It's not very annoying. It's ovary annoying.

You know what I like? When you're midway through writing an entry for your journal and accidentally delete the whole thing. What fun![/sarcasm + Miranda quote, all in one]

Speaking of Miranda, here's another thing I like (non-sarcastically this time): when the comments to a post (particularly a serious one where I'm simultaneously made to feel understood & heard) somehow manage to turn into their own mini Fandom Fest of Conversion. Thanks to those who participated, I'm now up to the second episode of the second series (a.k.a. "season" in American Speak) of Miranda & have finally stubbornly agreed to give Castle a shot. Also: tempertemper will probably never be able to get up from her television/computer screen again.

My work here is done.

In other news, I'd like to wish gina227 a very Happy Birthday. Just for you, I'll try to watch Farscape soon. (I've been meaning to anyway, but shh. It still counts.)

While on the subject of fannish things--TWO DAYS, people. March Madness. Things are about to get buck wild up in here. (in reality, I'm not sure how heavily I'll campaign this time--simply due to my mood--but I'm still uber excited to observe the ridiculousness. I'm sure I'll get dragged in one way or another)

In the meantime, the Cliche and Crack Meme over at bitesize_bones has been entertaining me to no end. I haven't written anything for it yet, but I've been prompting like crazy, and I've gotten a LOT of great stories back in return. I so, so recommend hopping over there to check it out if you haven't already.

On a really random note, since I just got dinner: does anyone else here sometimes order extra food (for leftovers) and then try to give off an "I could have someone else here with me/on their way, YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW, hence the unflappable poker face!"-vibe when paying (of course giving off said vibe involves no actual words/actions--only you thinking it, like they'll magically ~pick up the energy~) as if that "excuses" your excessive gluttony & solitary existence?

Just curious.

P.S. Papa Johns chicken strips are delicious.

Moving on. A book I've been waiting for at the library for months (Half Empty by David Rakoff) finally came in yesterday. Everything else--i.e. other unfinished books + the HP audiobooks (sorry, keenai)--is getting put on hold so I can read it.

Re: my actual life, I'm still extremely stressed. I'm doing my best to look at things bit by bit. Prioritize. Figure out what I can take care of first that will make other tasks easier. Maybe that will help some. Right now, I feel sort of frozen. Something has to give.

So, first task? Laundry. Then I'll feel comfortable enough to go shopping in daylight hours (right now I feel like a bum--walking around here at night is fine, but I'm not going into a mall), so I can buy a new pair of jeans and probably two tops. After that I'll walk over to the nearby cell center (where my old coworker/friend works) & see if I can apply in person. I'm not thinking any further than that yet.

There is another thing lately too that might be bumming me out, and I've been trying to address it over the last few days in my own way--( lgbtq alienation )

For my Vid of the Day, I'll cheat and post one more song. Thanks goes to nomnivore for introducing me to it earlier this week (it was one of her answers to the LJ Writer's Block question, "What 5 songs would you play at your friend's wedding?" I LOVE YOU, TIMMY. Hahaha). It's been on a repeating loop ever since.
