Feb. 9th, 2005 08:55 pmOK. Time for some more Viggo movie reviews. I recently ordered three DVDs from antisoshal.com: Gimlet, Ruby Cairo and The Crew. So I had a three-evening Viggo Bad Guy session.;) Quite gratifying, to say the least...

On a different note, I got really pissed at work today. They have blocked access from our company's server to the main LiveJournal page!!! It wasn't enough for them to filter all commercial websites and Yahoo mail. They had to take away LJ too. Callous bastards.;) But I didn't give in to despair. I outsmarted them. I did a Yahoo search for a random user name from my flist... and it worked! No one is taking my daily slash away from me.;) I mean, it's not like I am neglecting my work because of it. All I'm doing is filling up the down time. What difference does it make to them whether I'm reading online fiction or a tattered paperback??? I am an intelligent person and I refuse to just stare mindlessly into a blank computer screen. I scored as Verbal/Linguistic, and I need words to furnish my beautiful headspace. A human being does not live on bread alone...
On a still different note, I just realized I did something stupid. I posted this little A/L ficlet here a few days ago, and I was kinda wondering why it went completely unnoticed... until it hit me. I had kept it as a private post for about 3 days while I was working on it, then changed the security level to public when I was done. I also changed the date to the current one, but apparently this didn't stop it from appearing on people's flists among the entries from February 3rd, instead of 6th. So that's probably why no one even saw it (and my hopes of some much-desired feedback went unfulfilled:(). I don't know what to do about that now, but should anyone be interested, I just posted it at the
aragornlegolas community. Not that I'm pimping or anything.;) Just curious whether people would actually want to read my stuff. Being a Verbal/Linguistic does make you wonder about that, you know... :D
