PotC II and fish and music
Jul. 10th, 2006 06:02 pmAaaaand Sexy!Minion spoilers me (and the entire department) for the very end of Pirates2.
Whoops. >_<;
Don't think she quite realized what she was doing, but.
Ah, well. I'll not hold it against her. I've still got the whole rest of the movie to look forward to. Eventually. ^_^
I hear it broke box office records; I know it was sold out all weekend here in town.
Maybe we can hope for a Best Actor win this year. Depp is an incredible character man, is remarkably good at what he does, and it'd be nice to see that recognized.
In other news, both new fishies are thus far still alive. PearlyBlack dude seems pretty healthy; Golden boy seems...not really un-healthy, per se, so much as less active than the other. Or perhaps he might just be a little cold, damn the climate. *sticks him under a lamp* We shall see...
I know Goujun could stand to be a litte warmer. His lamp burnt out last night; I've got to get him another. In the meantime, though, he's beautifully white without the incandescent bulb turning him fleshy-colored and translucent. I wish there was a way to keep the temp up in these little tanks without having them under a spotlight 24/7.
At least all the boys are in clean water, and Goujun's plant got a manicure while it was out of the tank so as to be less of a hazard to his fins - I'm still not sure if he tore his tail on the plant or by some other means but I clipped back all the pointy ends as a precaution. And Nataku has a new plant (all green! and silk!) that brightens him up even more. He's a great big beefy little chunk of fish by now, too, especially in comparison. Both the crowntails are relatively small. Goujun is a slender, lithe, agile little thing. Nataku is a sleek, fearsome little warrior, all compact muscle and fishy bad-ass-ery. ^_^ I do love my little boys, I do. Hee.
And. As my calendar tells me that today/tonight is a full moon (not that I see a whole lot of the moon during the summers, here), I bring you a little lycanthropic love. Of a musical variety.
Sonata Arctica - Full Moon
Awesome Finnish power/speed metal. Machine-gun rhythms under soaring melodies and blended harmonies and liquid-crystalline primal vocals. Very classical. Happy ears, happy ears. ^_^
Type O Negative - Wolf Moon
Slow, dark gothy stuff. It's...it's Type O. I'm not quite sure how else to describe it. ^_^;
