Nothing else matters ...

I've been sitting here with the update journal page open for the last half hour and somehow *somehow* I got sucked into checking out all the Doctor Who/David Tennant sites I've been bookmarking ... is it a sign of complete obsession when one ignores the things that give them pleasure (such as updating one's journal) in favor of looking at/reading about/drooling over sexy aliens who live in a blue box? Don't answer that.

Now for some rambling and a general sense of disjointedness (is that a word?) -

Cobra Commander is a little bit creepy and he sounds like one of the Transformers. What? Cole's watching some GI Joe thing on TV and I watch too many cartoons.

I'm extremely tempted to join in on oxoniensis's porn battle. Except that I don't so much want to write porn as just write weird pairings with an odd prompt. I can do that. I can!

Bwahahahaha! A comparision of Doctor Who's Tenth Doctor and Firefly's Malcolm Reynolds. Brilliant! And it makes me love the two of them just a little bit more than I already do!

I have two fanvids that are mostly completed (and the Ben 10 one that Cole and I did complete!) and I think I really need to get them finished or just put them up for public consumption. How, as a creator of all things fannish, does one know when their creation is DONE?!?! When does the obsessive need to finish tweaking end? WHEN?!?!?!?!
OMG! I think I just turned into George Lucas. When and/or if I ever decide to insert Dewbacks into my previously completed works somebody needs to thwack me upside the head. Seriously.

I'm going to visit jenahville tomorrow. Woot!

I think I'm ready to make some icccccoooooonnnnnnnns. Yes, yes. My precious.
Later!

Last night Cole told me (and this is a direct quote) that he couldn't find his gorram paper. I told him that I didn't know where his gorram paper was. We went back and forth for a bit and than he asked what "gorram" meant. I told his it meant "dang". That's close, isn't it?

Hey! Sci-Fi Friday starts in a few. Woot!
I'm off!

I feel ... bad. Really bad. I don't like it and think I'm going to crawl into bed with a couple eps of Firefly and/or Serenity and a big cup of tea.
Out.

Today? Much better than yesterday. Although the Christmas tree was still by the ATM when I left work last night it was gone by the time I arrived this morning. And that's the way it should work. I want things gone and they just go away. Heh.

I'm still trying to figure out when I can take my remaining two weeks of vacation. Dammit. I'm reaching critical mass and will have to take it soon or EXPLODE! Squish.

Cole made me play a couple of levels of BattleFront 2 last night. I suck. I can't coordinate my fingers to move both the character and the camera at the same time. Basically, I end up shooting at the ground more often then not. Cole was a good sport about it and told me that I did a really good job. Yeah.

We capped off our evening by watching the first hour or so of Serenity. Good movie. Then Cole fell asleep and I watched Supernatural. Decent ep, but it didn't quite go where I thought it would go. I was having some weird/bizarre/uber-cool dreams last night. I'm pretty sure that the crew of both BSG and Firefly made an appearance. I know! Weird.

Time to get back to work.

Does it bug anyone else when the memory function goes all kooky? Like, I'll be happily reading my *ahem* memoried Firefly fanfic (all G-rated, all the time ... I swear!) and it'll just stop working. Even though it was working a minute ago. Annoying! It also annoys me when Cole asks for something to eat at 8 at night. Can't he eat earlier? I swear that boy has a tapeworm or something.

Speaking of my darling boy, I kept him home from school today. Cole, who normally pops out of bed with me in the morning, could not get up. I left him home with my sis, went and opened the branch and came home to try to sleep more myself. Btw, my hair must have been wet when I climbed into bed for my 9:30 (am) nap because it was sticking up something fierce when I crawled out an hour or so later. Even I had to laugh at myself. Oh, and I figured that Cole had what I had over the weekend, but now I'm not so sure because he seemed a lot perkier in the afternoon than anyone has the right to.

Where was I going with this?

Oh, yeah. Basically, I did nothing today. I watched the FF episode Our Mrs Reynolds because my next story is going to have the lovely Saffron in it and I had to do some homework. Yeah, life is so tough. I also watched Into the Blue earlier. Umm ... Paul Walker and Jessica Alba are hot. And all of a sudden someone was dead but I wasn't paying all that much attention to the part leading up to it and I was all "huh?". The movie? Not half bad. Not great by any stretch of the imagination, but not so bad I was cowering under my blankets waiting for it to end.

On that note, tomorrow I have to work like a normal girl. Boo.

I wish I could say that the reason I've been gone for a few days is because I'm such the party animal that I spent the entire New Year's weekend rockin' out, but it just wouldn't be true. Let me see ... I spent time with jenahville and debalita on New Year's Eve. I watched a lot of movies on New Year's. I been reading large amounts of River/Jayne *ahem* porn fic today. I keep telling myeslf to stop reading the *ahem* porn lovely stories, but I just can't stop! I need to update my movies at Soulswallo. However, I can't do that NOW because the fam is leaving for Phil's birthday in a bit. And I was obviously busy earlier reading the completely G-rated fic.

I suck at managing my time.
Later.

One of Cole's friends from school came over today because, well, there's no school. Originally he was going to stay the whole day but his aunt wants to pick him up before noon to go downtown and watch the parade... Ooh! Return of the King is on! Anyway. I don't know what Cole and I will do for the rest of the day. Maybe I can talk him into shopping. Yeah, right.

I've been sitting at the computer for an hour, thinking that I'd update some of my sites. Yeah. Like I said ... I've been sitting here for an hour. Nothing's been done, although I did put a lot of thought into the thinking portion of our show. I mean, what? The point of all this? I put a new layout up at Bay 12 last night and added a couple of icons. Now I'd like to reorganize some of the icon catagories but it seems like a lot of work and I'm lazy.

So, here are the icons I made last night.

1. 2. 3.
( I make sets. Can you tell? )

Wow. I just got completely sucked into RotK. I'm so weak-willed.
I'm off.

One more thought on ( Serenity )

Thoughts on ( Supernatural )

And now some stories about Cole. His newest favorite song is Caring is Creepy by The Shins off the Garden State soundtrack. Hee. He's always asking to listen to that one in the car. One day he told me that he was mad at me because he kept getting Remy Zero's Save Me stuck in his head. You know what one I'm talking about ... the Smallville theme song. Somebody saaaaavvvvve me. Ha! I immediately start singing it and Cole glares at me. Am I evil or what?

Lost and Veronica Mars tonight! Whoo-hoo!

Oh.Dear.God. I just played some stupid computer game for 2 hours. I think my brain is fried. I finally forced myself to stop by reminding myself that (a) I didn't journal yesterday due to the good-bye dinner I went to for one of my tellers and (b) Lost is on in an hour and I have to do things before then. Like brush my teeth and make sure Cole finished his homework. Why-oh-why do I get sucked into things like that? *gives computer the evil eye* *quickly takes it back so that computer does not blow up*

My brain hurts now.

jenahna, I'm not implying anything here, but I don't think anyone will be home this weekend. We could watch movies very loudly. kimbrchick? Up for it? We could have a mini-Firefly marathon (aka a Firefly-a-thon). Or I could rustle up something else to watch. I have popcorn! And ... and ... chicken. We could feast. Or something. Jenn, I'll call you tomorrow. Except that I only have your home number (stupid broken cell phone) so I'll actually call you tomorrow night. I know that Cole wants to see Alex. Ladies! We could have a ball!

Okay. I'm off to see the wizard. Or something.

PS - I've almost finished another SGA fic. However, this one is not naughty. I wonder if I could fix that.

I think I need some Firefly icons. I need them. It's an addiction. kimbrchick, have you started watching yet? Are you hooked? Btw, I'll do the movie meme you tagged me for soon. I just have to count up how many movies I have. Hee!
Firefly icons! Dammit.
I only have two eps left in my marathon. That makes me sad. Because it's a truly beautifully written show. Truly. Plus, I like all the damn characters. All of them. How often does that happen? For some reason I think Jayne and River would be hot together. Is that wrong?
Time to start working.
