My problems really AREN'T like other peoples'.

-I just caught myself in the shower mentally singing "Glad I'm Not A Pevensie" to the tune of Shona Laing's "Glad I'm Not a Kennedy". I... don't even know. (I was thinking about the problem of Susan, and also the short story of the same name, which I think is where that came from? But still. Wtf, dude ( Read more... )

oh i read 'pevensie' as 'pensieve' and was all musing over it before i realised what the talk of susan meant! /thick

my fandom heart will explode if i get to see zack. i'm not up for a meet'n'greet so it's not necessarily going to happen.

why is it that you are getting to see andy hurley? do you guys get fnmtv? i saw an advert for it but missed when it's starting. blah blah blah

possible hope on the babysitting for wednesday front. *has everything crossed*

I actually do that all the time, too. I can't help but think it's a deliberate anagram, really.

and, oh, dude, seriously- I realise how potentially lame and slightly creepy this makes me, but Kat and I SO flailed hardest over "omg there's Zack!!" in Denver than we did at, like, almost anything else. We were deeeeeeeply uncool about it, it was kind of awesome.

I just watched that promo thingy he did for the Nike Human Race thing which came up on icecreamhdaches. And I don't think we get fnmtv at all (yet?), but if we did I suspect it'd be on cable anyway, so. Nuts.

Oooh, good. *crosses fingers for you more!*

You wouldn't think I'd get that, Cobra, Sidewinder, but I do. It's a snake thing.

See, I'm smart before coffee and work *lick*

Dude, I knew you'd get that, you are totally smart in the ways of, like, snake breeds. Or general animal stuff, at any rate. <3

*smishes youuuuuuuu* (My mum wants to say your kittens are ADORABLE, btw.)

1) you have not filked anything in Far Too Long.

2) if you keep insisting on using R.E.M. songs for your bandom fics, i swear i will defriend you in real life. don't make the baby Mike Mills cry, ok?

Well, that *was* a cover of a Tokens song.[Which itself was a cover of an older, African song *and* a Pete Seeger song.]Which means it's exempt, right?
*shifty eyes*

ok, i'll give you that the title is not an R.E.M. original, but the rest of the song is. i don't think Pete Seeger said anything about a candy bar, a falling star, or a reading from Dr. Seuss.

I dunno, that Seeger dude's pretty tricky...

:D
[And I bow to your far superior R.E.M. knowledge. :)]

You forgot the bit where I fail just as much!

Wait, wait, you didn't tell me about making fun of Ryan's spelling!

(Will you write up your trip properly *scolds*)

THIS IS 100% TOTALLY MY STRATEGY YS. Also I need to pass that on to the others who got it in some earlier cities, thank you for reminding me. :D

You totally didn't fail, you actually said WORDS to them, I heard you! Also, they all liked your shirt. :D

...I didn't? He was all *pauses halfway through his name, looks adorably confused* "Huh." And I was all "Oh, don't tell me you spelled your name wrong! *awkward giggle*" and he was all *little Ryan Ross smiiiiiiile, determined look, finishes signing* "No, it'll just be... unique" and then I died quietly on the spot and also checked to make sure Zack wasn't about to glare at me. Heh. :D

(I will! I swear! ...sometime this year! *wants to just keeps having no time* *FAIL!*) <3

Andy Hurley is presently competing with Michael Stipe for the title of 'most adorable dude to grace a flatscreen in front of me today'.

This sentence hurts my soul!

...I know, I'm sorry. If it's any consolation, Izzy's already trying to defriend me in real life? Although, oddly enough, I have been flailing far more about REM than anything else, lately, I just keep doing it offline.

It's okay; I won't defriend you IRL ♥

Yay! Best Iggy ever! ♥! (And safe travels and have fun in TO!)
