this is just to say:
1. LAST NIGHT THERE WAS A DUDE NAMED EAMES ON WHITE COLLAR. REALITY IS STILL A LITTLE HARD TO SORT OUT.
2. There will be much, much Steve/Danny fic tonight, I am finishing it up right now, IT IS COMING, YOU GUYS, IT IS COMING.
3. Apparently a member of my family signed me up for JDate? Which is deeply hilarious on a lot of levels, but especially when you consider that I spent today flirting with a guy who had, you know, visibly just celebrated Ash Wednesday. My money is on my aunt being the culprit, but only time will tell. I WILL SOLVE THIS MYSTERY IF IT KILLS ME.
4. Speaking of things that kill me, miznarrator made A FIFTY FUCKING SONG MIX OF AMAZING WOMEN ROCKING IT THE FUCK OUT. Seriously, just amazing, you guys, SO MUCH BRILLIANT MUSIC, check it out post-haste.
5. And finally, on the topic of awesome women who rock, a conversation that proves my little brother the rabid Beatles fan is the coolest eleven year old in the history of eleven year olds:
The Beatles' song "Get Back": *plays on the radio*
Burrito: Wasn't this song about George and Paul and Ringo being mad at Yoko Ono? That's why John's not singing in it, right?
Me: That's the story, anyway. It can be hard to know what's true with that kind of thing.
Burrito: But everyone blamed her for breaking up the Beatles, right?
Me: A lot of people did that, yeah.
Burrito: But she didn't...she didn't really do anything to them, did she? She just fell in love with John and he fell in love with her, and then people started hating her? And singing angry songs at her and stuff. I think that would suck.
Me: I think it probably did suck, little dude. I think it probably still sucks. But Yoko's a pretty awesome lady--she's a musician too, did you know that? And she does all kinds of stuff for charity, and even though she had some awful things happen to her--
Burrito: Like John dying, right?
Me: Yeah, like John dying. But you know, even though that happened, and even though there are still people that hate her, she donates time and money to help people, and to speak up for people who can't speak for themselves. I think that's pretty cool, you know?
Burrito: ...can we turn this song off? I don't really want to listen to it anymore.
Me: Yup.
Burrito: I think hating Yoko Ono for something she didn't do is really stupid.
Me: I think you're the smartest eleven year old ever.
Burrito: Well, I try.
