okay, so. I can't even... What?
I am a little scattered, and this is not helping. The setting is irrelevant, but I will tell you anyway.
So, I was finally watching last Wednesday's The Sing-Off(Am I the only one who believes the judges are talking amongst themselves, all, "Okay, we just have to keep putting Jerry Lawson and Talk of the Town through, so we don't look like ( Read more... ) -

Things I am not allowed to do until I finish Yuletide:
* watch TV (especially you, Mythbusters)
* read fic (who's got two thumbs and picked the worst time ever to get sucked back into reading Inception fic?)
* go to work

There are about 100 things I have not posted or written in the past few weeks. So here, have ( this picture of Kris Allen and Michael Esper backstage at American Idiot ) -
Happy Thanksgiving! (or Happy Thursday, vast majority of the planet!)
FOLGERS HOLIDAY COMMERCIALS, NEVER LEAVE ME! (also, I continue to be slightly teary-eyed at Coca-cola commercials. Don't judge.)

Okay, children of the 80s, help me out here.

I just went to the Hulu.com homepage, and discovered that He-Man and ( Read more... ) -
Dear self:
Next year, remember that you wanted to nominate Kicking and Screaming. Noah Baumbach is even sort-of-famous now, so maybe someone will have heard of it and be excited, instead of mistakenly wondering why I want fic for that kids' soccer movie with Will Ferrell. -

Things I realized (at least partly) because of Yuletide this year.
Thing one:
I really hate the couch in the basement.
I happened to be awake when Yuletide signups went live, around 5am this morning. I wasn't really staying up on purpose for Yuletide, but it was a contributing factor. I had given up on watching Mythbusters and curled up on the wholly inadequate couch downstairs (seriously, that couch is so, ( Read more... )
