Liam Neeson as Mall Santa

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Hello!

As some of you are probably aware, there’s a video of Liam Neeson that came out pretty recently. It’s of him “auditioning to be a Mall Santa.”

For some background: Liam Neeson is the one who played Qui-Gon. He also played a few other major action-y parts, including the main lead (so I understand) from the movie “Taken.” (In that film, there is a fairly famous speech about how he will track someone down, and on…)

So, yeah. Enjoy the “Mall Santa Audition”!

(Another) Stunning Version of Carol of the Bells

Greetings, readers!

I know that there has already been a version of Carol of the Bells shared this December. I happen to rather love that carol, however, and so I am sharing yet another.

This is a more conventional one, with a full choir.

I hope you enjoy, and have a lovely Tuesday.

(spoiler free) Rogue One Pet Peeve

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Hi!

So. I have a pet peeve pertaining to Rogue One. Well, sortof.

It’s more a pet peeve concerning people’s reactions to Rogue One.

For some reason, people keep on commenting about Bothans, and whether or not any die. This bothers me.

THAT’S ABOUT THE WRONG FREAKIN’ DEATH STAR!!!!

The Comment/quote in Question, “Many Bothans died to bring us this information”, is from STAR WARS VI: RETURN OF THE JEDI.. So, DEATH STAR 2.

NOT the Death Star 1.0, which gets blown up in Star Wars IV: A New Hope.

Anyway. That’s my primary (spoiler free) peeve regarding Rogue One.

Have a lovely Monday!

Re-sharing a Favorite Christmas Hymn: How Great Our Joy

Greetings, readers!

As you may recall, last Christmas Eve I shared a favorite seasonal song: How Great Our Joy.

The version I shared was a Cambridge Singers version. It had a lovely tone to it.

However, I found a more traditional harmonization version. It again is not as beautiful tone-quality, but it is still worth listening to.

I hope you have a lovely Sunday.

My dog is a bit tilted.

Howdy!

So, I previously posted about how my dog deliberately finds lumpy places to sleep. (Go figure.)

Well, today? I caught her not only on a lumpy location, but also with her body above her head. So, you know. Blood-rush towards he head. Or something.

It was cute, but in a “whatever, dog!” type of way.

And here’s a picture as proof.

Have a lovely day!

My Rogue One questions have been (mostly) answered.

Hi!

So, as I posted yesterday, I got to see Rogue One yesterday night! (Opening night! Yay!)

I am happy to report that a variety of the questions I asked in the previous post were answered. There are now new followup questions (like, how did they do THAT?!) but that’s part of the fun. I hope I’ll get to watch some of the behind-the-scenes when it comes out on DVD.

Oh, and yes, I do recommend watching it. I enjoyed it. (I do recommend keeping the timeline in mind, though… No, I’m not saying any more than that.) So, yep!

Have a lovely Friday!

I get to see the new Star Wars story soon, and I’m excited!!

Hi!

So, in case you didn’t remember, “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” technically is released tomorrow. In reality, that means it comes out tonight. And I have a great friend who’s organized an opening night adventure to go see it, and so I get to go see it soon! Whee!

(In case you couldn’t tell, I’m a bit excited about this.)

So, yeah. As you know, I’ve seen the trailers. I’ve done my best to not do anything spoiler-y, though. I have no clue what to expect. (I don’t even know who’s composing the soundtrack! Is it John Williams again? (I kinda hope so!) Will there be opening scroll-text? (I’m ambivalent about this, since it’s not one of the “official” Star Wars-es.) Will there be any Major Character overlap? (Besides Darth Vader, obviously, since we’ve seen him in the trailers…)

I don’t yet know. But I’ll be finding out soon! YAY!

…Yep.

Anyway. Happy Thursday!

My hair does NOT smell like bubblegum

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Hello!

I’m dealing with a slightly odd experience at the moment. I switched to a different hair conditioner. And it has an interesting smell. The best way to describe it is “bubblegum-y”. Except that it’s really not. It’s kinda sorta reminiscent of the fake bubblegum scent, but it’s still not entirely the scent associated with six-year-old-girls’ hair products.

So, yeah. I’m at a loss for words.

–as demonstrated by the 50 written above there.

Now I believe you.

Yeah. So. Anyway. About all I can say right now is my hair does not smell like bubblegum. And even if it did, it probably still wouldn’t, because it would actually be the conditioner that had the scent, not the hair itself. So there.

Anyway. Have a lovely day!

Of Dogs and Lumpy Locations

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Hi!

So. My dog. She’s being silly again.

I’ve noticed that she tends to find lumpy locations to sleep. If you give her the option of a nice, smooth bed, or a place with bunched-up fabric, she’ll take the bunched-up fabric. Always.

My best bet is that the lumpiness speaks to her inner-wolf by better imitating a cave. Or something. (No, I don’t quite know how to combine that with the fact that fabricy things aren’t as hard as rocky things. At least, they shouldn’t be…)

Anyway. I find it silly.

How about you? Do your animals do anything weird or ridiculous?

My dog talks in her sleep

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Hello!

So. My dog. She’s really adorable. She’s also loud. Sometimes at the same time, and occasionally all when she sleeps.

You see, she’s a bit of a sleep-talker. I think there’s only been once recently that she’s woken herself up because she was howling in her sleep (yes, it was as cute as it sounds). Last night and this afternoon, though, there was definitely a bit of grumbling and a bit of high-pitched “I’m-asleep-and-dreaming” barking going on. Combined with a bit of leg-twitchies.

It was really cute. A bit distracting last night while I was trying to sleep. But still cute.

So, yep. That’s the relevant part of my life, recently. How about you?
