Butcher caught me on the chin with a claw... that's what I get for trying to show him a little love. ;_; It bled a little. Like my skin isn't having enough problems, now I get to add cat scratch to the blemishes.

Torchwood was HILARIOUS this week. I can't be the only one who thought that... I was almost in tears laughing at parts. And oh, Ianto, he will never stop getting my love. Poor thing. He deserves better. >>

Spare link: There Will Be Bud, the stoner retort to There Will Be Blood. "I clear your bong rip!" > "I drink your milkshake!"

I don't remember what I read today that quoted a Shakespearian sonnet, but it made me feel like listening to this song:
Rufus Wainwright - Sonnet 29
Rufus has such a lovely voice. ♥

Today I went through three bags of crack sunflower seeds. I need to pace myself...

I do believe I'm going to go do crossword puzzles until I fall asleep. \o/

Oh wait, eta: I'm making a Bob-centric Dresden Files fanmix for request month at fst. Does anyone have any suggestions? I've got a handful of songs now, and I'm going to go through my library more thoroughly tomorrow, but suggestions are always good!

I still haven't played any of the Phoenix Wright games, but today I feel like I am grooving the Hobo!Phoenix look that I've seen on so many fandomsecrets. Hat, hoodie, dazed look... I'm just that cool.

Right now I'm going to talk KoL for a second. I have three accounts: one I made last September and I've been playing pretty much constantly since then, GideonCalhoun. I've been collecting trophies and (non-Mr. A-traded, because I am poor) familiars and tattoos, and I'm kind of flatlined on the last two because a) I have every non-Mr.A familiar except the Jumpsuited Hound Dog (which I will have in 25 days/25 more filthy lucre), and the Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot (which I will have once I ascend Moxie sign, kill the Bonerdagon, and make some clockwork parts). I can't ascend yet, because I'm going for one more trophy that requires me to get to level 30. I'm on level 24 now, and it's taking me... about a day to go 3000/4000 (depending on whether it's a Mysticality day or not) points up, and I need about 25,000 more to level up to 25. I'm not focusing exclusively on leveling, though-- first I do the Bounty Hunter Hunter quest for the day, then I get some meat++ buffs and kill ducks for mucho meats, and then I put on monster level++ equipment and kill cavemen hippies, which I think are the highest level things I can kill anyhow... and I keep the Spanish fly trap enabled so I can get free Around the World drinks, which are way better than the basic-ass drinks I can mix myself. I can make awesome chow meins, though, and stocking up my store with those every couple of days is helping in a serious way to get more meat. Next ascension, I am going Disco Bandit/Blender, maybe Boozetafarian.

The second account is one Kristin made last year, Landshark Says Candygram, and which I forget about for days at a time so there aren't any clear-cut goals for it... I'm basically running it to do the BHH quests and get lucre so I can get the Bounty-Hunting Rig for it, and ingredient farming so I can hoard up some delicious foods for when I ascend it soon. I was thinking Disco Bandit, but I might go Seal Clubber, because I've never played one of those before. It's not as good at getting meat as GC is, but a cat is fine too it's fine for getting items for now.

The third account... I made a couple of years ago, back when I first got into KoL, and when I actually had money to buy things, so I have the single awesome paid familiar on any of my accounts, which is why it didn't get deleted. callum has already been ascended twice, and I've gone through most of the Naughty Sorceress with him before I realized, hey, NS13 was implemented while I forgot about this account, and now I'm slogging through the Mysterious Island quest to be done with it. I made a n00b mistake and ascended him Boozetafetarian Pastamancer, which is a STUPID mix, and now I am just trying to get his ass ascended out of that mistake, lol. He has a mall shop too, but honestly I like running everything off GideonCalhoun so I'm probably going to close his shop. (hint: this was long enough ago that I named the shop "Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital". When was the last time I watched House? Geez.) I'm... oh, probably about 300 adventures away from being done with that, and I'm the exact opposite of worried about beating the Sorceress... I just want to get the Order of the Silver Wossname if I'm having to do this anyhow. (Why do anything halfassedly?)

And... yes, that's about it. I have an account ready to ascend, one within a week of being ready, and my main account that has at least a good month's worth of leveling to do still. I'm not very good at PVP, mostly because it seems like at a certain rank everyone is ten or so levels above me and multiply ascended, so I'm screwed. But I'm still just in it for the pretty flowers.

Wow, I can talk a lot about this. >> Back to beating up hippies and frat boys, now. Places to go, quests to work on, you know how it goes.

I am tech support \o/ Seriously, the entirety of my value is in helping my friends and family with computer issues and petting cats.

LINKS.

The most expensive shower ever.... and it's clear the reviewer is a man because all he can come up with are taint jokes. NO, dude. This is a shower for the ladies. That showerhead on the floor has nothing to do with your hairy manly chodes. If I had a shower like that, "I have to wash my hair" would be my permanent excuse for anything I didn't want to do... or maybe even things I did want to do. "Sorry I'm late for the wedding, I had to wash my hair!"

If you have a Verizon Wireless phone, the FBI is listening. This is fucked up, and now I'm all pissed off that the FBI has been listening to my drunk dials and all the times my sister has cried on the phone to me. FUCK OFF, BIG BROTHER. I was supposed to have a big brother and he died, I don't need the feds taking his place.

Usually I disagree with the popularity of the tramp stamp, but I like the message behind this one. That dog is the original "haha, you are FAIL" image, and seeing that over her jeans as she walks away after an ice-cold rejection at the club... nice, lady. Nice one.

Do you drink a lot of soda? Put those tabs to use. I know, back in middle school they were "kiss tabs" or whatever, but now they are links in your handmade suit of chain mail! That's AWESOME.

A simplified map of the Eisenhower Interstate System. When you look at it this way, the USA almost makes sense! Time for a road trip, now that we know what goes where... I-95 and I have had some good times together. Word up.


At 3 AM tonight, Sci-Fi is airing the original 2-hour Dresden Files pilot (that they cut down to make the episode Storm Front, which totally didn't match the rest of the series and now I know why), and I am there with bells on. \o/ The book was great, but the episode was akshully not so gret, and I want to see if it was better before it got chopped up.

I am very cold, and I need to scrape together another dollar for the Josh Szostak benefit concert tonight. A guy from the PSU radio station disappeared over Christmas break and the police have stopped searching, but his family and friends haven't given up-- and I remember him from when I was at the Quake, and he was a really good guy, so I hope that he's found soon. But yes. Concert tonight, if anyone in Plattsburgh hasn't heard about it, it's at Trinity Church downtown starting at 8pm. There's also going to be a bake sale, unfortunately I'm not even sure I can come up with the five bucks to get in, never mind for delicious snacky foods. If I'd known before, I definitely would have baked something to chip in, but I don't have the ingredients for anything-- I even ran out of brown sugar last night. -_-

This is going to be the first real social event I've been to in... um. A very long time. I'm not even sure how long. That's pretty sad. Anyway.

All I've eaten today is cookies, cereal and soda. ...now I'm going to have more cookies. Go, healthy eating.

I fell asleep doing crosswords. -_- and then I woke up with a raging headache, which is not the thing you want going to see a show. I took some painkillers but they have yet to kick in, and it's snowing, and I don't think I'm making it to Trinity Church after all. -_- I lose.

I also just realized that I don't get the sci-fi channel anymore, so I can't watch the Dresden Files original pilot after all. And the SGA season finale is tonight, and I have to wait for that to be uploaded. wtf. At least now I won't be up until 5 am for no reason. That was kind of a big thing for me to forget and I feel really dumb now. D:

head hurts ;_;

Dinner tonight is going to be pizza bagels, so I'm going to make the sauce now and let it sit like it's supposed to, but we're usually too hungry to let it. Whee.

I just figured out that I should ascend Landshark Says Candygram Sunday before rollover and build up adventures for Monday and Tuesday because they're muscle days. Finally, I'm getting a clue about using the calendar to my benefit!

Mrr. I am going to sit on the couch and cuddle cats when I'm done making sauce.
