Things What Are Awesome: *My impending paycheck. There were some rough moments last week, but it's worth it for More Money, you know? *Checking my email this morning to find a request to translate one...creepy. (I kinda heart Coraline's dad, though. He tries!) * To Say Nothing of the Dog , which I've been reading at work and brought home tonight due to having like five pages left. IN CONCLUSION LOLZ
*Heeeey, Sorting Hat meme ! That's pretty awesome. *I have like six Dreamwidth invite codes. Drop me a line, if you're interested in one, and I'll email it on along. *So Warehouse 13 was pretty interesting...related note, I finally read the Penny backstory comic last night? And I kind of want to smack Joss A LOT MORE, now, OH MY GOD. (It does mildly Joss my fic, but I don't feel like trying to fix it, so.
Ever realise you've been part of something for five years? On the Internet, which therefore makes it ancient? milliways_bar is five years old . WHAT IS THIS NONSENSE. Five years ago, I was...left, there's a meta!crack Back Room party in progress. In less sentimental news: What is it about big-ass trucks that makes people feel like they can take up four parking spaces? I don't get it
So. Night at the Museum . Basically, that was AWESOME. The beginning was a little WTF mate, but I can see where it came from, out the other side. (And it just possibly explains why snap_time has been quiet lately.) In conclusion, good laughs, awesome history-poking-at, and OSCAR THE GROUCH (if not for very long). Also, Amy Adams is rather impressive.
Random notes: *Saw Star Trek yesterday. Simon Pegg was my favorite bit, other than the shuttle that might have my name on it and the fact that the Enterprise bridge had a couple of scanners like we have...middle bit of "Slipping" wouldn't present any problems, once I knew the words. *Still want to see Night at the Museum at some point. *Milliways plottishness looms, starting tomorrow. IT WILL BE FUN
So I've had Dr. Horrible in my car pretty much nonstop since February - except today after work, I decided I needed to get back to my roots, and swapped it out for BNL. This is a Good Decision, I feel...is pretty awesome. (A coworker who goes there said he thinks it might be the greatest Rickroll in history; I think it's second to the Macy's Parade one Cartoon Network did, but that's still not bad.
*So, Dreamwidth; if you know where I am here, you know where I am there. *Four days and a bit into genderbendbb work, and I've got over 6000 words. This is SO MUCH FUN. (Incidentally, they're... and Everything, however... I never could get the hang of Tuesdays. * Alphabet meme and this thing are still open, though I may not get to them until after I have a rough draft of the big story down
* Alphabet meme and this thing still have seven open spots each. *I think I'm going to rename my fic journal once I have a little spare income (the various gift certificates I haven't spent yet will... the verdict was ridiculous, as shown by the public outcry surrounding it. There are some news links about it at the bottom of the page; I may come back later and try to write up an explanation
*Fic research, the Ask Your Flist edition: So this will come in handy when I get to genderbendbb stuff, and I want to ask while I'm thinking of it. What are some routine things men do that women... (Pretty much the only thing you can assume is on the list already is the menstrual cycle.) *So on Friday, I broke 100,000 words on the year. That's... pretty awesome, I think. *Work remains work-like
