Just giving everyone who read the first chapter of my Thor WIP a heads-up:

As of about five minutes ago, we now have our official first chapter illustration! And it is so, so pretty ♥

It's been embedded in the chapter text if you wanna go take a look back and check it out. Just scroll down, you'll see it ( Read more... )

Finally saw Inception the other day.
Dr. Just-Friends came into town for an afternoon/evening so after I got off of work we met up with machi_neko and caught a late show and then had dinner at Applebees.

I though it was a very enjoyable, visually stimulating, action packed and just plain awesome movie. Kind of thinky, but not in the way that makes you feel ( Read more... )

Just got back from seeing How to Train Your Dragon.

There really is nothing I can say except...YES. If you wanted to see this movie, go see it. If you were on the fence about seeing this movie? Get off the fence, and go see it.

It was everything I hoped it would be, everything I wanted it to be, and yes, even a little bit more. It just hit all ( Read more... )

Two tickets to see 30 Seconds to Mars live in concert through Ticketmaster: 67 dollars ( Read more... )

Saw The Princess and the Frog tonight with a huuuge group of people. machi_neko made a Facebook event for it, and at least two more people showed up (including a friend we literally haven't seen in years since she moved to LA) - all told, we filled up an entire theater row, and still one of us had to sit in the row beneath the main group. Considering the ( Read more... )

Oh, that's just effin' great, that is. Yesterday I was ridiculously tired to the point of emotional meltdowns over nothings (shortish explanation: fucked up my sleep schedule by staying up until 6AM two days in a row, then having to get up early for work, equals eight hours on my feet on less than three hours of sleep) so needless to say, it was ( Read more... )

Oh shit.

So, apparantly Michael Jackson has had a cardiac arrest and is either in a coma or dead.

I'm not a fan of his either way, never have been, but still. That is some...staggering news.
And to think, I wouldn't even have heard about it, if not for machi_neko calling and asking me if I knew what was going on ( Read more... )

Thursday and Friday went just grand.

A few hours after my last post, machi_neko and I walked up to campus to catch the #7 (thanks, ravin_raven!) through downtown to German Village. We made it there successfully (with a little help figuring out which stop to get off at), at which point I believe I led us in the precisely wrong direction we wanted to go. But oh well, ( Read more... )

Today is my birthday, nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh ( Read more... )

Senior Crawl '09: me making friends with strangers for about five hours straight, plus excessive amounts of alcohol.

I started up at Dick's Den at a little bit before 9:00, and ended up all the way down at McFadden's Pub by a little bit after two. Obviously, I didn't stop in every bar - I skipped a lot of the side quests streets and stuck mainly ( Read more... )
