So... this is not my favorite song or quote, but they're my favorite lyrics of the moment. Have you gotten tired of me talking about how amazing Rizzle Kicks are?! I love their rhymes and their sound and their style. THEY ARE SO FUCKING CLEVER.

i'm last on the heaven list
'cause i couldn't give a rass what angelic is
even my laughter is venomous
denis is not even half what this menace is

          -- "Prophet (Better Watch It)" by Rizzle Kicks


Wow, just realized I misspelled "venomous" when I wrote it. #FAIL

List of all days.

Spencer was the boy at the drums with the gorgeous smile who could lay out a joke so dry it wasn't funny until Ryan laughed.

This description from Anywhere You Let It Go by [livejournal.com profile] skoosiepants has been stuck in my mind since I read it earlier this week; I just can't stop thinking about it. Anyway, if you haven't read any of her fic (which you probably have since it's like four years old by now), just go and read it all. Because it's all insanely quirky and amazing. And I now know more about fanon!MCR and fanon!Cobra Starship than I ever thought I would. Everyone in bandom is clearly nuts. =D

In other news, I have been a hermit this whole week, have barely talked to anyone, and it's sort of freaking me out but I can't seem to do a whole lot to fix it. =/

ETA: Oh yeah, Liz and Juliet found an apartment in Woodside, right off the 7 train, so even though it's not suuuuper easy to get to, they're going to be pretty close and it will all be theoretically awesome! Technically, there IS a bus, at least, that goes pretty closely between our places, so there's a plus.

WHILE I WAS FUCKING ASLEEP, GODDAMMIT. What's funny is that Brendon's tweet actually woke me up.... but I thought either I was dreaming or that he clearly didn't mean what I thought he meant and I went back to sleep. WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.

....so then I thought maybe I should put those HALF-NAKED!BRENDON URIE pics behind a cut.... )

ALL I'M SAYING IS THAT MY EXPECTATIONS FOR THE CENTRAL PARK SHOW IN SEPTEMBER ARE HIGHER THAN EVER BEFORE OKAY.

ETA: I don't think there's actually any way I could possibly love Spencer Smith more (NSFW).

...well. Maybe if he got some tattoos.

Okay guys, I know it's late, but I was super busy and didn't have time for thinking (and I forgot to check dreamwidth 'cause I'm on lj more than dw) and now I realize IT'S ONLY A MONTH AWAY and I'm trying not to panic.

I don't have accommodations yet for the Toronto trip, and I need to make them ASAP, but I'd prefer to room with a few people to bring costs down. I'm driving up with my friend Juliet so we need space for two (and we're fine sharing a bed). Does anyone have a room they'd like to share with us? I'm totally fine being the one to make the reservation if you don't already have one!

This also means that I'll be able to drive another couple of people around Toronto, and to/from the show/airport/etc.

I plan to arrive on Friday, probably mid-day, and leave on Sunday, maybe late, or I could be convinced to leave Monday, maybe....

[livejournal.com profile] spuffyduds, [livejournal.com profile] akamine_chan, [livejournal.com profile] lucifuge_5, [livejournal.com profile] meresy, [livejournal.com profile] thursdaynext_27, [livejournal.com profile] andeincascade... I know you guys are going! (YAYYY!) But I don't know if you already have plans? And I don't know a bunch of the other people going, but I love making new friends! So if you can pass along my request to anyone who might be interested, I'd appreciate it. I posted a comment here on dreamwidth, so anyone can reply there as well.

because [livejournal.com profile] idreamedmusic went and found a link for streaming shattered and I STILL CAN'T WATCH IT BECAUSE MY LAPTOP JUST DIED.

WTF, UNIVERSE!!!!! WHY DO YOU HATE ME SO?!

so I'll be on my phone all weekend while at dragon*con and then I dunno what I'm going to do about the laptop but basically--

tl;dr NO SHATTERED FOR ME IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE.

FUUUUUUUCK.

ETA: and since i was thinking i might try to work on fucking fic on the plane (not that that's going to happen now), the only things that might make me feel better are updates on THE MUSIC-MAKERS from [livejournal.com profile] mami_san and/or MORE HERPESCOUCH!FIC from [livejournal.com profile] zarathuse.

Please read [livejournal.com profile] bookshop's post about a fantasy book and why changing its cover is that sort of insidious institutionalized racism/bias that I hope people can work to become more aware of, and protest/counteract.

http://bookshop.livejournal.com/1056528.html

Oddly enough, it's almost exactly the same situation as what's going on with Avatar: The Last Airbender. Funny, that.

For a great post about the racism in Avatar, please read: http://splinterend.tumblr.com/post/749364670/facepainting

So my alarm clock went off at the normal time this morning -- around 6:30am.
It takes a while for me to hear it, but when I do, I start trying to press the snooze button. It just. will. not. shut the fuck. off. I press the snooze button, I press other buttons. I press two buttons at the same time. I hold down one button and press some of the others. Any button. Every fucking button. Just shut the fuck up and let me sleep.

Oh yeah.

It's my cell phone alarm that rings. Not my alarm clock.

Just like always.

So I realize that it's my cell phone that's ringing and I press the snooze and go back to sleep.

I wake up abruptly, look at the clock ANDOMGWTFIT'S10:15!!! I'm massively late for work; I haven't even called in late, and WTF happened to Judy and Maryann?! Did we ALL oversleep?! I jump out of bed, open my door, run toward their rooms-- and pause in the middle of the living room.

Wait a second. It really doesn't feel like 10:15. The light is too grey; it's too low in the sky. It's too quiet outside. I glance at the cable box.

7:15.

HAHAHAHAHA! Good one, Sara -- with all that pressing of buttons I managed to reset my clock to THREE HOURS LATER. IN MY SLEEP!


True story, people. x_X;

Obviously, I need to change my cell phone alarm ringtone. Because it's just not doing the job. I thought I'd get used to it, but it's been 2.5 months now, and it's obviously not working.

So my friend Raquel was going to go with me on a road trip this weekend. We'd finally agreed on where to go --

  • pick up a rental car in Philly [Sat/2hrs]
  • drive to Mill Run, PA, (where there's a 1.5 mile grounds tour at Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater) [Sat/5hrs]
  • drive to Pittsburgh to stay for the night [Sat/1hr]
  • drive to Erie, PA to stay for the night [Sun/2hrs]
  • drive back to Philly to return the car [Mon/7hrs]
  • bus back to NYC [Mon/2hrs]


I'm terribly disappointed, but she had to cancel as she's looking for an apartment right now and the place she and her roommate thought they had secured, fell through. =(

So now it's all up in the air again. I really wanted to take advantage of the fact that the 3-day weekend coincided with my birthday weekend -- to do something. Something different.

Still, I know that I'll have fun at Vic's BBQ on Saturday. And then I plan to do some driving over Sunday/Monday. I've been thinking about Balticon in Baltimore for the one day. See what it's like.

Or maybe I should just go get a tattoo or piercing? This could be a better use of the funds I would have spent.

Boo. I hate being this indecisive.

Also, I feel like mostly I'm just feeling SUPER-restless in contrast to the last several months of doing stuff every single weekend. ARGH FRUSTRATION.
