the blog

Been writing up a storm. A freaky storm to boot. So, with that in mind I have little to no comment on the world around me. It’s just barely there, a view from the corner of my eye.
So today’s mini blog is all Faith all the time.
I *heart* this character so much. So so much. Like it is disgusting how much. Her flaws, her anger, her battle towards redemption, her predatory nature. And that’s just what was on the ACTUAL TV shows. don’t even get me started on the awesomeness of Faith in the comics and in the fanfic (yes it is a true hobby) world.
Have a video. It should prove it to you (and then go to youtube and find more vids. Srsly, HOURS of your life will be well spent.) how utterly awesome Faith is. Plus, this was one of my favorite songs to perform, you know, back in the way back days when I was a big ole gay drag king performer. No I didn’t make this vid. I wouldn’t even know where to begin to make these. But OH! I have such a wish list if you are a vid maker… I would give you cookies and stories if someone would make me a special vid. I am just putting it out there to the universe.

And now, off I go to be productive.

My brain hurts.
Not sure why.
It makes me wonder, when Zombies are walking around saying ‘brains’ is it because they want to eat them, or because they are suffering from nasty migraines? Come on, it’s a viable thought! It could just be that I am not getting enough sleep… naw!

Look what happened on Saturday. Yes I am a nerd. I just thought that this was pretty awesome. Hank passed the 72,000 mile mark. I have never had a car long enough to get that high in mileage. *knocks on desk* let’s hope for many more!!

Had a mini heart attack this morning. I guess YSB Servers were down for like 5 minutes? (maybe 2 minutes but it felt like a LOT longer to me!!!) I don’t like clicking a link to my site and getting the Internet Explorer Page Cannot Load error message. Especially on TUESDAY! I mean really. But all appears better now.
And speaking of Tuesday! Have a Fuffy vid!

There are SO many out there, and so many that are amazingly good, that I can never pick a favorite. Instead I just pick a goof one. Yay Fuffy!
(yes chapter eight is loaded, chapter nine almost finished -had to rearrange some scenes. I am thinking I want to get nine and ten done before I write on any other project, just to have some breathing room.)
thus far this week seems extra long… which I know is weird as it is only Tuesday. Bah!
tomorrow’s the day of all irish all the time - so happy about the menu for dinner tomorrow. *GRIN*
Off to work for me now, to get as much done as I can.
Oh, also… keeping an eye out on the news. the world keeps shaking. I totally think it is trying to tell us something!

It’s that crazy wacky time again. Where we SPRING forward.

I like to view it as the sudden loss of much loved sleep, but hey, who am I to quibble with semantics at this point.  We all get to jump into daylight savings time as of 2am Sunday. But seriously, why do we still do this. We haven’t been a nation of farmers for a LONG time. though it does make summer interesting, as here in the beautiful PNW (pacific north west) in the high of summer the sun doesn’t go down until 10pm.

Now that my official good deed is done, on to the randomness!

ECCC was pretty awesome. SO many people there of such a variety of likes, sizes, tastes. it was nifty.
Saw a few pretty awesome people, the most awesome being Jo Chen. She is like uber awesome, and was so nice. To know she has created some of the most amazing Buffy Comic (season eight) images had my inner fangirl squeeeing. We got one poster signed and mary posed for a picture with her, which was cool as well.
Also, wil wheaton, shorter than one would think. But how cool was he just getting off the elevator and walking into the throng of it all? I totally thought about ambushing him, but this is me. An ambusher I am not.  Mary snapped a pic of Thomas Jane (Hung, Punisher… weird those two titles together). There were also like a million amazing artists there. So many, almost too many with the amount of people in attendance it was hard to really see everything.

That’s what tomorrow’s for! (and pics will be loaded then)

Now I am off to pass out, sleep, and lose an hour. Oh and I will pray that Theo doesn’t wake me up at 330AM again. Srsly.

if this is true… it is sort of cool.
no, I mean it, srsly. Not that I am a fan of shorter days, (well I am) but anything that alters our current reality is pretty interesting. Reminds us that we are but little creatures on a really big chessboard.

In the scope of things that are lame… when something suddenly becomes your fault, and yet you have no control over it, are merely the facilitator, how much verbal BS should you be forced to take? In my reality apparently this amount of BS is quite large. I just love being stuck in the middle of things. It’s no wonder I am a pro at writing angsty Faith centric fanfic. I so have the inside track of knowing what it’s like to be in the middle of a world where everything is your fault and yet you have no control over it. It’s… so much fun. Only not. Aw well.
I think I need a vacation.

I am thoroughly pissed off at my State Governement. Because if I was in a whole lot of debt I couldn’t simply keep spending money I don’t have how ever I want, and demand my boss pay me more for nothing. And yet! The WA State Government doesn’t see any problem with this. HOW DOES THIS HAPPEN?  And do they not realise that by adding more $$ to the already insane SIN taxes, people will opt out of purchasing those items, and thus the state will get even less money than they have now? I suppose that is what they refer to is insane troll logic, just like the idea of looking at their expenses and changing the allocation of money to useless things. Instead they demand that they must raise the amount of money they don’t have to spend on programs, and cut others. And the ones they cut are the ones they know the people will get up in arms about, which in turn will make the outraged citizens more willing to pay higher taxes and fees. C’Mon people! Let’s vote these idiots OUT OF OFFICE and get some people in there who, I don’t know, understand cause and affect, and understand that in times of fiscal crisis is when you tighten your belt not open your mouth to eat more.

Better news? Watched a couple of episodes of Damages Season Two last night. OMG this show has more twists and turns than the autobahn! I love it so for how it sucks me in and totally messes with my head. Though I am thinking I noticed something, a slight tell, which may mean something. I am keeping to myself for now, but oooh. So good. This show makes my brain hurt with the amount of thinking I do.  Yay!

Today’s blog post has been brought to you by the letter P (pissed off) and the number 7 (because 7 8 9)

Math!
Black slacks + cream colored dog who is currently blowing his coat = bad bad things.

Last night we watched the badd-assery that was the ‘Princess‘ episode of Legend of the Seeker. It was so many levels of awesome I can’t even describe it.

me: “OMG did you see that face Cara just made?”
sis: “Wait, you said this was a new episode?”
me: “Yes.”
sis: “But I’ve seen this. Her getting captured.”
I paused the episode.
me: “It’s new.”
sis: “I know I have seen this before.”
me: “Nope. She just, gets captured a lot.”
sis: “Really?”
me: “Totally. It happens in the books too. But wait! I bet she will do something bad ass.”
I hit play again, and Kahlan does do something bad ass.
me: “See! Ha! Kicks their asses even when handcuffed!”
sis: “OMG. you are so gay.” – okay she didn’t say that, but I know she was thinking it!

and hello world of suckage, where we won’t get a new Legend of the Seeker episode for like… ever… (okay a month, but it will feel like FOREVER!)

Is it just me or is America really doing to hell in a handbasket? I am just getting that weird feeling….

In better news, than you know looking like an angora sweater with all this fur stuck to me, it’s Tuesday! Which always makes me smile, and gives me some heart palpitations as I work diligently to do updates. But shew, done. Yay!

Okay, I could prattle on for hours, but I need to get to work. It’s good to be productive and all that. Apparently all the cool kids are doing it.
