Feeling creative lately?

So I recently caught the old sewing bug (I used to sew a lot when I was a kid - damn those sweat shops*). I would make my own clothes and such and gained a sense of accomplishment when I was done. I also enjoyed taking old clothes and making them fresh and flattering again.

Like all things, I outgrew them only to inevitably jump back on ye olde horse many moon down the road.

A friend forwarded me this link to ThreadBanger - a blog dedicated to creating new and excited things (not necessarily clothing) out of used, old, recycled items.

Enjoy!

*Yes, I was joking. Calm down.

G-O-D

Me: "Are you down with G-O-D?"
Mel: "I like dogs."

I have no idea why I asked that to begin with but the response was hi-larious.

Phantom of the Whatsit

Things I knew but didn't care to register:

Music of the Night and All I Ask of You from Phantom of the Opera are not the same song. True story.

Review comment on Twilight

From Rotten Tomatoes:
"Unlike the 'Harry Potter' series... the 'Twilight' series appears to be in capable hands right off the bat."

Okay, I will begin by saying 'Twilight' was absolute shite! This isn't coming from the fan of the books. If anything, I think they should have worked with the story of the book but not rely on its popularity or melodramatic dialogue that really doesn't translate well when you say it out loud (though, let's face it, the film flick will make a lot of money this weekend). This is coming from someone who has working eyes, ears and a brain. I'd like to think even the 'tweens will be insulted by this but then again, when in my 'tweens, I was loving 'Reservoir Dogs' and 'True Romance'.

This wasn't mean to be a review of the movie but I have to say this: you know when shows get a script and everyone does a round-table read-through? It's as though THAT was filmed and half-assed edited and then distributed.

But I digress.

My point about the above is this: Ummm, let's forget that you deluded yourself into believing you saw a half-decent movie. Did you just slam 'Harry Potter'? If one film (or series of films) made a smooth transition from books to screen, it's that one. That is all.
