I keep wondering why I'm not getting any LJ comments and then I remember that I haven't posted in almost a week. So now I will post after midnight on a Saturday and no one will notice.
thistle90 I watched a movie called Outing Riley, which is nothing special except that it is perfectly full of Chicago-ness and has Nathan Fillion in it. As a heterosexual, sadly because it was a gay movie and I was hoping, but still! Nathan Fillion in a fun Chicago-set gay indie movie? Fail, fandom.
Holy cow, Oda landed a 3-axel 3-toe 3-loop combo? That is fucking impressive. I am torn between hoping he keeps that up because it would be awesome to witness in a competition that is, you know, televised, and hoping he burns out and goes nuts because he is one of my least favorite top skaters.
Meanwhile, Michal Brezina came in second, beating Tomas Verner? Hello, my fandom, it is time to start fangirling Brezina and his floppy hair.
And Alissa! Alissa Czisny landed all of her jumps! I mean, only sort of, but she beat some skaters who are much higher ranked than her, so the win must feel nice.
As a result of this, I am now referring to all North American male ice dancers or pairs skaters I can't tell apart as Thang II.
Things that are still awesome: Ben Agosto doing his Elvis impression. (
thistle90 and I discussed how lately Tanithandben seem to have been dissuaded from being silly, and this is ruining everything.) Fallen Angels. Johnny trying to say "bitch" on NBC. Shawn Sawyer's backflip. Johnny, age 16, skating to 'NSync. Illusion Mesh Fabric (When is the next episode of Johnny TV, Icenetwork?) Having all this stuff on my external hard drive for when I need it.
There is no Pats game tomorrow. What am I going to do with myself? I wish the answer didn't involve sixteenth-century epic poetry.
