Current Obsessions ♥ ,,,January Edition

So in my LJ Bio I wrote something similar to this and I kept updating it here and there as things changed.  Then I thought, why don't I just make this a bi-weekly or monthly posting...or however often I feel re-inspired by someone/something new!?  That way I don't have to erase the old stuff and my Bio can be less lengthy & rambly (this is not real

To get the iTunes link, browse to their music in iTunes and right-click on their name when it appears as a link. You should see a menu to "copy the iTunes URL".

After you have copied it, type the word in your post that you want to appear as the link, for example "Missy Higgins". Highlight that and click on the hyperlink button in the text editor (it looks like a little globe with chain links). Paste the link in the URL field. If you'd like the link to open in a new window or tab, go to the 'Target' tab and choose "New Window".

The link should appear and work in your post like this:
Missy Higgins
Hope that helps...

Also, since there is no rich text editor for comment boxes, sometimes you can build them in a post on your own LJ, then go to the HTML tag and copy the code and paste it into a comment box. It's easier.

Also...
Is it Thursday yet?!?
I'm a whore for my yoga pants. Cannot. live. without.
I like Missy Higgins too.
SUPER quote!

That helps a lot for the iTunes problem...the Rich Text/HTML bit confused me lol, but I'm sure Google will walk me through it :)

Also...
I KNOW, right!? I'm excited for the Calzona storyline of course, but I'm also eager to see the post "Take him!" drama...because that was epic.
Hooray for Missy Higgins and yoga pants!
& thank you! I saw it on a Fb Bumper Sticker and quite liked it...it's my new mantra.

...29 hours and counting! :)

Okat what does OTP mean? lol I know bad I should know.

And that quote I love it because its true.

[seethejoy]

"One True Pair(ing)" ...I think it sounds awkward when not using the acronym but basically it means that they are perfect for each other & shippers use it to say that they support this couple & think they're meant to be. So it's perfect for Callie&Arizona!! :)

Naley from One Tree Hill is a close second for me, but Calzona takes the cake :)

Girl, we are completely in sync with our television obsessions. I swear, I keep saying I want to watch less TV, but I keep adding more. I mean, surely I could be a more productive human being if I didn't spend so many hours in front of the freaking thing. Anyway, I'm watching those same shows for the exact same reasons! I really tried not to watch Life Unexpected, but I couldn't resist and it completely sucked me in. Also, I LOVE Lauren Graham. I so miss Gilmore Girls. :(

[seethejoy]

Haha, yes tv is so addictive! I would be on the dean's list if I cut out tv and the internet from my life...and unfortunately I'm not joking lol. Alas, I can't help being sucked into the lives of fictional characters! And I'm a music/arts junkie so I've watched every season of American Idol and So You Think You Can Dance, apart from that I'm proud to say I haven't fallen victim to reality television

[savache27]

If I cut out the internet there’s no telling how much I could get done. Actually, if I cut out tv and the net I have no idea what I would do with my free time. I guess I could go outside. There’s stuff to do out there, right? Oh yeah, I’ve watched every season of Idol, but that’s the only reality show I watch. And usually I think I won’t watch it next season. Yeah right. And then they had to go and get Ellen. Like I’m gonna miss that. Lol, I wish Ellen would have been there for the ‘Pants on the Ground’ guy.

OMG, Gilmore Girls was my favorite show! I loved it so much!! I think I had withdrawals when it ended. What were they saying about Life Unexpected? Gilmore Girls meets Juno? Total manipulation! They knew GG fans would have to check it out. Oh well, I’m glad I did. What’s one more hour of my life? ;) But yeah, I felt completely cheated by the abrupt ending. After all those years of Luke and Lorelai the ending was pretty anticlimactic. I was like…wait…what?? That’s it?? NOOOO!!!

1. I watch Life Unexpected too :)
2. Have you gone to JillandKate's blog, or Twitter? That's where the picture from my icon came from.
3. Kelly Clarkson as always! Literally she could move to Antarctica tomorrow, proclaim that the Flying Shaggy Leprechaun is her new God, make music dedicated to said God from now on & I would still listen to it. Love KC <3

Hahahah. I feel the same way.
Okay, I'm done.

[seethejoy]

Yeah, my love for Kelly is borderline unhealthy but I've accepted that haha

Life Unexpected is definitely my new CW fave. One Tree Hill and Gossip Girl have headed downhill this year, but I'm liking this newbie!

And...I feel that it is blasphemous to suggest that I be a J&K fan and NOT read their blog or follow them on Twitter. I do both! lol. But I only discovered them after I saw Kelly live in October last year so it could be from before that? I have not had a chance to go through their blog archives yet...that's extreme fandom, even for me. Maybe in the summer when I'm not in school anymore haha

[sunlessnight]

Haha, I feel like as long as we know it's borderline, it's okay haha.

I'm not sure where that picture is, but if I find it one day while reading random blogs, I'll show you!

[skatesandbflies]

This is so awesome, you are so awesome!

Your tags that say 'fave quotes' and 'current obsessions' are totally awesome because I love obsessing too! And quotes :D And now you're telling me you're procrastination?! That is so me :P

I feel like a bad LJ person for having you on my friend's list for a while and only now discovering all this!

[seethejoy]

Meh, it's all good. Glad to know you have finally been sucked in by awesomeness ;)
Jokes. haha :P

& I also did not really realize your awesomeness until yesterday, either so we can call it even :)

Hooray for quotes! I totally slacked on the 'current obsessions' monthly posting but I went through a lull in life for a few months a while back so nothing seemed all that exciting anymore. But it's all good now! There will most definitely be a June Obsessions post :)
& I'm REALLY trying to work on the procrastination thing! I say that as I LJ instead of write my paper due in three hours that I haven't started yet...I've decided it'll just be a little late. whoops :P
I just really should not have taken summer courses. My brain wants to be on vacation & now it's rebelling because I am telling it to work.
