So I had a post to make about ... real life updates and navel-gazing and things? But this is not that post! This post is about how I am HAPPY because [a] this weekend is MUSKRAT JAMBOREE, which means I'll be hanging hopefully around the hotel and trying to have fanpeople meetups, and [b] I ... have watched the first episode and a half of Vikings?

Woke up to a tweet from Polaris that said Look, I found the perfect Valentine for you and linked me to a tumblr post with the following text ( Read more... )

Hi, internet! The apartment of Gondor is spending the evening watching Mythbusters, and the combination of my delightful bizarre fannish feelings about this show + wine + an episode about superhero myths = us trying to figure out what the cast's superpowers would be ( Read more... )

Wow, so I just had the sort of hilarious detailed dream I often have just before waking up. In it ... well, first there was a bit about seals in a swimming pool, but I don't remember that part very well. What I do remember is dreaming that I'd been sent a link alerting me that someone had reposted Shatter without asking me. Said someone had an LJ ( Read more... )

So the other day, Amiel posited to me that, if there's one thing Loki and all the Avengers can actually agree on, it's that Lady Gaga is awesome. HAHA YES OBVIOUSLY, I said in great delight, and we left it at that, until last night when Amiel sent me possibly the greatest ever series of text messages:

Amiel: Re: the Lady Gaga headcanon I said ( Read more... )

Last night, after Polaris' and my second Avengers viewing, we held a small impromptu fanpeople party that over the course of the evening whittled itself down to me, Polaris, paper-tzipporah, and an impressive amount of wine. ( And then we had an absurd discussion about the characters from Community hanging out with the characters from Avengers; afaik there are no ( Read more... )

Today has been kind of hideous, but I bought lots of tea, and watched a fairly glorious stretch of Babylon 5 with K, and have been successfully channeling my Avengers feelings. Guys, I have SO MANY Avengers feelings and I can't even see the movie until Saturday. But I am channeling them! I am flailing lots on tumblr, because that's what tumblr's ( Read more... )

Re: this tumblr thread on how Valentine's Day was originally "a pagan festival involving werewolves, blood, and fucking" and how this means it is probably well celebrated by watching Bram Stoker's Dracula:

aria: oh man though Gary Oldman's Dracula face
filiabelialis: YES
aria: ...I know people have apparently written the Sherlock werewolf AUs but ( Read more... )

CRYING LAUGHING.

( Under the cut is the excerpt of an entry I wrote in May 2006, dithering over whether to watch Supernatural. Seriously. Supernatural, 2006. )

Anyway that is all quite silly, and since I should perhaps continue as I began, I'm going to talk about another ridiculous TV show! This one is Eternal Law, which I suspect was created ( Read more... )

While I was in the shower this morning, the plumbing made a sudden alarming gurgling noise. I turned off the water, listened for a puzzled moment, and then shrugged and turned the shower back on, with the vague expectation that the water was going to turn into blood and murder the fuck out of me. Obviously it did not, and I am not a horrifying ( Read more... )
