I haven't been at home at all until now 1:55 am and when I check my LJ and emails I received a Christmas present of sorts: Now I have a paid account!!! 15 user pics!!!

I was surfing around my posts and I saw them differently but I supposed it was because yesterday I learned that I had 6 user pics intead of 3... Anyway, after reading my emails I knew what it was. *silly grin*

Edited: I didn't realize before but they are in fact 100 user pics!!! Do I have enough icons for that!!! Whoever you are, you are really really nice!!! (I kind of receive LJ mails with delay lately so I did't realize it until I checked my userinfo again!)

The nicest person who has done this, please, let me tell you that I really appreciate the present and the gesture!!!! If you want to remain unknown, I respect it but I would like to know who you are so I can put a name to the person this nice surprise came from ;)

Anyway, thank you so much again!!!! I would elaborate more but I really have no words ;) :D

I know everybody else has already posted this but I've been dealing with the news since very late last night :(

John Spencer has died and I'm very sad and sorry. My thoughts are with his family and friends and his coworkers in The West Wing. I hope he is happy wherever he is.

He was Leo McGarry! I love that character because he was and he is Leo McGarry. He made that character what it was, what it is.

Leo is one of my favorite characters. His relation and discussions with Josh were great!!!

To remember him, I'm posting some parts of the Pilot where he just steals the show from the beginning.

Clicking here you'll find it. It's long, I warn you. )

The sad news of John Spencer's sudden death, put end to a day, yesterday, that it was really nice in the rest of things: I got the present of a paid account, I received some of the things I bought online, all together, what it is a bit of a Christmas present situation, and I went to see The Chronicles of Narnia.

I really wanted to see the movie, for all I've read about it. I wasn't familiar with the books so for me, apart from what people have said about the story in their posts, I didn't know anything about the Narnia universe. The movie is just marvelous, really beautifully and carefully made. The cast is superb (all the boys, James McAvoy, Jim Broadbent and Tilda Swinton). The story has it all: adventure, drama, comedy, sweetness... I can't help it but my favorite thing in the movie is Lucy and Mr. Tumnus relation. It's so simple but so complex... the girl gave her hand for him to shake and in that moment she already touched Tumnus' heart. I think Georgie Henley and James McAvoy were splendig in those scenes together... so touching!!

Usually if I like something a lot, like this case, icons will come... and here they are. All Lucy and Mr. Tumnus *grin*
