Bring out the Turkey!

I'm saved!!! Thanksgiving break is here.

No, actually, I'm kind of bored. But oh well. Thanksgiving's going to be a blast. We're going to throw a thanksgiving night party and do a lord of the rings marathon, especially for one special individual who has NEVER SEEN THE MOVIES!!! (Is it even possible?) Anyway, we'll probably stay up really late and all get sick, and then I will be bored AND sick. But the marathon (and food and drink that goes along with it) will have been worth it.

On another subject, has anyone bought tickets yet for December 9th? We've got them for 12:01 AM, everyone here is really excited. (BTW, for those of you staring at the date, "December 9th", it's the opening date for 'The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. If you have no idea what that is, get off your computer, go outside, and get a life.:) For those of you who do, though, don't forget to get your tickets.

OK, moving on. I had a great birthday deep in the Mountains of Colorado, in the quaint skiing town of Breckenridge. We had a relaxing day, and at the end of it, I had my first fondue experience. Sounds like a ninja move gone bad, but tastes like heaven. It was awesome! Besides the food part, the experience part of it was incredible, everyone should try a fondue sometime in their life, It's delectible (especially the white/dark mixed chocolate fondue part at the last. Now that's incredible, or I don't know the meaning of the word).

I also got a few gifts, one of which was a CD. And a really good one at that. I've posted a short review of it on MereImage, I'll leave it to you to go and look it up yourself.

Anyway, I probably won't post again for some time, so I wish all of you a sincerely happy thanksgiving, and hope that you are truly blessed by this festive season (how's that for cliche-drenched tidings?!!). I wish you all a goodnight.

Post Script:
I found this via this blog. I won't tell you what it is, you have to go there and find out yourself! I guarantee you won't be disappointed.

Douglas Gresham Speaks!

Yes, it's true, finally we get an inside look into Narnia, and it's creator, C.S. Lewis, through the eyes of his stepson, the aforementioned Douglas Gresham. In an exclusive interview with Christianity Today columnist Mark Morning, Gresham relates his early life with Lewis, or "Jack", as he was better known to his friends. The interview is divided into two parts; in the first, Gresham talks about C.S. Lewis' private life, and gives a new angle on how Lewis really lived. In second, Gresham talks about his experience of working with Walden Media and the cast and crew of the upcoming film, 'The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe'. Another inside look on how he helped to preserve Lewis' original vision of the books.
