Happy Birthday To Me!
Aug. 18th, 2009 09:45 amSo ... yeah. Today's my brithday. I have yet to do much of anything. (Though I did watch Linkara's new video. He danced. Twice. And tossed off his hat and coat. Happy birthday to me!)
Tonight I'm going to the theater, and tomorrow I'm seeing, not, one, but TWO Shakespeare plays! HUZZAH! I love it when my grandmother buys me tickets for presents.
I'm excited, but I don't feel different yet. I guess that'll come in time ...
So, I won't have access to the internet for the next couple of days. Stuff going on. But hopefully I'll be distracted by my (yet to be recieved) awesome presents! And I promise, SLASH IS COMING SOON! The Winter's Tale, Harry/Marcone, some TGWTG ... this weekend? Next week? You get the picture.
So ... TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY! HURRAY!
P.S. I recently got addicted to Girl Genius. I need to stop getting addicted to webcomics. Or post a list of my favorite ones, so you lot can get addicted with me.

Date: 2009-08-18 02:39 pm (UTC)Speaking of Linkara, did you see Bennet's new video? As soon he started talking/ranting about how everyone in the Silver Age got spanked (I- I really don't know how anyone would even have the balls to spank Batman *scarred for life*), I thought of you. ;)
no subject
Date: 2009-08-23 05:22 pm (UTC)Hee hee hee ... yeah, uh, thanks? (Personally, hearing Linkara say the word 'spanked' just short circuited my brain for a while. Yes, I am that shallow.)

Date: 2009-08-27 12:48 am (UTC)*headdesk* Now I'm getting ideas about Insano in a Santa hat ... shut up! STOP MAKING ME THINK THESE THOUGHTS!
:D ... This fandom is like a breeding ground for plot bunnies, gah!
I suppose all fandoms are like this once they get started. It'll be nice when/if this levels out someday ...
Ah. I saw the pilot of Being Human a while back. Liked it. I hear the show is pretty good ... *no time* I also hear that it is incredibly slashy *will eventually watch it anyway, despite not having the space for more fandoms*

Date: 2009-08-27 09:28 am (UTC)Oops? :D To be fair, I was mainly thinking of the Critic and his I Love Christmas flailing, and how (Ask) That Guy would get incredibly annoyed by the whole thing, especially the mistletoe, but Insano in a Santa hat? AWESOME!
no subject
Date: 2009-08-29 12:34 am (UTC)OH MY GOD I'D FORGOTTEN ABOUT THAT! *squees* That was so adorable. Almost as cute as 'Follow That Bird.'
and how (Ask) That Guy would get incredibly annoyed by the whole thing, especially the mistletoe
Heh heh heh ... maybe the fic could be one of those cheesy 'How We Saved Christmas' things, and Ask That Guy could be the Grinch/Scrooge character?
Insano in a Santa hat? AWESOME!
Indeed. Remind me once Christmas rolls around.

Date: 2009-08-30 01:08 pm (UTC)HOW COULD YOU HAVE FORGOTTEN THAT? It nearly gave me diabetes from adorable! :D
Heh heh heh ... maybe the fic could be one of those cheesy 'How We Saved Christmas' things, and Ask That Guy could be the Grinch/Scrooge character?
That would totally work!
Indeed. Remind me once Christmas rolls around.
I'll ... try? I'm not good at remembering things, though, but hopefully between the two of us, we'll remember?

Date: 2009-08-30 03:37 pm (UTC)It really was fricking adorable. I remember when I first started watching his lists (it went lists - Tom and Jerry - everything else so I hadn't known about Follow That Bird at this point), I was just so pleased and melty by how sweet and fun it all was. And I do kind of also love that while that was the adorable side, we got the selfish, spoilt brat the very next week. ;)

*coughs* Aramis is still around, you know. ;) I'm good at nudging, so don't worry.

Yaye! At least one of us has a brain, then. :D

Date: 2009-08-18 03:23 pm (UTC)PS: is it me or your birthday is on the same day as Linkara send a video it's like his present to you maybe that's just me but still....you lucky bastard :p
no subject
Date: 2009-08-23 05:28 pm (UTC)Yeah, I am a lucky bastard. If only ALL of my birthdays fell on a Tuesday ... *sighs*
(For a horrible minute I wondered if Linkara would somehow find out about my birthday and make mention of me in his video, but thankfully, he did not.
Dangit I wanted a strip-o-gram this year!)no subject
Date: 2009-08-23 08:03 pm (UTC)Well he did do a little dance it kinda counts and there's always next year

Well he did do a little dance it kinda counts and there's always next year

Yes, the dance was very nice. Very, very nice.
I am happy to wait for new vids with new fanservicey bits.

no subject
Date: 2009-08-23 05:29 pm (UTC)Harry/Marcone?... YOU DON'T READ THE DRESDEN FILES DO YOU?! :D
Yes, yes I do. I own all of the books. I aspire to own some of the audio books.
The online fandom is WAY TOO SMALL! Harry/Marcone is growing, but THREE updates a month at mafiabanter instead of ONE is still not enough for me!
no subject
Date: 2009-08-23 06:56 pm (UTC)And I seriously LOVE the books. Did you watch the tv show while it was on? I did, but then it got cancelled. I was disappointed that it didn't even GET to the actual stories ( i liked the show, don't get me wrong). But the books are AMAZING. I've never actually spoke to another person who reads them, unfortunately. Thomas was my absolute favourite character though, loved him. Harry/Marcone... I just realized I never actually "shipped" anyone in the Dresden Files. Didn't mind Harry/Murphy though. Perhaps I'll head over to that comm and check out some fics tonight. I love being back on my own computer ^^

Date: 2009-08-25 11:43 pm (UTC)I watched the Pilot and the second episode ... it was ok. Not loyal to the series, but ... maybe that was a good thing. See, when movies try to follow books too much and FAIL, they get ridiculed. If you take the premise, the characters, some of the plots, and make something completely new that's essentially The Dresden Files: The TV show ... you've got a great COMPANION to the books.
At least, that's how I've tried to view things.
I just realized I never actually "shipped" anyone in the Dresden Files.
Well, I'm a slash fangirl. (That's the reason I got online.) So the Harry/Marcone was jumping out at me during their first meeting in the back of Marcone's limo.
I MUST finish some fic of those two, the fandom is too tiny ...
