Turns out, this and this are kind of amazing too. 0.o So many talented people on earth!

Omigod, this is the greatest thing I have EVER seen. Fucking brilliant!

Guess what?! IDS is cancelled!!! WHOOT!!! Actually, not as much whoot, since it is my favourite class, but still. FREE TIME (sort of)!!!

I am going to take advantage of this time to not only take a little nap, but also recommend YouTube channels, which I told you I would yesterday.

So did any of you see the video Canadian, Please? It's a hilarious music vid made by a couple of Canadians for Canada day, and it is pretty much the coolest thing ever. I highly reccomend you check out Gunnarolla's channel, namely his other music videos (Envy, Mother Nature, Get Away, Vanity), his response to the racist comments on 'Canadian, Please', and his webseries 'To My Internet Lover' (watch it through the playlist on his channel, as it is less confusing to find the next episode that way) is the weirdest, most bizarre thing ever, and yet hilarious and I kind of love it a lot. Also, check out the girl's account too - she has some fun songs and a couple of funny vids.

Also, Angry Films Productions are AWESOME, and their 'Angry Films On...' series (see the playlists on their channel for different series) is basically just these four guys commenting on the news, and it is friggin' hilarious. One of the guys also does an equally hilarious series called 'Rock, Sock, and Robot' which is, you guessed it, about a rock, a sock, and a robot. Each episode, these three objects have a coversation about something random, and it is so funny, you will pee yourself. If you decide to check out AFO before RSR, then you should at LEAST watch this RSR video so you understand why they keep saying "ha bisky" on AFO (you do not need to watch them in order). Also, we should bring ha bisky in as an actual phrase. Anyways, RSR started on a different channel, so you can find the first 26 episodes here, as well as weekly bonus episode, and then 27 on are at Angry Films' channel.

Also, if you haven't seen Little Kuriboh's "Brooklyn Rage" music video yet, then SHAME ON YOU. Go watch it now. WOAH, HOLY CRAP, LK JUST ADDED ANOTHER VIDEO (edit: lol, I missed the 'O') AND I DIDN'T KNOW! A whole day ago, too! And I call myself a stalker. Shame, Mary. Shame. Wait - what - yaoi?! LK is doing yaoi now?!!! The world just got exponentially more awesome.

I have made a new friend with the powers of my Whedon worshipping T-shirts Nolan gave me. Boo yeah.

I had a fabulous weekend involving much writing and chilling with Nolan and London Fogs. Yay! It was a gooooood time. Also, I wrote those Dear ____ things, and they saved my life, and that was awesome. Now, whenever Lullaby bothers me, I either sternly tell it to remember the letters and wait patiently, or re-read the letters (I seems to enjoy them...for some reason, I quite like being snarked at by Lara) and it works! Yay! But because Lullaby is persistent, I now have a whole stash of ideas for it come December, so that is cool. It is going to be awesome, duuuudes! Hopefully, anyways.....

I just mixed myself a coffee using the French vanilla powder from Tim Hortons that my parents bought me a while back. Mmmmm....it smells soooo goooooood.....

In other news, I finally got around to watching the recording of the last live Broadway performance of RENT that David gave me the files for. "Mary!" I hear you cry. "That was ages ago! You love RENT! Why did you not watch it 'til now, when you are in the middle of NaNo? This makes little to no sense!" Well, yes, you'd be right about that. Allow me to explain.

When I first got the files, none of my media players supported it and I did not really know what was wrong and ended up giving up for awhile. Giving up for awhile turned into forgetting about my failure and moving on, sort of accidentally. Fast-forward to just before Kaiti left for Japan. I needed some way of watching Gundam SEED in her absence, and also wanted to show it at the super special awesome chocolately fudge coated mega supa anime spectacularmathon, and so Kaiti brought me her external hard drive with all the episodes on it (online subbed episodes - and of course I want subbed because Akira Ishida is Athrun in the Japanese version and omigod I love him so much - are inconsistently translated, so the character's names keep changing and it is REALLY confusing, which the show kind of is without those issues already) and told me to download VLC so that I could play it with all the exciting language and sub selections. Fast forward to one of Nolan's visits here to Regina, when I realized I had no way of watching Gundam SEED except for discs 6 and 7 which I stole from Kaiti before she left the country so he brought his external hard drive to get me all the episodes on my desk top computer and I downloaded VLC. Fast forward to today, when I randomly ran into those files of RENT that David got me oh so long ago. I suddenly realised that VLC would probably support it so I tried it out and voila! It worked. And, of course, once you start RENT you can't stop, so I watched the whole thing (and thought the Roger kind of looked [but did not sound AT ALL] like a younger Vic Mignogna, and the Maureen looked like a cross between that chick from Criminal Minds and Idina Menzel) with the justification that it was my reward for reaching the halfway point in NaNo. And guess what? IT WAS AMAZING! I cried. Again. Did you know I have never not cried in RENT (oops, double negative)? Even the movie still makes me cry, and I have seen it SO MANY TIMES. It astounds me. Anyways, I was hiccup-sobbing all through the finale, cried during all deaths (ok, there's only one that's real, but still) and SOBBED HYSTERICALLY through the entire encore! It was ridiculous, how hard I was crying. Audible sobs, I tell you. My neighbours must wonder about me. When Anthony Rapp came out on stage, I lost it completely. And Tracie Thoms (movie Joanne)! I had no idea she was in the final Broadway performances! She was AMAZING! More so than in the movie, I would say. She just comes alive in front of an audience, it's wonderful!

Wow. A lot has happened that I haven't posted about because I've been so busy (mainly with NaNo). Mostly, I want to recommend some YouTube channels to you all, but I'll maybe do that later, when I actually have time to describe each one to you so that you want to watch them. But I do want to tell you all to go read one more thing before I go today! Remember when I told you about Qzie on Fictionpress and told you I was reading her story WWID and loving it and you should all go read it (which you all STILL SHOULD, so get on that)? Well, WWID was her NaNo story for last year. Since I have been enjoying it so much, I decided to follow her NaNo story this year. She posts it as she finishes, and so far there are four chapters and a prologue. My opinion thus far? AWESOME. It is called Event Horizon, and is pretty sweet. So go, follow along, and leave encouraging reviews to help her feel inspired to finish! Also, she is blogging about the experience here, so you can fangirl to her directly if you'd like. I think she'd appreciate it....or she might think you are all stalkers and be afraid. Whatever.

So there’s this awesome thread on the NaNo site called “Dear ________ (Author, Character, Muse, et cetera)”, on which authors vent their frustration about the writing process by writing letters to their characters (or from their characters), or inner muse, whatever. It is a lot of fun, and there is some great material there. Funny stuff, I say. And it works for the writer, too. Any author knows that we don’t really control the characters we create. They go places we never expected, become people we didn’t know they would. The only way to get them to cooperate, then, is to write them a nice letter (or, maybe a stern letter) begging them to do what we say.

So, having come (almost) to the middle of my NaNo experience, I found ‘Lullaby’ suddenly deciding to take revenge on me for ignoring it in favour of another story (aka, ‘To Live’, my NaNo novel). This revenge came in the form of new ideas about ‘Lullaby’s plot and how to get where I am going, my sudden missing of writing the characters that have been absent for the long duration of Fray’s back story, and a crippling desire to, if not write ‘Lullaby’, then to at LEAST work on the outline. As you can imagine, this makes it very difficult to concentrate on ‘To Live’ and get in my daily word counts. How to battle this? Write letters to my pesky, troublesome novels and characters. Beat them into submission. Remind them who is boss. I thought you might enjoy reading how I did this. Do not worry – there are no spoilers.

Side note: Cptgigi is my username for NaNo, where as Mreeb is my username for Fictionpress. ‘Lullaby’ is a child of Fictionpress, and ‘To Live’ is a child of NaNo. This will be relevant.

( Dear cruel, cruel author... )

As you know, I've been rewatching Gundam SEED. God, I love it. It is so good, I can hardly handle it. I think I am enjoying it even more this time around. I still fangirl squeel CONSTANTLY. And cry. And giggle. And cheer. And applaud. Sugoi! Totally sugoi.

( And now, I leave you with what may possibly by my favourite quote from Gundam SEED (SPOILERS) )

BAM! So goooooooooood.....

 Actually, over 20,000.  Words, that is.  I currently have 21,277 words for NaNo.  Yay me!

I went to my first ever NaNo write-in today, and it was AWESOME!!!  Lot's of fun, very productive, and we all ordered pizza.  Om nom nom.  AND I met a bunch of new awesome people!  Hurrah!  A lot of whom are living in Luther, just one floor below me!  Double Hurrah!

Yeah, I basically wrote all day with my fellow Regina WriMos, set a personal record in a word war (678 words in 15 minutes!) and had a crazy amount of fun.

I can't really remember if anything else exciting happened this week...last night, some of Emily's film friends came to her room to predrink before going to the Owl (the university bar).  I hung out with them, but did not drink since I am underage, would not have been able to join them at the pub, and therefore would have been alone in my drunkenness once they left.  Anyways, they were a fun crowd, but my best story there comes from one of the girls, Sara (there may or may not also be an h at the end of her spelling, I do not know), trying to find a way to get this guy to stop texting her.  One of the other girls, I kid you not, took the phone, called the guy, and told him that Sara was experimenting with her sexuality with her, and she would appreciate it if he gave her some space for awhile so she could figure things out.  Sara kind of went nuts.  It was awesome, and I now kind of love that girl (the one who phoned the guy).

Anyways, here are some more quotes just for you, from the write-in!

Morgan:  “What’s your name?  I’ll add you on facebook and then we’ll be REAL friends.”

Morgan:  "Now that I know the joke, I am going to KILL IT!"

Kim:  “You are wise in the ways of threesomes and foursomes.”
Morgan:  “Yes, I am.  Practice makes perfect.”

And now, finally:

Morgan:  “Guess who is talking to me on Facebook!’
Kim:  “Jesus!”

I like that all of them involved Morgan, who is pretty awesomely fun.  And, just for the heck of it, the joke that Morgan was referring to is the 'OVER 9,000!!!" Dragonball Z reference.

Pure win, guys.  Pure.  Win.

 

 What happened this week?  Oh my, I've forgotten.

No, I haven't forgotten!  I've simply been doing little more than writing!  Yay!  NaNo is going wonderfully, and I'm having a blast!  Even though I still kind of hate my female protagonist (I like my male one, though).  Mayhap I should have spent more time developing her...

I had the best film class ever last night.  We watched 'the Cabinet of Dr. Caligari', which is a sweet German Expressionist (aka, the style that inspired Tim Burton) silent film.  

In other news, I love having a car.  Just now, I wanted oreos.  So Emily, our buddy Mike, and I drove out and bought oreos.  I am now currently enjoying said oreos.  It is wonderful.

Also, you should all go watch the two most recent YGOTAS episodes.  Because it looks like the rules....just got screwed.

Edit:  I totally forgot to mention, but because I called Cesare a mind slave, Dr. C's voice in my head is the same as Marik's...specifically LK's Marik's voice.  Speaking of which, have you all been stalking LK recently?  You should.  He made a super long and cute post about his convention adventures involving tears and friendship symbols that made me squee.
"I AM INSIDE YOUR BRAIN!  FOREVER!  BINKY BOY!"

Halloween was a blast.  The drama party was great, and Rocky Horror was fun as always.  Also, Project YGO released their Halloween fandub episode of Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters and it was pretty fantastic.  It was the episode where Yami no Bakura kicks Ghost Kozuka's (aka, Zombie Boy's) ass.  In the abridged series, it is also the episode Yami no Bakura does one of my favourite quotes; you know, the joker one ("Why so British?").  It was really well done, I was super impressed.  But what I must say about that most of all is GOD I LOVE THEIR CHOICE FOR BAKURA/YAMI NO BAKURA'S VOICE.  Seriously, she's amazing, right up there with Rica Matsumoto (Bakura's voice in the original Japanese).  I was so scared of Yami no Bokura watching this!  It was awesome!  He's so badass when he wants to be.  And she (the VA) has his laugh PERFECT.  I also quite like their choice for Malik Ishtar (the scene between Malik and Yami no Bakura was great!).  You should all go watch it, just 'cause.

Anyways, on to the rest of Halloween: I got to spend time with Nolan, which was awesome, and he went to Rocky Horror dressed as Rocky, which was also awesome.  All in all, a good time.

 Yesterday was the kick off to NaNo, and I had a great start with 2,091 words in one day!  I'm a little behind today, though, and have a test tomorrow, so I should cut this short.  In fact, don't expect to hear from me much over the next little while.

Random observation:  Dude, I have become such an Otaku.  I used to call Bakura's alter ego Dark Bakura, and then I started calling him Yami Bakura, and now I call him Yami no Bakura.  Oh boy.  I even occasionally catch myself calling Atem Yami no Yugi as opposed to just Yami, or even Yami Yugi (when I need to be specific about which Yami alter ego I'm talking about).  Oh boy...

 I hate this so much, it literally makes me physically ill.  I can't even believe the extent of how awful this is.  I saw this on Kaiti's livejournal, and commented there, but I needed to mention it here too, I think.  Twenty fucking witnesses who stood by and did nothing.  No, wait, that's not true - some took pictures and cheered the rapists on.  I hate this shit more than I can even make clear.  It blows my mind.  And don't tell me shit like "Well, this sort of thing is expected in towns like that" because that doesn't make it better.  In fact, it's worse - what does it say about our world that there are places where brutal gang rape is not shocking, it's expected?

Okay, I'll move on to the rest of my week, 'cause good stuff happened too...

So, have you guys seen the commercials for that new show Eastwick?  I haven't seen any episodes yet, but I just found out that DARREN CRISS has a recurring role on it!!!!!!!!!  Darren Criss, musical writer for Starkid, singer-song writer extraordinaire, Harry Potter in 'A Very Potter Musical'!!!!  Yes, that Darren Criss!!  ZOMG!!!  I have to start watching it now!!  It is so bizarre and yet awesome to think of him on popular TV!!!  I am so pumped!  Congratulation, Darren Criss!  Also, everyone should stay tuned for Starkid's new musical, Me and My Dick.

What else?  Our quad won a pumpkin carving contest on Thursday, so we got a ton of chocolate as well as an ice cream cake from DQ.  It.  Was.  Awesome.  I also did a skype conference call with Emily, my older sister Jennifer, Emily's older sister Erika, and eventually my Aunt Phoebe and Uncle Ron, and even Andy (Erika's fiance).  It was pretty sweet awesome.

I'm in S'toon now.  Yesterday, I went and saw Zombieland with Nolan, and it is the best. movie. ever.  Pretty much, guys.  It is so well done (pretty gross in terms of gore, but not too bad - Repo was more bloody), really well written, very VERY funny, and also had some great dramatic moments and even some badass action.  I highly reccommend it.

Also, I got up chapter 15 of 'Lullaby'.  By far the hardest chapter to write in terms of comfort level...I'll maybe talk a little more about that experience some other time.  It was just so very uncomfortable.

Today is Halloween!  Happy Halloween!  Also, happy birthday to my dad and Uncle Ron!!  They are brothers, but not twins.  They were both born on the same day, but two years apart.  On Halloween.  Creeeepy.  I think it's pretty cool.  Anyways, tonight I'm off to a drama partay at the U of S, and then Rocky Horror Picture Show.  What shall I wear?  I have no clue...

In other news:  OMIGOD THE LATEST CHAPTER OF NARUTO!!!!  I won't say anymore on that topic but WHOA.

NaNoWriMo starts at midnight.  Wish me luck!

I am sooooooo tired.  What a weekend!

Nolan came to visit me, and we went to the Halloween Cabaret together.  First, we pre-drank in Emily's room since I wouldn't be able to buy drinks at the cabaret, what with my being underaged still and all.  It was pretty awesome.  I went as Emily Strange, and our quad's RA / my friend Megan cut my bangs for me.  They are now fringe bangs like before, but much thicker than they were.  It is funky.  Anyways, Nolan went as a blind referee, which was pretty hilarious.  The next day, Nolan and I watched a bunch of Gundam SEED.  He torrented the same translation of it as what Kaiti had on her computer when I watched it with her and brought his external harddrive. So now I have the entire series on my computer.  It is wonderful, since I can now watch more than just disc 6 and 7, the two most depressing in the series!  Now, I can depress myself with ALL the wonderful episodes!  Anyways, it was pretty great since Nolan hasn't seen it before.  And I haven't rewatched it yet, so I'm noticing all these things that I didn't before and freaking out!  Mostly, things that Le Cruset says...

That evening, Emily, Nolan and I went to 'the Proposal' which was pretty good (I kind of got ridiculously into it, so that was fun) and then I worked on homework/wrote five pages of Lullaby.  I have to say, I am really disliking writing some parts of this chapter.  It is extremely uncomfortable for me and upsetting.  But these awful things that happen have to happen, and will explain so many future happenings!  Other parts, however, are fun.  So yay for those!  Nolan went home this morning - thanks for an amazing weekend!!!  I should be home next weekend, so at least I'll see him again soon!

After I reccomended it to her, my friend Rachelle from 3 North (that's the quad she's in's name - I'm in 4 South) has finally watched 'A Very Potter Musical'.  She LOVES IT.  She's as obsessed as me now!!!! I AM SO HAPPY TO HAVE ANOTHER AVPM FAN AT LUTHER!!!

In other news, I effing love Joss Whedon.  Just a few minutes ago, I rewatched his speech for Equality Now for the first time in probably over a year.  I forgot how wonderful it makes me feel.  Thank you, Joss.

( This may be the most exciting thing I've hear all week! )

Who else is ridiculously excited for this?  And I thought Kristin Chenoweth guest starring was as awesome as it would get, but noooo.  If you haven't started watching GLEE yet, find some way to do it.  If you don't know what it's about, here's the plot in a nutshell - it's about the Glee Club, or show choir, at a high school and involves lots of singing and also has Lea Michele (Wendla in the original Broadway cast of 'Spring Awakening', which is an amazing musical you should all go buy the soundtrack of NOW) in the lead cast.  Wait, here's a clip of one of the performances just to make you excited (and if you're wondering why they kind of look like they are on drugs, that's only because...they are...watch the show to find out why! ;D ).  I guarantee this will make your life better, and you won't be able to stop smiling.

LK meets Vic Mignogna...Joss Whedon meets GLEE...what's next?  Just how much more can the universe take?


Edit:  This isn't a clip, but if you all watched the GLEE clip I linked of the boys above and enjoyed it, here's a recording of the girls song from the same episode.  Too awesome for words.

 I can't stop giggling!

Seriously, guys.  When the hell did Tom Felton get so damn cute?!  I mean, I've always been on the "Tom Felton is hot" wagon, but cute?  And what - what is this - HE SINGS?!  Check the link, guys.  And tell me you are not giggling and squealing like a fangirl reading volume 22 of Fruits Basket, or that scene in the GetBackers manga where Ginji's poisoned and Ban goes all hardcore to save him and its really sweet, or that scene in DNAngel where Satoshi gives Daisuke CPR, or.....what was I talking about?  Oh yeah!  You're all squealing at how adorable Tom Felton is, right?  Adorable like Momiji, or Ginji, or Daisuke!  Ok, maybe not quite....those three are pretty effing adorable...but close!!!!!  Awww, who knew.  If you want more, click here.

Hmm, interesting idea now.  Adorable-off: Who, of Momiji, Kisa, Ginji, Daisuke, L, or Richard (haha, I'm kidding about Richard...maybe...) is the cutest?

Did Momiji just win?  Off the top of my head, he did...but then I got thinking about Ginji....and the way L's eating candy all the time...and how cute Daisuke is when he goes into his spazzy panic modes...or that time when Richard slaughtered an entire orphanage and claimed it was self defense.....it's all just so cute!

Kaiti, Catherine: we need to work Tom Felton into our live action Gundam SEED movie somehow.  OMIGOD!!!  HE SHOULD PLAY DEARKA!!!!  He just needs to get a sweet-ass smexy tan, and he'll be set!  Or, ahahaha, he'd actally be a great Yzak too.....





Edit:  The more I think about it, Tom Felton would be TOTALLY AWSOME playing Yzak, and so I now vote for him in that role over Dearka....though he'd be a sweet Dearka too....

Edit, the Sequel:  OMG! I should have added Colin Morgan to the adorable-off list.  Okay, new list just for him: Who, of Merlin Colin Morgan or emo Colin Morgan from Doctor Who episode 'Midnight' is cuter? (Merlin wins Merlin wins he makes a super cute emo but Merlin wins for meeee!)

Yet another edit!:  The striped shirt on Tom Felton in that video looks really good on him, which made me have the random desire to see him cosplay as Matt from Death Note.  You know it would be hot.

Look!  I refrained from posting more than once today!  Though, the day is not yet over...

I am now officially caught up in 'Looking For Group'.  All I have to say about that is..........OMIGOD IT IS SO EFFING GOOD I CAN'T EVEN HANDLE HOW AMAZING IT IS!!!  Okay, that's not even CLOSE to all I have to say about LFG!  I am so serious, guys, if you haven't read it, do it now.  It is not only so funny that you will pee yourself even if you recently relieved your bladder and thought you had no urine in you whatsoever, but it also has some drama.  Well done drama, I should emphasize.  This is important to mention, because sometimes a commedy parody series can kill itself by suddenly attempting some genuine drama for no apparent reason.  But LFG has an actual plot, and the drama comes in naturally, with Richard there to kill the moment and break the tension if neccesary.  I will admit, I was really surprised when the drama showed up because it was such a fantastically bizarre and morbid comedy up to that point - but what surprised me more was how damn good that drama was!  I fangirl squeeled, feared for the lives of characters, and punched the air triumphantly while reading LFG, and all while killing myself laughing at the regular intervals.  And don't worry - the drama's arrival takes nothing away from the morbid comedy: that is ever present, and when it's not, it'll come swinging back when you least expect it, making it all the more amusing.  So, moral of the story, you should all go read this comic as soon as you have the chance.  It's fantastic.  You owe it to yourself.

I also kind of bromantically ship Cale and Richard (WHAT?!), despite Richard being a sociopath who cares for nothing and is happiest when killing things.....when I have time, I think I'll write a big post on my opinion about Cale and Richard's relationship.  So interested, btw, to see where Richard's character is going (I mean, beyond the hilarity).

Also, for those keeping score, there is yet another similarity between Jenna and I: we both love LFG.  AND we share Richard as our favourite character, though that's not as impressive.  Anyone who has even glanced in the general direction of LFG is pretty much guaranteed to have Richard as their favourite character (though, I have to admit, I have recently started loving Cale a ridiculous amount....but Richard is still by far my favourite), so that hardly counts as a crazy new Jenna/Mary similarity.

 OMIGODAGAIN!

( This time, my freaking out has more specific LFG spoilers from up to pg 173, so go read it first. )

I'm just gonna go right ahead and stick my head in a paper bag while waiting for the world to end.

 OMIGOD.

Richard had a serious moment.  In fact, it was almost a whole page.  Of Richard.  Being serious.

It was touching.  Richard.

And no one ruined the moment.

....

Does this mean the universe is about to implode?

 AHAHAHAHAHAHAA!!! Oh god, I can't stop laughing.  This is the funniest thing I've seen in a while.  Oh god.  'Twilight', I love you so much just on the basis of making people believe that ANYTHING to do with vampires will be instantly popular.

Okay, here's what I'm laughing at.  Awhile ago, Kaiti showed me this great video parody of Twilight.  I laughed, it was great, but Felix just sent me this video.  Apparently, the people making this "web" series took the Twilight musical parody very seriously, because 'I Kissed A Vampire' (and I liked it) is a rock musical...about vampires.  And guess who is in it?  LUCAS GRABEEL.  Who I love.  He plays Ryan in the High School Musical movies, in case you didn't know...AND HE PLAYS A SINGING VAMPIRE IN THIS AHAHAHAHAHA!!!!  This looks so fantastically awful, I just might already be lolfan simply from watching the trailer.  I might just have to watch the series, while giggling and, probably, vomiting and crying simultaneously.  Cromiting, I think is what that One Act play deemed it.  I will be giggling and cromiting.  It's gonna be totally awesome.  I mean, the last line in the trailer nearly KILLED me in its horrific cheesiness.  I think it was meant to be funny, but it came out funny for all the wrong reasons because that actress delivered it so badly.  But Lucas Grabeel was in that scene, so it had that going for it at least.

Anyways.  Just thought you all should know.

 Apparently, it was my darling little sister Catherine who gave me that pick up line.  Thank you, Catherine.

So.......I broke.  I started reading 'Pet on Duty', the other yaoi manga Jenna lent me.  It's so adorable!!!  I'm going to have to lock it away so it stops being so distracting.  You know what else is distracting? 'Death Note'.  Damn, it is so good!  I just got to the part where they see L for the first time....I LOVE L SO MUCH!!!!  Such a fantastically addictive series...Why can't I stop reading it when I know exactly what's going to happen?  Must resist......At least I've managed to avoid LFG....except, now that I've mentioned it, I want to read it again.  And suddenly, I also have the urge to read WWID some more.....NO, MARY!!!  YOU HAVE SO MUCH TO DO!!! NO PROCRASTINATING!!!  Good news, though - I finished the chronological outline of my NaNo novel.  Yay!  Now I just have to print that out and scribble all over it, figuring out just how the crap I'm gonna tell this story......

 The writer's block thing this morning asks about the best and worst pick up lines you've ever heard.  The best I've heard, by far, is "we're so great together that if we were in a Joss Whedon show, one of us would be dead by now."  I can't recall who told me that one....

Anyways, I realized that it had been ages since I'd posted a quote, so here's one I just found and remembered and it made me giggle!

Catherine: "Katarina got her hair cut."
Mary: "Is it ugly?"
Cat: "No, it looks really good."
Mary: "Ehren also got her hair cut."
Cat: "Is it ugly?"
Mary: "No, it looks really good."

Yup.  Anyways, I'll stop procrastinating now.......
