What the hell are the eight zombies milking, is what I want to know. The scary thing is that several of these other ones actually make sense.

So, roughly 5 hours ago, we attempted to make lunch. The oven malfunctioned, the food went up in flames (quite literally) and I still haven't gotten any lunch because we've spent all afternoon cleaning up the nasty powdery residue that the fire extinguisher left coating everything in the kitchen (and most of the rest of the house). And we apparently need a new oven - turning the thing off required killing the circuit breaker, cause it wouldn't turn off by itself.

The best part? All of this was the result of a measly package of 9 coconut shrimp.

Before anyone jantra and nerdraeg beat me profusely for not mentioning I was hopping on a 13-hour or something flight to the other-other side of the US, I didn't know I was going either until maybe 3-5 days before we left, which meant all my time outside work was taken up with frantic trips to collect all the crap I'd need to take along.

Seriously- Kev pops into our room and says we're going to Hawaii and I'm like oh, really? Ok!

Barring the joys of driving, I discovered:

I can't snorkel to save my life.
Mongooses will leave happy little footprints all over the hood of your car.
Tourists are stupid. Don't be a tourist.
The Maui aquarium is pretty freaking cool despite being rather small.
Our hotel room included a complementary live house gecko.
The road to Hana will inspire nervous breakdowns and seizures. Take a bus.
Mahi mahi is really tasty. Especially at the Oceanscape restaurant.
Luau dinners include purple sweet potatos. Purple. And lots more dumb tourists.
Whaler's Village has horrible parking. Bribe a nearby hotel parking attendant.
Submarines are neat.
I have self-control. I didn't smuggle home any wildlife, invasive or not.
I hate airplanes. They're full of tourists.

Hey, nerdraeg. *POUNCE* Happy natal day! XO

So much for doing something constructive instead of sleeping, as usual. I decided to do a load of wash, because the glacier of dirty clothes was starting to drift out of the laundry room. And the blasted washer just HOSED me.

Stupid large appliance and its penchant for random ecchiness.

So I spent a decent chunk of time no numbers here, so let's just say I probably read just a few fics too many reading zoofic this weekend...

This afternoon, I needed reading material at lunch and - seeing how I work at a pet store and we carry critter magazines of various varieties - I picked up the Kittens USA 2007-2008 Annual, courtesy of Cat Fancy magazine.

Suffice to say, my brain kept adding 'Elric' every time I saw the word 'kitten' and my attempt to eat lunch dissolved into several failed attempts to avoid repeatedly spraying the nearby wall with chili.

( And I'm probably wasting even more time by typing these out... )

Now I have this horrible urge to write and draw up an Elric zoo-mag. *facepalm*

Not for the faint-hearted. Rated NC-17 for graphic Peep-on-Peep action.

I despise snow, ice, sleet, freezing rain and especially those itty bitty perfectly round bits of ice that collect in your shoes. Just came inside from shoveling... and discovered that my hair had frozen. Yee hah.

Nuuurrggh, we are back from con, safe and sound and freaking tired. Katsucon 13 comments and list of doujinshi purchases later. Must attempt to unpack some stuff and get some sleep before heading off to evil work at 3:00am. Fttt. >_<;;;

Mr. del Toro, you are an evil, evil man. And a fricking genius. Mr. Jones, your ability to don make-up effects that portray you thinner than a toothpick continue to astound me. The faun and the thing-without-eyeballs-that-eats-faeries-in-1.2.3-bites were both awesome. But I still love Abe more.

Ohgod, that film hurts so good. <3

I can't decide whether Gaia Online is vaguely entertaining or just retarded. Maybe it's the way the avatars do the Scooby Doo shuffle whenever they move from point A to point B. Or the collecting of sundry trash, insects and foliage. Or the goddamn lake full of guppies and old boots. Or the horrid grammar skills of what appears to be 99.99% of the other users.

I so did not just spend an hour and a half playing that freaking word scramble game. Nope, no, I didn't.

Snagged this quiz off heerodiscarded...


Don't Fuck With Me Seme
Take Are you a Seme or an Uke? today!
Created with Rum and Monkey's Personality Test Generator.

Okay, the title of the new Harry Potter book makes my head feel like it's going to explode:

"Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows"

Huh, what? "Deathly Hallows?" Something about that particular string hits me like a root canal; it's such a shame that those poor hallows are hovering on the verge of death - perhaps Harry can save them! WTF, a hallow isn't even a thing or place unless it's a reference to All Hallows, in which case I'd love to see a date on the calendar dying; hallows, hallowed, hallowing is a verb, no matter which way you turn it on its head. >_<;

I think I'll go pass out now and hope there's a new e-mail from Barnes&Nobles in my inbox, apologizing for releasing a typoed title of "Harry Potter and the Deadly Hollows" or something similar. Nrrrrgh. *twitch* I'm not sure whether this pained me more or less than discovering that the newly revised packaging on the 25ct bags of pig ear dog treats at work reads "Dogs love um!" on the bag. Okay, so maybe I'm just so anal retentive about spelling/grammar/punctuation because "I is a college graduate."

Well, I finally got my cards/packages mailed out yesterday and today, so they can all show up the day after Christmas. XD;; I'd blame my procrastination on my work schedule, what with the sudden change - I went from 10pm-6am to 3:30am-11am and every fiber of my being is utterly loathing this, especially now that I'm stuck listening to canned Xmas music and being annoyed horrifically by holiday shoppers - but I'd be lying if I didn't allow for my own right-down laziness. >_<;;

So, apologies to anyone who receives their stuff late; it's entirely my fault and not the postal service's. Although I will cause massive destruction if they lose anything.

Going with Kev's sister and mom tomorrow to look at bridesmaids' dresses. OMGWTF, I don't think I've never looked seriously at things with skirts twice in one month. O_o Now I just need to collect my MoH for dress-hunting. Of course, my damned schedule insists on making things interesting... "You want to go look at frilly things at -what- time in the morning?" >.>

EDIT: Dress-hunting = success. Wheeee! One less thing on the immense list. Now maybe my mother will stop greeting me with "Did you look at bridesmaids' dresses yet, so I can look for my dress?!" every single time I see her. Ohmigod, mom, you can finally STFU now! >_<;;

On an entertaining note, when I announced that I was headed out to do this hunting of dresses when my shift ended, my manager gave me a amused look and said that sounded so odd coming from me. Is my natural distaste for anything but jeans so obvious? XD;

After watching Gankutsuou marathon-style with innerdemons777 and jantra, I decided to read the unabridged novel cough cough, silly me. Ploughing through it during meals and lunch breaks has gotten me to page 217 of 1462. It's not that the thing's too long... I just keep getting pissed when I have to put it down to go do other things... like work and sleep and interact with living beings. *headdesks repeatedly*

Anyway, my recent foraging on JPQueen included a brief Gankutsuou search, just for curiousity's sake, since I really don't want and can't afford another doujin obsession. Those who've seen the whole anime series will understand why I totally laughed my ass off when I blundered across this one.

Oh, Albert, you're so silly. And clueless. And everybody's uke, from what I can see on JPQ.

Swiped from nightspavilion; 'must watch' is definitely a correct assessment. I can't believe they actually did the whole freaking first level. XDDD

Which Classic Story Role Do You Play?


- You Are The Apt Mind

"I know that. And that. And yes, that too."


You have brains, and you are not afraid to show it. Your intellect and intelligence may have others constantly asking for your help with things that take a lot of thought or are difficult puzzles. Academic values are held highest in your opinion, and you may also have a bleak view of humanity. You may find trouble dealing with emotional issues, however - as they are illogical and inunderstandable. Your friends consist of intelligent and intellectual people to challange you and continue your mental growth. Even in the easiest of times, you are not afraid to show anyone just how much you know.

Take this quiz!

*SNORRRRRT* XD

Edit: Okay, okay, so I just proved this meme correct by re-reading it and picking out a misspelled word. *facepalm*

Well, the health crisis is over, although the medical establish's still got no idea whatsoever why I got falling down sick in the first place. It's relieving and disturbing all at once, because while I'm overjoyed that I no longer feel like Armstrong did jumping jacks on me, I'd kind of like to know why I got sick. *mutter*

Anyway, I really really really need to stop visiting JPQueen on such a regular basis. I keep resisting the urge to add it as a quicklink bookmarker, but I may as well give up the battle.

While I'm on the doujinshi subject:

heerojf, I promise to get you that Lazies raw scan this weekend. Sorry I didn't send it sooner, but I forgot to take a thumb drive to innerdemons777's last weekend and then spent most of that time semi-conscious.

Oh, and if anyone else on my itty-bitty f-list is interested too, I'm willing to share; just comment and I'll see about getting a zip or something to you. If you missed my horrid review earlier this month, it's EdxAlxHei and most definitely NC-17ish. *dangles teasingly*

And if anyone felt inclined to translate the scans, I'd be immensely and embarrassingly grateful.

Edit: ESTABLISHMENT! Ment! OMG, my typing skills totally blow.
