FIRST OFF, I'M BORED, YO:

Ask me a fandom, and I will tell you my:

+ OTP
+ Runner-up
+ Honorable mention(s)
+ Crack pairing(s)
+ Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't


Although I feel like my shipping tendencies are tragically obvious in almost all my fandoms, so, well. But maybe I will surprise you!


I can feel the weight of October pressing and maaaaan I still have no idea what I'm doing for Nano. CRAP. It doesn't help that Sophi is my only ~real life~ friend doing it this year and half the fun of doing Nano is being eons ahead of all the real life friends, except for Sophi because Sophi exists mostly to write like the wind and make the rest of us feel bad about ourselves. THIS YEAR, THE REST OF US IS ME. She's already got a head start and is fully plotted, because she is a crazy person. So that'll be fun. What about you kids though, you doing it?

I alsoooooo booked a flight to Austin the weekend of my birthday. MATT'S EL RANCHO HERE I COME, HELL YEAH.

Expandunpopular glee opinions! unpopular in the sense that no one will share them, not that they will negate anyone's happy feelings and/or your popular opinions. actually i'm mostly talking about the first thing, the rest is pretty much just straight up, everyday opinions. )

P.S. I don't know what it is about Glee but it brings out the worst in people's ability to use spoiler cuts, but EVERY SINGLE WEEK I have gotten a little bit spoiled by flisting in the hour before it airs here. Hey eastern and central time: not everyone gets to see things as soon as you! I know I can't police you and nothing major has been uncut, but just think about it before you post that one funny quote/your detailed emotional reaction to whatever in the middle of watching it! It's not that big a deal for me to avoid the internet the hour before tv starts, but then there are the west coasters and the non-north Americans for whom it takes even looooooonger so just, you know, think about it. It's considerate!

Anyway this has been sitting in semagic FOREVER, apparently I've forgotten how to post:
The meme goes as follows: Comment, and I will give you a person. Find a picture of that person for each category. Post the results in your journal.

[livejournal.com profile] goldenmelisande gave me ExpandBLAKE LIVELY, BONUS POINT FOR EVERY PICTURE THAT ALSO INCLUDES HER LESBIAN LOVER. )
elapses: (a. thank god she didn't leave earth)
Okay I can't decide if this is going to totally stress me out or be amazing or great fun or all three at once, BUT UM, HEY:

Comment with the name of a character, pairing, etc in one of my fandoms. I'll post you an "instant" mini-fanmix: a cover and 3-5 songs that remind me of that character/pairing/show/etc. I'll upload the songs and everything.

Hello dead weekend livejournal! I have kind of invented a meme. Well, "invented" is probably a strong word, I'd be super surprised if something like this has never ever been done before. But it's a kind of um, experiment to see how much information we accidentally pick up from reading our friendslist, but that makes it sound lame, and I THINK IT WILL BE LULZY TOO.

ANYWAY: what I want you to do is name a show I don't watch (if you want me to list the things I do like I will, but I think most of you have a decent idea of what I'm into and if you don't it's pretty well outlined in my interests -- OH, except for Psych, that's... recent and I've now seen enough that it would be cheating) and I will try to describe it to you (looking things up is obviously cheating, it's a test to see what random things have been picked up).


I'm actually equally (almost more?) enthused about the idea of feeding people shows though, so if you're bored too you should totally play on your own.
elapses: (f. just keep a slice of all the advice)
So maybe a week ago [livejournal.com profile] captaincatapult came up with this lovely litte meme thing that went like this:

Think of your favorite celebrity, the one who makes music sound better, movies and television brighter, the one you'd dash to the ends of the earth for if it meant you could save yourself from ever having to go a second without their magic. Then post your favorite 15ish photos of him/her! Your favorites of your favorite!

DELIGHTFUL, RIGHT???? The problem is I am not sure I have a celebrity like that. I have pervasive fondnesses for a long list of people, where I sort of smile when their name pops up (BY THE WAY, why didn't I know unti this week that Kate Mulgrew was in Equus with Danrad in NYC??? God, now I want to goooooooooo) but I don't think there's a single celebrity who could draw me to a movie theater with their name alone (although, tbf, I AM SO BAD AT SEEING MOVIES? The year is almost over and I'm pretty sure I've only seen four films in theaters), whose photo repretoire I know by heart (except I am actually inimately familiar with Rachel Bilson pictures??? I... don't even know.). I tend to obsess over my characters, and having a nice, funny actor who plays them is more icing than cake for me.

EXCEPT THEN I REMEMBERED ExpandMY LONG-STANDING LOVE AFFAIR WITH JUDY GARLAND!!!! )

I'm actually kind of glad Thanksgiving break is over, everyone I like from college went home and no one I like came home. I meant to do so much, though, and I did... pretty much none of it. STORY OF MY LIFE. I did discover the best yogurt brand at Whole Foods, though, it's called Rachel's and apparently it's British and they make flavors like Peach Green Tea and Berry Jasmine and Pink Grapefruit Lychee. YUM. And apparently Bones is moving to Thursdays in the spring, BLERG, of course they'd do that after Pushing Daisies is gone.

BUT I'M PRETTY SURE I DIDN'T SPRAIN MY KNEE? *\o/*?

Oh and happy birthday to both [livejournal.com profile] thecolorbetween and [livejournal.com profile] ofadoration! YOU TWOOOO. I'm almost too late as always, but I hope you had lovely days.

Remember months and months ago, that sort of cross between a fanmix and a meme where you pick a song for ten of your OTPs? Well I have finally, finally gotten around to it.

Expandlots of love stories! )

BY THE WAY, happy birthday yesterday to [livejournal.com profile] spentayearinla!!! This month I swear I'll get better at this.
