Eloquent farewell, as always.
Service this morning = "Oh hi Aaron & Dave! Yeah, I'm good, thanks for asking! Oh nice to see you too!" Grrrr. I was born the wrong freakin' gender.
Lexi cracks me up. btw, meeting last night = Elders + older people = nice. Lexi = amusing as all get out. Everyone else = Bite me. I have no idea why I'm typing like this, save for the fact that I'm annoyed and don't feel like slipping into tangent mode.
Um, *points to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
bsbnelijah_fan* Elijah picspam, wherein there are Geek-Glasses Elijah (c) Mattel pictures. WFFIZZADAFLJS. Yes.
Orlando Bloom "Paper Dolls" I think I laughed waaaaay too hard just now to be declared mentally sane. Oh my lord. I think I burst a blood vessel. By the way, my current favorite combination is Orlando in Legolas' green suit with boxing gloves/shoes on and floating heart boxer shorts. MAHAHAHAHA, damn youjedi_bria, THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT! I BLAME YOU!!!
The Fellowship of the Peeps. I'm not sure whether or not I should be amused or frightened.
1: Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 18, find line 4. Write down what it says:
Um, there are no books near me. Lots of magazines though, does that count? Hmm, an address book! ...not a good idea. *runs to room quickly* "Ever faithful, ever sure." Leave it to me to pick up a book of poems.
2: Stretch your left arm out as far as you can. What do you touch first?
NOTHING! WHOO I ALMOST FELL OUT OF MY CHAIR TOO! SCORE ONE FOR ME!
3: What is the last thing you watched on TV?
The Fresh Prince of Bel air. HEH.
4: WITHOUT LOOKING, guess what time it is:
6:11.
5: Now look at the clock, what is the actual time?:
4:46, HAHAHAHA. Oops.
6: With the exception of the computer, what can you hear?:
Cars passing outside, Mr. Deeds soundtrack ("Fallen" by Ben Kweller), myself talking to myself.... Shaddup, you know you do it too!
7: When did you last step outside? what were you doing?
This morning, I went out in service.
8: Before you came to this website, what did you look at?
LiveJournal. Friends page skip=100. Beh.
9: What are you wearing?
I DON'T THINK THAT'S APPROPRIATE!!!!!!!! Heee, sneakers, capris, sports bra & hooded jacket. Exercise = bad.
10: Did you dream last night?
Dude, I dream every night. I don't remember what I was dreaming about, but I know it was disturbing and I almost didn't get up this morning because of it.
11: When did you last laugh?
Probably at something Emily just said to me. Or at myself, because I always do something dumb that merits embarrassed laughter. Heh.
12: What is on the walls of the room you are in?:
HAHAHAHAHA, paint. Thermostat. Light-switches/outlets. I'm in the boring room.
13: Seen anything weird lately?:
I live in New Hampshire. When am I NOT seeing something weird? *shakes head*
14: What do you think of this quiz?:
The fact that I filled it out should speak volumes. ;)
15: What is the last film you saw?:
In theaters? Starsky & Hutch (HEEEEEEE!). On TV/video? Cheaper by the Dozen. I still wanna see ESOTSM, dang it. WHY ISN'T IT PLAYING UP HERE, OH CRUEL WORLD?
16: If you became a multi-millionaire overnight, what would you buy first?:
I'd probably put it into savings, 'cause I'm that boring. Maybe go see a matinee. Eat a burger. Maybe some fries. Yeah, it'd be good to be rich. ;) Can I buy Billy Boyd? Is that an option?
17: Tell me something about you that I don't know:
Ha. I haven't had a close friend since I was 14. I constantly shut everyone out. Or wait, you already knew that! ha.
18: If you could change one thing about the world, regardless of guilt or politics, what would you do?:
I'd teach everyone the truth. That would basically, um, solve EVERY PROBLEM IN THE ENTIRE WORLD.
19: Do you like to dance?:
Like to? Yes. Good at it? Debatable. Dance in public? Avoid it at all costs.
20: George Bush: is he a power-crazy nutcase or some one who is finally doing something that has needed to be done for years?:
*holds up hands* POLITICAL NEUTRALITY, POLITICAL NEUTRALITY!!!! NO COMMENT!
21a: Imagine your first child is a girl, what do you call her?:
Jessie Bell. If you laugh, you're dissin' my g-ma, so shut it. :P
21b: Imagine your first child is a boy, what do you call him?:
Hamish, Bowen, or Gabriel. Yeah, you thought my girl name was bad! ;)
22: Would you ever consider living abroad?:
BAHAHAHA, because I'm not well-traveled enough as it is! (I've moved 12 times in 20 years). But yes, I'd move anywhere, all you'd have to do is ask.
Baahahaha. Darn straight.
ROTFL! My boy Elijah! Whooo!
Yeeeeaah, that's about right.
Rosie Cotton, and most loved of Samwise Gamgee. You
are sensible, and caring, but would prefer to
not see too much change. If it isn't broken
afterall, why fix it?
Which Female Character in LOTR are you?
brought to you by Quizilla
Hmm, unexpected.
Which Pirates of the Caribbean character are you?
HEHEHEHE. Who's surprised? Not me.
:: Orlando Fanfic Mary Sue DRINKING Game ::
Yeah I know there are a lot of these babies out there but I thought the growing genre of Orlando/Legolas fanfic deserves it's own. So here it is, just don't play this every night or you'll end up hang out with Kurt and I on the Alcoholics thread at late hours in the morning.
Starting Out Requires:
1 shot glass (even if you're drinking beer)
enough alchohol to get you through the story
a fanfiction archive (recommended: Blooming Library, Man In The Mirror, Rusted Faith, or Fanfiction.net)
The Techinical Stuff (this alone can get you trashed)
If the fanfic is not spellchecked - one shot
If the fanfic is spellchecked, but out-of-context words can still be readily discerned (i.e., 'there' instead of 'their', 'won' instead of 'one') - half shot
If the fanfic is all one long paragraph - (if beer down the bottle, other wise take three shots)
If the writer uses words in a way that suggests she has no idea of their meaning - half shot
If you notice a certain affectation towards run-on sentences or the absence of punctation marks such as commas - one shot
Words spelled in internet short hand (wuz, u, ur, dis, dat) - two shots
The Orginal (or not) Character(s)
The Name Game
OC is named after the author - half shot
OC has an extremely exotic name - one shot
OC has several different names and you can't figure out who the author is talking about (you might be reading Tale of Tales on MITM no offense to author) - take one shot
Has a name usually suited for a boy - half shot
Named after a pop star - two shots and hit your head against the wall
The Physical Attributes of OC
If she's gorgeous and should be a model - take a shot
Has an unnatural eye color (silver, violet, or magenta perhaps, god knows these days) - two shots
Long flowing hair that bounces and cascades down her shoulders in loose curls or like silk - one shot
The author tries to get you to believe she's plain but somehow changes her mind when she describes her, or Orlando thinks she's stunning anyways - one shot
If goth or punk - half shot
If the character is obese, has acne, one eye, back hair, and a large mole on her chin - make sure that you're reading an Orlando fanfic, if you in fact are go throw up all that you previously drank, then email the fic to us.
The Problems with Employment
Vague job and sounds too much like an obsessed fan - three shots
Has a job that the author knows nothing about - one shot
Has a job that the author knows nothing about and somehow obtained it without any proper training whatso ever (ex: LOTR costume designer that gets the job at 18 by making costumes for high school drama class and no design school background) - take two shots
OC is an actress or rock star - half shot
OC is a costume designer, make-up artist, personal assisitant, assistant director, choreographer, lighting specialist, set designer, weapons goffer, etc for LOTR - take a shot
Has a pathetic job like cleaning Orlando's toilet, bent over in a French maid's outfit - you're reading something stolen out of a bad porn movie this could be entertaining
Changes her job to get closer to Orlando - if you're reading this fic either go kill yourself now before you reach the end, or down the bottle and hope it gets erased from your memory in the morning as it will haunt you for the rest of your life (this is why I'm not giving you the title)
The Plot Line (now this is the worst of the worst)
OC goes to New Zealand meets Orlando and they fall madly in love - take a shot for evertime you read this story from a different author
OC has a tramatic past but Orlando makes it all better - take a shot , two shots if she was raped, two if she was jilted, send it to me if her tramatic past was because she killed her parents
OC is Orlando's long time best friend and feelings develop - half shot as I have read a good story like this
OC and Orlando hate each other but over come their differences in the end - half shot
OC get's knocked up - half shot
Ends in a marraige and little Orli spawns running around the place - take a shot
Never ends ... ever! - finish the bottle and you won't be so bored
Hasn't been updated due to bad reviews - half a shot and rejoice the author got the point
Keeps updating despite flames and thanks the reviewers - you got a real winner on your hands start chugging
By now you're about ready to get your stomach pumped so have fun in the ER!

Backstreet Boys Back to Work The new songs feature a more mature sound for the teen pop idols. Ballads like "You Can Tell Me" and "Love Is" -- co-written by Howie Dorough -- exude an urban soul vibe a la Britain's Craig David. And the Boys say the album will touch upon a wealth of styles.
Wheeeeeee. I repeat: is it summer yet? FALL TOUR! *loads ticketmaster looking for signs of life* ;)
I think I'm still 80 friends entries behind. Yo, I'm gonna be an LJ NUT for a while it seems... I could add more to this post as it is, but it's officially been 4 hours, my butt hurts, and I'm bored, so ta. ;)
