Happy Birthday Emily!
To my lj friends: sorry I'm posting something after so long, only to bring you something that is probably relevant to exactly zero of your interests! (Like, seriously. Please don't judge me for this.) If I haven't mentioned it before (I think I have?) I'm on tumblr nearly all the time these days. It's ifitgivesyoujoy, if you want to come to say ( Read more... ) -
WIP: Velma is a BAMF, and I don't understand my own obsession with zombies.
I assume everybody's seen the fanart of Velma and Scooby and the Mystery Machine in the aftermath of a zombie apocalypse. If you haven't, it's right here. Well, sometime over the summer I got to thinking about it, and I started just kind of drabbling about how it could have happened. I didn't get very far, and the project is pretty much on hold ( Read more... ) -
~seeing my name in black and white, feels like I'm doing something right~
If you have that song stuck in your head now because of me, I sincerely apologize, but I couldn't think of anything more appropriate to my situation right now. Feel free to curse me mentally as you bounce around your bedroom to Legally Blonde: The Musical ( Read more... ) -
HOMEWORK WHAT'S HOMEWORK SOUNDS LAME
We interrupt your afternoon to bring you DUMB THINGS ABBEY HAD BEEN DOING ON THE INTERNET, AND HOW YOU CAN TOO!
Last night I decided to snoop around zarla's journal for a bit, and I found an entry she made featuring these two websites. The first takes 2-5 names you give it and randomly generates a relationship map based on - I think - the spelling of ( Read more... ) -
Life Update: "No, I prefer to be unsociable and taciturn. Makes it all so much more enjoyable."
Today, I was more charming and chatty than I think I have ever been in my life. People here are so friendly - you don't even have to try, you just have to sit alone somewhere and look nice enough, and somebody will come over and introduce themselves. It's been fun, and I've met some really cool people, but it's also felt kind of weirdly ( Read more... ) -
NPR's list of Top 100 Sci Fi/Fantasy
Other people are meme-ing this list, so I thought I would, too! But I'm changing the meme to reflect my special (read: incredibly lazy) relationship with reading books. The ones I've read are striked, the ones I own/am in the middle of/really mean to read evenutallly are in bold, and the ones I know I want to read but haven't tracked down yet are ( Read more... ) -
home is behind, the world ahead, and there are many paths to tread...
I am not a city person. I learned this two days ago.
It baffles me that I couldn't have figured out where I preferred to be before now, but I guess I just never really thought about it. All I know is that I went on vacation with my family, and I spent the majority of two weeks wandering around big international cities and seeing beautiful ( Read more... ) -
IT'S TIME FOR AN ANOTHER EXCITING INSTALLMENT OF FANFICTION
Guess who wrote her first Lord of the RIngs fic? I did! Aren't you proud of me, flist? I KNEW YOU WOULD BE.
A warning: since I have not read very much of the books at all yet (I'm working on it!), this probably steps on the toes of everything that is canon. Also, it takes place in the alternate universe where at the end Frodo never leaves ( Read more... ) -
Things That Are Problems In My Life Right Now
In no particular order. This is all fandom-related, and it'll jump around a lot - you might even be interested in some of it.
1. Katelyn Tarver. Ever since I downloaded her EP and became obsessed with Favorite Girl and Better (which apparently doesn't exist on the internet beyond iTunes), I've been referring to her as my Imaginary Girlfriend ( Read more... ) -
I promise my next entry will have puppies and rainbows and lots of slash. This entry, however...
I had the most vaguely terrifying dream last night, all centered around the phrase "Black Balloon." Seriously, it was so creepy, and you probably don't want to hear any of this but I feel like I have to tell it anyways because it won't leave my brain.
( You've been warned. )
