More randomness with asterisks

* The more I think about it, the sadder I get about Gilmore.  I was kind of meloncholy all day today. Not depressed or anything; the finale didn't ruin my life outlook or make me suicidal, but I found myself replaying the Luke/Lorelai scene over and over in my head today.  It all comes back to "But I LOVE you, Luke! I LOVE you!" It's been on repeat ( Read more... )

work, blah, gilmore girls, people are particularly stupid today, american idol

I hear you on Gilmore. I just get more and more melancholy about it the more I think about it. But then I also get more and more ideas for fic to try and fix it, so that's something I guess. I have sworn off spoilers, but I know as soon as it hits late July and spoilers start coming out, I will be there reading them. I was so glad I knew the spoilers for the finale, otherwise I would still be in utter panic mode right now. But I'm so afraid to read spoilers for S7 only to discover things won't be fixed the way I want them to. That would just be horrifying.

Congrats on your last day at Job #2. And best wishes on your upcoming job interviews! I hope it all works out the way you want.

Oh, and I may have to check out this Pete Yorn. I'm always looking for new music recommendations. Do you listen to the Dresden Dolls at all? They are my most recent discovery, and my new favorite group. I cannot stop listening.

I think it will be fixed. Probably not right away, but I am still certain they will be together in the end. (Of course, I am still holding on to my belief that Lorelai and Chris didn't actually sleep together. I know, I am dumb.)

Pete Yorn is amazing. You will probably recognize some of the song--I did. I suggest starting with Musicforthemorningafter. SO GOOD!

And yes, I LOVE the Dresdan Dolls! I got their album about a year ago. Wow--you are the first person I've talked to who actually knows who they are. Most people have never heard of them. Dude, Girl Anachronism? Coin Operated Boy? Totally awesome.

Well, I credit my love of the Dresden Dolls to _lashingoutloud. She talks of them constantly in her LJ and uses many of their lyrics as the titles to her posts. So I decided to check them out. Little did I know they would become an obsession. Literally, I am obsessed.

Coin Operated Boy? Girl Anachronism? Pure genius. Pure. Genius. I am in love. But wait...do you know that they have a new cd? It's called "Yes, Virginia..." And I love it a hundred times more than I love their self-titled album, which is saying something. So if you don't have, go out and get it now. I love pretty much every single song on there, but Delilah has to be my favorite. It simply blows me away.

Avery over at BWR has a post-finale story about what really happened with Chris. (Its not what you think.)

I got notification for this last night, but it was late and I needed to sleep. I plan on checking it out when I get home this evening.

No, totally. I felt weirdly emotional and kind of high-strung yesterday, and then I listened to Sam Phillips's "Taking Pictures" and "How to Dream" a million times, which didn't help.

(Thanks, sillyzilly2k)

Anytime, m'dear.

I had my last day at Job #2 today! Wooohoooo!

Yay! You're free! Freeeeeee! Good luck with your interviews on Friday.

Oh my god. Are you sure you're not me? I totally did the same thing yesterday! Oh my god, Taking Pictures breaks my heart. Sam Phillips has such a gut-wrenching voice. It's beautiful, but so sad, you know? Also, I was ticked to discover "How to Dream" is one of the lala themes on the show. I don't know why, it just really amused me.

Yep. I had "Taking Pictures" on loop last night. Apparently, I like to torture myself. And considering I'd never heard the song until I heard it was going to be on the finale, it will always be associated with the L's for me. And I will cry every single time I hear it.
