"That's two words," said Dibbler.

I went swimming yesterday (and will do so today, though not out of joy.

I then went to the movies to watch Das Leben Der Anderen, which was really good. (Don't believe me? Won Oscar for best Foreign Film, and has another 33 awards and 10 nominations.) The character of Hauptmann Gerd Wiesler (played by Ulrich Mühe) was incredibly sympathetic - a clear case of actions louder than words. The man rarely says anything, or does anything, too overt. There's a lot of quiet scenes of him, where he's thinking, but the audience just sees the results.

I also uploaded some horrific bits of writing on

sickle_stories. Not horrific, really, but enough of a fuzzy subject matter that I'm considering taking it down again. (It's classified as Mary-Sue-ish and self-insertionist, so that'll give you an idea.)

Do you have any idea how bloody hard it is to find an appropriate quote for such a lame post as this?
