a list

Things wot I have learned today:

1. I am still so emotionally invested in Sam and Dean, even though I like to pretend I'm not. I haven't been able to change the songs on my iPod since I got my new computer, since it's the only copy I have of all the old stuff that was on Elphaba before she kicked it, and so I still have tons of the music I listened to religiously that meant Sam&Dean to me. While writing in the Library today, I had it on shuffle and Brothers On a Hotel Bed came on, and I started sniffling. I really hope the finale tears my heart out in a good way - the kind of way that IMToD did - and not in an "oh, Eric Kripke, how do you get funding" way. I'm insanely worried.
   
   
2. schneestern thinks I should make out with kashmir1 at Shore Leave.
   
   
3. Rereading an author's entire body of work is very satisfying. The past three days have seen me going through thegrrrl2002's website, and can I just say that if you're new around here and haven't stumbled upon it yet, her and yin_again wrote wristband porn. I always forget, and then it hits me over the head like a very, very attractive plank of wood.
   
   
4. Hot, humid weather makes me want to listen to the Juno Soundtrack. It's so...sunshine-y. If that's a word. Which it isn't, but whatever. Here it is for you, in case you haven't yet experienced its awesome.

5. August Rush is an incredibly awesome movie; you should all see it if you can. Robin Williams was fabulous, mostly because I would never, ever expect that kind of role from him, and Kerri Russel keeps amazing me lately with how absolutely beautiful she's become. Not that she wasn't pretty before, but when you see her on the screen with her cello in August Rush, it's just - wow. Stunning. The entire main cast stunned me, actually. Freddie Highmore is so young to be playing such a big part, but he pulled it off and left me madly in love with August.

I DENY THIS! LIES ALL LIES! I NEVER SAID THAT!

Also, I HEART the Juno soundtrack and omg I cried SO HARD at the ending of August Rush and I NEVER cry at movies. I blame the music. That movie has a FANTASTIC soundtrack too. Although I have to shuffle that last song away every time it comes up in public or I start crying again.

ALSO I NEVER SAID THAT THING ABOUT JULIE LA LA LA LIES LIES LIES!

I saw "August Rush" a couple of weeks back and it stunned me. It's such a beautiful fairytale about how music brings people together, literally. And I love Freddie Highmore--he already owned Finding Neverland and he keeps on owning films. And I love "August's Rhapsody".

THANK YOU! I somehow had never read this before now. SO HOT!

OMG, I live in fear of some reading too many of my fics in a row and seeing all my overused tropes and thinking "jeeze, grrrl needs to get over her thing with Rodney's skin and John's wrists and the armpits and the word 'nuzzle' and does Rodney really need to say the word 'really' 20 times per fic?"

But uh, thank you. ::blushes:: And writing that wristband porn with yin was a whole heck of a lot of fun. She totally rocks.

GAH, I am so worried about the SPN finale. :(

Freddie Highmore is the CUTEST LITTLE THING EVER.

I think you should make out with ME at Shore Leave. Just sayin.

I feel so disconnected from SPN right now. Everyone's hyperventilating about the finale and I... haven't watched since hiatus. Oops?

thegrrrl2002 is fabulous, she was definitely one of the authors I INHALED over my couple months of initial John/Rodney obsession :D
