Happy New Year, y'all.

Here's hoping it's a good one for all of you.

Five years ago Scott and I got married.

We're celebrating by sleeping late and playing Star Wars: The Old Republic before we go get dinner and a movie. Fifth anniversary is "MMORPG and comics," right?

And for my next trick, watch me teach myself how to knit!

It took two days, several youtube videos, a couple of how-to websites, and a lot of cursing, but I have the beginning stages of a fuzzy purple hat down. And I think it's time to call it a night because my left hand is swelling.

I'll post pictures of however it turns out :-D

Dear author,

Thank you for doing this, because you are awesome. I hope you have fun with this, first and foremost.

( Things I like/don't like regardless of fandom. )

Scott: "So with Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom coming out tomorrow, I've decided I need to learn to play Phoenix right."
Me: "...you're gonna die?"
Scott: "What? No. Phoenix WRIGHT. The lawyer. And I'm gonna play him with Tony Stark, who obviously needs a lawyer."

I'm talking Boardwalk Empire with my mom on the phone right now.

Her impersonation of Margaret Schroeder is hilarious.

I wish I had this recorded, because as bad as I am at accents, Mom is a thousand times worse. She sounds like she's trying to be a Disney princess or something, I don't even know.

This is going to take forever to type. My hands are incredibly stiff and I can't even bend one of my fingers, but I still managed to bash out about a thousand and a half words this morning, so hey ( Read more... )

Went to Onicon yesterday with Scott, theantitexan, smiko and a couple more friends. It was... interesting. Highly distracting and amusing, at the very least. I kind of wish I could have found a suggestion box. In any case, seeing people in costumes was fun, watching Scott twitch was fun, hanging out with friends was fun, and it was a pretty good time all around ( Read more... )

I can definitively say that I hate the hours between 2 and 7 in the morning. 8 can't come soon enough.

On the upside, Extra Life broke a million dollars raised for the first time ever! Which is awesome, so the grouchiness is worth it.
