Fast & Furious 6
May. 25th, 2013 05:10 pmAs far as I knew, the film was called Fast & Furious 6, but when I went to watch it the title that came up on the screen was FURIOUS 6, which made me burst out laughing in what would soon become a pattern. (BECAUSE THE LAST MOVIE WAS FAST 5, DON'T YOU KNOW.)

Her: You gonna rename Steve to Jim?
Me: Jim can be my laptop. Cas is my external drive. Maybe I'll name my phone Hannibal because it's so persnickety.
Him: Hannibal's gonna eat all your contacts.
Me: ...point.

Writing update!
May. 15th, 2013 12:00 pmFinally, finally posted that auction fic. It had been eating at me, and it's an amazing load off my shoulders to have it up. Hopefully,
radiophile will like it enough that it makes up for being oh... about five months late.;;
Now to get the REST of the To Do list in order. With this done, I'm down to six active projects. Of course, other projects crept their way in (gdi brain) and I'm doing some Original Writing that takes some time. (May make a locked post about that later.) At least the official list shrinks! It was double digits! I MAKE PROGRESS.
I also decided that the Fairytale fic is just going to have to become an original. I kind of hate to do it, but trying to find places to etch on the serial numbers was killing it. So it's going to get removed from the To Do List and set aside until I have time to deal with it properly.
(flop) According to the numbers I just ran, if I can just manage to write about 45k and edit about the rest, I'll be finished with this mess and able to concentrate on new stuff rather than stuff that's been clogging the works. Guilt over unfinished fics is a killer.

May. 14th, 2013 06:59 pmWhat's cool about this cover is that while the original juxtaposed the emo lyrics with a pop tune to make it ironic and sad, this version turns the song into something angier, almost dangerous? This guy's had his heart broken and he's pining, but he's pining in the way that, say, Hannibal Lecter pines.
Movie-watching
May. 12th, 2013 08:54 pmThe plan this weekend was to watch Iron Man 3 again, which
zen-ish and I did on Saturday. Star Trek was supposed to come out on the 16th, so we figured we'd catch that next weekend.
Only zen discovered that they were ALREADY showing Trek ahead of supposed schedule (the hell!) so instead of being able to work myself up to it, we just went ahead and watched it. No spoilers here, except ~SPOOOOOOOOCK~.
Funnily enough, I'd had a dream before going to watch Iron Man 3 that I'd watched Trek instead, and met Zoe and Zachary at the after party. Obviously it was a ~SIGN~ my brain knew that the film was already showing in cinemas despite the erroneous announcement schedule.
