Let's try this again ...
I've been around LJ for quite a while now, and I've been active in fits and spurts. It's always been my go- to home for fandom, and I've been all over the fucking map with that, to be honest! But more importantly, LJ has been the one form of social media that has always felt like the right fit for me. In fact, I never really thought of LJ as " ( Read more... ) -
Gotta love a GREAT movie!
I've owned this movie on Bluray for a while, but never watched it. Luckily, I caught Hanna on a movie channel this morning and damn! I could've watched it 3 or 4 times by now if only I'd paid more attention to the many online stellar reviews ( Read more... ) -
I should have seen this coming ...
The timing of my becoming newly obsessed with American Idol is certainly right, with the Top 3 happening this week. However, my biggest crush is actually season 7 winner, David Cook. I didn't even watch a single episode that season, yet I jumped in with both feet for season 8 ... still not actually sure why (though s8 was a kickass season ( Read more... ) -

I'm trying to ignore the more disturbing implications of my current mad obsession with a man who has been gone for ten years to focus on the positives this fixation has brought to the surface ... wonderful things that I didn't realize I'd been missing in my life:
1. Rockabilly!!!
The music I grew up on, that my Dad has always loved over every other ( Read more... ) -

I'm fairly certain no one in my immediate family has ever doubted my obviously obsessive tendencies, but I've reached the point where casual acquaintances are noticing that I seem unable to talk about anything but George Harrison, or the Beatles in general ( Read more... ) -
It's 2011, must be Beatles obsession time
I've gone through several different periods in my life where I've been completely obsessed with The Beatles, and then for whatever reason, have turned away from both the men and their music for periods of years. I can blame one self-imposed drought on a bad breakup with the guitarist in a Beatles tribute band, but that was a long time ago.

Trying to stop on top of things and stop letting the good stuff pass me by:
Happy early birthday, Delaney!

I had lofty ambitions of doing this on a "fairly regular basis" at the beginning of the year. Does monthly count? That's SO not what I had in mind, but I guess it's better than I was doing ( Read more... )
