(Read bottom-to-top, naturally.)
I know, I know, we should've know better. -_-
A few days ago, I gave in to the secret urge to find fanficabout Rossiu's angsty unrequited crush on Simon that I've been harbouring ever since I finished watching TTGL, and now my brain's gone on a Gurren Lagann kick again. XD I wanna make icons, but VLC is really really not a fan of .mkv files, and taking screencaps in Media Player Classic is like pulling teeth. Maybe I'll redownload all the episodes in .avi format later, idk.
Also, I don't even like high-school stories that much, but you have to love a series with a canon high-school AU. (Though I admit, as my actual time in high school recedes into the past, high-school stories are growing on me. Growing from dislike into indifference, but growing nevertheless.)
Tim asked me to do some concept art for a game he's working on, and it totally brought back my drawing groove. XD I should really figure out how to make it so whether I manage to produce creative things isn't determined by my mood. That would be awesome. Anyway, when I get back to my place* there'll probably be a massive art post sometime.
I'm working on a post pimping out one of my favourite book series of all time, but I'm a little hesitant to post it, because I am so exaggeratedly emotionally invested in the world and the characters that I'm afraid someone'll comment something along the lines of "I read it and thought it was pretty lame." T_T
Also I still have 200-odd pages left of the final book, and WHAT IF IT SUDDENLY TURNS RUBBISH? *irrational fretting*
PS: Oh gosh, Hiling, you are too adorable. Come live with me and be my girlfriend and we'll go look for bugs together, I promise.
PPS: Oh yeah, and I watched the first two episodes of the new season of Merlin. It's still pretty awful. Episode 2 did make me laugh out loud a few times, though. (I think it was on purpose.)
*Our staircase is being ripped out and replaced, so I'm staying at Tim's for a few days.

Me: finished!
Tim: :O
Tim: rubbish right?
Me: yeah, pretty anticlimactic
Tim: :P
Me: Only a robot the size of a galaxy? Psh.
Tim: didn't think you would like it
Tim: you're a girl after all
Tim: didn't have ANY dresses
Me: well, it had a few dresses
Me: no ponies, though
Me: or unicorns
Tim: but the dresses weren't on men, that's the only reason girls watch gundam
Me: True
Me: Yoko was wearing a suit in the last scene, though, I approved of that

It's only 9 but it feels like it is midnight. Why? Why, world? Explain yourself.
Someday I will get some video-editing software and make the fanvids my music-shuffle occasionally suggests to me and I will be the most cracktastical fanvid maker EVER. Do not attempt to claim that you don't want to see some kind of Gundam 00* thing (maybe Setsuna/Marina Ismail themed? I dunno) set to Edwin Starr's "War", because you would be DECEIVING YOURSELF, my good man.
I think back in the halcyon** days of when I was first watching Firefly I was going to make a River Tam one set to "Crazy" by Gnarls Barkley. Epic.
I found some slashy Gurren Lagann fanart ENTIRELY BY ACCIDENT and now I cannot unsee the epic love-quadrangle. It wasn't even serious fanart. The internet has ruined me.
Apparently, when something is whale-like, it is cetaceous. A cetaceous pod. Also, the collective noun for skunks is odour, so claims Wikipeida. An odour of skunks.
I take crack breaks like other people take breaks for cigarettes.
...Yes, the word crack has completely lost its original meaning for me.
*NOT THAT THIS SERIES HAS EATEN MY LIFE OR ANYTHING WHAT WHAT. I need to get someone else besides Tim into this who will be a fantard about it on the internet with me. Maybe I will force Steph to watch some of it over Christmas. *scheme*
**Huh. I always thought this was "halycoon", which is how I have been pronouncing it in my head. Luckily I don't talk as pretentious as I LJ, or that could have been embarassing.

I'm awake and I can't get back to sleep. >_< And here I thought me going to bed at normal, human hours meant my sleeping habits had sorted themselves out. Apparently not.
Oh well, this way I'll be able to go down to Tesco when they open and get fresh croissants, in lieu of having a real bakery to go to. (How can there not be a market for a bakery in this town?) And their croissants are pretty delish, to speak the truth.

I have seen the first 6 episodes of Gurren Lagann, and they make. My. Life. even more than I thought it would. Most ridiculously fantastically unapologetically crazily BADASS thing in existence.
This means I now have to agonise about which of my Top 5 favourites to switch out AGAIN. Damn, you, MAL, why can't you allow a list of 10? (Srs bsns, my friends.)
Tim: man, he's so lucky, keeps getting boobs to the face.
Me: Seriously. So, does that mean all you have to do to get boob'd is be a bit of a coward and hang around with an overconfident arse?
Tim: Well, you're a bit of an overconfident arse, so... I'm scared! :D?
Large-breasted women consistently do not appear out of nowhere to clutch either of us to their bosoms. It is the tragedy that defines our lives.
