boom de yada, boom de yada...

Things what I did this weekend:

1) Saw Wall-E. Awwwwwwwwwwwww. And had amazing dinner beforehand.

2) Finished Tristan's vest!
2a) ...and worked with leather for the first time! And it was way easier than I thought it would be! Thanks again aviendiora; there was *exactly* enough space on that smaller piece to fit one of the fronts.
2b) ...and now have a good base pattern for a vest/shirt/tunic that fits sirrogue. Thanks, Burda 2459! I hope the jacket pattern works equally well.

3) Watched (well, mostly listened to) season 1 of Danny Phantom. Thanks, raykel! Rogue listened with me (since he was playing WoW) and agrees that it's very fun. As expected, I liked Sam a lot. And Jazz. Yay, girls! Also, a strange fondness for Danny's billionaire archenemy guy.

4) Actually watched a whole episode of Smallville. (sirrogue has been marathoning it; I usually just listen from upstairs.) It was the episode in the sixth season where they first have the Justice League (except they didn't actually say JL) and I giggled like a little girl. Love their little hoodie outfits. If I were a boy, I'd totally make Beaver's Bart's Impulse costume.

5) BEAT LEGO STAR WARS II (original trilogy)!!!! Er, almost two years after we got it. It was a lot easier once we realized you didn't *have* to beat Super Story in an hour. (How anyone could possibly beat ROTJ in that time, I have no idea.) And played the first adventure of Lego Indy. As I've said before, the Lego games are the only kind I really enjoy, because they're intended for eight-year-olds. So they're only a little bit above my level.

I really should get back to Lego Star Wars, I think I'm still in the beginning of The Empire Strikes Back... It was taking me forever to get through the ice base attack. So how is Lego Indy? I saw it in the store, but think I might have to wait a bit for the price to come down to at least the cost of the PC version.

Lego Indy is fun! I want to play Marion and no one else. *g* It's a little more complicated than SW; there are more things you can do, and more things to notice.

Oh, yay, you watched Danny! I adore Sam and Jazz! And Danny, and Tucker, and Maddie, and Jack, and... yeah. And you're right, Vlad is a cool villain. Not really in and of himself, but because of the emotional impact on Danny.

Season two was even better. Season three... well, I liked it, but I seem to be in the minority. The hour-long eps of season two ROCK, though.

I really enjoyed it! I definitely have to rewatch when I can actually take the time to, y'know, *watch* the episodes. *g* I'm enjoying second season a lot so far-- we just finished the pirate episode. :)
