B5 and food and work and I might type too much
I'm going to get my slow cooker going for the first time after lunch. I am looking forward to seeing how the dish turns out, but I'm not worried. I love cooking, but it might be nice to be sitting working (at work, no less) while my food cooks itself. It's an oddly amusing thought.
I am slightly excited about today. I have been trying to get more people hooked on Babylon 5 since, well, forever. Two days ago, Adstring's Mayuri player came onto AIM. This was awesome in itself, school and work has been eating her time. Then she said she was thinking of apping Bester from B5. Yesterday, one of the best applications I've seen was waiting in the queue - Bester. It's so awesome, not just because Londo has a canonmate. It's because I love B5 characters. Even the one guy who really is pure evil is intriguing, Mr. Morden. They're all fantastic. Well, correction. All of the ones that have enough info to be playable are. I really did not like Ulkesh, ever. But there are such deep minor characters too. Neroon comes to mind first. He showed up in what, four episodes? And yet was so powerful and moving. Number Two was great. Zathros was hilarious. I simply love seeing the characters. Except Ulkesh.
Tisha and I might still get to hang out tomorrow. I'm hoping. I'm waiting on confirmation. It would be a shame if that falls through too... that would make two RP friends who were down here for Disney that just couldn't find time.
You know, while I'm being random, I might as well link to an RP thread that's still going and I'm still having fun with. My Gojyo now has Kat's Goku convinced that Son Goku means "stupid to the highest extent" and that he should change his name to Mono Tonto. WARNING for language. It is Gojyo, after all. Poor Monkey.
People being wordy for the sake of being wordy and not precision are getting a little tiresome. I'm doing research for my next article, this one assigned, and all of the sources go out of their way to throw more words in. "Look! I have a dictionary and thesaurus! Whee!" No. Bad writer. Go away. No cookie for you. To be certain, precision in diction is desirable. But you need not add, toss in, throw into the mix, and elaborate with options that are redundant and repetitive and say what you've said already. ;)
I finally got around to starting and using my original writing filter. It's still opt-in for anyone. I don't want to spam people with it, and I don't want it public, so it's going there.
Hm. I wonder if I write too much. Oh well. Have an icon with one of my favorite B5 quotes. Ivanova is win.
