"If it's illegal to rock and roll, throw my ass in jail!" ~Kurt Cobain
G'morning. :)
= The Rock is back! I have no idea. All I know is that I have severe adoration for all things Dwayne Johnson. I never even watched him perform as The Rock back in the day. My knowledge of WWF/WWE wrestling rests in Saturday afternoons as a teenager watching Rowdy Roddy Piper and the Undertaker be REALLY FUCKING AWESOME. But I grew out of it, and then there was a whole new batch of wrestlers that I didn't care much about. But Dwayne is a special breed, because he's really charming and really well-spoken and I will always appreciate people who go back to the thing that made them famous, even if they've moved on to bigger and better things (in the eyes of the media). Much like my love for Nathan Fillion exploded exponentially when he went back to One Life To Live to honor a past mentor, and has spoken with nothing but extreme praise for his time as a soap actor. Some celebs just have a way of making me feel fuzzy.
= Someday, I hope to come up with a Tumblr half as genius as: http://whoisarcadefire.tumblr.com/ Seriously, people? Grow your musical brain a little, and find new and glorious music that isn't being stuffed down your throat every hour on top 40 radio.
= Tomorrow I have to go to court for an eviction. SUCKKKKS. Mostly because that means I have to wear nice clothes, which I just abhor.
= I would like to hang out with Drunk!JimAndPam. Just putting that out there in the universe.
[edited to remove the stuff about work, I forgot this wasn't a locked post]
= Here's Boo, the sweetest cat I've ever met, who pretty much stays in this position all day long. She doesn't like me to work on anything but scratching her behind the ear.
= Woe, woe is me. Would that this hoodie were a tiiiiime hoodie!
= Do you ever want to reply to someone's LJ entry but then stop yourself because you realize you're not really that close with them and you don't want to cross a weird kind of line that probably only exists in your head? Sometimes I do that, and it's silly, but it happens.
I also can't decide if I'm jealous of people with new, fun fandoms to squee about or not. Because while I certainly miss being so excited over something shiny and new, part of me instantly fast forwards to the time when I know I'll be disappointed in some way with it. I don't know when I turned into this pessimistic person, but maybe I just got burned with one too many fandoms (8 months, my ass). I still enjoy the things I like to enjoy, but I do it from a safe distance, certainly not getting involved on a personal level. I join communities, but only to read, rarely to participate. I like my safe place here, with the people I know and love (y'all!) and if we happen to have new things in common, awesome. If not, well, that's okay too.
= That all being said, the closest I've come to joining any other fandom is Big Brother, and that's because it's MY CRACKIEST CRACK OF ALL THE CRACK, and because of my unholy love for Jeff and Jordan (BB11). They're still happily together, spending this past weekend in North Carolina for Valentine's Day. They're a real life 'ship that actually makes me disgustingly happy, so if they break up, I don't even want to think of how I'll react. It won't be pretty, that's for sure.
On that note, I need to go order some lunch because I'm working through it today. Pooh.
