YAY!!!!!!

Look at what I just pre-ordered-




And it's a signed copy!!!! YAY! YAY! YAY!

It's coming from Disneyland, too, in fact, Julie's having a book signing there today!

I paid 24.99, and I was going to use that to see The Wizard of Oz, but when I saw this last night I couldn't pass it up!

Once again, YAY! YAY! YAY!

She signed it?!? Did she sign it at Disneyland?!?! That's very magical- good for you!!!

Um, to be on-topic, last week I bought some "classic tees" from Old Navy for $3 each: red, blue, green, grey, and purple.

Well, I preordered it on the internet, so I don't get to see her in person, but I do know that the signed copy is coming from Disneyland! As it turns out, none of the books are there today at the actual signing, as there are apparently not off the printing press or something, but my book doesn't ship out till Novemeber, so I'm sure it will be signed!

I'm still so excited! One more, YAY!

That's awesome! You'll have to tell us how it is!

Oh, I definitely will! It'll be a few months until I get it, but I wasn't even planning on purchasing the book until December-January, so not only am I incredibly lucky, but I'm so excited!

My part time job temporarily went full-time, so in addition to putting some money away for moving to Austin next summer, I also went a bit nuts on Ebay and bought a couple of Hallmark ornaments BEFORE the after Christmas sales for a change (Going back for the Ghostubsters' Ecto 1 and the Tink ornament next time, and maybe some others; I really want the Dorothy, Ariel, and Charlie Brown Christmas Special ones too, but Ariel and Dorothy are nowhere to be found, and Dorothy and Charlie are too expensive!!!).

Here's some of the non-DVD stuff I picked up:

Gonzo Photo Puppet Replica by Master Replicas (couldn't afford Kermit... YET)



Ewoks animated TV series animation cels with background

Why are Disney's Roger & Jessica used on the cover? Did they just ask Disney for permission, and they let them?

Ha, I wondered that myself. I didn't even know the movie came out before the sequel book. I'm wondering if it is more of a sequel to the movie than to the first book. I haven't read either but have heard the original book is very different from the film. Anyway, I like that it has the movie versions on the cover, of course, but I'm annoyed that Jessica is tiny and standing on Eddie's shoulder, ha. What's up with that? Maybe it's part of the story, or else it's just a bad cover idea. I also wonder, was the first book ever released in hardcover? I have only seen paperbacks of it (with a creepy Roger).

I was curious, so I just looked on Wikipedia:

Who P-P-P-Plugged Roger Rabbit? is a mystery/humor novel written by Gary K. Wolf released in 1991 (ISBN 0-679-40094-X). The book is neither a sequel nor a prequel to Who Censored Roger Rabbit? or the film adaptation by Disney. It is just a spin-off story with the same characters, just different situations. This style is like Looney Tunes, where the episodes hold no continuity.

(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Who_P-P-P- ... _Rabbit.3F)

Thanks for looking that up. Hmm, well, that's kinda weird. I would think if they already know Eddie, it would have to be considered a sequel. If they don't, then, what, an alternate universe? Ha. Saying it's like a Looney Tunes cartoon doesn't really make sense, I wouldn't think.

Update:

I found some more interesting stuff on wiki about it:

In 1991, Wolf wrote another Roger Rabbit book, Who P-P-P-Plugged Roger Rabbit? (ISBN 0-679-40094-X), but, in the form of a memo from Valiant, the book says that Roger Rabbit "and his screwball buddies play fast and loose with historical accuracy," which means that the stories don't have much continuity between each other. There is absolutely no connection between this novel and the first one, with the exception of Jessica mentioning having a dream about Roger being framed for murder, and asking Valiant for help. In fact, the second book attempts to connect itself more with the film Who Framed Roger Rabbit than to the first book.

The novel contains most of the original main cast members, such as Roger Rabbit, Eddie Valiant, Jessica Rabbit, and Baby Herman. The personalities of each of these characters reflect more of their movie selves from Who Framed Roger Rabbit, such as Jessica's devotion to Roger and the rabbit's own more cartoony quirks, such as his speech impediment.

The story starts out with Eddie Valiant at the front door of Roger Rabbit's house. Almost immediately after he is let inside the house, Roger tells him about the upcoming Gone with the Wind toon adaptation and how he has a chance to play the lead as Rhett Butler. However, the Telltale News, a newspaper that tends to Toons, prints an article about Jessica Rabbit and her relationship with Clark Gable. Valiant primarily declines, stressing that he promised his wife, 'Doris' (who seems to be Delores from the movie), that he wouldn't take such work anymore. However, he takes the job because of the quote Roger announces.

From this simple case, the story branches out to the murders of Kirk Enigman (another candidate for the part of Rhett Butler), Baby Herman, and Dodger Rabbit (Roger Rabbit's evil cousin).

Just got the Toy Story Collection Rex from THe Disney Store. Had to get started with that Certificate of authenticity collection. I couldn't resist. In my area, I think they will just get impossible to find during the post Thanksgiving period.
