ok ,so I totally and completely suck. I always, ALWAYS manage to sabotage myself for NaNoWriMo and I wish I had more energy to be indignant about it. *sigh* The month's not ever, so I will continue to try, but I think this is as far as I'll get, honestly. I just don't have the mental energy for it.

And I'm horribly behind on this:

LIST FAVORITE CELEBRITIES (ARTISTS, MOVIE STARS, MUSICIANS, ETC) FROM A - Z, ONE EVERYDAY.

Day Eight: "H" is for Hugh.



Yes, ladies, I love Hugh Laurie. I love that he's a comedian and a goof, that he falls under the elite category of "British men who age well". I love that he doesn't think of himself as anyone special. I love the way he speaks Spanish, and that he plays every instrument ever and that he was Mr Little, and Bertie and I still think that listening him read "Three men is a boat" will always make me smile, and his American accent, and just I LOVE HUGH LAURIE.

Runners up (also Hughs):



ALSO:

you guys.

( LOOK AT THE PRETTY SHOES THAT JUST ARRIVED AT MY HOUSE )
ARE THEY NOT AWESOME??????
I love them. They are soooo comfy and worth every penny. queenspanky, thanks for pointing them out. I will totally own one in every color as soon as they start shipping them to the States (and I get paid again). FOR REALZ.


peace.

Rewatch afterparty : OVER AT PALI'S!!!

ETA: I wrote comment!fic. :)

LIST FAVORITE CELEBRITIES (ARTISTS, MOVIE STARS, MUSICIANS, ETC) FROM A - Z, ONE EVERYDAY.

Day Seven: "G" is for Gerard.



Ummm....do I need a reason to love this man?


Really?

Ok, I'll give you some:
the accent.
the eyes.
the smile. (and hello, did you see 'PS I love you'?
he can sing. (Phantom)
he can kick your ass and look daaaaaaaamn fine. (300)

THE ACCENT.

hee.

ok, so this week has SUCKED ASS (jeez, is it only Wed???), but the AWESOMENESS that is workerbee73 has put up a LOVE SPAM POST where you can declare your love for everyone and everything and just hold on to it for days like today.

GO. SPAM. (lord knows I have)
Spread the love.

SPREAD IT.

(hee. that's what Lee said.)

NaNoWriMo: FAIL.
Work: Should crawl away and DIE AN EXCRUCIATING DEATH (but keep sending money).
Time: Need more of it.
Sleep vs TV: No one is winning because I am doing neither.
Fandom projects: Shine bright and pretty and oh so distant.
Family: Being neglected and wonderfully patient w/ my all around bitchiness.

I'm really feeling like throwing a pity party for myself, you guys. The high from last night's Rewatch afterparty is wearing off (though kellychameleon3's Pilot Picspam is making things a little better...yes, I iconed. I couldn't help it. See comments section.)

But I'll just continue w/ the celebrity meme.

LIST FAVORITE CELEBRITIES (ARTISTS, MOVIE STARS, MUSICIANS, ETC) FROM A - Z, ONE EVERYDAY.

Day Six: "F" is for Farrah.



This lady is freakin' ICONIC. I mean, she's one of the few that's still left that can be said to be the face of a generation. It's crazy. Plus her very real struggle w/ a horrible disease and her bravery in just letting everyone see all of it...no holds barred, this is what it is. Just...I want to be that brave. But pray that I never have to be.
May she rest in peace.



I should do an icon dump, but I can't bring myself to aggravate my carpal tunnel any longer.
cheers.

AFTERPARTY

dude, because we all expected Lee to all:

GAIUS BALTAR????

Writer's block has hit me HARD you guys, so this is just....blah!!

It's been a pretty craptastic day, I'm starving for fanfiction (*cries*) and just ARRRRRRRGGGGG.

And so, I'm watching things that make me feel good on YouTube.

This is one of them:



I'm not exactly Mexican (I'm about two countries further south) but the lines still ring true.
Oh Selena. I love that movie...it always makes me smile.

cheers.

Nope. The writing just isn't coming tonight.

So, MEMES!!!

LIST FAVORITE CELEBRITIES (ARTISTS, MOVIE STARS, MUSICIANS, ETC) FROM A - Z, ONE EVERYDAY.

Day Five: "E" is for Ewan.



Oh Ewan. You're the only one who has a whole folder dedicated to just you on my computer. I fell completely head over heels in love with this man in the Gweneth version of Emma. There was Star Wars of course, but holy crap I wanted this man soooooo badly in Moulin Rouge!!! And our love affair has been going strong since then. He makes reading the phone book sexy.

SEXY.


Leave me a comment saying "Resistance is Futile."
I'll respond by asking you five questions so I can satisfy my curiosity.
Update your journal with the answers to the questions.

Welcome to everyone from no_takebacks after watching the best episode of Season One: COLONIAL DAY.

Day Four: "D" is for Damien Lewis



I first saw him on The Forsythe Saga and was instantly creeped out. I mean, I HATED him. I wanted nothing but pain for him. Then, I watched all those BBC Shakespeare-remakes and he was in Much Ado About Nothing and I FELL IN LOVE. And of course, there's Life which is MADE OF WIN.

( this edition also features: Honorable Mentions )

NaNo is coming along. I will go back to it maybe later tonight and see if I can write some more.

In the meantime, here's a few things for you guys to check out:

- pilotsbigbang is up and running! Go sign up!

- Regretsy.com which is the worst of the HILARIOUS worst on Etsy. Go check it out (WARNING: NWS!!!). Not nearly as good as Cakewrecks, but damn it's unbelievable just how....BOLD people will be.

Day Three: "C" is for COOKIE Chris Martin.



Ok, ok. Say what you will about Chris Martin and his ego or whatever, but I love this guy. He's environmentally conscious and interested in doing something good in the world. He produces the most BEAUTIFUL ballads and some of my favorite songs EVER.
Also, he appreciates the fans. I can't think of any other person/band member that would be willing to set up a second stage at the back of the venue where they're playing and play 3-4 songs on this stage so that the people in the cheap seats get a front-row experience. I mean, REALLY. He puts in 300% into the concerts, with so much energy it's almost worrying.

Also, he's pretty. And British. Which is really, the only requisite for me. Haha. I'm so easy. (twss)


on to other things: NaNoWriMo STARTS TOMORROW (it's not too late to sign up!! 50,000 words in 30 days. You KNOW you want to.).

I'm FREAKING OUT because I'm not going to be home all of day one. *cries*
But I will make it this year!!!!

Aaaaaand here's some icons:



(this based on a design by Alister Graham Dobson)



GAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

please feed my ego and tell me what you think of me.

hee!

Also, I just spent all day working on my artist entry for bsg_bigbang and while I think my carpal tunnel syndrome has been aggravated, BUT I DON'T CARE. I'm so proud of myself!!!
(fyi, it's completely hand-drawn, so that's why it's so much work)

Now I need to make icons.

Day Two: B is for Bette



Call me crazy, but I LOOOOOOOVE Bette Davis. I'm a sucker for all those old movies and the scandal rags of the 30s and 40s. She was one of the first really strong women on film with a complete acting range and just so....ALLURING. I want to know this woman! I want her to be my grandmother! Haha.

Tomorrow: C is for Celebrity.

Yoinked from mintenergy:

LIST FAVORITE CELEBRITIES (ARTISTS, MOVIE STARS, MUSICIANS, ETC) FROM A - Z, ONE EVERYDAY.

Let's start w/ "A": Amanda Seyfried



I LOOOOVE Amanda. I really found her hilarious in Mean Girls, but I absolutely fell in love with her on Veronica Mars. And as time has moved along she's been able to play all these roles that really show off what a great actress she is, and she's just cute as a button.

Tomorrow is "B"! It's like a daily Sesame Street!

Just as an FYI, when things get particularly tough, I get nostalgic. I remember the good ol' days of my early early fandoms and how happy they made me.

That being said, I need to find Escaflowne icons. Like, RFN.


Dude, I might even head back over to FFN and see if my account still works.

*sigh*
Tomorrow's the BSG re-watch: Hand of God. It's the only thing I have to look forward to for what promises to be the most craptastic Monday ever.

F-LIST: YOU ROCK MY SOCKS
Thank you SOOO much for supporting me in last weekend's CHOC Walk! Unfortunately, that day I broke out in hives and didn't actually do the walk (*cries*) but the money is going to the children's hospital and that's what counts!!!
Again, thank you so much.

On to FANDOM:
I'm SOOOOOO excited about pilotsbigbang because this will mean NEW PILOTS FIC! LOTS OF IT!!! I'm sooo craving this right now, it's not even funny.

And I know it's totally cheating, but I made graphics for the event already and I had to share w/ my f-list:

( Cut for your protection... )

HEE!!!!!

Mark your calendars, update your f-list, and pimp this out to all your friends...


Coming Soon:

Welcome everyone from no_takebacks!

Join the AFTERPARTY!!
