I sort of expected to dream about Glee last night, since I've been watching episodes of that and downloading its music for the last couple of days--I'm late to the party, so I'm catching up all piecemeal-like, but so far I really like it ( Read more... ) -
Ow, ow, ow.
Before I get to my personal ridiculousnesses, everybody keep on praying for Japan, eh? It's breaking my heart to see the footage from the northeastern prefectures--I'm so SO glad Tsuki's safe, and I just wish I could contribute in any meaningful way to the recovery effort. I feel so stupidly lucky to be here in my warm house, with no rushing ( Read more... ) -
I need an icon titled 'just shoot me in the head.' >_
I am at the end of my rope. Seriously. Spud wants to put--no, he says the house WILL be on the market in two weeks. And our realtor just emailed today to ask whether we've been unfaithful, 'leaving' her for another agent. Um, no. ML? I just HATE MAKING PHONE CALLS, and would rather chew off my own leg than talk to contractors. Or anyone who ( Read more... ) -

Today was my father's seventieth birthday! It sounds like he had a happy one, with lasagna and cake and grandchildren and all sorts of fun. ^_ ( Read more... ) -
who *DOESN'T* want to stab me in the leg? ^o^
So, today was my first outing with an epi-pen in my purse. >_< For those folks who aren't already FB friends of mine--I had a scary allergy attack on 9/17, during an exercise walk with friends. It wasn't the first time my throat tried to close up, so I was pretty sure I'd be able to breathe long enough to get to some Benadryl, but my friends ( Read more... ) -
Vork, no-one's more heroic!
I seriously need to stop watching old episodes of The Guild--or, at the very least, I need to stop freebasing "Do You Want to Date My Avatar." ^o^ Preferably before I start speaking in Zaboo-isms. Or wanting to join an MMORPG, since I would totally be Mr. Wiggly! I would never ever be accepted into a guild, with less-than-zero experience, and ( Read more... ) -
huh.
Am re-reading (and occasionally editing [don't worry, babaca and fenris_wolf0, I'll email changes to you before publishing anywhere, promise!]) old old Gundam Wing fanfiction, and I'm struck by how rarely I used proper names. Not that I usually replaced them with fangirl epithets (e.g. 'the braided pilot,' gack)--but I used an awful lot of pronouns. Which makes me ( Read more... ) -
festivity first, and then snark
First, happy moon/mid-autumn festival! Munch a mooncake for me, please? (Since I waited too long to shop for them, and all the Chinese market had left were the ones with the icky egg yolks. >.< I know it's a delicacy, but for me, yeugh!)

Wah!
My son and I are both openly weeping, having watched the last 2/3rds of Snow Falling on Cedars. Benya is tearfully informing me that he hopes his sweetheart doesn't choose someone else, and I'm just plain bawling. ;_; I explained the various scenes as best I could, given his (pretty damn high, actually) level of comprehension, but there's a ( Read more... ) -
but what does THIS button do?
Very sorry to have cluttered up many of your friends' pages with a massive uncut wall of text--I was trying to use html tags in rich-text editing mode, and made a huge hash of things. ###>_<###;; It's fixed now, I think? I hope!
For those who didn't have that dubious pleasure, and are interested in checking out the fic, I've reposted my very ( Read more... )
