They are in love with each other, absolutely, unashamedly, unreservedly.

'Cause it looked like fun!

Cats Icons!

Mon, 08 Aug 2005 21:22:54 GMT

Being just as insane as Lisha, I'm doing a 100 icon thing for Mosaic100. I picked Cats...mostly because it was a musical, which the community was lacking, and I know of a website that has screencaps/cast pictures like WHOA, and I wanted reason to use them. Soooo, I've done 35 icons thus far - you're required to do 35 set to 35 different themes. Some of them were fun, and some made me want to kill all icons. I did kind of get lazy after a bit and I fell into a certain style that was easy enough...but, yesh. Some of these I'm proud of, actually. I'll explain themes if need be, but I have no ambition to do all of it in a post, sadly...

So, yesh, onto the icons. If anyone from my flist or comms I post this in wish to use any icons, just comment away. Credit would be nice, too. ^_^

Oh my god...oh my god...

Sat, 09 Jul 2005 06:02:18 GMT

Never sit at the top of the driveway at midnight. Just...NEVER DO IT.

Tito and I were sitting around, and this truck drives by, and it slows down but keeps going down the road so we didn't worry much...and then we're sitting around and we see a light coming around the turn, and Tito says "Oh my god...that's the same truck..." and it slows down, practically stops, and pulls into the driveway. And FUCKING SPOTLIGHTS US. Tito and I leapt up and just started flying down the driveway, and I'm screaming "DAD. DAD. DAD." and it follows us down...and I think it stopped at one point and then kept following us, but I just know I was exhausted by the time we had like 20 yards to go and I thought it had stopped, but it kept following us down until we ran into the house, and it came through and turned around in the driveway and then left. It was the single most terrifying thing I think I've ever gone through.

We called 911...because well teh Daphyn is reasonable and all good like that so I took her advice, and the lady said an officer would get in contact with us, then the line went all "if you would like to make a call, please hang up" blah blah blah. But yeah. Terrified. Never called 911 before, that was nifty, lol...

God. SO FRICKIN' SCARED. Ugh. Probably not staying downstairs for long, it's terrifying up here. Call the house if you feel like talking tonight.

I HAVE THE CATS VIDEO BACK!

*Dies*

It goes back to Hanaaahhh on Monday, and Alicia gets it sometime next week, then Kelsey gets it next Friday. One of these days, it'll go back to Sarah. It IS her video. But, no. Not yet. *Sings along happily*

I so know it's spring. There are dandelions, and the flowers are coming up, and the vinca is purpl (I think that's what it's called?), and there are butterflies fluttering around when I come home. Sadly, along with these things, it also means it's getting hotter (*clings to her hoodies*) and there are bugs. Everywhere. I was nearly mauled by a bee today, and there are FLIES when I go to the barn. *twitch* Okay, I know everyone hates flies, but I feel I can win any contest. Being a horse person, flies are more than an annoyance. They are enemy number ONE. Ugh. EVERYWHERE. ALL THE TIME. Rawr. I want them GONE.

Um, yeah. Flies = evil.

And sad news...my Rambaldis shirt is too small for me. And I have no idea why. It's about the same size as my vintage shirts that I love so much, and it fit okay when I got it. But this morning it annoyed me to the point of changing into my Defy Gravity shirt. Maybe it was just annoyed with me, but yeah...annoyingness...maybe my boobs got bigger. *Glares at them.* Hopefully I can fix it, I've done it before. Damn me for getting the girlie style.

And that's about it for now...Hanaahh comes over Sunday, yay. And now I must go watch CATS. *Dance*

-Maddy

Blah.

Thu, 07 Apr 2005 01:19:27 GMT

It's storming. Pretty, yes, but freaking me out.

Nice thing about it (well, aside from the pretty) is that, when I walk outside, it smells like rain...and it just washes over me and takes over my senses and it's lovely. I adore the smell of rain.

And Lost just did an Alias music end episode thing...semi-annoying music building theeeennnnn STOP. It was odd.

I'm bored. No one is online. I talked to Willses for a bit, but aside from that, no Kelly, no Lisha, no Nicole, no Brendan, no Eve...bah. Woe is me.

This should so give me an excuse to write...or, at the very least, find a last name for Selena. Because I finally just caved and let Nadia keep 'LaRue' (Nadia LaRue sounds like one word...and it annoys me. If anything, it's just gonna magically change to Daniau or Duval or Labelle midway through the story. Like Hawk's did. Tee hee...Hawken Garret. *Gigglesnort*

But, no, I'm LAZY. And I don't know what I want to write. In all honesty, that idea I had for the weird town that truly believed homosexuality was a mental disease and therefore went all 'But I'm A Cheerleader!' on everyone, except less pink and blue, and more asylum....is actually starting to look fun...and has more of a serious air than I originally pondered. I think Nadia and Selena are part of that universe, because Nadia is quite angsty on the subject of her girlie...and Selena is just broken...so yeah I'm thinking they've been forced to be seperated. *Huggles them*

LISHA IS ONLINE. OMG. YAY. *Goes to click the little window. It scrolls away.* Damnit.

Ewwwwwww, Desperate Housewives. Ewwwwww, Vaughn. Ewwwww, Vaughn/Sydney. Blah to you, JJ.

Yay, rain. If it rains, I can go have a free Saturday and make my t-shirts with Hanaaahhh and get the Cats video back. YAY.

AWWWWW. Alias go BYE BYE. NO FAIR.

I should wander off before I continue ranting...

'Don't make 'em cry, just make 'em buy, and make 'em buy alot...'

Sun, 03 Apr 2005 17:40:32 GMT

So Weird tvtome thread, started by one of the most vocal and in-the-know fans....

"Jon Cooksey informed me this morning that Disney has bought the rights to So Weird again, for another five years, probably so they can release it on DVD. This means they will probably put it back on TV to ensure the DVD sales will go well."

Bwahaha.

Not something big and official, like Disney announcing 'Oh, yeah, the DVDs, TAKE THEM NOW' which would be GORGEOUS...but damnit...they're releasing other shows/movies on DVD and So Weird deserves it. Though, if it came down to 'New Episodes' (which would never happen, but I can dream) and DVDs...I could so see the entire fanbase screaming in joy...yes, yes I can.

*Thinks* New eppies of So Weird...now wouldn't that be nifty. I think I'm the only person in the entire fanbase that didn't much mind Annie. I mean, Fi was the best, she will ALWAYS be the best, and no one could completely replace her (*mutters about Cara moving on*), but I did like Annie. She was fun, she could sing, and her first episode was FANTASTIC. It was also Fi's last, and and the will 'o the wisp and LITTLE DUCK and the ring and AHH. I loved that episode, so therefore I think I associate Annie with that. I also associate Annie with Jack. Stupid kids never realized anything, did they...see Fi never much had people to pine over, so Annie and Jack was amusing.

Oh, but yeah. I think I couldn't care either way if it was Cara or Alexz that returned...Fi and Annie together would be the best, Fi would be awesome, Annie would be cool too...not picky, I would just want the show back. Not gonna happen, in fact it's dead set that it won't (Disney puts a stupid 65 episode limit on all their shows to save money and I guess good press, and So Weird met that in its 3rd season.) but a fan can dream...

Yes, my obsession has been renewed. I'm clinging to the five songs I have and I'm planning on downloading my favorite other ones. And I'm running around madly on the fansites (*glomps Cory, who has been around since the beginning, and sooo isn't going anywhere soon*) and having general fun time. Yesh. YAY FOR SO WEIRD.

-Maddy

In the darkness is the light...

Sun, 03 Apr 2005 06:23:18 GMT

My So Weird obsession is slowly raising itself up from the dead. I never watched this show when it originally aired...I think I was too young to understand it, I was a Nickelodeon kid, and I just didn't turn to it. But I think my first summer of talking on the lovely MSN with Lisha...I would be up at, like, two AM and it would come on Disney, and I began watching it. And I fell in love. I just couldn't help myself. I loved the characters, the stories, the music...gah. They stopped playing it, even at like 4 AM...sadness...but here's hoping it makes it to DVD, or someone has all the episodes on tape...

But, annyways, I dug up the songs I downloaded. Yay! My absolute favorite song like, ever, is from So Weird...

There’s a low rock wall
By the cliffs of Mohàr
Runs from down on the ground
Right up through the sea air
As a child I would climb
To the top of those stairs
And wish on the fog
I was anywhere else

The farms and the valleys
Are ringed with the stones
Of the men who built walls
So’s to be more alone
All that’s left of them now
Are their fears and their bones
But the rocks they pulled up
Were all I’ve ever known

The Rock fought my spirit
The Rock fed my anger
The Rock broke my heart
Like the waves of the sea
I tried hard to fight
But it still grew inside me
This island
My Ireland
The Rock is in me

Hard was the ground
In which this child grew
Unforgiving and cold
Was the home that I knew
But knowing the soil
Holds no harbor for you
Makes pulling up roots
That much easier to do

Set sail!
Young pilgrims
Set sail to a new land
Set sail!
Our future
Is out there to find
Goodbye Ma
Goodbye Da

The Rock fought my spirit
The Rock fed my anger
The Rock broke my heart
Like the waves of the sea
I tried hard to fight
But it still grew inside me
This island
My Ireland
The Rock is in me

Now it’s been years
Since I’ve been in that place
And the winds of my life
Have all weathered my face
But it’s only with distance
And the coming of grace
That I see in you beauty
I could never replace

The Rock forged my spirit
The Rock was my anchor
The Rock held me fast
Through the storms of my youth
Now you’ll never die
‘Cause you live on inside me
Illin sha
Ma herrin fain
La-lie-lie-lie

*Glings to The Rock* It's gorgeous. Just...gah, gorgeous. I want to see that episode so badly, now.

And I remember Jewel being in the Siren episode. Faintly, because I don't much remember the Siren ep much, but yes, I remember her. And that happifies me.

*Pets her poor So Weird* I wish I could find the few episodes I had on tape...the one where Annie comes...well Fi's last episode...I want to watch it now...

-Maddy

What are the chances there’d be you and me
There is no might have been, I say it’s destiny
All of the lives we could live
All of the love we could give
Who would ever guess
Out of all the rest
That you would be here with me

Oh it’s a one, one, one in a million world
And we’re two, two, two in a billion
In a one in a million world
A zillion stars in the sky
Planets all spinnin’ by
Take away what might have been
And here we are again!

It’s a one, one, one in a million world...

01. Post a list of 10 TV shows you watch/ed.
02. Have your friends list guess your favourite character and couple from each show.
03. When someone guesses your favourite character, bold the title. Favourite ship, italicize.
04. When guessed, tell us why you like that character/couple.

1. Buffy

Character - Tara. She was just...I don't know. She was different. Her character arc was AMAZING, from this quiet girl to a girl who could sooo kick your ass. She truly cared for Willow, but was the only character in a relationship that was smart enough to get out when she felt things couldn't be helped. Plus? She's just preeetttyyyy...

Relationship 1 - SPUFFY! Don't we all love them? They're pretty, and yeah, Buffy was stupid, Spike wasn't much better, but he always loved her. He got a soul for her. She...well she did nothing for him. That's why we hate her. But we loooove Spuffy.

Relationship 2 - Everyone do the dance of Tillow love. They were probably the most adorable thing in the history of ever. They were quite the metaphore for the LONGEST time, then well, what can I say, Tara floats Willows boat. Even when Tara left I felt the pairing was still good...because Tara was doing what she needed to do...and then they had coffee and things were HAPPY again!

2. Firefly (One more character left)

I'm quite tempted to say I have two favorite characters...and you know what...I do...SOOO!

Character - Mal...no, not because he's hot in those tightpants, though you gotta admit, they aren't bad for him at all. He lost his faith in everything, and it made him the most bitter, sarcastic person you'd ever meet, but he manages to be the biggest softie you'll meet when it comes to some (aww, Kaylee...) He's somewhat stupid, but he knows when he screws up and he'll find a way to fix it, even if it does involve guns or wobbly headed geisha dolls. And he's just going to kick your ass.

Relationship - Mal/Inara. I mean, COME ON, just MAKE OUT ALREADY! They both love each other...it's painfully obvious in Our Mrs. Reynolds for Inara, and Heart of Gold for Mal. The fact that they can't be together makes the whole think annoying...Inara can't let a relationship conflict her job, and Mal can't accept the path she's chosen. But damnit, they're just going to do it. Like, right now. In the movie, it's gonna happen.

3. Alias

Character - Marshall....why? Because he can kick. Your. Ass. And he speaks German. And he has a BABY. And his name is Black Kitty. He's just love all around.

Relationship - Sarkeny, because well, it's just pretty. And Lisha explained it pretty well in hers.

4. FRIENDS

Character - How can you NOT love Phoebe? She's ditzy, way out there, and she says what's on her mind. She talks like me, dances like me, and I'm afraid to say thinks like me. She likes to stay out of conflict, but when it comes about, she can sooo beat you down.

Relationship - LOBSTERS. Obviously. Duh. They were meant for each other since Ross pined after her in high school. And they loved each other, and they're meant for each other...why? Ross whines, and Rachel bitches. What can I say, individually I don't much like them. But together, they're perfect. They got married, and dude, when you're drunk the truth comes out. Plus, Emma brought them closer together, and in the end, RACHEL GOT OFF THE PLANE. Oh, and? I have the urge to yell this, even though I'm usually on Rachel's side......THEY WERE ON A BREAK!

5. Scrubs
6. The L Word (Still need character)

Relationship - I'm gonna give Lisha this one, 'cause it's close enough. Dana and Alice. DALICE. They're adorable, and they obviously like each other despite the multiple imperfections they've pointed out to each other. They're complete perfection. And Tonya = evil.

7. Angel (Still need relationship)

Character - Illyria...the smurf...gotta love her. She's completely lost in her new world, and has no idea why she can't have things the way she's used to. She eventually adapts to the side she's been forced to, and goes all insano with her destruction...but damn, she loves it. And watching her try, though quite stupidly, to help Wes...well, it's heartbreaking. And I love it.

8. Boy Meets World (Still need character and one relationship)

Relationship 1 - Awwwwww, Cory/Topanga. LOVE THEM. LOVE THEM NOW. They've been in love since the age of two...and I mean, if you don't love them as adults, you have to love them as four year olds, when Cory falls into the llama pen. And through all the ups and downs, they stuck by each other...and just...they're cute.

9. The 10th Kingdom

Character - Wolfie...just 'cause he's adorable.

Relationship - Wolfie/Virginia...because they want each other...and now. And through all the odd things he did, she couldn't help but lust after him, oh no. And he knew they were going to be together...his wolfie intuition told him so...and the singing ring! And sex in the woods. Yes. Wolfie/Virigina is grand.

10. So Weird (BAHAHAHA. If anyone here even knows character names I'm going to love you forever. And here is me begging for So Weird fans...I miss my show....)

AND AND AND! I'm gonna nab another meme...similar to above, but you figure out my favorite songs in MUSICALS. (Lisha had fun and chose relationships instead of songs...so now doing both)

1. RENT (songs/two are tied) Mark/Joanne...because DAMNIT, it's there! Vibes!
2. Wicked (songs/two are tied) Elyero...because they deserve each other...and he loves her despite her outward appearance, and even when she takes that hardheaded approach that the rest of Oz mistakes as wickedness, he still loves her. Hell, she changes him, and he still loves her. And she just thinks he's hawt stuff. So, meant to be. But Elinda, meanwhile...best friends...and they already care for each other...maybe it didn't happen past the end of the musical, but in between acts one and two. Yes.
3. Bare
4. Tick, Tick...BOOM
5. Hairspray (songs/two are tied)
6. The Lion King
7. Cats (songs/three are tied)
8. Mary Poppins - MARY/BERT. 'Cause they waaaannnttt each other. Jolly Holiday is Bary love.
9. Rogers & Hammerstein's Cinderella - I think that is just you, Lisha sweetie.
10. Once More, With Feeling - Spuffy. But of course.

And on the musical one...if you want you can try to guess my favorites from The Boy From Oz, Moulin Rouge and Chicago. More than one for Chicago. ^_^

*Hops around*

-Maddy

Lisha is in Wisconsin!

Idina. (Or even better? Idina as Drake.)

Gary Coleman.

Possessed ice machines.

Reception desks left alone.

Evil elevators.

Crazy good cell phone signal.

Only 5,000 minutes to talk.

Musical.

Just muses in general.

Gotta love it!

P.S. Alias? WAS AWESOME. I cried. I giggled madly. I love it.

I have Defying Gravity on my phone. ^_^ Well, okay...it's just 'I think I'll try defying gravity' over and over, but you know what it's more Wicked-y than any of my other ringtones. Holy crap, I have no idea how much the whole thing will cost, the ring alone was $2.50..hopefully I don't get my butt kicked...

But the Cingular site gets my lurve. Because in the 'Movie/TV' section, it has like EVERY song from Wicked. I can't listen to the previews, but if this ringtone ended up not downloading like $10 worth of stupid stuff, I want No Good Deed and Popular and What Is This Feeling? and One Short Day and March of the Witch Hunters and AHH! Oh, oh, Wonderful. 'Cause I bet it's something like "Wonderful, they'll call you wonderful!" over and over, and I can deal with that. There's also the FRIENDS theme and 'If You Were Gay.' *Giggle* Still can't figure out how to get the old Alias theme (speaking of that, I need to watch that new eppy don't I...), but once I do, I'm going to nab it. 'Cause it's pretty.

And everyone is GONE NOW. Daphyn is all running off to Michigan, and Lisha is in Wisconsin...all in the same day. I can call both of them, and I think once my dad gets off the phone I shall call Lisha so I can ramble like I do on a daily basis. Tomorrow or Saturday I'll prolly call teh Daphyn, at least if what she gave me was her cell phone number. If I get a Southern guy that says "There's no Daphyn hare," I'm going to die laughing.

I shall be at Jessi's tomorrow. *Dances* Yay for that. "I'm missing something..." "A girlfriend?" "Yes." "No! A CAT!"

*Stares* Syd dahling, you in the yellow dress is slightly frightening...

Today is musey Jason's birthday! He celebrates his tomorrow, with Emily (due to the twins deciding that they wanted to be born on different days...stupid midnight...Jasey is technically a day older than Emi. Even though he's only four hours older. Emi is bitter about it, too.) but yeah I like being all 'Woot Jasey!' today. He's NINETEEN. It seems that only a year or two ago he was 6. Oh, wait, THAT'S BECAUSE HE WAS. Silly me. But, anyways, yay with that. Tomorrow is the yayness of both the start of April Fools, April Fools Day, and the fact that Emi shall be 19 as well. She will be very happy about that, not only because she's odd, but because she gets 19 fireworks for her from Luke. And 19 for Jason. Yay for my pyromaniac muses.

And the oddness that is Chloe...she talked to Emi today. Emily doesn't much have a view on her, most of the deals are with Amara and Luke, but she's long stopped thinking of her as a friend. And they were kind of dry and sarcastic with each other, but the civil was still there. And at some point, Chloe raises an eyebrow and grabs Emily's hand and stares at the rings on her hand. So then they talked about Zack and the fact that Emi wants to have kiddlins someday and, well, the odd stuff that didn't seem to fit Chloe's conversational skills. So that was sort of fun.

And HOW does Syd get reception from in a coffin? When I can't even get it at my house. HMMMMMM? And the smart thing to do would be to breathe shallow, wouldn't it? Holding your breath makes you have to take deeper breaths...plus it's a pain in the ass and makes your heart go 'STOP IT NOW!' And she should calm down, but you know, if I were in a coffin alive, I would be much worse off than that...

I should hop off and watch the rest of Alias...

*Clings to Daphyn* I'm listening to Kendra and Natalie sing 'Take Me Or Leave Me.' *Pauses* Oh my god.

I never thought I would ever hear G(a)linda and Gary Coleman singing together. HEHEHEHE. *Huggles Rent alumni*

And Lisha isn't going to be here the rest of the week. But of course, I'm always calling her when I'm on vacation, so she should expect the nightly call. Yesh.

What else do I need to say very quickly....oh! Bridget Jones : The Edge of Reason! Adorable! Cute! As good as the first one. I'm insanely in love with the original, but this one was juuust as funny. I have to read to the book, though, 'cause I'm sad that I didn't finish the 2nd one before I watched the movie. Oh, well. It was still wonderful. And Hugh Grant and Colin Firth are as delicious as ever...*melt*

I have to give up the Cats video. Yes, sad, I know. But Hanaaahhh wants to see it, so I'm reluctantly handing it over. Hmmms....

And I should go and get some sleep. 'Cause I'm like that, with needing the sleep and all.

P.S. *Stares at Jessi*

Huffery snuffery, huffery snuffery, huffery snuffery, huffery SNUFF!

Yes. Cats. Again. *Clings to it*

I really need good screencaps of it. I'll ask around, but I REEALLY want frame-by-frames. Mostly short ones...Rumpelteazer shaking her head/pointing back and forth in The Awful Battle (SO CUTE!), and the same charrie and same song, when she's shaking her cute lil' butt on Munkustrap. Tee hee. And also, Misto in The Jellicle Ball...there's a moment where the camera focuses on him tilting his head back and forth. *Melts* I want to watch that over and over and over in an icon. Yes. Oh, and Rumpelteazer's rump-shakin' in Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats (right before they group up on the stairs, when they start walking backwards). Yes. Rumpel is just too adorable not to want icons of her...so must find someone that does fram-by-frame requests.

Less than 3 hours on the Kristin Bell on Ellen thing. Megh.

What happened today, aside from school stuff. I have homework, oops. I'll do it, eventually. Just an interview with imaginary nobles and servants for Mrs. Levin, and 8 really easy questions for Reinkie. So, bleh.

Aside from boring stuff like that...Catty made friends with Chloe. Kind of. They talked, at the very least. Catty decided that Chloe may be considered a bitch by all, but she felt the need to give her a chance since she didn't know her. Didn't go over with hugs and puppies, but Ellie was quite civil even to begin with. They talked for a good half hour, 'bout random stuff. And I learned that Chloe can be kind of okay, though of course when put back in company with the minis that knew her she was alll about being close to what we saw last night. I got to be amused by the look Cat got when she was offered a cigarette...her nose got all wrinkled and she stuck out her tongue and shook her head. *Pets Catty*

I just realized I also have that summary I have to do of To Kill A Mocking Bird. Rawrness. I guess that means I should actually do homework.

Toodle pip!

-Maddy

Oh!

It's hawt. I think I'm going to name it Mistoffelees, because it's black and white(/silver) and Misto is a better name than Munkus. *Nod* And bwaha, Lisha is first in my address book. I want more though. 'Cause I like adding them in.

Well huh

New muse. She's...interesting.

Her name is Chloe. She's a bitch, quick to defend and not much liked by our mini muses. This is because well Luke more or less rejected her, and it turned her into a psychotic bitch...we're assuming because she'd never been turned down before. She tried to beat the crap out of Amara, and ever since, well, obvious hatred. Though she allowed for many amusing moments, including Emi walking into the room and screaming "HOLY SHIT!" and Luke running out of the room very fast. She took hits at Amara, but of course got them spit back at her...and and BECAUSE SHE WAS THERE, Luke and Amara pretended to be back together. And they kind of have to continue it until she leaves. Which as of now could be tomorrow, or well longer. LAMARA! LAMARA! *Huggles Luke/Amara*

Chloe is an interesting critter. Much like Trish in some instances, such as the prideful and bitchy and stubborn qualities. Luke offered her a room (he just wants Amara longer) but she declined and ran off...to the barn, where Morca found her...the conversation was odd. Mostly Morca cornering Chloe in the tack room, because the girl had planned to crash there, and trying to get her to admit what she was doing. Chloe (I'm gonna call her Ellie, 'cause I like it more) was very rawr...but I think she finally said...

"I'm not going home."
"Oh, look, getting somewhere. Why?"
"Fuck off."
"Well, well, you've got quite the mouth. Kind of remind me of my best friend, except I'm much more fond of Trish. *Pause* Look, whatever is going on, I don't much care...obviously there are issues here, and apparently also wherever you're supposed to be right now. But either way, I'm not letting you sleep in the tack room. Go home, or stay in a room up at the house. If you're going to sleep on our property, you might as well be comfortable."

Then Morca dragged Ellie back to the house. She doesn't like her much, and she's going to be rather blunt with her and anything she says. But she had to be a mom and at least give her a place to stay. *Pets Morca* And I'm almost interested in learning about teh Ellie now. Because Emi told me she used to be an okay person, and that they were more or less friends in Jr. High. *Shrug* It'd be nice to know more about her.

Along with her, I got another muse...Nadia. She took FOREVER to name. God, what is it with the lesbians, I can never come up with names...

And I have school tomorrow. *hiss* Bye everyone.

Stupid Maddy....watching The Gift....and Anya is ranting and Xander holds up the ring and I go "Awww, so cu-WAIT, NO, DON'T DO IT!"

And I do it three more times. But, I mean, it's so cute!

Anya: No, no, it's an omen. It's a higher power, trying to tell me through bunnies that we're all gonna die. Oh god.
Xander: No it's not. It's okay.
Anya: No, you see, usually when there's an apocalypse, I skedaddle. But now I love you so much that instead I have inappropriately timed sex and try to think of ways to fight a god...and worry terribly that something might happen to you. And also worry that something'll happen to me. And then I have guilt that I'm not more worried about everyone else, but I just don't have enough! I'm just on total overload, and I honestly don't think that I could be more nervous than I am right now.
Xander: Care to wager on that? (Lifts his hand into the shot to reveal a little box with a ring)
Xander: Anya...you wanna marry me? (Anya stares and then slaps him) Can I take that as a "maybe"?
Anya: You're proposing to me!
Xander: Yes...
Anya: You're proposing to me 'cause we're gonna die! And you think it's romantic and sexy and, and you know you're not gonna have to go through with it 'cause the world's gonna end!
Xander: I'm proposing to you, Anya, because it's not.
Anya: You can't know that.
Xander: I believe it. I think we're gonna get through this. I think I'm gonna live a long ... and silly life, and I'm not interested in doing that without you around.
Anya: Oh. Okay.
Xander: Okay?
Anya: Yes. I mean, yes. (Xander starts to take out the ring.) No.
Xander: No?
Anya: After. Give it to me when the world doesn't end.

Stupid XANDER...RUINING IT ALL. Season 6 was EVIL.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to watch the rest of The Gift, 'ooo' and 'aah' at how pretty it's shot, and then cry. A lot.

You know...

Mon, 28 Mar 2005 06:49:14 GMT

I'm sitting here...trying to write kind of a mini character bio for Trishy so I can get a poem from nshc for her. And I realize after 20 minutes of typing that she's just...really stupid. And very complex. And that I'm about 430 words in (my Nanoers will appreciate how large that actually kind of is) and I've JUST gotten to her falling for Hawk. Dear god. Plus I'm half-asleep, and as I read over the whole thing, it just makes me laugh.

'This character's name is Trisha Evans, and she's about 18 or 19 in this instance. She spent part of her childhood in a bandit clan, but when she was about 5 or 6, the clan was attacked and a good number of the adults killed...along with her parents, so she was left to fend for herself and her little sister. Yet not long after, her older brother found her and sold her into slavery. She spent many years there, hating every last bitter moment. She deeply resented her older brother for what he'd done, and when she came face-to-face with a girl that she thought sold the clan out to it's attacker, she attempted to murder her. Not knowing she had failed, the experience simply made her colder and more distant. It didn't help that as she grew older, she was getting sleazy looks and every day things seemed to get more and more dangerous. After a particularly bad encounter with a master and his whip, she is sold to a man by the name of Draken Casmanien. He basically treats her like no man has in years - like she's a human being, not an object. Though that is slightly unnerving, Trish slowly grows fond of him, and then just flat out falls for him. Being the idiot that she is, it takes her far too long to realize this, but once she does things are quite happy. Until she wakes up one morning, with nothing but an empty house and a note. Infuriated, Trish goes into deep denial mode and runs off to make her own way. It doesn't take her long to realize she's not quite cut out for surviving on the streets through the cold winter, and she's also found herself quite pregnant with a child that Draken knows nothing about. Trish finds refuge with two nurses, and while she's safe there, the pain of giving up her child is too much to stay. So, once again, she runs off, this time to join a gang and start a small relationship with the leader. She's barely there for a few months when one of her old friends from her clan days finds her and brings her back. For three years, Trish is happy, living among her old friends and the few family members she has left. During one of her (rather common) bouts in prison, Trish falls for the sheriff's brother (in case you haven't noticed, the girl is quick to fall for just about anything that breathes...she's quite stupid, actually...never listens to a word I say)'

Then I stopped. Because, oh my god. Even just covering to the point where William is born would take me at least 200 words. *Hits Trisha*

(*Jumps awake and slaps Maddy*)

OW.

(*Blinks* You woke me up first, idiot...it's a reflex)

Your life is too complex.

(*Raises an eyebrow*)

Go back to sleep.

(*Wanders further within Maddy's mind, so she can avoid getting randomly hit*)

Though now I have the urge to continue on and be as bitter and sarcastic as possible. *Shakes head* And you know I still don't know all the details of the Drakie leaving, so I just kind of made up the thing about the note. Did he leave a note? Or did he tell her? At all? Hmm.

I'm quite sleepy. Bed would be a nice option. Knowing me, on my last day of staying up late, I won't. I should try to do a Trisha bio made up mostly of personality parts. Gah.

-Maddy

EDIT -

Mmmkay! A character poemy is what I'm looking for, though slogans and lines are awesome. This character's name is Trisha Evans, and she's about 18 or 19 in this instance. And I had a bio...but it was very long...and made me realize how stupid my character is. Not creative wise, I don't think, no I'm sort of fond of her soap-operaness in that aspect...but she tends to fall in love with anything that breathes. And get pregnant a lot. Basically....she's a bandit by blood, but her clan was attacked when she was 5, her parents were killed, and her older brother sold her into slavery. At 15, she's bought by a man named Draken Casmanien, who basically frees her. She falls for him, until one day she wakes up and he's gone. She tries to live on the streets, but it's winter and she realizes she's pregnant. She chooses to give the little girl up for adoption, and runs with a gang before finding her old clan. The remaining members of it, at least, and the little family she has left. She spends 3 years there until she falls in love with the sheriff's brother, and plans to sneak back to the clan with him. Unfortunately, Draken has different ideas, and after all these years kind of just takes her back. While she's there, she realizes she's pregnant (Yes. Again.) and oh lookie, she can't help but fall for Drake again. When it all comes down to it, she goes for Draken...but perhaps only because the sheriff's brother becomes quite infatuated with Drake's sister.

Um, that was the shortest I could get it. The other one was about three times as long....

And, uh, yeah. I should have just done this to begin with, but personality traits! Trisha is bull-headed, and quite prideful, so she tends to think she can do anything and everything. She's not one to back down from something, even when she really does know it's stupid/bad/ect. She's very outspoken, but tends not to think before she speaks, and it often gets her into trouble. She hates being wrong, and usually doesn't give in even when she is. She's big into denial, and very rarely admits her feelings when the time is right...usually in relationships. The denial factor can also carry into things that can truly hurt her in the long run, such as being blind to things such as people who care about her, or getting played. Despite all this, she's usually very good at knowing what she's doing when it comes to returning to her bandit roots, stealing, and breaking out of jail...so, woot! She has many weaknesses, up to and including the fact that she doesn't show them. She's quite vulnerable when she gets hurt emotionally, and is known to build walls and keep her distance so it doesn't show. All of these traits thrown together make her one [i]very[/i]...stupid person. And yet, she's quite loved by many people. Where members of her immediate family has been known to betray her, she has managed to build a solid network system of friends that would do anything to help her. Not that she isn't an idiot that pretends she can do everything herself, because she is, but her friends know how to make her pay attention and she always knows they're right.

Since it's high time I posted it again....

Rawr.

EDIT - Oh, yes. And do those who don't know...that is me.

Mon, 28 Mar 2005 00:33:31 GMT

I'm such a dork...on nshc, one of the poetry staff members was talking about how she talks to herself and acts in the mirror because she can't really find real places to act. Knowing EXACTLY where she was coming from, I gave her a site with a bunch of monologues from movies, so she'd at least have random fun stuff to work with. And I was wandering the site, and realized they had one of my favorite speeches/rants EVER from a movie...

Virginia: I can't even remember the day she left, but I remember the morning after because you were trying to make me breakfast and you didn't know where anything was. I knew she'd come back because she left all her clothes. She loved them more then anything, and I kept going to her room to make sure they were there. And then after a few months, you said we had to get rid of them. I remember folding them all neatly, and I kept thinking that a note was suddenly going to flutter out of one of them, written to me, just to me, telling me how much she loved me. Explaining the special, magical reason why she had to go. I still have this uncontrollable urge to go up to people and say "my mother left me when i was seven" as though that will explain everything. I miss her and I hate her and I miss her. I feel like I was on a train and it crashed and there was no one who came to rescue me. I always wanted my life to be a fairy tale story and now it is.

Yes, so, I had to share that. But aside from that, I found monologues and the like from TV shows and movies, which was lots of fun. I have a bunch saved in a little file now...the likes of The 10th Kingdom, Quantum Leap, MST3k, You're A Good Man Charlie Brown...the latter I think I must share as well.

Charlie Brown: I think lunchtime is about the worst time of day for me. Always having to sit here alone. Of course, sometimes, mornings aren't so pleasant either. Waking up and wondering if anyone would really miss me if I never got out of bed. Then there's the night, too. Lying there and thinking about all the stupid things I've done during the day. And all those hours in between when I do all those stupid things. Well, lunchtime is among the worst times of the day for me. Well, I guess I'd better see what I've got. Peanut butter. Some psychiatrists say that people who eat peanut butter sandwiches are lonely...I guess they're right. And when you're really lonely, the peanut butter sticks to the roof of your mouth. There's that cute little red-headed girl eating her lunch over there. I wonder what she would do if I went over and asked her if I could sit and have lunch with her?...She'd probably laugh right in my face...it's hard on a face when it gets laughed in. There's an empty place next to her on the bench. There's no reason why I couldn't just go over and sit there. I could do that right now. All I have to do is stand up...I'm standing up!...I'm sitting down. I'm a coward. I'm so much of a coward, she wouldn't even think of looking at me. She hardly ever does look at me. In fact, I can't remember her ever looking at me. Why shouldn't she look at me? Is there any reason in the world why she shouldn't look at me? Is she so great, and I'm so small, that she can't spare one little moment?...SHE'S LOOKING AT ME!! SHE'S LOOKING AT ME!! (he puts his lunchbag over his head.) ...Lunchtime is among the worst times of the day for me. If that little red-headed girl is looking at me with this stupid bag over my head she must think I'm the biggest fool alive. But, if she isn't looking at me, then maybe I could take it off quickly and she'd never notice it. On the other hand...I can't tell if she's looking, until I take it off! Then again, if I never take it off I'll never have to know if she was looking or not. On the other hand...it's very hard to breathe in here. (he removes his sack) Whew! She's not looking at me! I wonder why she never looks at me? Oh well, another lunch hour over with...only 2,863 to go.

That's an AWESOME one. *Huggles it* I also have Sally's "A 'C'? A 'C'? I got a 'C' on my coathanger sculpture? How could anyone get a 'C' in coathanger sculpture?" rant and Schroeder's "You're a very crabby person." thing. Along with two Back to the Future/Doc Brown ones, Finding Nemo, Freaky Friday, oh, oh even The Princess Diaries. Not that most of them would be use for things like auditions, but I love them, and I must learn them. But then I got into this kick of turning speeches from Buffy into things that can be used for monologues, rants and general randomness. I need more, though, 'cause they're fun. So, yeah.

Buffy: I hate this. I hate being here. I hate that you have to be here. I hate that there’s evil and that I was chosen to fight it. I wish a whole lot of the time that I hadn’t been. I know a lot of you wish I hadn’t been, either. But this isn’t about wishes. This is about choices. I believe we can beat this evil. Not when it comes. Not when its army is ready. Now. Tomorrow morning I’m opening the Seal. I’m going down into the Hellmouth and I’m finishing this once and for all. Right now you’re asking yourselves what makes this different. “What makes us anything more than a bunch of girls being picked off one by one?” It’s true, none of you have the power that Faith and I do. So here’s the part where you make a choice.

Spike: The first was all business but the second, she had a touch of your style. She was cunning, resourceful... oh, did I mention? Hot. I could have danced all night with that one. And the thing about the dance is, you never get to stop. Every day you wake up, it's the same bloody question that haunts you: is today the day I die? Death is on your heels, baby, and sooner or later it's gonna catch you. And part of you wants it... not only to stop the fear and uncertainty, but because you're just a little bit in love with it. Death is your art. You make it with your hands, day after day. That final gasp. That look of peace. Part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. Every Slayer...has a death wish. Even you. The only reason you've lasted as long as you have is you've got ties to the world...your mum, your brat kid sister, the Scoobies. They all tie you here but you're just putting off the inevitable. Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second- the second- that happens...you know I'll be there. I'll slip in... have myself a real good day. Here endeth the lesson. I just wonder if you'll like it as much as she did.

Buffy: I'm beyond tired. I'm beyond scared. I'm standing on the mouth of hell, and it is gonna swallow me whole. And it'll choke on me. We're not ready? They're not ready. They think we're gonna wait for the end to come, like we always do. I'm done waiting. They want an apocalypse? Oh, we'll give 'em one. Anyone else who wants to run, do it now. 'Cause we just became an army. We just declared war. From now on, we won't just face our worst fears, we will seek them out. We will find them, and cut out their hearts one by one, until The First shows itself for what it really is. And I'll kill it myself. There is only one thing on this earth more powerful than evil, and that's us. Any questions?

Spike: Oh, no. Hold on here. I’ve hummed along to your pity ditty and I think I should have the mike for a bit. You’re insufferable. I’m not trying to cheer you up. I don’t know what I'm trying to say! I’ll know when I’m done saying it. Something pissed me off and I just...unattainable! That’s it...now you listen to me. I’ve been alive a bit longer than you and dead a lot longer than that. I’ve seen things you couldn’t imagine and done things I’d prefer you didn’t. I don’t exactly have a reputation for being a thinker. I follow my blood which doesn’t exactly rush in the direction of my brain so I make a lot of mistakes. A lot of wrong bloody calls. A hundred plus years and there’s only one thing I’ve ever been sure of. You. Hey, look at me. I’m not asking you for anything. When I say I love you, it’s not because I want you, or because I can’t have you. It has nothing to do with me. I love what you are, what you do, how you try. I’ve seen your kindness and your strength. I’ve seen the best and the worst of you and I understand with perfect clarity exactly what you are. You are a hell of a woman. You’re the one, Buffy.

Buffy: Dawn, listen to me. Listen. I love you. I will *always* love you. But this is the work that I have to do. Tell Giles...tell Giles I figured it out. And, and I'm okay. And give my love to my friends. You have to take care of them now. You have to take care of each other. You have to be strong. Dawn, the hardest thing in this world...is to live in it. Be brave. Live. For me.

Xander: I can't stop this. Yeah, I get that. It's just, where else am I gonna go? You've been my best friend my whole life. World gonna end...where else would I want to be? I know you're in pain. I can't imagine the pain you're in. And I know you're about to do something apocalyptically evil and stupid, and hey - I still want to hang. You're Willow. First day of kindergarten, you cried because you broke the yellow crayon, and you were too afraid to tell anyone. You've come pretty far, ending the world, not a terrific notion. But the thing is? Yeah. I love you. I loved crayon-breaky Willow and I love ... scary veiny Willow. So if I'm going out, it's here. If you wanna kill the world? Well, then start with me. I've earned that. It doesn't matter. I'll still love you.

The First: She won’t understand. Of course she won’t understand, Sparky. I’m beyond her understanding. She’s a girl. Sugar and spice and everything…useless. Unless you’re baking. I’m more than that. More than flesh. More than blood. I’m… you know, I honestly don’t think there’s a human word fabulous enough for me. Oh, my name will be on everyone’s lips…assuming their lips haven’t been torn off. But not just yet. That’s all right, though. I can be patient. Everything is well within parameters. She’s exactly where I want her to be. And so are you, Number 17. You’re right where you belong. So what’d you think? You’d get your soul back and everything would be Jim Dandy? A soul’s slipperier than a greased weasel. Why do you think I sold mine? (laughs) Well, you probably thought that you’d be your own man and I respect that. But you never will. You’ll always be mine. You’ll always be in the dark with me, singing our little songs. You like our little songs, don’t you? You’ve always liked them, right from the beginning. And that’s where we’re going. Right back to the beginning. Not the Bang, not the Word. The true beginning. The next few months are going to be quite a ride and I think we’re all going to learn something about ourselves in the process. You’ll learn you’re a pathetic schmuck… if it hasn’t sunk in already. Look at you. Tried to do what’s right. Just like her. You still don’t get it. It’s not about right. Not about wrong...It’s about power.

The Spike 'you're the one' speech is my least favorite, because it's a lot more expression and emotion with the Spuffy. Oh well. And I tried to make the 'Lie to Me' one work, but yeah...it hated me. Annnyways, Buffy fans! I need more! 'Cause they're fun! Even just pointing out the eppy/character would be nifty. Angel and Firefly ones would be grand as well. The L Word, Alias...annything else. I have a newfound love for rants. Yes, yes I do.

Bombalurina and Demeter are slashy Jellicle love.

Tee hee.

If, for some reason anyone on my flist uses it....

Randomly placed *'s are wonderful.

There's a slightly different colorbar, because the 'hue' tool amused me.

Yay for boredness and Cats!

Aside from that....*yawn*

Boooored

Maddy ish teh bored.

*Pokes LimeWire* Iiii like it. Haven't used it before, 'till today...it's nifty. Downloading Adobe Photoshop CS. *Hopes it's worth the 8 hours*

Ohh, everyone, if you EVER buy a Cats sountrack - make sure it's LONDON. Unless they release the soundtrack for the movie cats, London is the BEST of the ones I've heard. And hell, if the movie recording were to be cut up like it is, then still go with London. London is gorgeous. Broadway is...*twitch* Aside from The Mayor being Munkustrap, and a hotter sounding Skimble than the movie, Broadway is horrid. Well, not horrid. It's okay, and all, but Grizabella makes me cringe, Demeter is annoying, Rum Tum sounds like a bad Elvis, and Mungojerrie & Rumpleteazer is sung by, like, Misto. WTF? Plus it sounds like they all sang on stage and someone just recorded it, because everyone is obviously standing far away. It's just gah. OH, I KNOW. I'll do one of those nifty 'London vs. Broadway' but I'll throw the movie in there, 'cause I love me some movie cast.

Overture - Any of them. I prefer London to the movie, but the movie to Broadway.

Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats - Mooovie. 'Cause it's gorgeous. London over Broadway, though.

Naming of Cats - I extremely dislike this 'song.' But London, if any of them.

Invitation to the Jellicle Ball - London is different from the other two. But movie is prettiest.

Old Gumbie Cat - Awww. I can't decide. London. But they're all pretty nice, but movie is 2nd.

Rum Tum Tugger - MOVIE. ALL THE WAY. The other two frighten me. I love movie Rum Tum and Bombal.

Grizabella: The Glamour Cat - London. Oh, London. Then movie, because I love Demeter's voice in the movie. Broadway is an absolute last.

Bustopher Jones - Eh. Never been a fan of this song. But if anything, London.

Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer - Assuming it would be in it's entirety, movie. Because they're so cute...and the London would be second, but they're just reeaalllyy fast. It's still good. I hate Broadway, because damn...I think it's Misto singing. Whaaatt?

Old Deuternonomy - Finally a song I actually like on Broadway. It's generally the same no matter where one goes, since Ken Page is in both movie and OBC. I think it's a three-way tie. Nice.

The Jellicle Ball - Well, okay. When it comes to the singing section, I think it's London, movie then Broadway. When it comes to the music section, it's a London/Movie tie, with Broadway way behind. 'Cause I'm a snob.

Grizabella - OH. LONDON. Oh, god, London is like orgasmic. LOL. I swear. Movie is in 2nd, since it's still Elaine Paige. Broadway sickens me. I'm sorry, but compared to Elaine, Betty is just cringe worthy.

The Moments of Happiness - Another 'whatever' song. I think I like movie, London, Broadway, though they're interchangeable. Oh, oh, no. Stop. Broadway isn't (I'm listening as I type.) Jemima's voice is so depressingly not as pretty as the rest of the Jemima's. Poor Broadway.

Gus: The Theatre Cat - Okay, finally movie is completely despised. I hated that they didn't bring in a real singer/actor for Gus, and the movie Jellylorum isn't loved by Maddy. I've loved London forever, but Broadway is pretty. I think I like the London Gus more, 'cause B-way Gus sounds like the Cowardly Lion.

Growltiger's Last Stand - As far as music goes, I'm gonna say London. And so far, it's London for voices. I dunno. They're both nice, London and B-way. I'm not a huge fan of the song. I need to see it performed to appreciate it, I think. But I don't like this Growltiger/Gus. Garh, can Broadway do ANYTHING right? Griddlebone is pretty, though.

Ballad of Billy McCaw - London. Certainly London, since it's so pretty.

Skimbleshanks: The Railway Cat - *EXPLODES* LONDON. LONDON. OMG. LONDON. LONDON. London here is orgasmic. I have a HUGE crush on Skimbleshanks because of London. I would make out to this Skimble. Nothing can be better than London Skimble, NO ONE. I mean, I love all Skimbles, and Broadway finally completely prevails over movie, but oh my god. LONDON SKIMBLE. *dies from overload of Skimble love*

(*Looks worriedly over Maddy* Um...yeah...everyone disregard that...I think she's had a little too much caffeine...and listened to that record one too many times today. Let's just pretend she said 'London is way better than Broadway, which is better than the movie,' okay? 'Cause I fear she won't remember she actually said this. *Wanders off to find Morca*)

((You think I can bring her back? That's Dria's deal))

(Then ask her...she's your girlfriend.)

((I think she's sick of resurrecting the muses. It's, like, the third time she'll have to fix Maddy this week.))

(Then just find Lisha's book. That has to have something in there.))

((*Wanders off. Returns with The Book* Hmm....hmmmmmmm....oh, look, there's even one to switch back 'Death from Obsession Overload.' Isn't that thoughtful. *Reads and snaps fingers.))

(*Pets Maddy and sends her back to the keyboard*)

Macavity: The Mystery Cat - Uuhhh....oh, oh, right. This is where I feel really bad for saying movie is better than London. I think it might just possibly make tie. I ADORE movie Demeter and Bombalurina, so them together is so awesome. But the record is just COOL, and dad and I sing along all the time. I like Broadway Bombal well enough, she's got this singing-the-shouting-parts that is cool, but I dislike OBC Demeter mostly.

Mr. Mistoffelees - Movie/London tie. Depends on my mood. I like the movie Rum Tum ever so, but I also like the London version. Broadway also isn't too bad, though Misto singing about himself is a little odd. An overall pretty hard to ruin song.

Memory - Oh. My. God. HOW IN THE WORLD...can anyone think that Betty Buckley is a better Grizabella than ELAINE PAIGE?! Betty is great, don't get me wrong, but her voice does that wavey thing so much that she sounds like a goat. The 'eeee' thing doesn't help. She has a fuller voice, but Elaine's is so strong that you can't notice the very slight airyness that she carries. The MOVIE prevails over Broadway, even though Elaine is 20 years older. Plus the Jemima in the OLC and movie is prettier than the OBC one. And, okay. Dad decided to blast Cats for a while, because his sound system could kick your sound system's ass. I closed all the doors in the room and sat square between the speakers and just...oohhh. During Memory, I could feel the vibrations running through me. And the whole time I have slight goosebumps...but at the point of 'Burnt out ends of smokey days' I get a wave of chills...then another, then another...then the music builds and Elaine sings and it just all EXPLODES and I actually just shivered outright. Broadway couldn't do that to me, it doesn't even TRY. I don't know, I just can't imagine anyone being a better Griza than Elaine.

The Journey to the Heaviside Layer - Eh, any of them. They're all nice. Yay, finally a real threeway tie.

The Ad-dressing of Cats - I'm not the biggest fan of this song, I think the finale should have been better...but London. Yesh.

TOUCH ME
IT'S SO EASY TO LEAVE ME
ALL ALONE WITH MY MEMORY
Of my days in the sun...
If you touch me
You'll understand what happiness is
Look...
A new day...has begun....

*Clings to Griza*

Yeesshhh....that took me forever...

Oh, oh, HAH. Weirdest thing happened to me today. I was at the dentists office (I have three cavaties...between my teeth. Ugh, me.) and I was reading my Buffy quotes book, and I think I giggled as my dentist walked in (quote was "That'll put the marzipan in your pie plate, Bingo!") and he asked me what I was reading, so I held it up. He goes "Ohh, neat. You know, my nephew was in about 15 episodes of that." And I all perk up, but I'm thinking he was an extra or something...no..."Really?" "Yeah, he played a doctor, who would change into-" "BEN!?!" "Yes!"

-_-

My dentist's nephew is the actor who played Ben. That's just GREATLY RANDOM. So I get an autograph eventually. And all the nurse-type girls were Buffy fans, so we got to talk about Ben and how Giles killed him. Yessum, it made my day.

What else...oh, I rented Kissing Jessica Stein for three seconds of Idina, Mask of Zorro for the yumminess that is Antonio, and HEHE...Pinata: Survival Island or something like that. It looks like an absolute b-movie...the only reason I looked at it was because it had a cover that changed as you went by, and I'm all 'Oooh, shiny!' And as I'm looking at it, the guy on the cover looked SO familiar...then I see 'Nicholas Brendan' above him. Oh, yes. I had to watch it. *Giggles*

And I saw Scot today. Yay. I've missed him. CARRIE IS HAVING A BABY. OMG. That child is going to kick major butt. It's going to be a Buffy-watching, TWOP-reading, snarky-queen of a girl. Well, they don't know what it's gonna be yet, but I want it to be a girl. So does Carrie, so, yay. I've never met Carrie, but she's AWESOME. And the baby is due around the end of September/Early October. How FUN would it be if it were born September 30th?

So, yes. I'm having a funnish day.

Ooohhh...

Misto tilting his head from side to side? (As in what he does during...'Metaphorical cats, statistical cats)

That is smex right there.

And I can't stand to think of my Cats as humans. Munkustrap held up one finger and they zoomed in and I yelled "BUT HE DOESN'T HAVE FINGERS! He has PAWS!"

Yeah.

Obsessed.

Heh! I just remembered the WEIRD stuff we do on dress out days during gym...I swear I laughed so hard I was about to implode...

Hanananah and I have gotten into the swing of prank calling people during lunch. We've left random messages on her sister's phone, as well as her dad's. Just random stuff to pass the time. We've tried to do Cassie and Hannah L., but it never works out.

Today? Oh god, we took it up a notch. We dialed random numbers. The first two didn't work, but when we dialed a '449' number, it started ringing, and we gave it to Sarah, who said 'Is Tom there?' then hung up. Yeah. Then Hanaaaahhhh called him in the locker room and said "Hiiii *snort* is TOOMMMMMM there?' and the guy replied with 'Is WHO there?' and she freaked and hung up. Bunch of chickens, we are. But, well...

We sat out during gym...Hanananah, Hanaaahh, Pondooper (Jaime Ponder-Cooper) and me...and Jaime was ALL about calling this guy, whom we had pet-named 'Tom' at that point. So, of course, she did. And when he picked up, this conversation basically took place (not EXACTLY what he said, because we can only get what she told us)

Guy/Tom: Hello?
Jaime: Hi! Who is this?
Guy/Tom: Um....Matt.
Jaime: Oh. This is Ma.....Jaime.
Matt: Hey.
Jaime: Hey! *Beat* How old are you?
Matt: 23
Jaime: I have a friend that's 23!
Matt: Cool.
Jaime: *Pause while we feed her stuff to say* My boyfriend just broke up with me, and I'm all bummed out...
Matt: Ohhh...that's not cool...I'm...sorry?
Jaime: Thaanks! Well, it's been fun talking to you!
Matt: You too...call me again sometime.
Jaime: Okay! *Hangs up*

At that point we were all crying just because...I don't know. She hit it off with some guy she prank called. THEN she decided to call back with something she thought of...

Matt: Hey?
Jaime: Hi, Matt, it's Jaime!
Matt: Oh, hi.
Jaime: I need to ask you a question
Matt: Okay
Jaime: My ex just called me, and he asked me out again...should I do it?
Matt: Noooooo! Not if he just broke up with you!
Jaime: Okay...thanks for the advice!
Matt: Anytime. Bye!
Jaime: Bye!

Some people don't like Pondooper....I'm quite fond of her at this point. ^_^ So, yeah, Matt is on Hanananah's cell phone and Jaime's speed dial. She plans to call him on Tuesday when we get back to school. This is like, worse than meeting people on the internet...but it's FUNNY. And he sounds hot. And all of us want to talk to him. Sooo, yay!

Lunch at school: $1.75
A five minute cell phone call: $2
Befriending the guy you prank called: Priceless.
