6:57p It's like I forgot how to multi-task. LOL I'm rushing around trying to get ready for my vacation (I leave on Sunday). Eventually, I'll be at this fabulous spa for a few days before heading to my sister's. I CANNOT WAIT. However, before I can go, I have so much to do. All the presents have to be wrapped and packed for them for xmas and my nephew's first birthday. I have to get the pet sitter in here so I can show her what she needs to do with Champ. I have to finish laundry, pack, finish decorating the house for the holidays (so it's all done when I get home) and somewhere in all that, I MUST get my hair done. Oh and did I mention that I have to work too? So, instead of focusing on all of this, I ordered myself a bday present, the BLACKBERRY CURVE 8330 and I got it in red...to match my car. ROFL. I'm just kidding, it was either that or orange and since I'm a diva, I went with red. WOOHOO my enhanced license came so I can easily cross the border into Canada and back, so it's official, I've got all I need for the trip. current mood: excited

7:25p Accepted! I just got an e-mail from Shawn, one of the owners of Torquere, saying she read A Hidden Magic and they want to publish it! :D They said they weren't going to be in the office until Monday because of the holiday, but it looks like they're still working. Not exactly shocking with a small business; I thought it might happen quickly, but I didn't want to really hope, you know? Anyway, this is awesome. [beam] If you want me, I'll just be wandering around six inches off the floor somewhere.... :D Angie

9:55p Coco Before Chanel: Thumbs down from me Cross-posted at femme_asylum. Really really did not like "Coco Before Chanel." Audrey Tautou is gorgeous and I could have looked at her all day, but I found her character's motivations unfathomable, and I had no sense at all where Chanel's great talent and style came from, nor was there any sense of the force in design she would one day become. This was nothing but an overblown romance that somehow reduced everything she did to being about some guy. Nauseating. I HATED it. Beautiful, yes. But blech. I wish someone would make the Chanel film that is in my head. Because this is DEFINITELY not it.

8:26p Ok. nerilka24 and I just finished watching episodes 101 and 102 at qaf_marathons. But it's not to late for you to join the squee. You can either: A)Watch it later and follow along with our comments while you do so and join in with them. The beauty of the internets. Conversations can take place over days. Or you can B) Come join me at qaf_marathons in 30 minutes. At 10pm EST. For episode 512 and 513. ETA: Nerilka had to go to bed. I will be on my own for 512 and 513. *sniffles*

3:45p 101, 102, 512, and 513 Tonight! Just a reminder We (hopefully it'll be a we and not just an I) will be watching the beginning and the end tonight at qaf_marathons. I will get started at 8pm EST, watch 101 and 102 straight through. Then probably take a few minutes intermission and then watch 512 and 513 straight through starting at about 10pm EST. Please join me! :D And if you've never marathoned with me before just an fyi that I don't often get very deep with my comments, but you can feel free to. Or stay on the shallow end with me. Why am I doing this? Because I have an urge to watch them both in one sitting and look at where they all started out and where they ended up without a ton of focus tonight on the hows and whys they got there.

1:12p CHANEL! I can't handle the crowds on Black Friday, and besides, my holiday shopping, such as it is, is done. (We're buying for the kids only this year, due to the financial problems of one of my brothers). So my sisters in law and I are going to see "Coco Before Chanel," while my brothers and their sons do their manly, boy-ly thing without us. And then this evening, not_yet_defined is doing a marathon of 101-102 and 512-513 over at qaf_marathons, so that's what I'll be doing when I get home! See you then!

7:48a For Bunny This scene always makes me melt. So much so that just hearing the song in my ipod at work makes me melt.

7:37a Permanently Insane? Are you permanently insane? First person on my flist to respond to this post by NOON EST will get a permanently insane account from me. If you are already permanently insane. You can gift the account to one of your favorite QaF asylums like qaf_drabbles or bj_action, or any QaF asylum you like. In return. You must post at least one fandom post today as well. A drabble. A vid. Some icons. A discussion at qaf_coffeeclub. Whatever you like. Happy Black Friday! :D Ready. Set. Go! ETA: the most awesome besamislabios won! and generously gifted the account to bj_action in the hopes that it might see a little action soon. hmm...

qaf_coffeeclub [ sandpapertears ]

9:15p more of a general discussion than anything. First of all, Happy Thanksgiving to all of the American members! This topic came up during a car ride home with my roommate, so it seems a relevant good wish to make before proposing it haha SO ANYWAY. My roommate and I were talking, and we came to the conclusion that every sex scene that has ever been in QAF was used as some sort of plot device or has been important to a character arc. We tried to stump each other with this theory, but couldn't do it! So I need to bring it to the bigger table. They're all aesthetic, of course, haha, but: do you all agree with this unproven theory? Was there a point to every one? Or was this another thing Cowlip couldn't get consistent? Feel free to point out any that you can't see the bigger picture~ behind or whatever. This holiday weekend I'll need some good entertainment. (AND SPEAKING OF LONG WEEKENDS, if any of the members here are into the RP scene here on IJ, a small group of people and I are trying to put together a group storyline that would take place in real time and because I don't want to openly waste room advertising when it's just a side note here: the information on that is all here, if anyone is interested.)

12:07p What the Gusmas? First, Happy Thanksgiving to all! A couple of new fandom friends don't know the origin of the name of the current celebration in qaf_drabbles , "Gusmas," so I thought I'd explain. Once upon a time, four fangirls wrote a story together, and the unbelievable url_girl illustrated it. (Well, we didn't write it, exactly -- it was divinely inspired, so it might be better said we channeled it.) It was the story of Assbaby!Jesus (Gus for short), and of course, it's his birth we celebrate during the Solstikwanzanukkamas Season, which runs from Thanksgiving to New Year's Day. Be warned if you choose to read this fic; you're sure to end up on the bus to the hot place if you do. Assbaby!Jesus: A Brian/Justin Christmas story

7:29p I can't believe I've only posted like 3 times this month (not including posts in the asylums). I don't think this has ever happened before except for when I first started a journal. Champ continues to improve. His last test results were so much better and so much closer to the normal range that I cried a little on the way home. Plus, in one week, he gained 13 ounces. So, I've decided to go ahead with my vacation plans (which I sorely need at this point). My sister is planning something special for my 40th and a dear friend is coming into town. After that, we're heading out on a road trip ending in a spa for a couple of days in Vermont. From there, we'll part company and I'll continue on to my sister's for Reason's first birthday. I'll be a few days early, but we're going to celebrate anyway. I can finally get excited because I found someone to stay with Charger and Champ on top of my sis checking in on them. I also decided not to cook dinner this year for Thanksgiving. I cheated and bought everything pre-made and I'm so happy about it. I'll have time to do the things I want to do. Happy sigh. On a fandom note, I want to know something. Tell me a scene that makes you melt. It has to be a scene that causes your heart to skip a beat every single time you watch it. Post about it in your journal...or here in comments. I can't wait to see what you've got for me. :D current mood: good
