I think that new LJ Talk thing has managed to find that thin line between "convenient" and "creepy". On the one hand, there's your whole LJ friendslist in one easy place. On the other hand, fucking creepy, especially that mapping thing it can do on phone calls. I think I'll stick to AIM. Which you should IM me on. I'm chasezed jc, have been for eternity. You have to leave me your name though, cause I'm on privacy.
"They don't write songs about the ones that come easy."
That's my default away message lately. And in the last 48 hours I have gotten three inquiries about it so looks like Lucy's got some 'splaining to do.
The quote's familiar to anyone who watches "Veronica Mars". Logan (Jason Dohring) says it to Veronica (
krbell) at the "prom" that Logan throws because he and his cronies managed to get the regular one cancelled. Logan is drunk off his ass and talking to Veronica and he's clearly still in love with her, always has been, even though she dumped him last year. So he's got this whole big speech about how they are EPIC, spanning countries and continents and wars. And Veronica is like, you are crazy, love should not be that much work, and Logan says . . "They don't write songs about the ones that come easy."
And then he tries to kiss her and she runs away but she comes back the next morning except he doesn't remember a damn thing and he has a naked girl in his room. Oops.
Really, the
actual clip is much better.
But there is HOPE. Everyone says I sound horribly emo and depressing in it, but Logan is talking about a great love, one worth fighting for, one to write songs about. Cause really, aren't most of the greatest songs ever about love gone wrong or love that's hard? And it's not emo, it's hopeful, cause I'm holding out for one to write songs about.
Or something.
Now stop analyzing my away message.
