You didn't come into this life just to sit around on a dugout bench, did ya?*
Tomorrow's the start of the ski trip. We need to be at the meet-up place at 2:15 pm for a 3 pm departure. We'll be in Rissoul at around 9:30 or 10 am the next day. Oy.
I've spent the day freaking out. \o/
In other news - meaning the "Sickle completely ignores real life" section - I think the character Kelly Leak of The Bad News Bears (trilogy) is now pretty much now a favorite character of mine. Yeah, that's right, I have a favorite something. Shock!
The movies themselves are pretty fun (and on YouTube - Bad News Bears (1976), BNB in Breaking Training (1977) - so go! Or see this post of mine for specific squee.), but I spend most of the time focusing on Kelly and going, "How are you so awesome?" or, often simultaneously, "You're adorable!" Seriously, there's so many times I've wished the movies had deviated from the baseball story to follow Kelly's, or give us some backstory, because he's freakin' interesting.
Basically, if I were some thirteen years younger, I'd have the maddest crush on Kelly. As it is, I just find him bloody adorable, awesome and fascinating.
(He hustles pool!)
...ahem.
Go. Watch. Squee.
Meme - 30 Days - Day 20 → A hobby of yours Currently? Oh dear...
These days I spend my free time - which is all my time - doing the following:
Freaking out!:
- Freaking out over everything!
- Packing!
- Repacking!
- Crying!
Failing!
- Lying around in bed!
- Daydreaming!
- Doing mindless things for hours on end!
- Attending zumba lessons!
- Coming up with ideas for stories but failing to write anything at all!
Watching Shit!:
- Watching movies!
- Watching TV shows!
- Watching anything Jackie Earle Haley has ever been in that I can get my mitts on!
- Watching all of the Nightmare on Elm Street movies!
- Snarking loudly at whatever I am watching!
Although in more general terms, my hobbies are writing, reading, watching film and television, knitting, running, wandering the interwebs and so forth.
