Oh well, hello there. I didn't see you come in. Are you new here? Take your time, have a look around. This is my blog... place... thing. In here I write about silly mundane bits of life, television, music, books, and movies. Sometimes food. But mostly movies. Its purpose is my own amusement, but if it strikes a chord and you feel like staying a while, well then that's alright too.
