I don't know, but I'm glad we're back.  Didn't want to suffer withdrawal pains.  ;D

Where was I? In the cinema, watching Tom Tykwer's Perfume - The Story of a Murderer. So it was only a couple of minutes for me that I couldn't log on. No withdrawal symptoms...   ::)

The movie is very well worth seeing, by the way, and Ben Wishaw, who plays the protagonist, is fantastic. Watch out for this young British actor!  :)

I was supposedly getting work done, but in the meantime I posted a worried message on my LJ, and then started a refugee thread on Dave Cullen's board, and kept checking Meryl's thread on IMDb...

And then finally finished my work and sat down to watch "Finding Nemo" with my three-year-old. (This the second movie we've tried to watch. I tried to watch "The Wizard of Oz" with him about four months ago, but he decided the Wicked Witch was scary. We barely got to the title screen of "Finding Nemo" before he got really upset that "the fish lost his friend."  I didn't tell him that that was Nemo's mommy that got eaten by the big scary fish... he was traumatized enough by the idea of the fish losing his friend.)

I'm glad he's empathizing. And I'm glad that videos exist, so I can test them out on him at home.

We'll probably wait for another six months before we try another movie. Or maybe I'll see if there are even less scary things out there.

oh!! I am so jealous....my baby did an awful awful thing I am not sure I will EVER forgive him for....he GREW UP!!  >:( >:( :'( :'(

I MISS him as a toddler...why can't we keep the old version when the new one shows up?? I love him as a teenager but lort he was the cutest toddler...

I have been out picking apples all day so I have no idea what even happened.  Would someone share any specific error message they got or some sort of time frame so I can explore what was going on?
