I'm still sick, fever and headaches and nosebleeds and everything. It takes me hours to write coherently so I've stayed away from instant messaging and I've bullshitted important assignments and tests. It wouldn't be a big deal if I wasn't leaving for Boston on Thursday night. Laurence will have to deal with me until Saturday night, and honestly I wouldn't wish that on anyone right now. I'm very zombie-like. A very enthusiastic zombie, but a zombie nonetheless.
On the topic of zombies: I just finished reading Night of the Living Trekkies and it was hilarious. Seriously guys, pick it up.
And the door to the landing stood open - blocked by a legless, limbless, well-chewed torso. Wearing a Wesley Crusher sweater.
Gary groaned quietly. "Not now, Wesley."
I also finished three seasons of Heroes and now I'm about to start (or rather, catch up on) the fourth one. Very excited about rewatching 'The Wall', haha. I'm making Heroes/Star Trek crossover comics next week, after Boston and after my midterms. I've got ten of them planned; we'll see how that goes. Then after Florida (so, in November) I'll really get to work on fanfiction (I've got three or four Pinto fics in mind, uh) and a Star Trek flash animation. And of course
amerasu1013's "secret Pinto project" (ok bb, I know it's not secret, but it's more exciting to pretend it is!) which should keep me busy for a while. Multidisciplinary work.
[Shameless promotion:
AMERASU1013 WROTE THE BESTEST MIRROR!VERSE PINTO KNOWN TO MANKIND AND IF YOU HAVEN'T READ IT YOU SHOULD DO THAT RIGHT ABOUT NOW. THANK YOU.]
I also want to draw Sylar/Zombie for my five-minutes Anime North & future roadtrip buddy Adam, and teaparty!Pinto for my MA Beans.
Oh, and guess what? I'M GOING TO SEE ANGELS IN AMERICA AGAIN IN FEBRUARY. The really lame thing is that [a] I'll spend the same amount of time on the MTL-NYC bus than in the city (16 hours total, I think?), and [b] I had to borrow money to buy a ticket before they were all gone. But the point is still - NYC! AGAIN! YAY! and this time I have professional pocket-sized audio recording material. Oh, and I'm front row. No big deal. (Jk. Huge deal tbh.)
As for the AiA commentary I was forced to put on hiatus (due to me being dead/undead for the time being), I have two acts left (out of what, nine?) so I'm pretty sure I'll get to post it sometime soon. By then it won't matter because everyone an they moms will have watched the tv series, read the script and seen the play, but hey. I kind of like describing Part 2, Act 1, Scene 6. I think that's the one? See, I might be sick but my memory doesn't suck.
Except for the part where it totally does! Yesterday Chantal (classmate; 41, blonde, giggles way too loud, really sweet) told me she remembered how she became aware of my existence last year and that it was probably why everyone in Translation knew my name. I joked about blocking it out of my mind on purpose because it was super dumb but uh, seriously, I forgot that whole thing happened. It feels surreal now to think that anything prior to my trip to Boston last Spring actually happened. I don't remember most of it. Which is probably best for everyone. Especially Ma Ai, who'd probably throw a party if I told her so. (I should. She and her boyfriend bought a condo - a fucking CONDO - and they have a pool in the building and I want to be invited over.)
I got a 58% in Terminology (what do you mean, it's an encyclopedia and not a dictionary? there's "dictionary" written on the cover!) but a 28/30 in Translation Software and a A- in Advanced Translation. I'm very, very zen right now.
I want to build a little shrine in my basement dedicated to Chris Pine's leather pants. Just sayin'.
