like a gosh darn roller coaster...I'm just waiting for the bottom to drop out from under me again. Makes me a tad anxious.

I hope the good-spirited Steve sticks around through the movie coming out.

The other night when he came in and rolled his eyes at me sitting there chatting with you, I told him "You told me that you wouldn't be home till 10:30pm...now I make every effort to not be on the computer when your around, but if you come in when I don't expect you...I can't be blamed." He actually laughed!

My... that went exceedingly well... the general never raised his voice, and decided to follow my recommended course of action (controvercial as it is...) course, that means more work for me in the short term...

Good morning, btw! I'm sipping hot coffee, trying to wake up. Steve and I sat up and finished watching the rest of the movie last night. He said he felt like the whole thing, not just the changed parts, seemed different. Clearer, both the picture and sound. He really liked it.

I haven't really...I mean really watched it yet. The first viewing was at the chat Wednesday and I had the second disk playing yester day while fixing dinner, etc. Wasn't much of a joke. Legolas needs humor lessons.

I'll have to get ahead on the crap before I can study it in any detail. :)

It certainly is much easier for a person who's never read the books to understand.

It just seems to me though, the whole thing looks like better quality. Like they went through and sharpened it up...fixed some of the color slightly. Hard to put my finger on, but I had noticed it and then Steve actually commented on it. This "widescreen" format just seems crisper than my other widescreen DVD of the cinema release version.
