Mum got me up much too early for the Thrift store excursion we've been planning all break. Hour's drive well worth it though - three of the seven things I bought still had the store tags on them, and I'm really looking forward to wearing those chunky Calvin Klein cords.

They said movie quotes. We use fanfic lines even more often. And other people's wit and wisdom even moreso. With that, let's begin on this note: It's all good.

1. Suck on that. Suck it long, and suck it hard.
2. Morbid, maudlin, mawkish, masochistic, mm, mm, mm. Mmm. More champagne.
Pretty much all of Champagne Wishes.
3. Nothing to see here people, move it along.
4. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!
5. Inconceivable! / As you wish. / He's not all dead, he's mostly dead.
7. You are not a beautiful and unique snowflake. / I am Jack's broken heart.
8. The song is not about horses.
9. Go on. Make my day. / I'll be back.
10. There is no spoon.
11. It's our only hope!
12. If you build it, they will come.
13. Shaken, not stirred.
14. Occasionally, I'm callous and strange.

More often though, I have a tendency to run with something other people say. Like a certain enunciation of 'business' sent me into a Beck verse about freaks flocking together last night. Or I'll recontextualize a known phrase by strategically applying suprasegmentals. Or someone will inadvertently say the first part of a quote and I'll finish it and inevitably, it'll be too obscure or random and that's that. We burst into song an awful lot, too.

New favorite toy: playMASH.com
My Celebrity Edition future, as they tell it by my favorite number, 18:

You will live in an Apartment.
You will drive a Dark Blue Ferrari Modena 360.
You will marry Lance Bass and have 3 kids.
You will be a magazine staff writer in Las Vegas.


From their html to the TPTB's ears.

My Real World future, as they tell it by my magic number, 3:

You will live in an Apartment.
You will drive a Red Mazda Miata.
You will marry [the boy formerly known as he-who-shall-not-be-named] and have 0 kids.
You will be a magazine writer in London.


I am sad. And sadly predictable. Stupid me.

And this, because oh GOD did I laugh heartily for its duration. Good thing I was out of Gatorade by this point of my afternoon. In order of belly-clutching outbursts:

Expandtoo fucking funny for words )

Uhm, I kinda ended up quoting pretty much the whole thing, but it's called The NSync Coming-Out Extravaganza and it's by Katie and y'all, she's the most cracked-out alright chick in my book.

Speaking of: Miranda, your link: the end is the beginning by Julad. Likely? No. Plausible? Yes. Heartbreaking? I was inconsolable for the day afterward. Read anyway.

Apparently, The Vines have taken on Outkast's Ms. Jackson. This must be heard.

New meme! For each of your fandoms, and without reusing anyone if possible, who was the character you most:

Identified with?
BTVS: Spike
QAF: Michael
SV: Lex
*Nslash: Lance
(tragic hero theme, anyone?)

Lusted over?
BTVS: the Chaos demon! no, Spike you silly nit. And Xander, heartily.
QAF: Brian. My god, that man.
SV: Lex, no contest.
*Nslash: Lance
(this probably says more about my ego than sexual preferences, though)

Hated or were thoroughly annoyed by?
BTVS: Dawn, though I tentatively pose that she seems to be getting it together...
QAF: Lindsey needs to do something other than nag Melanie and nurse her Brian crush.
SV: Pete until he got a role other than Exposition Fairy
*Nslash: I hold no small amount of volatile emotion for Wade, but it's not entirely his fault. This may all change after I actually see Making the Tour which by all accounts should paint him more evil than the antichrist.

Adored in a platonic sense?
BTVS: Willow
QAF: Emmett
SV: Chloe
*Nslash: JC. My adoration may have expanded to have many facets, but knows no bounds it seems.

Robin Williams is an intensely funny, funny man. Catch his HBO special, but don't have anything breakable or consumable nearby for the hour and a half. Lord have mercy.

I have L'Oreal Preference #4a Haircolor now. Well, mostly in any event - somehow, even when I go darker, the dyes manage to bring out red undertones. Eh. It's pretty cool, anyhow.

I'm sad to see this break end. I'm excited about Acting for NonMajors, my first class (read: 4:05 p.m.) on Monday afternoon. Economics not so much, but Journalists have to be versatile in their knowledgeability. I could've used another week of break, but such is life. I'm looking forward to getting back into my routine, to having my own (really cool) place versus non-voluntarily slumming on my parents' sofa, and Gainesville in general, if you can believe it. Having to drive a minimum of half an hour to get anywhere in this town gets tiresome right quick when we're used to our longest trek being ten minutes to the movie theater.

Anything at all to break the silence though?

Frisbee, which is actually more poignant when read *before* its sequel, End of the Beginning. I just. I'm. walking open wound, trophy display of bruises pretty much says it all.

And this night started out so happily! With The Cure and the happy Bassez and isn't Just Like Heaven such a JC-inspired song? Sigh. You can't choose when you get your heart broken though.


Well I'm not laughing, you're not leaving, who do I think I am kidding when I'm the only one left in the scene?
