We went and saw Zombieland this afternoon. Wheeee! I loved it. I now have "For Whom The Bell Tolls" by Metallica stuck in my head, and I want a Twinkie. A note for the squeamish: this is a gory, blood-spattered movie. If you don't do well with gore, you might want to give this one a miss. I, on the other hand, cannot wait until I can own my own copy of it.
Clicky-links!
If you wander over to the blog of Miss K of Aromaleigh, you can read all about how you can donate to a worthy cause AND get eye shadow custom-made for you. I think it's a great cause AND a tempting incentive. (I chose the school asking for books as my donation recipient, because books! Everyone needs books!)
The Victorian Dress-Up Doll for the novel Soulless! I love these sorts of online paper dolls (okay, I love paper dolls in general), and the fact that it's for one of my favorite new books is a bonus. (I'm also a smidge envious and coveting, because it's been a long-cherished dream of mine to eventually do some sort of Gothic Charm School paper doll thing. Someday, someday ...)
The Raven skirt from MorriganNYC. I covet this skirt SO MUCH. I'm waiting to hear back from them to find out if they have any of the black with silver print left in stock. I need to find someone who is capable of doing finely-detailed screen printing and talk over some ideas with them. But until I do, I'm going to be keeping a close eye on the offerings from MorriganNYC, yes indeed.

Speaking of movies, beware the trailer for Cirque du Freak. I found it overly spider intensive. You had warned me about the books, of course, but it still came as an unpleasant surprise.

Thanks for the warning. It's a shame, really, since it looks really funny, but I barely made it through Shaun of the dead.

(To preface as to why or how I'm 'stalking' your Livejournal, I just very recently noticed it was featured in the Livejournal Spotlight and I recognized you as the author of "The Gothic Charm School" book/site... My apologies if this offends however).
But anyhoo, I'd have to agree entirely - "Zombieland" 'twas most amazing, awful in a totally good way AND quite endearing.
And lastly, I don't know if you've made such a post before, but have you ever made a list or a critical review of books you're especially fond of? (I'm always seeking good reads, but as of late there seems to be a dearth of decent vampire/etc. books)...
