A;LKSDFJA;SLKDJ;ASLKDFJ A;SKDFJ YOU GUYS

MY MOM JUST CAME HOME

AND SHE WAS LIKE "SO YOU DON'T HAVE ANY PLANS FOR TONIGHT"

AND I WAS LIKE "UH NO?"

AND SHE WAS LIKE "GOOD
I BOUGHT TICKETS FOR THE TWO OF US TO SEE AVENUE Q
GO GET READY"

fhjfjghgjjufjghhgh <3333

EDIT: Everyone ignore me. :B Not deleting on account of comments.

So! I am totally doing NaNoWriMo this year, mostly because I know many of you would kill me if I didn't. And I have ideas! Many many ideas!

PROBLEM: I have no idea which idea I want to do. :B

SO I thought I would propose my current ideas to you, LJers, and ask you for any input you may have. I'm... really not partial to any one of these over another at the moment, though WHO KNOWS that may change when November rolls around. BUT ANYWAYS!

(Also, because I think in terms of character, most of these are described in terms of characters involved.)

A: Tyler, Lydia, and Cadence
Tyler didn't ask to be psychic. He didn't ask to have other people's thoughts in his head all the time, and he most particularly didn't ask for this to happen in addition to all that goes along with high school. But life's funny that way. It's during his first week of a new school (again) that he meets Lydia: general outcast, teenage conspiracy theorist, and lifetime believer in werewolves, ghosts, psychics, and supernatural phenomena. He also meets Cadence, whose father is an amiable but entirely crazy pseudoscientist determined to prove people like Tyler exist. And Cadence? Well, she would be thoroughly happy if her father would pay attention to her just once.

Woobies with superpowers, evil research labs, and rampaging daddy issues? THIS MUST BE AN OLIVIA NOVEL :OO In all seriousness, despite the inherent silliness of this, I'm... actually kind of charmed by it. And I like Cadence more than I should. XD

B: April, Michael, and Rose

This was my plan for Script Frenzy this year, back when a few people were doing it and I was like LOL IDK MAYBE :B And then I lol idk'ed my way through about half the month, and by then I figured it wasn't really worth it. ANYWAYS, it is a... actually pretty serious drama with meta overtones, about three siblings and ~serious questions~ about ~identity~ and ~loss~ BUT I ACTUALLY LIKED SOME OF MY IDEAS. And I thiiink it would translate okay to novel form? IF NOT I'LL PROBABLY DO IT FOR SF NEXT YEAR
...PROBABLY

C: Katelyn and Juliet

Those of you in Exit 51 might remember these two. <3 It was the weirdest thing: I sat down and was like "OH I know, I have a story idea about some cute lesbians, I'll submit it to the magazine!" So I sat down and I wrote my fluffy story about fluffy lesbians, and I sent it in, and it got in, yay yay... but then they would not let me go. I just kept thinking about them ALL THE TIME-- I sketched Juliet in my notebooks, I started imagining what their first date was like, they're most of the reason I went through that phase where I was obsessed with Recessional-- and I think I could seriously keep going with them. Only problem is I don't have much of a plot beyond CUTE LESBIANS :DDD but... I could probably make quite a lot up as I went along.

D: LTH (Tomiko, Peter, Mark, Neyane, and Griffin)

LTH is the fantasy satire project I've been working on for two NaNos straight now because I haven't managed to finish it and argh. ARGH. On the one hand, I would like to try my hand at something else-- on the other, despite all of its dumbness I seriously fell for some of these characters (MARK IN PARTICULAR OMG MARK MAAAAARRRRRK) and I have ending-related ideas that could actually work and I just want to get it done. AND I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN DO THAT OUTSIDE OF NANO. BUT ALSO I DON'T KNOW IF I'LL ENJOY ONE OF THE OTHER IDEAS MORE. ARGH.

E: Fanfic

I kind of just threw this on there, just to have it as an option because I probably could write a 50k fanfic, knowing me, and I've been tossing around the idea of doing a huge-ass PW project for a while, but YOU KNOW WHAT? I could drag the big meanfic (yeah, some of you know) out to 50k EASY. And it would be an AWESOME(ly mean) 50k too. True story.

GIVE ME YOUR THOUGHTS I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THEM PLZ

(Working on long rambly video game music post, so that's coming, but I has an important question in the interim.)

SO FLIST. Today I got an email that said my account had been credited with 12 months of paid-account time as an "anonymous gift." THIS IS TOTALLY AWESOME, AWESOME BEYOND AWESOMING but what I am curious about is: was this one of you? :O Do you know who this was? DID YOU MEAN TO SEND THIS TO SOMEONE ELSE WITH A SIMILAR-SOUNDING NAME AND INSTEAD YOU GOT ME if you did, I am sorry. Does LJ just randomly hand out paid accounts for the lolz?

I WOULD JUST... REALLY LIKE TO KNOW SO I CAN THANK YOU PROPERLY. And comments to this entry are screened, if you would really like to remain anonymous that badly.

So. Tonight the parents were out and Hannah's with the cousins, and what do I do?

Spend my six-ish hours alone beating Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box, that's what I do. :B

I will say this, to start, spoiler-free: those of you who played the first one remember the huge freaking out-of-nowhere plot twist right near the end, right?

Diabolical Box is just like that, only all the time.

It's like wait wtf
wait wtf
WTF
WTF

Even Layton, in one cutscene, just has an expression like "seriously guys wtf is going on"

And yes, it is probably harder than the first. :|a

( Random thoughts-- huge huge huge spoilers abound SAM AND GRACE DO NOT READ THIS I'M NOT KIDDING )

(Anyone who guesses the title source gets a cookie~)

Anyways! We have returned from the magical land of CHICAGO, to much rejoicing. Would you like a report on all the fascinating goings-on that took place in Chicago? OF COURSE YOU WOULD. :D

So Chicago is an amazing place. Like for srs. Beautifully designed, full of cool things, and everyone we met, almost without exception-- every waiter, every salesperson-- was remarkably nicer than the majority of people here (NOT THAT I DON'T LOVE IT HERE). And the food, oh my god. THE FOOOOOOD.

THE COMPLETE TALLY:
--Sunday upon arrival we... didn't do much. :B Checked into the hotel, did some exploring, saw the American Girl store, etc. Went to dinner at a deep-dish pizza place that was ACE. And there was SO MUCH PIZZA I could seriously only eat one slice of it and I'm sure all of you know how much I can eat. Also our waiter was awesome. ERICA IMAGINE MICHAEL FROM NEXT FOOD NETWORK STAR AND THAT'S PRETTY MUCH WHAT HE WAS LIKE. That's how ~fabulous~ he was.

--Monday we visited the superduper mega-awesome John Hancock tower which had A+ views. And RANDOM POLL: do you think this building is fugly? Or awesome? Because my family is kind of divided on this issue.
ANYWAYS. Following that we went to a v. nice science and industry museum, and we saw all kinds of mineshafts and toy factories and reconstructed 1900s streets, it was great. I GOT SOME THINGS WHICH I WILL SHOW YOU ALL LATER. After which we took an architectural boat tour, and omg guys I am such a nerd but architecture is so fascinating. SO FASCINATING. And for dinner we went to a supar hip Asian place, and our waiter was a very cute supar-hipster. And then we saw the most GIANTASS FOUNTAIN EVERRRRR
LOOK AT THIS FOUNTAIN

--Tuesday we took a trolley tour-- there were a bunch of them stopping all over the place, so basically you could just get off wherever you wanted and another one would come by when you were done. BUT SO. The tourguide for the trolley we got on was a redheaded, kind of nerdy-looking guy with glasses and a Cubs cap, and as everyone was getting on he was stopping to say hi, asking where they were from, that kind of thing. (His name was John.) THIS WAS THE CONVERSATION WE HAD:
John: *notices my shirt* ...You a Flash fan?
Me: YES :D
John: Ah, but which one? Jay, Barry....
Me: I like Wally, personally.
John: Huh. *looks to family* I'm a comics nerd, can you tell?
Dad: Ah, but can you name all the Robins?
John: What, you mean all the good ones?

So yeah, basically we spent fifteen minutes before the tour started discussing comic books, it was awesome. <3 He was super duper nerdy and very opinionated-- like, imagine Mr. Muller about fifteen years younger and a liiiitle less weird. Also that day we went to the Sears Tower (obviously), the planetarium, and a wonderful wonderful contemporary art museum aaaaaah ART MUSEUMS <3

--Wednesday we went to the aquarium, which was fabulous, along with the Field natural history museum, also fabulous. And for dinner we went to Rick Bayless's restaurant, Frontera! =DD He wasn't in the kitchen, of course-- we didn't really expect him to be, considering he has another restaurant and is apparently taping a TV show for PBS, but his food was awesome in the membrane. We got some cheviches, which were delicious (if you have never tried a ceviche, omg they are delicious), and his black mole that he made for the finale? The one that has like thirty different ingredients and took him twenty years to perfect? Is exactly as good as it sounds.
ANYWAYS
OMG THEN

( Erica is maybe the only one who'll be excited about this; so Erica, you shall have to be excited enough for, like, six people. )

--Thursday we went to see a show of Aladdin (stage show, based on the Disney version) and omg guys I love Aladdin. I'm just... so endlessly charmed by him, in a lot of the same ways and maybe for a lot of the same reasons that I'm endlessly charmed by Danny. <3 Am I alone in this? Am I just a huge dork?
...Well, it was a very good production, in any case, and everyone was v. talented and good at singing. (ALADDIN WAS ADORABLE AAAAAAAH) After that we headed to the regular art museum, which I think has the largest collection of Renoirs in the world? Or one of them? OR SOMETHING IDK but I reaaaalllly love Renoir. <33 And this glorious exhibit on Japanese folding screens, oh goodness they were beautiful.

--Oh yeah, and the subway car we took to the airport Friday morning was full of Professor Layton 2 ads. (WHICH I JUST BOUGHT, BTW, ABOUT TWO HOURS AGO~ Have not started yet, but will give full report later.)

--ALSO ALSO
The Batman places I saw included:
~The bridge connecting Gotham to the Narrows in Begins
~The building the Joker's henchmen zipline through at the beginning of TDK
~The building used for both the bank and the police station in TDK
~Wayne Enterprises in Begins

And there you go! :D The condensed version of Chicago!

In other news, omg this
THIS
ahahaha omg I am laughing so hard I can't breathe, guys
It's funny, because the earlier parts seem pretty true to the spirit of the games-- and, well, I guess this does too, in terms of the HUGE MONUMENTAL FLAMING GAY EVERYWHERE, but still. WTF.
(Bonus fun fact: this here is the Takarazuka Revue, the Japanese all-female acting troupe on which Ouran's Zuka Club was based! :D)

Aaaand if I think of anything else, I can probably tell most of you tomorrow! Happy and sad, I guess. Later~

ETA: So Professor Layton 2 is pretty cool so far! Got some LAYTONANGST going down already!
Also, I'm planning to do a long rambly video game music post in the near future, so look out for that.

So! As some of you know, I was in NH for the weekend. And I've only JUST gotten time to post now, so here are some random blurbs about what's going on in my life! :D

--SO I SPENT ALMOST FIVE DAYS STRAIGHT WITH spinners_grove. :|b She came over on Wednesday morning (with brownies) to spend the day; we wound up playing METAL GEAR until, like, nine, so I asked her to sleep over, and THEN we played Metal Gear the next day until about 5:00 at night. Then she came back over Friday morning so we could get picked up to go to NH together (with krhenrick, Kaylee and Amy), and then we spent the weekend there and left Sunday night. And then she went to camp. D: Sadness.

--But New Hampshire was pretty cool! There was much boating and fun and PUPPIES aaaaah <33 And I went tubing with Grace, which was also... fun? I think? Fun and painful, yay. And Kaylee and I finally finally got to beat Okami together. (By which I mean Kaylee beat Okami and I watched-- actually, you should probably take as a general rule of thumb that when I say "X and I played Y game," and said game is not PW or Layton or something like that, that "X and I playing it" translates to me watching the cutscenes and sitting on the couch screaming KILL IT KILL IT KILL IT during battles.) It was so great. SO GREAT. I actually cried at the end. ;_; Kristen was mocking me. BUT IT IS A GREAT GAME AND YOU SHOULD PLAY IT. YEAH YOU.

--Monday chevy_the_geek and the_binksdance came over here to go swimming, yaaaaay <3 Fun was had by all-- Erica and I got to chat about MATH PUNS and Kathryn and I got to watch anime for waaay too long and randomly :D at all the voice actors we recognized.

--Tuesday we took Zoe to a dog park in Portsmouth with the Maraudercousins, and it would have been fun if it hadn't been SEVEN TRILLION DEGREES asld;kfjs;ldk

--Wednesday I spent INDOORS finally, doing chores and watching Funimation VA panels on Youtube (mostly Vic and Aaron and Travis AHHH I'M SUCH A DORK but I love them <3). And we saw Bandslam! Which was not that bad! Actually it was... kind of fun!

--Thursday we went to Canobie Lake with TOUS LES COUSINS and for some reason I have suddenly become the kind of person who gets nauseous on rides. DD: This has never happened to me before, but the last two times I went to Canobie Lake I went on two spinny-type rides and then had to go sit down for a while. Hopefully it's just the heat? I reallly do not want to be the kind of person who can't go on rides.

--Today was our last pool party with the cousins for the summer. Sad day. ;_; We were on something of a water balloon kick-- not actually throwing them, just making water balloons and adopting them as our children. We're strange people.

--Aaand Sunday morning we're leaving for Chicago! I actually didn't know this until recently but OKAY SURE. We get to eat at Rick Bayless's restaurant~ <3 Hannah and I referred to him fondly as Flanders for his entire Top Chef Masters run, because he was so dorky and chipper and :D all the time, it was adorable. Also if anyone knows any specific locations in Chicago where parts of The Dark Knight were filmed I would v much like to hear them. So I can visit them. Because I'm a huge dork.

I MAY BE EDITING THIS TOMORROW ONCE I GET TIME TO DO SOMETHING
SOMETHING SECRET
AND TOTALLY NOT WORTH ALL THIS CAPSLOCK
ETA: ( aaaaaaah <3 )

Guyssss, I think Waterfire might be the closest thing I've ever had to a spiritual experience (and probably the closest thing I will ever have, since I am a dirty dirty heathen). It's just... so spectacular and so serene and so almost primally beautiful that it kind of gets me somewhere deep. I... I think I liked it this time more than last year, too, mostly because last year I spent the whole time imagining I was Franziska (MY 2008 SUMMER, LET ME SHOW YOU IT). It's just... ARGH. I would really recommend it to everyone who has a chance, because srsly. Might be beating out Burlington, VT as my favorite summer city trip.

So yeah, that was my weekend. Most epic moment had to be the two teenagers busting out a rousing rendition of Guy Love in front of the Dunkin Donuts free samples cart, made about a kabillion times more epic by the Dunkin Donuts guy cracking up and singing along. Second-most epic was KINGSLEY SHACKLEBOLT THE NINJA OMELET CHEF at our hotel.

Anyways anyways! Guess what tiem it is?
(hint: it's meme tiem)

Whyyyyy am I so obsessed with Danny Phantom all of a sudden argh
KATHRYN
YOU'VE BEEN WATCHING THESE DANNY PHANTOM MARATHONS TOO RIGHT
WHY AM I SO OBSESSED

Damn, but this week has been crazy. :B Mainecousins came up here Tuesday night and left yesterday-- we went to Water Country and Salem Willows and marathoned the first three Harry Potters. (As a sidenote, PoA never gets old for me, you guys. <3 I can watch that movie over and over and OVER and it never stops being fun amazing. Th-the Shrieking Shack! And Remus being all fidgety when Snape comes in and BLAAAAAAAARGHCRAZY!Sirius and Cuarooon and the married-couple line and SO GREAT.) AND THEN the Maraudercousins came and hung around Friday and yesterday and today, and we slept in a tent and watched Wallace and Gromit and a good time was had by all. Except for Zoe the puppy is sick. D: She's doing better now, at least, but she has this weird bone disorder/growing pains kind of thing that means she can't stand *at all* and it's v. frightening but she seems to be on the mend, which is good.

So! Have a meme!

Rules:
-List your 20 favorite characters from you 20 favorite canons.
-Spot the patterns in other people's choices.
-Bonus points for drawing conclusions about the person's personality based on those choices.

1. Teen Titans - Jericho
2. Firefly - Wash
3. Comic!Batman - Babs Gordon/Oracle
4. Runaways - Gert
5. Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Oz
6. Phoenix Wright - Franziska overall and for JFA and T&T-- Gumshoe in PW1, aaaand Olga, Daryan and Klavier in AJ.
7. Fruits Basket - Haru
8. Dollhouse - Topher, though Victor is coming up very close.
9. X-Men - Well, I love Kurt half to death, but no one can beat the awesome metal-manipulating Jewish power of MAGNEEETOOOOOO
10. Ouran High School Host Club - Kyoya
11. Pirates of the Caribbean - Norrington, I guess?
12. Harry Potter - Remus
13. The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya - Itsuki, Tsuruya is a close second.
14. Havemercy - Balfour
15. Avatar: The Last Airbender - Toph and Azula are pretty much tied here.
16. Psych - BUZZ THE ADORABLE DETECTIVE (most minor recurring character in the history of history, YAY ME)
17. El Goonish Shive - Justin. No, Susan. No, Justin. Justin.
18. Chuck - Morgan, but Casey's close.
19. Rent - Mark
20. Stravaganza - LUCIEN, my very very first fictional crush. <33

So, yeah. TELL ME WHAT THIS SAYS ABOUT ME. :D
Also! (Man I am just FULL of fun things today!) I thought about doing this a while ago and never got around to it-- but since I was home by myself for several hours today, I thought it would be as good a time as any. So here is... a photo-tour of all my various geeky memorabilia. Memorabilias?

( Whatever, here they are! )

So there you go! Not sure if I like this new style, I might change it later. :|a ANYWAYS. Gonna go see who wins Food Network Star! Echo out!

So I had a dream last night that I went to this crazy-ass camp where FOR SOME REASON the only camp activity was to reenact Metal Gear Solid 2. :|a Except for I was the only one who'd ever even HEARD of MGS so everyone else was like WHAT
WHAT IS THIS
WHAT IS THIS NONSENSICAL STEALTH THING
And I was like OH BOY :DDD QUICK EVERYONE DO NAKED CARTWHEELS AND ACT GAY

...My dreams are strange. And I think they might be trying to tell me to actually play MGS.

Also, guess what was on AGAIN last night at 10:30? TEEN TITANS OH YEAH THAT'S RIGHT. It was The End pt. 1, and I totally cried, not even joking. (The-the penny! And everyone protecting her and the way Starfire just turns around and hugs Robin when Raven starts going all portaly SHUT UP IT WAS SAD. ;_;)

ETA: AS;LDKFJASDF;L HEY GUYS GUYS GUYS
REMEMBER A LITTLE WHILE AGO WHEN I POSTED THE BEST GIF EVER
WELL I TOTALLY LIED
THAT WASN'T THE BEST GIF EVER
( THIS IS )

Thought I'd steal ceiling_smiley's idea, as I so often do, and repost this for all the world to see.

( Spoilers here... but seriously, if you are worried about being spoiled about Half-Blood Prince you probably should have left the internet, like, four years ago )

I'm slowly realizing that I am kind of obsessed with dysfunctional, semi-evil families, WTF self. BAD ENOUGH that I am unhealthily obsessed with werewolves, why are all my fascinations so weird? The Blacks, the von Karmas, the Wilsons, and the OTORIS now, I've been writing so much for them it's crazy. Lots of Kyoya, of course, but also Fuyumi. :|a She's kind of just become really really interesting to me and argh nuanced family dynamics and argh I think way too much about things like this.

GUESS WHAT'S ON CN RIGHT NOW

TEEN TITANS

Deep Six, which is kind of lame, but still. Ouran @ 3 + TT @ 3:30 = best hour ever.

Hopefully this will cheer up the_binksdance, who did not have a good 4th. DD:

( PUPPY PICTURES )

4th of July was nice, if uneventful. Blah blah cousins, blah blah food, blah blah swimming, blah blah. SO GLAD we finally had a nice day though, Dad was near to fainting with joy.

(the_binksdance, chevy_the_geek, spinners_grove, ceiling_smiley, khoany... and anyone else I missed, go ask to join mhsgeekclub NAO. Nao nao. And find some userpics, because it needs some. Userpics, I mean.)

SO GUYS WE ARE GETTING A PUPPY THIS AFTERNOON

NAME SUGGESTIONS ARE V. WELCOME

(I am in full support of Harley but the rest of the family is not completely behind me on this. Also she is a female black lab mix if that is something you need to know.)

ETA: PUPPY GET
STILL NO NAME

( Sparing your flists like the kind person I am )

EDIT: ( Also, do you want to see the best gif ever? WELL HERE YOU GO )

Alright, four days into summer vacation and I finally finally have the time to do an actual major post. SO here are some newses and updates and incoherent ramblings!

Firstly, recent updates: my extraordinarily belated birthday party was... two? Three weekends ago? WHATEVER, it was pretty cool! :D We did an official Dr. Horrible singalong, with squirt bottles and silly string and laundry and twenty-six of my sister's ponies. Also, there was much discussion of obscure musicals, and epic rivalries, and Kathryn now officially has enough material to hold blackmail on me for the rest of my life, though that's what she gets for staying until midnight, I guess.

And stella_muse's party was the week after, which was ALSO okay, I GUESS. (Just kidding, Sam, it was wonderful and you are a wonderful host. <3 You gave me crackers!) We watched Teen Titans, met with waves of adoring nostalgia from Grace and I and amused confusion from everyone else; Furuba, which made me decide I really really really am not crazy about that dub; Nightmare Before Christmas; Dr. Horrible (plus commentary!); and the first episode of Buffy, which somehow wound up just being me and Abbey watching it, which was okay because it was the first time I actually got to watch Buffy with Abbey (and my GOD, how that show has changed). And then we stayed up until three and were almost crushed to death by falling Christmas bridges and arbitrarily decided which Firefly characters we were. And somewhere along the line was a rousing chorus of Mysterious Ticking Noise. Also, I am apparently one of those people who stays up too late and talks too much at sleepovers with large groups, which I did not know before. :|a I guess I'm just so used to "HAY LET'S PLAY TRACE MEMORY" "It's five in the morning." "Yeah, and?"

( Alright, time for big serious end-of-the-year retrospectiveing )

And hey, look at me, I have new icons! :D Of which this is only one!

(spinners_grove stop ignoring me or I am going to punch you in the face)

But I was actually just thinking about this earlier, so why not.

...FRANZISKA VON KARMA okay maybe not. XD Um, in no particular order:

--Remus~ Or... Shoebox!Remus, to be precise. Because of epic social awkwardness and grammar naziism. (Also, this is how I feel sometimes around people whose names SHALL NOT BE MENTIONED HERE-- like I am the only sane person within a three-mile radius but I'm not very good at doing anything about it.)

--Oz, particularly this school year. "I'm not really a computer person. Or a... work-of-any-kind person. See, the thing is, I test well. Which is good; except then it... usually leads to jobs." I like to think I'm pretty laid-back, in a way? I... don't let a whole lot seriously get to me. Which is sometimes good and is sometimes very very unfortunate.

--Maya! Because I love food and burgers and superhero shows aimed at 10-year-old boys~!

There will be an epic post coming next week when I'm done with school, but I thought I'd at least do some kind of post in the meantime. ALSO I AM CURIOUS, FLIST. WHAT ARE YOUR ANSWERS TO THIS QUESTION?

First off, because I promised I would post this for Sam and Kathryn and I don't want to forget (Grace you should watch these too~):

Mata Ashita, which is happy and fun and seriously gets to me in its bizarre Ouranish way-- it has a weird opening and closing, but just ignore that. Also, Doki Doki Waku Waku, which is not quite as great but still wonderful because as;ldkfja;kdfj HONEY SONG. HONEY. SONG.

And to everyone else, HAY THAR. :DD I did not, in fact, suffer a tragic accident, and I'm not dead, as my RL friends will be able to tell you-- there was just an incident... a few months ago, actually, wherein I got a B+ in history on my report card and I was sad and les parents were angry and I got my computer taken away for an unspecified amount of time and I just got it back last week. It's a mess, don't ask.

But! Here I am, and I can't even remember if anything of note has happened since my last post. Well, my birthday was April 19th, so that's come and gone, but I received more than a few lovely lovely things, such as ~FIREFLY ON DVD~ oh my god you guys I have the best sister ever. <3 And cruise! We went on a cruise to Key West and Grand Cayman over April break-- i.e. the day after my aforementioned birthday-- and it was pretty great. The food? Was epic. EPIC, I say. I think I have a sekkrit inner gourmet that's been trying to come out for a while now. XD And there was snorkeling that was lovely, and shows that were about a gajillion times better than they could have rightfully been expected to be, and there was ~ANDRIY~ our assistant waiter who was possibly one of the cutest people in the world. <333

More recently, Star Trek was superlatively enjoyable, and Ouran High School Host Club is still sending me into giggle fits, we'll see how long that lasts. :B Also, I need moar icons, and I should totally do a phototour of my geek memorabilia. ALRIGHT that's it for now, I think. More posts forthcoming!

Yet again, it's been a while. XD Time for another infodump on completely random unrelated topics!

First up is Dollhouse-- which, having seen three episodes, I now feel able to comment on like a pro.

( Fasten your seatbelts, it's a COMMENTARY~ Plus also SPOILERS~ )

Also also! In the second time of the history of this journal, I have made icons. Because I was sitting around, doing nothing, thinking about how awesome certain things are, and then I was all I THINK I'LL MAKE SOME ICONS which, wtf brain, okay. So these were mostly for fun, but I thought I'd post them anyways-- if you want some, um, credit me, I guess? XD Also, if you have mad icon skillz (which I obviously do not) and you want to take one and use it as a base and pretty it up, that would also be totally fine.

( BAM, icons )

And thirdly, have a meme~ Comment here and I will give you five things that I associate with you, and then you will post them in your journal and elaborate upon them.

From revengeofthezio: ( GSRP, Dr. Horrible, Chuck, Firefly, Batman, and the Phoenix Wright series-- which I just realized was six things, OH WELL :Dd )

Here, have one last reminder about this. You have a day left to send me love and hate and randomness~

Also, Dollhouse in... fourteen and a half hours, FTW~ \o/

Longer post probably coming later when I'm NOT trying to get ready for school.
