So, I am now in love with "Kids in the Hall". Dave is my favorite. In fact, I have now also watched the first 3 seasons of "News Radio". It's all Dave's fault. So here's a little doodle of 4 of Dave's female characters. Thanks a lot Dave.
In a fit of excitement over Ringo's appearance on Jimmy Fallon (promoting his new album), I did a picture of Ringo from Yellow Submarine. He's thinking of Jeremy. He gave him a hole, you know. Well, half a hole, anyway.
And then in even more of a fit of excitement, (and courtesy of a large Ringo appreciation post over at ONTD_Beatles and a conversation that went down) I did another comic. Ringo used to have a beard, you know. True facts. He was pretty badass. He had to be. Lots of gangs.
You know how I said that I was doing NaNo? Well, my losing streak goes on! It's still unwritten. It's a pretty interesting story, too. A lot of my stories seem to be unfinished. I should really get on top of that. I'm kind of tired of my Haunted Mansion fic not being done. I think I'm gonna finish that. If not for the (small number of) reader's sake, then for my own
Still no job. I applied, but no one has called. I might have a job with the census. They've yet to start, so I don't know. Probably soon.
I'm going to go scrounge up something to eat.

I recently watched the SyFy (still hate the name change) miniseries/tv movie “Alice”. ( I found it enjoyable... )
And I think that’s nearly enough tl;dr for now. Feel free to argue with me on any point I made! For one last word, just for thought, let’s go to “Through the Looking Glass”…
In a Wonderland they lie,
Dreaming as the days go by,
Dreaming as the summers die:
Ever drifting down the stream--
Lingering in the golden gleam--
Life, what is but a dream?

After eating, we did our usual Thanksgiving tradition. We went and saw a movie! My parents wanted to see "Old Dogs", so that's what we saw. It wasn't nearly as bad as the critics made it out to be. Now, I'm not saying it was good. It just wasn't a travesty. A lot of random actors have small scenes in the movie, weirdly enough. However, I am probably the only person in the theater who managed to spot Amy Sedaris (or even know who she is). She had pretty much one line and you couldn't even really see her. She was standing on a balcony at night in that scene. I recognized her voice. It helps that I was watching "Strangers With Candy" last night.
And now I'm sick. My throat was a little bit sore this morning when I was taking a shower, but I just waved it away as nothing. Now, 12 hours later, it's annoyingly painful. I am super tired and it hurts to swallow. Ugh. None of the stores are open, either, so I'm going to have to wait until tomorrow to get some medicine. Being sick totally blows.
All in all, an uneventful and nice Thanksgiving.

It was crazy for a few reasons. Firstly, I suck at drawing, especially since I only have a mouse. Nextly, I haven't done very many pixel drawings before. My last major one was of The Haunted Mansion facade from Disneyland. (Obviously, doing a building and doing a person are two completely different things.) Lastly, there was no way in hell that it was going to be done by Halloween to be a Halloween project.
Well, that crazy part of my brain took advantage of my jobless, carless state-of-being. So after many hours of listening to random music on my brand spanking new (which I totally found and which was never reclaimed by its previous owner) iPod. And here is the result!
I proved my previous points true. Well, except for the drawing part. I did that surprisingly well, even if there are flaws. Buildings are completely different than people. Buildings have lots of straight lines and they're neat and clean. People suck. They're all curvy and a pain in the butt to shade. Which I suck at. The clothing is decent enough, but I'm not particularly happy with the shading. Except for his face. I really like how his face turned out.
So that's that. It's done and I never have to look at it again. Huzzah! Until the next time my brain wants to be creative. Hopefully I will be employed and I can tell it "No". My eyesight is bad enough. I don't need more eyestrain....

There was just something extremely fun about watching a psychic-super-power-wielding George Clooney traipsing around with a bemused-but-curious Ewan McGregor. In fact, the fun-ness of it is totally screwing with my NaNo.
I finally thought of a coherent plot for my NaNo a few days ago and even started it. But now I totally want to trash it and go into TMWSaG fanfiction territory. It ended at such a great point to expand from! I don't know. Now I have a dilemma. DILEMMA!
I'm just afraid that if I don't go the fanfiction route now, I'll never get myself to go that route for TMWSaG. Damn my wandering enthusiasm.
I'll figure it out. I just need to get to it. I keep distracting myself with "Drake & Josh" fanfiction (which I just found, omg it's amazing), the WIP pixel art of the Hatbox Ghost that I'm doing, and listening to episodes of "The Bugle" (which I just found, omg it's amazing).
I don't know. I'll figure it out somehow.
P.S. I applied for a few jobs and hopefully someone will call me. Pleeease? I can't stand sitting at home anymore!

I listened to some of the OST for the 2003 version of Peter Pan. So there I was, sitting in my bed (since my brother stole my desk) with my laptop, almost bawling my eyes out at the end of the song "Fairy Dance". And believe me, I'm NOT a cryer. I very rarely cry at anything.
I've made up my mind. That's it, I'm fed up, I'm doing it. No more skirting around the issue!
I'm going to look into some classes at one of the community colleges! I'm not going to let my parents walk all over my choices anymore. I'm taking a proper hold of where my future is going. I managed to totally screw it up once and I'm only 19. Not again. I can't stand watching everyone around me heading for their futures while I sit here like an idiot. No more. I started out writing this with the mood set as confused. Now it's determined.

Finally got to go see 500 Days of Summer. Zooey Deschanel is very pretty, but there's just something about her characters that I don't like. It might be their "quirk" or flighty qualities. I don't know. She did a good job though. So did Joseph Gordon-Levitt. I do have to say, though, that PLENTY of people regard Ringo as their favorite Beatle. He's definitely in a tie with Paul for my favorite. And Octopus's Garden?

I'm sooooo horribly lazy and I haven't posted on my personal LJ in a while. But all is well! I will try to start being more active now that school is over and I officially have nothing to do until School starts again in August!
I just wanted to do this real fast before I forgot:
YAAAAAAAAYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What does it mean? I dunno. But I'm still happy!
Other titles that they were considering:
-The Lost City of Gold
-The City of Gods
-The Fourth Corner of the World
-The Quest for the Covenent
I am now more convinced than ever that it's about the Ark. Why else would they bring Marian Ravenwood back? (Other than the fact that she was the best of the three girls. And her character didn't die.) Dude, it's so about the Ark.
It comes out on May 22, 2008. That's the day I graduate!! Yay! Bad news: If I want to see it at midnight, I'm going to have to make sure I make it to graduation on time. It's usually in the morning. Oh well. I don't care! MAY 22! WHOO HOO!

Rating: At the present? This chapter is a G. No worries here!
Pairing: If you wear slash tinted glasses, you'll see Meckett and Sparrington sticking out like sore thumbs.
Warnings: Nothing yet! (Well, hints of slashiness if you need a warning for that.)
Summary: In a world where blood thirsty pirates get second chances, isn't it natural to assume that good and law abiding men should too?

Yay! I'm back!
Well, me and my mom went and saw Becoming Jane over the weekend and the character Lucy was swooning over Tom LeFroy because as she put it: "He has a green velvet coat! Very fashionable!" Typical me, my first thought is of Beckett and his gorgeous green velvet coat. And voila! Out came 4 different wallpapers using the lovely pic of Beckett that I adore. (And I threw in one other, just for kicks.)
I won't bore ya'll with the niceties on taking speech, you all know them already. Enjoy the wallpapers! (So it isn't too ginormous of a post, I'll just put the links.)
Here's one with just Beckett.
Here's one with Beckett and his name on the bottom.
Here's one with Beckett, his name, a quote, and a :D smily.
Here's one identical to the one above, just without the smily.
And lastly, here's one with Beckett at his desk and a quote-ish type thing. I don't know, they're words.

Overall, the movie was AWESOME. It was definitely the best of the series so far! Very much fun. And I think I now prefer the midnight showings over the boring old regular showings. The crowds more fun and devoted!
Now I'm going to go see it again with my parents. Yay! (Oh, and Julie… errrr, somehow I still have your encyclopedia. So hopefully you won't have to look up zygote any time soon.)

Rating: PG-13, entirely for a small bit of ungraphic m/m snogging
Pairing(s)/character(s): Remus/Severus, various triangles (or are they squares? maybe even pentagons....)
Summary: Remus and Severus share a moment together until a person or two burst into the room....
Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter, obviously. I only write these things to make my heart happy inside!
Warnings: It's very crackish. Try not to take it too seriously. And there's a bit of light, ungraphic m/m kissing.
Notes: The word count is 454. I wrote this a while ago and I finally posted it over in the snape_lupin comm. I have yet to see any reviews....
Don't worry, my one or two readers! I will continue my movie reviews as soon as I can! I even think I'll start working on a story I've had brewing in my head for a year and a half....
