So there was this huge frelling storm that woke me up this morning. Lightning was pretty much flashing constantly and I couldn't hear the thunder above the sound of the pounding rain. It was also dark, being six thirty and all which is a really lousy way to wake up. It gets even worse when you realise you will soon have to abandon your toasty warm bed because you have to go to TAFE.

Brr.

So I went and saw Kingdom of Heaven last night which I enjoyed but now I am having these thoughts about a story that's kinda but not really based on the basic plot of the movie. It involves religion and faith and war and someone thought to be divinely possessed and it sounds really good in my head but alas, workload does not permit me to even think about it. Of oucrse, that never stopped me before. But that always seems to happen to me. I will go see a movie (most of the time a scifi or fantasy one) and when I get home I get all these ideas that I never end up writing down. So eventually I will have enough ideas that I can comile into one story that would be a rip off of every other story in existence. I think that would be a true and noble accomplishment.

ETA: First official picture of Katie Leung as Cho Chang... and to all those idiots you hated her before you even saw her picture and said she didn't look right well, she looks pretty fine to me.
