we got all night

Saw Deathly Hallows part 2. I liked it. I'll refrain from saying I loved it because it didn't feel like a full movie. It just started where we left off and continued. And I only saw DH1 once, at midnight with a foggy brain. And I figured everyone would enjoy it and couldn't wait to see what everyone had to say online. When I got online and saw all the negative comments I ended up agreeing, too. So not a perfect movie and not a great translation of the book but a nice ending.

Snape made me tear up and all my emotions for him, Remus, and Neville came back. So I'll probably be annoying for a while just getting wrapped up in this world again. Being late to the fandom, I can't say I'm devastated that it's all over. I caught myself yesterday saying something about how DanRad needs to stop yelling spells so much and I went, "Well, next movie! ....waaaaaaait." But besides that, I'm actually okay. I'd read more things in the universe but I think I'm okay with just the epilogue. And I actually thought that part was cute, although Ginny still looked oddly young. I want to go back and watch all the movies again, read the books again, read Shoebox, watch AVPM (which I'm finishing today--why is the first act SO LONGGGGGGGGG), watch AVPS, catch up on Wizard Rock and start paying attention to when artists I like are nearby, go to at least a few HP cons nearby... and that's about it. I sort of want to join a land comm or RP but I'm horrible at remembering a lot of things from this universe and wouldn't be accurate or much help. We'll see how long I can resist.

Also just bought the remaining bits of my Ravenclaw uniform. For at least one day for NYCC I will dress up like that.

Didn't go out last night. The bus took forever to get me where I was going and I would've been a half hour late to the play. But I have somewhere to go tonight and the play is only running Sat/Sun/Thurs. So I hope I can go Thursday night. Instead I watched Act 1 of AVPM. Tumblr has converted me into a Darren Criss fan. I won't watch Glee. But anything else D.Criss related, send my way.

Also, related to nothing else in this entry but it needed to be said: I'm officially done with my sims legacies. I haven't updated them in forever and no one cares about Sims 2 anymore. I still play them now and then, but I also have other families I started so it'd be 2022 before I reached the 10th generation on either legacy.

It's been so long since I took half of these pictures that I hardly remember what was going on in them.

We'll just play along like I do, but let's re-introduce everyone just in case.

I just realized there's been a discrepancy in the way I spell "Spencer." Oh well, I'm not editing them all now. But for now on, it'll be "Spencers", because that seems to be my mind's preferred spelling.

I just realized how you're supposed to number legacies. The problem is, that I'm not going with the usual "heir" type of legacy. So the children grow at different rates and that means it could still be one generation while the other house is up to generation two. So I'm waiting until the youngest kids have babies before actually changing numbers. So it's still generation 2 here... got it? OK.

So this is the first part of the Spencers legacy. I know, technically it began with Lia & Shawn's posts. But I'm starting the "generation counting" now. Legacy is a very LOOSE term. I'm not going to pick heirs or have six babies each generation. We're going to follow as many couples and whatnot in the family as we can.

It's not the last of Lia & Shawn either. They still have Max and Ali living there and they're being included in this legacy too.
