I'm a music junkie. What's your favorite song RIGHT THIS MOMENT? A link to a youtube of it where I could hear it would be wonderful, but I'm willing to search it out myself.

I'm really digging Miranda Lambert's, "White Liar". There's something about it that would make an excellent vid if I could figure out what I wanted to vid it to.

ETA: MAYBE A MERLIN VID? YES? MERLN'S A BIG FAT LIAR THAT ARTHUR LOVES?

I don't usually post the results of these kinds of memes, but this one cracked me up:



LOL. Amazing.

Non-fic recs:

I've been meaning to mention fox1013's fabulous Yuletide collage countdown Each Peach Pear Fandom. It's so fun! And witty and smart and cool and there is/will eventually be something for EVVVVERYONE I am sure :D :D :D Go check it out! All the previous entries are linked from each new post. I love it.

Another daily joy-bringer is the Daily Puzzle over at mecurtin's Good Book of the Day. Today's is especially extra super-cute: I currently do the puzzles on medium but I think I am going to try to upgrade to hard (lol hard) soon. I like them because they have all the good parts of jigsaws but are a different picture every time, and plus it is impossible to lose a vital piece to the vacuum. \o/

missed it yesterday, & so i make up for lost time by posting not one but TWO highly awesome shoes. ( witness! )

GLEE!!! I watched it live streaming EST this week because last week I was a wreck waiting to see it. Very good idea.

( Spoilers for Glee 113 )

Ways I am going to keep the Glee love alive during the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Hiatus:

Listen/watch the songs 134057946589084 times
Watch all the episodes 10-20+ times
Vid the show!
Memorize all the lyrics and dance moves
Hopefully join a fannish hiatus comm

Glee love will never die!

Thank you so much to everyone who left a snowflake cookie and virtual gifts! I managed to send some out before they stopped making them free but sadly not as many as I hoped. They are definitely happymaking to see.

a) FML period of finals is now ALMOST OVER. Seriously, guys, this week has been misery, partly because I'm kinda sick (and TIRED and I don't want to take TESTS or write PAPERS or stay UP SO LATE WORKING every single NIGHT and I MISSED my friend's DISSERTATION PROPOSAL, I AM SO MAD, so listen to me whine about it, uh-huh). I have finished my paper that is due tomorrow at nine! and I have finished my take-home final that is due tomorrow at nine! and now I have only to do some brief reading that we will be discussing in our (three-hour) make-up class tomorrow at nine! which is even in English, how lovely! Soon, there will be sleep.

b) Tonight in Chicago it is snowing, and when I was walking home earlier this evening the snow was fast and tiny, and icy enough to sparkle in the streetlights, and as it swirled around in the wind it looked like the air was full of glitter. It was beautiful.

Of course, tomorrow the high is supposed to be twelve. With windchill bringing it down below zero! Awesome.

c)



I think that's kinda pretty.

Top Chef fans! I have a feeling I know exactly how this is going to shake out, but still. Some people like jerks! I don't judge! I'm sad the show is over already. :)

ETA: OKAY, LISTEN. The game is that you have to pick ONE option per person -- so, for instance, you cannot marry Kevin and Bryan, *cough*shoemaster*cough*. THESE ARE THE RULES, PEOPLE.

Poll #1496961 Mmmm chefs.
Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: All, participants: 20

Bryan?

Michael?

Kevin?

So, I was watching Warehouse 13 the other day, for reasons that do not need exploring at this juncture, and Joe Flanigan popped up as a guest-star. I recognized him from fannish osmosis, but I didn't realize I'd never seen him live, so to speak. That thing he does instead of acting?

I find it actively terrifying. My god, SGA fandom. I didn't know.

Respect.

A noble knight fell in the fight
because he wore his armor too tight.
It looked quite an odd piece,
but the girls loved his codpiece
because it was fitted just right.

These are the last for tonight, the rest I will have to wait until tomorrow.
