*gasps* What's this? Mimi's actually doing some squealing today? Why, yes, she is, so do, I advise you, ignore me. :D But whee! guess what? I went to this rather small book sale at the mall last Thursday to hunt for some classic lit and while amassing my uh, library (I ended up getting 14 books :D), my partner in the hunt, my mom, found... omg! Seriously, a few years ago, when it was my favourite book (after rereading it and the original story, I now have to say that the original is much better and is now my fave book ever.. *nods passionately*) , I was trying to find a copy of a certain title online and Amazon was giving me used paperbacks for 80$. I actually thought of stealing the copy from the library, but someone had already thought of it, so I had officially given up all hopes of attaining it, except as an e-book, and omg! the idiots had it for 30 cents... in the clearance bin!!! O__O I nearly fainted, but, he he he, added on top of that, there were actually prices on the insides of the books, ranging from 1-2$, yet the guy we went to thought we found all of them in the clearance bin or something, because we got them for 10$ cheaper than they should have been. He he he that's right, Mimi finally got some better luck and it's about time too! ... Although that was probably just so my ruined weekend after it wouldn't hit me as hard or something. :/ *sighs* That -would- be the only reason for it, I'm most convinced of it after the fact.

Yes, the rant is over, but the story isn't! :D )

Hmm... what was I going to say here? All that ugh, positivity from below has gotten rid of my train of thinking. -__-; Ah, I watched a pretty good movie on the weekend: I Am Dina. It's a Norwegian film co-produced with some other countries... I think I saw Denmark and Sweden in the credits, and it was gorgeous. I can see how the Norwegian Tourist Board was involved, since the shots of scenary and all the scenes of traditional customs were just beautiful. But yeah, that's ahem, my excuse for a review (and for filling this post up with nonsense)... I just don't think I entirely got the ending. Harumph. Hate when that happens... also would have actually preferred it in Norwegian, but seeing as it was actually *gasps, faints, swoons* a historical film, I am not complaining. :DDDD

Erm, the story? Please? *runs off to hide* )

Mandatory Introduction:
Hello! Welcome to Color me Blood Red, a weekly rotation site featuring oodles of music and videos for your listening/viewing pleasure. Fueled both by fellow requesters, my own tastes (mainly amazing, international metal), and featuring tons of various genres from just about everywhere. (ha ha I thought I should (finally) update my little intro ^^) *bows* Come on in and enjoy!!

Today's Random Thought (15/05/08):
(the first part didn't have much to do with this part, and it was cluttering everything up, so yeah...)...Which is probably some evil curse against me, since it's the 100th rotation... I didn't actually notice it. [info]iamnotamoose brought it up and I thought, hey! that's what it says. Alas, it's no celebration, since it's only because somewhere along the line, I decided to start counting them. :D I fear, after almost five *groans* years of almost weekly rotations (minus vacations and a few breaks) it's probably much more than that (Gah!! 250... that's a little sickening XD)... especially when I started counting what, two years ago. *shrugs* So ha ha yeah, nothing of much excitement, but I'm still a little disappointed it couldn't have been... fuller. -____-;;

*goes off to grumble and mumble somewhere else*

Gah! The next rotation is empty! Empty! Request away~! )

Going uh, a little south to... )
