OMG I just correctly identified a random piece of Star Wars art, sent to me by my friend/co-worker, as being by Frank Quitely. YOU GUYS. I AM USUALLY SO BAD AT ART. ("A piece of art made me have an emotional response! Is that normal?") I FEEL WAY TOO ACCOMPLISHED RIGHT NOW. \o/ \o/ \o \o/ \o/ (Granted, Quitely has a pretty distinct style, including ( Read more... )

I've been getting a lot of Google Alerts about the just-announced impending end of Flashpoint, but this is my favorite so far:

Enrico Colantoni Says Goodbye To Flashpoint

The whole thing is adorable, but there's this in particular:

HI DO YOU KNOW WHAT IS AWESOME? I won gwyn_r's offering in our little local holiday gift exchange and she promised me a "wee ickle vidlet," and knowing that Gwyn is both a Flashpoint fan and a brilliant vidder, I of course jumped at the chance to ask her to make my heart's desire since the day after the pilot aired: a Flashpoint vid to the Headstones' " ( Read more... )

I am totally writing my article right now. The one I have to have finished by the end of the day. What? I am TOTALLY WRITING IT. (Actually, I'm almost done. Now I just have to come up with some craptastic cheesefest of an intro/conclusion--the punnier the better--for that is how my boss rolls.

So I FINALLY had the chance to watch the "leaked" four episodes of Flashpoint this weekend (I was waiting for troyswann! Okay, not really, I was waiting to finish my DSSS because Hugh is REALLY DISTRACTING, though the recent bout of Flu on my f-list made my attempts at virtue sort of in vain--is there a lesson there? But Sal was here and I'm glad I waited ( Read more... )

My friend J has departed, and I am filled with woe. I've been extraordinarily lucky in the people I've met in my life, and I'm extremely lucky to have so many amazing people right here within hanging-out distance, AND I'm extremely lucky that people are willing to come visit, but it's still so frustrating, having these little bits and pieces of ( Read more... )
