Words today: 535
Words total: 2685
Reason for stopping: needed to work on webpage stuff
Sustenance: coffee a pumpkin death-muffin
Exercise: 50 min yoga. I did an extra ten because I knew I was going to eat the death-muffin.
Tyop: n/a
Darling: "If you're going to kill me, could you at least not be so fucking cryptic?"
Mean things: I'm pretty sure Gabriel's crypticness is a side-effect of my broken dialoguer. All of us suffer for it. :P

On the webpage front, I hate gifs. Hate them, precious!

And for the second half of our show, Resident Evil: Extinction

It's fun, it's silly, it's a lot better than RE2. Oded Fehr remains HAWT, and Milla Jovovich doesn't suck as eye candy either. I was laughing pretty much through the whole thing, especially during the Umbrella Corp meetings--it was so much like a VLARP meeting I nearly cried*. Especially Mr. Sunglasses Ventrue. The laughter, it hurt.

But the question grew on me the more I watched: what the everliving FUCK was up with airbrushed-Milla? Whiskey Tango Fruitbat?! It wasn't in every scene, just enough to annoy the crap out of me and be very dangerous in the drinking game**. Did Milla have bad acne when they were filming, or perhaps a nasty case of jaundice? She's only 32, folks, and could stand to eat a cheeseburger. Not in such dire need of the airbrush.

It did inspire me to work on my zombieocalypse story, though.

--------
* Speaking of Vampire, Milla, and my pathetic geekery... Between The Messenger, The Fifth Element and the REs, I'm developing the beast trait Milla Crying. Seriously. Every time she cries or makes that little chokey tearing-up face, my urge to kill goes through the roof. Stop it, directors, stop it!

** The RE drinking game includes such drinking opportunites as:

Alice wakes up wet
They reuse old footage/sets
Someone says "you're all going to die", or some variant
Milla cries or makes that chokey face
Airbrushed Milla (added half-way through this film; it was a good thing I only had water at hand)

I thought I had more, but those five are enough to stay pretty tipsy for a while. Feel free to add your own. I'd say "when someone hides their infection, endangering the party", but really that's every zombie movie.
