Monday Soup
Just in from the Memory Files -- Peggy Sue wore Jellies, had a light-brown to dark blond pony tail most of the time, and hugged me a lot. Still no idea just how I met her, or what we were doing. Just flashes -- I think we went to the lake, so probably a church outing of some sort.

The hubby is back in NOLA, and I miss him. Paid bills today without having to fight that feeling of crushing despair with which I had become so familiar. Called and had our home phone and cable cut off. We don't use the cable and the home phone is sort of redundant, anyway. I'll have to tell the schools to call my cell in case of an emergency, but I'm going to be there this week anyway. Keeping Internet. NEED Internet for the website, which is beginning to rock my socks. Today we have some new stuff from the illustrious
jedi_diplomat as well as some silly stuff from me.
Speaking of GeekaChicas, I hope to get on with making some content that's actually from ME this week. The technical/maintenance side of things has had be busy, but I'm anxious to be getting on with it. ;) I have something special to do for the poll closing, so that should be fun. (Spencer Reid is ahead, with Alec Hardison second followed by a rapidly gaining 10th Doctor. Go vote if you haven't yet!)

I think my blood pressure may be going a bit lower than is entirely optimal. Woke up two nights in a row with an arm or hand asleep from having it resting over my head. Not under me or anything. Oh, well, I see the doc again tomorrow.

Speaking of politics, the hubby compared me to Ann Coulter. I nearly slapped him. *G* He has very good slap-intercepting reflexes, which is probably necessary for someone mated to me. I believe he did it to get my goat. O_O It certainly made us both laugh. ;)

Sorry for teh SPAM, but... Happy National Cleavage Day
Thanks to
oberonia, I just learned that it is National Cleavage Day!!!!
Since I don't have any [pictures of my own] cleavage, I thought I'd share this amusing video, which celebrates cleavage in its own special way:
I think I'm spamming you guys because I don't want to pack. ;( Or basically do anything I should be doing.

Just for the sake of clarity
The WBC folks really are real. I had to look around a bit to find something appropriate to post to prove it, but I think I finally did:
I picked this one because it's funny instead of just being sad and/or rage-inducing. They did plan to protest Heath Ledger's funeral, too, though I don't know if they actually did it.
I hope they don't do as they planned, but to my friends in other countries, this isn't a joke or a parody, or satire. These folks really do this.

Why I Love Neil Gaiman, Reason #36
I've no idea how long this will be up, so take a look NOW:
This is where I spewed:
"I'm making up all of the stuff with the dead people."
This is where I started bouncing up and down and clapping:
"Anybody but Tom Bombadil."
I am now going to write a song called, "I Want To Be Neil Gaiman," sung to the tune of "I Want To Be Sedated."

EEEEEeeep! Liam Neeson still has it
From
emila_wan (check out her LJ for quotes and the links to the articles), here is some good news for Liam Neeson fans-- Taken is still in the top five at the box office, and has had very little slippage. The writer is reportedly working on a sequel. *crosses fingers* Let the sequel have Liam Neeson! Oh, please. Because watching that particular towering sequoia of sex blast his way through human traffickers in Paris was one of the highlights of my entertainment year, so far. (I saw it from a DVD that was not Region 1, and was surprised that it got by with a PG-13 rating, woo-boy.)
So, I went out in search of other Taken related news, and found this:

Huh. That's Interesting...
My "Why We Love Reid" video just passed 7,000 hits on YouTube, and has two video responses. (Which means, I think, that the girl is posting her video as video responses to popular videos in the same theme. Which means, this clunky thing I barely cobbled together while learning Movie Maker has become fairly popular.)
Now, I know it's not super popular or anything, but it gets steady traffic, with bumps every Thursday as people surf the web for Criminal Minds related vids.
*strokes nonexistent goatee*
I think that means that fast-and-dirty fandom-related videos might help generate traffic to my website.

I'm getting really close to launching the thing. Tell you guys all about it once I get over the Zombie thing this weekend. Kid's parents are calling about the details, and Big Boy keeps passing them off to me. I get that he's a bit shy sometimes, but this zombie thing is not my baby. I hope this doesn't become one of those things, you know, where mom takes over and does all the work. He will need help keeping the kiddies in line, I'm sure, but this is HIS project.
Oy. It'll be fine. Just have to get through to this time tomorrow, and I'm golden.

My Day Is Fueld by Strangeness
The guy who does dance remixes of celebrity rants has done the Bale rant. I'm torn between absolute horror and a mad giggle fit. It's probably NSFW, since it consists mostly of rude words. I sincerely hope Mr. Bale has gotten over taking himself so seriously.

Well, now. I am about $1000.00 poorer but I have a temporary crown and an appointment to get the permanent one. Not having dental coverage sucks, but a plan with dental coverage runs almost that much a month, on top of what we are paying for health coverage already.
But now you see why I gave recovering the other one a try before committing to a dentist. He was cool, though. He said, "I'm self-employed, too. I know." Then he didn't charge me for the eval or the X-rays, just his fixed costs, which was nice. He didn't have to do that.

Big Boy is staying on top of his work like a real champ this term. I'm proud of him and, truly, I can see that he is proud of himself.
The boys' buses arrived at almost the same time today, so they came in together and we all went to play with our dog, Bitey (we favor metonymical pet names, for some reason), in the back yard. The weather today was lovely, just a tad crisp.

I went through my feedback from Boyhouse, and I have sketched out a plan to rectify some of its deficiencies in the opening chapters. Still, I know where I'm going with it and have made steady progress on the story, tooth-swallowing/horking up notwithstanding.
Also, I had some great feedback from extremely talented and insightful writers who have since made names for themselves, like Sarah Prineas, Leah Bobet and Elizabeth Bear! I even had one from Ellen Harris-Braun. Memory of this had been lost to the pressures of Wee Boy's Early Intervention and Related Crises, but I had saved the files.
That made me very happy.

I don't watch soap operas, never have. Technically, I still don't, but... I happened upon the story of Luke and Noah on As the World Turns, via YouTube. Luke was this soap's first character to come out as gay, and sometime in the last year or two they decided to give him a love interest. A closeted love interest who was banging Luke's best friend so his father would approve of him. Or something. The motivations on soaps always baffle me, and of course people who have been shot or had kidney transplants never have scars. You know how it goes. So, for some time the writers have had to figure out ways to keep them apart, because, I suspect, they like keeping the religious right and the gay groups equally stirred up. I don't know. Noah's father tried to kill Luke, and Luke was paralyzed (only for a little while - pretty people never get permanent disabilities, didn't you know?) and then Noah married an Iraqi girl so she wouldn't be deported. Luke cheated in a student election and Noah wouldn't lie for him, so he was kicked out of college and started drinking. Then his grandmother's new husband started hitting on him... You get the idea. It's utterly ridiculous.
But... There are cute young men macking, and I'm very shallow.
So, now that they are an official Gay Couple doing Gay Things, I suspect they will have much less screen time. Then again, you never know.

The Best Laid Plans...
So, yesterday at lunch, I lost a crown off a molar. It's the only crown I have, placed there a few years ago when the molar started to crack. It had come off before, and I had put it back on to go to the dentist. The dentist tried to get it off but couldn't (he was afraid if he applied too much force, he could break my tooth.
Well, it came off whilst I was chewing and I reflexively swallowed it before I even noticed it was gone. I don't know why, but I decided to induce vomiting. I suppose that one goes under the heading of It Seemed Like A Good Idea At The Time. I had just finished lunch, so I figured it could not have gone far.
I will spare you the details of the endeavor, but it was partly successful. I now have a bit of dental hardware lodged in the tender folds of the back of my throat, and an appointment with the dentist today. *sigh* Eating is tricky, because anything that is not precisely body temperature causes me to twinge.
This totally frakked over my plans for Getting Things Done in the afternoon yesterday. I'm still a little puzzled by the whole "What was I THINKING?" aspect of it, but there you go.

In lighter, but perhaps less interesting/ridiculous news, I had a great morning with my happy boys, getting them off to school with smiles and hugs and such. I love the wee monkeys so much, I just want to squeeze them until they wriggle away in embarrassment. ;D
Big Boy keeps playing the "Midnight" episode of Doctor Who, and it really has grown on me. Even though it is Donna-less (and loves me some Donna) I think it illustrates all too well the difference between acting/dramatic traditions in Britain and the U.S. For one, the timing is excellent, and it seems obvious that the actors have a firm grounding in stage work. Plus, who in the U.S. (with the exception of Joss Whedon) would write a story in which minute differences in the timing of dialogue becomes a major plot point?
It's stunning. Glorious, even. Geeky, but fantastically so.
Big Boy and sometimes look at each other and say, "Shamble bobble dibble dooble" just to see if we can do it right.
OMG, how I love my kids! Sometimes I look at them and marvel that I had anything to do with making them the fantastic little monkeys they are.

Happy New Year! Beware of Freaks Bearing gifts
I have some fun stuff to share. They've had me giggling like a crazy person so I know some of you will enjoy them. Both are safe for work, but vaguely naughty.
First, a cracktastic drink commercial. I think it's French. It must be one of those cultural things that doesn't translate well, because I cannot imagine how this would make me want to drink what they're selling. Either that, or they are marketing to furries. (Not to dis the furries - to each his/her own and all that - it just seems a fairly narrow niche for marketing purposes.)

I'm not really sure how I feel about this, but it was too squirm-inducing not to share:
On the one hand, Ewan McGregor is congenitally adorable. On the other, well, Jim Carrey. I mean, I really enjoy some of his movies. The Truman Show was awesome and Bruce Almighty was a lot of fun. But I just can't see where they are going with this. Goofball RomCom? Another movie in the "Gay is Funny" genre? I just can't tell.
Maybe I'm just pissed off that Jim FREAKING Carrey gets to snog Ewan McGregor.
I fear to look, yet I cannot turn away.

Gratitude Post #5 Song Crack
Friends of mine insist they have been telling me I would love Jonathan Coulton, but I don't remember it. Enter Rock Band, and "Still Alive" from Portal, with its cracky non sequiturs... I was intrigued. Then my BIL law played "Skullcrusher Mountain" and I knew it was love. ;) It's a sort of love ballad from the point of view of an evil genius. Hits the crack spot every time.
The part that really gets me every time is this:
A spit-take worthy lyric if there ever was one.
Now for some Mitch Benn. He is a comedian and a singer/songwriter. This is a comic bit, not a song, but it SLAYS me, so I thought I'd share.
Don't Cancel Dr. Who (especially for my Whovian buddies):
An Oldish song about Obama:
The part that really gets me every time is this:
I made this half-pony half-monkey monster to please you
But I get the feeling that you don't like it
What's with all the screaming?
You like monkeys, you like ponies
Maybe you don't like monsters so much
Maybe I used too many monkeys
Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you?

Gratitude Post #3 - The Sense of Humor
I'm extremely grateful for all the wonderful people who don't take themselves too seriously. I'm grateful for the many, many opportunities I have had to learn for their examples.
I mean, it's important to have a sense of humor about yourself,and it makes life so much easier, to boot. I think the issue people sometimes have with wanting to be taken seriously, all the time, that everything they say or do must be seen Important and Profound, is really an outgrowth of being not at all certain of your own worth.
That's why it's so amazing to see people like Craig Ferguson talking about waking up soaked in piss and planning to jump off a bridge - what must have been the worst period of his life - and laugh about it.
Some things in life are important, and should be taken seriously, but 'seriously' does not mean 'humorlessly.' If you really, really believe in what you say, or the work you are doing, you can laugh about it, because you have no uncertainty in the work's importance. If you believe something is really important, then you know it will stand on its own.
If it is that profoundly true, then it's okay to laugh, because laughter, even mockery, cannot touch it. I'm still going after that balance, which I believe is an internal thing from which the rest will flow.
So, here are some things that have inspired me recently:
Life and death humor, the PengWIN!!
This one reminded my of days as editor of the college newspaper. In renewing the old "No Parking" sign pained in front of the entrance to a huge dormitory called Liston Hall, the maintenance crew had written, "No Parning." We ran a feature in the humor section, asking students what they thought it meant to parn, and how they would know they weren't doing it.
In retrospect, I think I got away with a lot of stuff because the administration liked me personally. (Up to poking fun at a certain professor's middle name, "Dodie." he deserved it, the old lecher, though he bore the ribbing with real class.)

see more pwn and owned pictures
So, here I am today, having weathered another bout of my own personal Ms. Hyde, I can look back on myself just yesterday, hiding oranges and being generally grumpy about everything and go "Bwahahahahahahaha! What a jerk!" and move on. Absolutely no one's approval required. *giggle* I'm free!
So I leave you with a bit of UNCENSORED wisdom from one of my personal heroes. (He's not my hero because I always agree with him, he's my hero because he's true to himself and not particularly affected by the approval or disapproval of others, and still manages not to take himself too seriously.)
