Oh, the Urban-ity.

Hey folks. I was offline and looped on Nyquil all weekend, and trust me- it was a very good thing. Really. I feel tons better (though not totally healthy) and able to face the world- able, I just don't want to right now. Public "I'm sorry" to lethokis but at 1:57:36 pm on Friday (to be fair, I said that would happen in my entry Friday) I was out the door and didn't log in again until yesterday.

This weekend was very low key. I dragged myself to brunch at DCita's Sunday, Benifer came over on Sunday to put the bathroom shelf back up and watch Iron Chef (ALTON, I HEART YOU), and last night I managed to get in and out of VA for Chia-Chia's bbq. My sense of taste is shot, but the pint of Haagen Dazs dark chocolate ice cream was good anyway. Drank a lot of Gatorade. At some point I will probably post reviews of all the movies I watched this weekend. Bananas, I tell you. I tried to read MaryJanice Davidson's Fish Out of Water, but I'm over the tough bitch heroine thing. So, so over it. Started Mr. Muo's Traveling Couch by the guy who wrote Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress. So far, so good.

So Ben, while putting the shelf back up, drilled two holes in the wall that went clear into my bedroom, something I didn't notice until I was getting ready for bed. I was totally out of it at that point and was convinced that I was seeing things because of the Nyquil, but next morning- HOLES IN THE WALL! I was all "GAH! TEH HOLES!" *stagger* *clutch head* *koff* *wheeze* but luckily, I bought spackle when I moved in and it filled the holes quite nicely. :)

I joined ontd_startrek and after opening up my LJ friend's page this morning I was a little annoyed at how it's eating the page, but then I saw this gif (TEH EYEBROW! *swoon*), and I'm thinking I'll suck it up a bit longer.

Someone on there tried to get "GQ Motherfucker" on Urban Dictionary and failed- probably because they were too specific? (the Trek cast are not, I'm thinking, the only GQ motherfuckers out there...). So adorkable.

Putting up more writing tonight and catching up on Pulped Fictions. Or sleeping. Will see how I feel.

Everyone have a good weekend?

I'm glad you're feeling better!!

Oh dear god.
I need to stay the hell away from that community while at work. I can only pretend to cough to cover my laughter for so long before I get funny looks. o_0

Thanks! Steer clear of this nastiness if you can avoid it, because I've been out of the loop for way to long as a result and will be hating life when I get back on the treadmill... tomorrow. *cries*

IKR? It's madness, I tell you, MADNESS. Someone, thank dawg, actually transcribed the Letterman list of things that Spock should say in the sequel or... something:

10. Warp Factor 8! Arby’s Closes in 10 minutes.
9. We’re entering a breach in the space-time continuum or a wormhole or some crazy crap like that.
8. Set phasers to fabulous!
7. Welcome aboard the starship enterprise – today’s in flight movie is big momma’s house 2!
6. We’ve been hijacked by Somali pirates!
5. Sir, i’m going to need Saturday off to attend my nephew’s bar mitzvah.
4. My baby-daddy is a Vulcan – on the next 'Maury!'
3. The enterprise just hit a goose, we’re gonna have to land in the Hudson.
2. Live long, prosper, and keep on hangin’ and bangin’.
1. I find your choice of hairpiece highly illogical.

I don't care. It's funneh.

I should be able to stay away from it, though honestly right now I'm more concerned I'll wind up with some weird lung fungus from all the old crap I'm having to sieve through.

I'm liking that one only because it actually could, in theory, come out of his mouth. By that I mean I could probably come up with a situation where he'd say that. A highly unlikely situation... and one with a whole lotta slapstick, but a situation nonetheless.

They all just cry out to be iconned, dammit. I HAVE A JOB. I'M AN EDITOR, JIM, NOT A PHOTOSHOP HOOR! Okay, that's a lie. Or at least part of it... argh.

Stay well, stay warm!

[gahdzuks.livejournal.com]

Photoshop hooring happens after work, remember? You can be both!
Thankfully, my new fandom project won't be able to be started until after work... which is actually in a little over an hour. Hot damn. I've got to make a t-shirt. :D

Staying warm isn't an issue. Now, staying cool might be a problem, but Alabama does warm pretty damn good. :)

Ooh! What tshirt? WILL THERE BE PICTURES???

How's the job going, by the way? Did they get their acts together and make you all official-like?

[gahdzuks.livejournal.com]

It's a really random t-shirt. prthecrazyone and I fangirled for a few hours last night over Quinto's appearance on "Off-Centre" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-swIlKWfejs). We decided we needed a t-shirt that says "Without animals, all you would have in zoos is air" and on the back it'd say "TRUTH" and have a picture of a guinea pig. Yeah... pretty random, isn't it?

Yes! They did finally get their acts together and I'm working 20 with Donnelly doing archiving and then another 11ish where I've been for the last year. I'm loving the archiving. It's a bit hard to read some of the letters I have to work with, and the ones I can read are kinda dull, but I get to research the writers and stuff they talk about... it's really very cool for me. :)

OMG! SEAN MAGUIRE! SQUEEEEE1 Thanks for that. Ever since I heard about Quinto appearing in "So No-TORI-ous" I've been dying to see him do something funny and this is GREAT! Watching it at home. Later, while I'm, er, Photoshop hooring... I'd buy that tshirt, by the way.

The job sounds like it shaped up to be something fantastic! Congrats! :D

Quinto needs to do more comedy. STAT. He's already a funny guy and should spread the funny once more now that he's all big and famous. *nods*
