OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG. (That also looks like nomnomnomnomnom.)

The occasional fangirl spaz is quite therapeutic, and I'm having a good time with it. Those who know me know that I'm not a serious fangirl; you know, the ones who won't talk to you and de-friend you on Facebook if you talk smack about the object of their obsession. No, I'm a fun fangirl, the kind where every time I hyperventilate or forget to breathe altogether, roses sprout and bloom somewhere in the world.

What I mean to say is, it's fun =) My inner fangirl hasn't shown up since the time Sky moonlighted as a Hanes model or the time when Andros modulated his voice in a strategic attempt to win at Zenta.

AKA why nosmokegirl  is awesome:

I saw not one but two UPS trucks turn left today, in front of my very eyes! ;-) (Related story here)

I'm making no promises to myself this year. I wasn't even sure I'd do it, but after seeing the slew of fun NaNo icons, I couldn't resist.

(I'm still not making any promises to myself this year, but I was always a sucker for madness.) 

I'm wearing a cape. Because I can! =D

I probably shouldn't be sucking down coffee right now, but I'm doing it because I don't want to waste it, not because I want to stay awake. Go fig. I'm listening to sappy love ballads and studying the various kinds of phrases that occur in the English language. The one I don't get so far is verbals. All the book says is that they can't function as a sentence by themselves. It also says that for every other type of phrase listed. This book FAILS.

In other news, I'm also occasionally distracting myself with this rediscovered gem, Survival Mechanisms by scifislasher. Not new by any means, but I'm trying to find fodder to prop up my imagination before NaNoWriMo hits. I have some severely long overdue projects that I can't seem to jump start every time I sit down to a blank page, and it's bumming me out severely. I have NO idea what it's going to take to get me writing again. =~(

Nostradamus Bridge says...Sky Tate was a pensive cowboy in a past life. ( Or was that last week? )

Double entendre much, Syd? 

S.F. a dangerous city for careless pedestrians -- "Seriously, how often have you seen someone there walk out into traffic against the light, confidently assuming that the car will stop?"

If you're crossing the street against a red light, I have no sympathy for you if you get hit.

Some hilarious, some creepy, and all not work-safe:

It's dry outside this morning. I was ready for another storm too. Yesterday would have been fun if I'd been able to go home after work instead of having to go to class. I wouldn't have had to keep my socks dry as long as I did. Yes, my life is uneventful enough that a major rainstorm has me smiling as I get soaked because nothing nearly that interesting happens on a more regular basis.

I was bored, so I played with the Search function over at the Pit. In the Twilight fandom, the number of hits I got for the search string "I suck at summaries"...701.

People. We can tell whether or not you suck at summaries by READING THE SUMMARY. You don't have to tell us. Oh, and by using that precious summary space to tell us you suck at summaries, then yes, you DO suck at summaries.

While I'm at it, the number of hits for the Power Rangers universe: 19. Out of 10,609 fics.  Not bad =)
