Oh, yeah. While I was loitering around awkwardly before the Wil Anderson signing, this seedy guy walked past and quite brazenly stared at my chest. Like, I caught his eye and glared and he just ducked his head down again to stare. I wish I had taken a step and kneed him viciously in the groin.

Anyway. My father has jetted off to the US of A to spend much of December in New York. This means he gets to see Rockefeller Center, go ice skating in Central Park, and pointedly will not be buying me TMNT related things, nor rainbow related things when he's in San Fran, and the whole thing is just very unfair. I hope he enjoys the cooler weather, and I will try to not feel too bitter when it's 5000 degrees* here in Australia. (*Slight exaggeration, but only slight.)

The M*A*S*H* movie was on telly yesterday. I started watching it and was a bit... meh about the whole thing, so went back upstairs to commence a marathon of BJ/Hawkeye glee. I have been spoilt by Alan's Hawkeye, I freely admit it. Oh, BJ/Hawkeye. What subtext? It's just text. Why aren't you all watching it right now? Oh, you have lives? Very good, carry on. But seriously, the adorable bromance. They spend a lot of time showering together and trying to make each other smile. I love them.

I've been posting way too much lately, I do apologise. Squeeful things have been happening, is all. Like today,

Slight back story? I used to have a fairly massive crush on this man, thanks largely to The Glass House, and his Sunday Roast pieces. They were seriously the best part of my weekends during High School, especially; sneaking into the kitchen and stealing dad's paper, and giggling my way through breakfast. The first GNW taping we went to this year was the episode with Wil, and Ross Noble and his smoke machine. I was most gleeful.

Anyway. I felt it was important to honour my inner fifteen year old fangirl with the trip into the city for the signing. Possibly did not need to get there at 9am, as I spent the next three hours loitering and trying not to purchase books to pass the time. (I did have a half-assed search for The Girl Who Swallowed Bees, because it used to be on their database, but the woman I asked just laughed at the name and said no, so, that was that.)

Kind of weird, how they ran it, and me and two other girls were just loitering around the table uselessly for about an hour. Wil turned up and gleefully went off to the cafe to get tea, and eventually the staff got us to form a little line by the desk, right in time for the lovely girl in front of me to run right into Wil lol. I think he was trying to pawn off his bowl of candy to her, to stop him from eating it all himself.

He was truly lovely :) The girl in front of me was getting it signed for her sister, and he passed on a big 'merry Christmas' for her, and then turned and grinned at me, and my inner fifteen year old totally didn't flail around inside at all. Okay, maybe a bit. Maybe a lot, shut up, he's lovely. Something along these lines happened, I think...

Me: Hey!
Wil: Hey there! (or possibly 'hey darl', idk, as I said, I was struggling with my inner fifteen year old and refuse to be judged for this) Who's this for?
Me: Emma
Wil: Iiis Emma you?
Me: Yeah.
Wil: Thanks so much for coming out today.
Me: Are you kidding? I was so excited.
Wil: It saves me from sitting here on my own all day...
Me: That would be interesting...
Wil: That would be embarrassing, that's what that would be.
Me: Maaaybe.

And there were more big smiles and a 'have a good day' or something, and I went outside to flail at my mother on the phone :)

I of course initially failed to notice he'd written something above his signature, so went and curled up in Kinokuniya and spent a good ten minutes trying to figure out the words, before laughing out loud and drawing glares from the girls reading Twilight in the corner.

'To Emma. Now worth 50c on eBay. Wil.'

Hee. I am ever so glad I went. What a lovely, friendly man :) Thanks, Wil!

ETA: I used the word 'lovely' about eighteen times in this post haha. It was my main impression, apparently. SO LOVELY.

i blame jack sparrow

a) I've been ridiculously fidgety and unsettled for the last few days also, argh. I suspect the heat is a large factor, and there was the recent attack of several cockroaches and a family of moths, and just other stuff. I haven't even tried to write anything in... idk, a week, because it's just too hot and I just can't focus long enough. *headdesk*

b)

Okay, originally I wrote up this big spiel about still feeling awkward about getting the photo with Paul, but I deleted it. I've had some fabulous GNW experiences this year, still flail around like a school girl at the memory of Paul offering me drugs (uh, jokingly) and however many times he insulted my hat, and as mentioned, I got to see him (and Tim) sing and it's just been a fantastic year, and not being completely squeeful is fucking ridiculous. I will squee about these things when I am an old hermit writer woman.

And I'm not not squeeful :) I was just mortified and anxious about holding him up, and have felt awkward about the photo ever since, and just blush to look at it, and hope we didn't shit him when getting it done. But hey. I realise I need to try and be a productive whir this summer, rather than the mess that I usually am. But this is normal for me. I also like to stress in advance about jobs that don't exist, and feel apologetic towards hypothetical commuters that may be unwillingly educated when we have loud and ridiculous discussions about pirate!Johnny!slash on trains, so. (At the same time, I know even this is coming off all very 'Oh, I'm so sad I've been in the same room as one of my favourite people in the world and it's just not good enough', so shutting up now.)

c)

I had of course forgotten cute and bizarre from Saturday. Cute in the form of Mikey referring to Tim as 'Timbo', and all the 'Timmy's from Paul. Bizarre behaviour in the group of people who actually left half way through to go to Schoolies, and prompted a hasty reshuffling of the audience, and also the people who started talking uncomfortably loudly during the song. Bzuh? Paul was singing? No talky.

* Lol, oh his poor mother. My mum doesn't like me saying the f-word.
* I do love his 'I'm so bad' smile. Oh so much.
* Oh Julia <3 So much of this was cut out lol.
* Haha Fiona, the poor dear.
* Yaaaay at the dig at the Herald Sun.
* I did wonder what they were leading up to with the 7 Days panels this year hehe.
* Right on, sister.

* Peter Berner is so much like my dad, in every way... and they email... lol wth.
* Ahaahhhh Mikey!goldfish.
* I was sure Paul or Josh was gonna touch that stupid thing.
* Tripod were awesome!
* Kids will grow up reading Twilight and won't read the classics like Harry Potter! LOL.

* TIMMYYYY :D He got confused obviously, flirting with Cal. Ohh, his smile.
* They cut out the special reference to Rich!
* A laaaaady fitness instructor?
* That is the last time I'm going to the Jim with you! ETA: What does that even mean? GYM.
* They cut out Tim's 'male bonding' shtick :/

* Frank did so well haha.
* Awwwwww hand holding :D The Tim/Paul squee.

* ... tell me they didn't cut out the song. Really. I don't remember where it was...
* Relly bug wist islend!

* Good on ya, Mikey, I agree re: Twilight.
* I enjoy Tim knowing about GNW being in the paper... ahah which anyone would, but still. FRIDGE.
* Ohhh, that song, I don't even. <3 Tim and Paul smiling, Tim watching Paul, the adorable.

* Isn't Awkward the capital of NZ?
* Lol isn't that a Dylan Moran joke? His penis would look like a kitten's head?
* I want a swiss-army cock!
* Australian name for Twilight: SUCK THIS.

* Oh yeah, AND he drives a vespa... like dad used to...
* Oh, this is so much fun-WHO THE HELL ARE YOU.
* He blew her mind. Aha, so deadpan.
* He broke his wife's brain with his penis. *grin*

* Uh, Claaaire, I follow YOU on twitter... XD
* Christians telling me I'm going to hell is like a hippy threatening to punch me in my aura.

* 911! :D Laughy Timmy.
* Ooo, Mikey made a Batman/Robin joke.
* Ahahahah poor Josh, Tom hit him SO HARD.
* Those fucking glitter canons scared me every time.
* Mikey and Paul huuuug and high five!
* More siiingiiiing :D
* ... That's not a joke... eheheh it wasn't, either.
* Miming and smiling.

umm-maaaah

Mon, 09 Nov 2009 11:07:42 GMT

1) Wil Anderson's doing a signing in the city this Wednesday, and considering the rather large crush I had on him back in the day, possibly I'll end up going to that... idk. Maybe. I am rather broke though. *ponders*
2) Candide for the Sydney Festival in January includes Paul McDermott as Pangloss, and it's free, so uh. Yes, chances are I may mosey my way over to that and freak out a bit. Opera = singing. I are clevr. (How early would one have to get to the Domain in order to be able to see, like, anything? Jesus.)
3) In regards to Danneel/Jensen... eh. Haha even with this news, I'm still a bit 'there's no waaaaay he's into girls, what the hell?' *happily continues to blank out probable reality* Also, why do they do these things right before Cons? Gee, that's gonna be fun for them all.

* Um-maaaah!
* Paul's old person shtick hehe, I didn't think it would air.
* Ridden hard and put away wet, Mikey Robins!
* J-Mooooo and Wil, yay <3 And Claire looked especially gorgeous!
* 'Thanks, Mikey.' XD
* Wil's never been rear-ended. BULLSHIT.
* Paul's squealy noises while Mikey was trying to answer lol
* Aww, cmon fella.

* The props are so inventive, I swear. I want the rat with the top hat.
* Wil's reaction to the perfume haha, and Cam playing the Britney song XD
* I still grin at all the 'yes mate's and such, it'll never not be adorable, idk.
* Take that, international star!
* Men can help ease PMT pain by SHUTTING THE FUCK UP.
* Julia's aggression ahahahah. I love her. Giggly Paul!
* He gets a great laugh from the other side of the sliding door...

* Awwww snuggly <3
* Hee Julia's mime. So drawn out and frustratingly hilarious.

* Couldn't get Breathalyzer for four days... XD
* This is why I need a dog.
* Must say, I'm quite curious about his year 12 formal now.

* I still don't reeeeally get what's going on, but pretty nonetheless.
* I want to Poland... invade.

* Shexy dancing XD Heee Paul and Mikey, I love you. I think icons are needed.
* THEY LEFT IN HIS HISSY FIT! and Mikey walking away in hysterics! :DDDDDDDD Goooold.
* They cut out Claire complaining about the hat, and Mikey being all 'OH SORRY. DID THEY MAKE YOU WEAR A STUPID HAT. YOU POOR THING. THE HORROR.'

Haven't touched my NaNo yet today, so I'm gonna pick a Disney movie, try to chill out, and try to get another 3000 words out. I've just been fidgetty and stressy all day, idk why really. Ugh.

PAUL MCDERMOTT. OPERA. CANDIDE. AAHHHHH.

no it is you who should shut up.

Sat, 07 Nov 2009 11:23:01 GMT

Why is it that whenever I (or anyone else, judging by the internet searches) ask about good jobs for shy people/people with social anxiety, the immediate response is along the lines of 'suck it up and just get whatever job you can find'? Um, helpful? I used to have to walk up and down the back street by the video store and psyche myself up for five minutes before I could even go inside. It made me feel sick, just ironing the shirt. I do understand that this is weird, and a problem, but while I'm at university at least, surely I can just take the less-stressful road and look around for a job that won't start me back down the panic-attack road? At least I'm attempting to find a job?

Also, I mean, it's obviously not why I want to be a writer; I love writing, it's my life. But I think I've probably been writing for most of my life because it's the only way I can confidently communicate. I have verbal dyslexia, I swear. I cannot speak to save my life, even when I'm just with good friends. And I'm the most socially awkward person in the entire world, and I'm sure I just come off as plain rude most of the time, instead of painfully shy, so just... let me have a antisocial job, okay? Please? Where can I find one? My skills include typing and procrastination. Good fast typist. Unconventional method, but fast. Can I be a typist? Oh please?

Hee, we didn't get to see the second taping. We were at the end of the line for the second show, of course, and one of the ticket guys came up all hesitant like, uhhh, are you Emma? He actually pronounced my name right so I completely blanked him at first lol, it is such a rarity. But they were overbooked and trying to turn down regulars first, which was fine. I was rather exhausted and sore anyway, it was probably a good thing. (I shall of course be very sad if anyone super awesome was there, but eh.)

However, the first show was fabulous. (In many senses. Very gaaaay.)

Paul's been in such a happy giggly mood lately! Really funny show; got to see Wil Anderson (still kinda crushing, idk) and Julia Morris (<33333), aaaand John Moloney and Virginia Gay from that All Saints thing. Who incidentally was apparently a big Paul fangirl.

Errm, a few things that made my day:

* Oh, it was Free Slurpee day, also. I had two :) I think I accidentially called a girl in the 7/11 'stupid'; I meant to say it to my friend, but turned around and he was gone, and she was there. I do apologise. Er. To the internet.
* Wil insisting that he'd never been 'rammed from behind', and Mikey's *coughBULLSHITcough* XD
* Mikey saying the words 'Green' and 'Day' and implying that Good Charlotte were a pale imitation. Oh yes, I was terribly excited.
* Umm. Claire/Paul snuggles for the finale promo, and Mikey giving Paul a reach around.
* Shexy dancing! XD And Bum Bongos!
* Possibly my favourite part of the day is what won't even be aired, but simply Paul trying to wheel his chair in between the two desks, failing, and flipping the fuck out, trying to force it through the gap, wailing, begging for help, and Mikey just absolutely losing his shit, to the point where he had to stand up and walk away because he was laughing so hard. I have not laughed that much in ages. Oh God.

Pertaining to shexy dancing and Bum Bongos: For Julia's song, they all got up and were dancing behind her in a line; Julia, Paul, Virginia, then Mikey, and toward the end, Paul bent over and Mikey was using his behind as a drum. But apparently the first take wasn't good enough, and I was like, oh noeeee, they'll cut out the adorable Bongo thing, sadface ):

HOWEVER, they did it the second time with Mikey directly behind Paul, gyrating and shexy dancing hehe, with Paul looking quite perplexed, and, to my endless amusement, Virginia went to do the bongo shtick, but Mikey practically knocked her down getting to Paul first lol. So the gay lives on in film form, hurrah!

And ooo boy, the diet is officially back on track tomorrow, because I no longer have the excuse of 'major work, chocolate time'. I would have started today, but standing around in lines most of the day and getting out of the studio at 10pm really lends itself to a Mickey Dee's kind of evening. I'm starting to put the weight back on, and I am determined to stick around my goal weight, damn it.

satan = santa ??? ...

Fri, 06 Nov 2009 06:37:10 GMT

I am officially finished with my degree for the year. *dances exhaustedly* I even finished and handed in the essay before other people had gotten half way to the word limit. I mean, WHAT. Is this the Twilight Zone? I finished before 4am the day of an assignment? Aaaand I am rather beind, having started late, but I'm at 5000/50000 for NaNo, wooooo.

Also procrastinated happily with parts an old GNW debate, 'Always Look On The Bright Side', including some parts I hadn't seen before, yay. Exampllleees:
Corinne teases and licks Paul.
Paul is a sexy reindeer, and also Satan. (Stiiill not sure how this made it on telly XD Satan/Rudolph OTP?)
Paul paints Satan all over the set and acts generally insane. Most terrifying ten minutes of TV ever, y/n?
Paul/Mikey cheek kissing.

They kiss a lot. You know what I need? That special they did together ages ago. Also for them to like, release a CD or DVD of their radio show. I used to listen to it all the time with dad, but clearly didn't appreciate it as much when I was... eightish. And Sandy's voice used to drive me up the wall.

OH, you know what else I did today? Bent one of my longish fingernails (I bite them, they're all uneven, I blame Elijah Wood) in half, and blood spurted out. YEAH, OUCH.

TANDEM BIKING. MINI-BIKES. FOOTBALL. STUPID SMILES. DEAN NEEDS A BIGGER MOUTH. OH GOD. I WOULD WATCH THAT SIT-COM. Actually probably not, it looks incredibly painful and cringe-worthy, BUT THE GAY, THE GLORIOUS GAY. J2 in real life, y/n? (with more gay)

A tiny part of me just went aww, why couldn't they have been wearing red/blue dressing gowns and sipping from martini glasses in a big olive drab tent. Still. Doctorrrs. Ahahahah Dean watches a shitty doctor drama. Aaaaand Sam just touched Dean's chest and looked all big and intimidating and oooooo.

OH DEAN, I LOVE YOUR LYING LITTLE FACE. And ahahahahah, "Oh boy... it's him! It's him, it's Dr Sexy!" ... Your gay is showing, Dean.

Once again, Jensen proves that he has a bazillion times more chemistry with men then he does with women. (And also that Dean has a thing for cowboy boots.)

... I would actually be interested to see Paul McDermott in the Trickster role. Don't judge me, he would be so awesome lol.

I actually just had to pause this and roll around on the floor laughing. No, really. What. The. Fuck.

Sam operating on Dean! <333

Sweaty basketball Sam'n'Dean all up close with genital herpes :D

Poor Cas. This reminds me of this crack!LOTR fic I read where the Fellowship were all on this adventure in the real world, sans Boromir, who would periodically be seen still in Middle Earth, being trampled by horses or kicked in the groin by orcs are whatever.

CALM DOWN? I AM WEARING SUNGLASSES AT NIGHT.

Dean is inside the SamPala. I do not usually approve of bottom!Sam, but I will forgive it this one time XD OH ACTUALLY, Sam's discomfort is clearly representative of the fact that he is well and truly only ever the top in the relationship? y/y?

It's entirely possible this has been my favourite episode of the show. Like, I'm sure there are so many great emotional wrecky sort of ones, but... ahhhh.

take it from me

Tue, 03 Nov 2009 04:32:38 GMT

Oh my. We appear to have returned to 'commence sweating immediately when one leaves the shower' and 'only dry hair in front of a full-speed fan' weather. Hey, Australia? I hate you. I enjoyed you in the winter months, but I officially loathe you once again.

I am, however, around 20kg lighter this summer, so I'm hoping this helps lessen the pain somehow? Otherwise pfft, it'll all go straight back on in the form of icecream.

And this essay is so very soul-destroying. I long for the days of my fourth Jane Austen essay. Boring, yes, but so much easier. I want to do my NaNo insteeeeead. </whine>

you have very horny knees

Mon, 02 Nov 2009 11:06:52 GMT

Okay, so, I think I have such a hard time reading/rarely read LOTR fic for two reasons.

a) I generally flock towards things that are largely (if not entirely) Peregrin-oriented, and apparently for some reason not every fic in the world revolves around him.
b) I don't read het. I just can't, okay? I'm a freak, I know I am. All out straight romances RUIN things for me, minus like, Tom Hanks/Meg Ryan movies, Fry/Leela, and Joel/Maggie from NX And I have spent the last *ponders* eight/nine years thinking of hobbits (especially Pippin) as lacking in genitalia.

Which leaves a small amount of gen. Which I do enjoy greatly, but there doesn't appear to be a huge amount of it. But it occurs to me, (finally, after said eight/nine years) that it may be time to square with the fact that Pippin probably did have boy-parts, and may possibly have wanted to use them (when he came of age obvs). I think it may be time to peek into the apparently quite well-hidden world of LOTR slash. After my thesis is done.

And also I may have signed up for NaNo. *headdesk*

* Aw, he really did sound sick that day. By the second show he was pretty groggy.
* Hehe, 'the often naked Mikey Robins'.
* Haha 'so you think it's good to start the show with a lie?' Also pfffft how long has that dude been on television for? (I have no idea, admittedly maybe forever.) YOU'RE CREEPY.
* MILO: THE FLAVOUR OF JOY!
* 'I'm glad you didn't catch it while you were in Paul.'
* Poor Kitty! Haha, surely that's illegal.
* 'Okay, baby.' Ohhh, Mikey and Paul, I love thee.

* 'Where are the dancing girls?' Hee, oh there they are.
* OH I LOVE IT SO MUCH. Paul's GLEEEEE. 'And that's the good news' and DO THROW YOUR ARMS AROUND ME! :D They did weird editing things with that, but ehhh, they kept in much of the squee!
* 'My intriguing dollops.' 'I'm sorry???'
* Frank's laugh hehe

* Aww, cuddly :) Poor sickly Paul hehe. Everyone has an obsession with his nipples.
* Lmao I've been waiting for Akmal's Rockhampton story for ages.
* Smiley!Paul :D And aww Akmal hehe
* I think I would enjoy Akmal as a crazy uncle a family gatherings lol. I practically do have a bunch of Akmal uncles anyway.
* Oookay they've showed me like 8000 times in this segment alone.

* Oooh, I love your shoooes...
* The 'crotch level' thing was my first hint he wasn't actually gay!
* Paul flirting with himself in mirrors in nature hehe.

* XD Paul having a go at the bikers haha, oh dear.
* Claire's Faraway Tree anger haha, aww. I looooved those books.
* Hahahahaha Frank. No no noooo you strange man.
* Also, Frank nearly killed himself in the bin, and had to be rescued by Mikey and Kitty when he got stuck XD

* I wanted cake ): The other side of the audience got some. And ewwww Akmal!
* Classy dude, grabbing the girl's ass during the kiss.
* 'Listen, Paul!' - 'How did you know I wasn't?'
* Ohhhh, Mikey. That poor man XD (Paul's smoking his pencil again, also.)

* Paul just said the word 'Gandalf'. And he agrees that he's hot in sandals?
* Lmao at the dude with the motorised recliner.

And um, hey, also,

A few weeks back Danneel posted a picture of herself and Jensen on a tandem bike on her twitter, supposedly in Dallas, at Jensen's folks' place? Aaaaand in this new episode we've got Sam'n'Dean riding a tandem bike. Coincidence? I think not. (Unless tandem bike riding is really popular and I've been living under a rock?)

But yeah, also, SAM/DEAN TANDEM BIKE RIDING XD And an early review of the episode makes it out to be quite slashy also, so yes. I'm excited.

have you blindfolded a man before

Mon, 26 Oct 2009 11:07:26 GMT

I didn't see every episode of Sideshow when it was originally on the air (dad almost got us tickets but that's a whole other frustrating story), and so only just found this segment on youtube. Gleeeee. Magic, men holding hands, blindfold jokes, and angry/amused/giggly Paul. He's having so much fun! The adorableness just won't quit.

I officially have a first chapter of my novella, and my outline. Due first thing tomorrow, wooo. Then another thing due Wednesday, and so on and so forth. Ugh. Can't wait to sleep in a few weeks. Also apply for jobs. Knowing my luck, I'll send out a resume the first day after uni, and get the job that afternoon. DNW. I like being pathetic and unemployed, damn it. Er, well. I like not freaking out about having to deal with assholes/people. Can I be a dog walker?

* Adam Spencerrrr :D (His name makes me think of Lil Mikey. Or Lil Paul?)
* Oh Wil. Always using your twitter jokes. Aw so smiley though.
* Mmm, spray-on arthritis relief.
* Uuurgh, she drove me insane.
* Hannah's 'Women!' *headshake* XD
* GNW Bunch :D I like this. Paul and Mikey smiling/giving each other the bird.

* Lmao at Mikey's clump of hair. Shexy.
* Real pants are always advisable. Also eating occasionally.
* She has a deeper voice than Paul! And she's a girl! XD Mikey.
* Lol at Wil breaking up in giggles at the Bundy Bear joke
* Paul (Dempsey) plays some pretty fantastic guitar. And nnngh voice.
* Big Ted and Jemima don't count, Paul.
* 'That's why I prefer to sleep with women'. Also, isn't Wil more of an equal opportunity lad? I could be wrong.

* Ohhh, this was hilarious. There's always so much struggle with the buzzers.
* Paul's toilet break XD
* Wil... FUCK. For money.
* Squeaky!Wil! LOL and Adam's subruling buzzer ruling and such.
* Suddenly recalling my huge crush on Wil as a youngin'. Not as big as the one on Paul, but. I think it's his laff.
* Wil/Adam XD 'Not even sure what the point I'm making there...'
* Oh, granny flange... I had forgotten the horror. They cut out so much of that.

* Babydoll! <3
* I think I love Hannah Gadsby.
* Is there something you wanna tell me, Paul? ): I'll send a cheque.
* Paul's 'stop it, you're gorgeous, stop it!' :D

* Again with finale promos being overly touchey-feeley. Er well, they can never be overly touchey-feeley...
* Phillip the gay hedgehog!
* I've now heard this nasal Brazilian story about five times lol.
* Paul enjoyed Wil's radio voice hehe.
* Um. They cut out Paul's other song. With Adam's interpretive dance, and Paul climbing up to sit on his desk and swing his legs back and forth. What the actual fuck, channel Ten?

* Um. The Oportos ad guy = Jared. Ignores the girls in favour of the burger ~~and Jensen~~
* Oh God, shhhhhhh singer chick. Shhhhh.
* Magic Faraway Tree XD Me and like two other people laughed.
* Paul's doggie speak XD Yes they are, yestheyare.

with jazz hands!

Sat, 24 Oct 2009 12:47:51 GMT

I won a Dog (Footrot Flats) plushie on eBay! *gleeee* You may now all feel jealous.

It was actually a struggle to find people to come to Good News Week today. I mean, hi, free spare tickets to a tv show taping with a bunch of pretty funny people? No takers? In the end my mum tagged along hehe. I'm ever so proud that she didn't stand up and loudly protest at the rude jokes.

It was rather awesome having Wil Anderson and Adam Spencer in the same room for the first taping. They were ever so hilarious. And Hannah Gadsby was awesome! (Other rocker chick drove me, and possibly everybody, insane.) Aaaaand the delightful Frank Woodley, Kitty Flannagan and Akmal in the second, with uh. Matt Masterchef Guy? Preston?

I'm pretty sure Paul gave me and the entire audience the flu though. He and Akmal. *shakes fist weakly* Poor dear kept trying to blink himself awake while the cameras weren't on him lol. And he had Claire and Mikey huggling him at every opportunity. Naww.

Errrrm. Things? Two really great shows. I really enjoy that when Frank (and maybe Colin Lane?) is on, he tends to call out to Cam and apologise or thank him or whatever, it's sweet lol. Adam and Wil's epic battle was... well, epic.

Mikey's costume in the second taping is my favourite ever, it's official. Seriously, just, ugh. To describe it would lessen the effect later, but Paul was actually helping him with all the related Paul!mocking lol, it was hilarious.

Umm. Aaaand many 'little man's, 'babydoll's, 'Paulie's, 'Monkeyboy's, and other random adorable pet names from Mikey. (Mikey was my favourite person in the entire world when he got us all to stand up and stretch in the second show. ILU Mikey, and my back/shoulders/body thank you.)

And blah, lots of good things.

Also. Have 500/2000 words down. This is due Tuesday. With a one page outline that is the most horrendously difficult thing to write ever, Jesus. Then my film/TV stuff is due Friday. Then evil theory thesis due the following week. Oh God, now begins my panic mode. I shall now go and try to get to 1000 words before sleepy time. I suspect I shall fail, but you never know! You never know.

Oh also, granny flange?

OH OH And. Paul apparently is currently deaf in one ear because he's been sick and travelling and has an evil Indianna Jones style wax build up.

(paraphrasing)

Paul: I tried the ear candle. I rolled off the couch. Got the ear candle all over the place, all over everything.

Mikey: Is that what he told you it was called?

ain't nobody who can sing like me

Fri, 23 Oct 2009 02:33:54 GMT

Can someone explain to me the reasoning behind that Adam Lambert photo shoot where they have him posing with a naked woman? Would it not have made more sense to have him pose with a naked man? Or, like, maybe even both, I guess, but... Did he not just recently announce he was out and proud and awesome, which most people seemed quite overjoyed about, and also evidentially he has an adorable adorable boyfriend... Soooo, they do a photo shoot with him being all sexy with a woman? I get that it's just a photo shoot, and I think he talks about how he thinks women are sexy and whatnot in the related interview, but... idk, isn't it a bit random? Could we not have embraced the whole thing and had a sexy m/m photo shoot?

I am not at all self-serving in this request. Lol no, really. I'm just... bzuh? I admittedly know very very little about this however, so I shall be quiet now. I'm totally doing uni work. I'm so very behind all of a sudden.

Good News Week tomorrow :) I so do not have time to go, blech, and am starting to feel weird about going so much! Buuut I really want to see two of the announced guests for tomorrow, and I just know if I don't use the other ticket, there'll be singing and dancing or something, so. Only a few more shows for the year anyway, I shall hoard the experiences while I can, and remember them fondly while I'm busy with 8000 assignments next year.

And also,

... was supposedly originally like, drawn out over a few minutes? In the most amazing show of gay chicken ever? And this (albeit rather amazing) clip is a mere sample of the kiss that actually took place?

... Uncool. Why oh why would anyone cut out such a thing? (Unless it had actually progressed to moany grinding or pantlessness, in which case it may, I grant you, have been necessary to edit slightly for an earlyish timeslot, but somehow I doubt that it got that far! ... Oh well, actually...) Hehe. Look at the hair pulling and all the tongue lol. And Julie and Mikey's reactions :D

the cards were stacked & i got the jack

Stupid... womb... *glares at stomach* Diet has officially started back today, on the day I most need chocolate, damn it! But I have been good. I even went for a walk. Possibly a stupid idea in hindsight, but I'm sure the legs appreciated it.

It's starting to get really really hot again. Why do I live in this country.

Also, probably should have been trying to get large amounts of assignment done, but instead read beloved old Jared/Jensen fic and was fangirly, and maybe watched A Bug's Life again. I need more Jared/Jensen public gay in my life. I have to admit I'm kinda glad they aren't coming back to Australia next year, because I will already be very broke. On the other hand, they possibly would have been thrust upon GNW as cross-promotion, and I would have squealed. A lot. (And possibly begged and pleaded someone to let me go hug them? To no avail I'm sure, but still.) Nngh, J2 on opposing teams and snarking and such. Why, God, why have you not made this happen? Think of the gay that would come from such a show. I hear even Mikey was ogling Jensen when he was on last time hehe. (Understandable.)

Er yes.

Pre-GNW comment: ROVE HOLDING A PUPPY. Suddenly I am fourteen and madly in love with him again.

* Mikey Robins, the sweet ride.

* I'VE GOT SOME GLASS, EAMON (sp?)! CUT MY GLASS! XD

* The teams got pretty ugly with each other early on hehehe.

* Corinneee <3333 'I used to be a whore-der. Hoarder!'

* Paul's Hall of ShFame hehehe

* Lol at Paul giggling at the sexual harrassment of Eamon

* Scientician! Get that one to Macquarie!

* Paul's eyebrow manipulation is amazing.

* Robot!locusts: Convincing robot!Christians that robot!God is angry.

* Oh God, I was so sure Claire was going to lose an eye to that rainbow.

* Mikey looked over at Paul during 'short people' hehe. Oh they showed the waving! XD

* HEY, MAYBE IT'S THE NIGHT WHERE THEY GET SOME PEACE AND FRIGGIN' QUIET.

* Tiggers With Attitude. It's my cat! XD

* Giggly Paaaaaul :) Also head-tilty Paul. He is so very smiley tonight!

* MOLE! MOOOLE! XD

* Everyone always says they want to host GNW. :/ You can't. Come up with something new lol.

* Bahahah Tom vs Eamon XD

* Claire and Corinne's dancing <333 Aw, they kinda cut out Claire crawling over to Paulie though lol.

* Fantasic Leslie :D CAAAAAAM

* So far, the sun is winning.

Mon, 12 Oct 2009 11:07:48 GMT

Not-at-all-productive things I did today:
- watched youtube clips of border collies 'talking'
- watched youtube clips of pet foxes
- played something incredibly boring yet addictive on the Wii
- chased the cat around the house
- searched for houses with big backyards with online real estate sites
- pondered the possibilities of DomLijah. Just because.

Things I should have been doing:
- cleaning my room
- coming up with one page/first page of my novella. This is due tomorrow. I think.
- not naming and daydreaming about hypothetical dogs. (Pippin is still the winning name.)

Also, my nearly-sixteen-year-old brother is apparently incapable of turning the chicken and waiting for it to cook without my supervision. If I didn't want Pokemon Snap on the Wii so badly, he'd not be getting a birthday present, damn it.

* Oops, I've Swedished!

* 'Haa, ha ha, funny little man.' Ahh, Paul and Mikey.

* I NEED TO SAY THAT I HATE MY TV. I CAN HARDLY SEE ANYTHING. JUST WHITE DOTS.

* They cut out Mikey's 'Only if you stop saying sexy.'

* Fiona: Oh no, Oh SHIT, now the whole country's gonna think I'm back on it!

* Paul's 'dance off' solution for the Liberals.

* Paul hiding behind the panels.

* Hehe, that song had so much trouble starting off. Cameron Bruce had a keyboard microsleep and fucked it up, and then Phil rammed his guitar into his desk. It sounded painful. Oh, and then the guitar stand was wonky and Paul tried to fix it.

* Mikey's Dickie Knee impression hehe. Oh dear.

* '... Just in case he opened his mouth and words came out.'

* Why does Mikey always stand pressed up against Paul's back? I'm not complaining or anything, I'm just curious.

* Damn it, Paul; Cal wanted you to sing, why didn't you sing?

* '... we're in Australia...?' and 'I think Iceland!'

* Oh, I do love Paul's velociraptor impressions.

* KHAMLET. And also the fish in a bucket analogy hehe. Oh Paul. THERE'S A FISH. WITH A DIAMOND RING. And Michaelangelo was a famous ninja turtle ;D Oh, my kingdom for Paul to mention Donatello.

* 'You utter, utter geek!' Paul totally is a closet!geek.

* The whole getting naked with a horse and getting pashed by another man just reeks of Paul/DAAS, frankly.

* Love Stephen K's 'It's our language! Fucking deal with it!'

* Mikey and Paul's little bitch fight/discussion hehehe.

* THEY CUT OUT PAUL'S STORMING OF THE STAGE, ARGH. It was hilarious, damn them.

* o hai, nice reception, nice of you to join us. Paul looks so pretty.

* I can now say I've meditated with Paul?

* 'I rushed over your eggs to get to his swimmer'. Paul's getting a phonecall from mummy later on!

* SIIINGING. Lol the first take was hilarious, but nice to hear him actually sing.

* I think Paul has unresolved issues with eggs? Or sperm? Maybe both?

* Hahahahaha at Fiona's cheating last episode XD

of all the comrades that e're i had

Sun, 11 Oct 2009 08:21:53 GMT

Drove down to Kiama and then Berry with the mother and the UK!mother today. Actually very lovely day hehe. Poked around in itty bitty shops, had chips on a deserted beach, and got befriended by an adorable horse in Berry. I named him Strider. I love that area of the world; beach and country so close together. (Mother and UK!mother are looking to maybe find/buy/rent a house down there. I could have a dog. omg.)

I am not a lamb eater, like, really, but I have to say the roast downstairs smells pretty awesome. I may also have overdosed on chocolate and junk food lately, so. Points start again tomorrow. As well as my frantic workshop piece for Tuesday, because thus far I have... one sentence :)

I finally saw Cameron Bruce! While we were lining up, I was all 'okay, point out the keyboard area today so I may look upon Cameron in person' to obli_ttw. And we ended up quite close and so saw him have his little keyboard microsleep and fuck up the Phil's song hehe, and then in the second taping he got up to perform with Tom Gleeson and... Chaser guy! And heee he was very adorable. Yay!

The first taping was weirdly flat, I must say. I don't even know why. The audience didn't seem to be laughing at much, and it's not that the jokes weren't funny... *shrugs* The second show was awesome though, huzzah! (and there was Paul siiiinging.) Ran very long, didn't get out of the studio until like 10, eek.

Paul and Claire were rather adorable and playful. At one point Claire ran up behind Paul's desk and was all 'rah!' in an attempt to scare him lol. I squee'd. Also several 'love's, 'sweetheart's, and an 'I wuv you, Paul' from Mikey, plus hugging, and shouting matches, and general adorableness. Also Paul's anguish about his prompt card falling apart, and his big shuffling-of-audience-members shtick and stealing some poor woman's purse for the duration of the show. So well behaved, he is.

Favourite thing from the night was probably Paul's (in reference to the eggs and swimmer that were the Strange But True clues), 'I jumped straight past her eggs and went for his swimmers...' and lalala something about 'Sorry, Mrs/Mother McDermott?' And "Oh what does that mean, Paul?" ... eheheh.

but why is the fridge door open

Tue, 06 Oct 2009 08:34:12 GMT

Eww, university tomorrow. It's my least favourite day of the week lol; the one with all the ridiculous group activities and forced socialization. I just want to be a hermit, damn it ):

But look look look, fun GNW videos.

(Also. I am officially planning to indulge in Doctor Who and Torchwood during the holidays, and will probably be a hermit over the long horrible summer period. Please say there's lots of snow in these shows?)

Firstly, Wendy's version of 'Rehab' from last night, with Paul shexy dancing with Jimeoin! XD Look at him go. He's loving it. (Aw, except, the video totally cuts out seconds before Paul climbs sheepishly out from under Mikey's desk, and remarks that the little gathering of men at the table is rather like a barbecue. I'm suddenly very interested in all these Robins/McDermott barbecues.)

Aaaand, a group effort. Sandy, Flacco and Paul perform a song. I enjoy Paul and Flacco's near-nuzzle/kiss moment.

Aww, I kinda miss them. Flacco used to give me nightmares as a kid lol, and Sandy has been known to drive me insane, thanks to dad's large obsession with him, but I could totally stand to see them again on the show.

but i said no no no (oh god why)

Mon, 05 Oct 2009 11:07:33 GMT

Slept on the couch yet again. Becoming quite sleep deprived. Especially as the household kept me up til 2am this morning, and later admitted to thinking the drunkest member should maybe drive home. And now they're mad at me for not thinking their antics are hilarious. Do I really have to be the adult one around people in their 40s? I really am Saffy.

Had dad's house to myself on Saturday night, so curled up in front of their huge flatscreen TV and watched The Emperor's New Groove and the DAAS DVD. Tim and Paul are ridiculous, seriously. So smiley and touchy-feely ~~and in love~~. Also GNW on the big screen is so prettyyy. I love the Saturday replays :) When dad and his partner got home, she saw the DAAS DVD and was all, omg! I remember them! They were on that Big Gig thing! Hehe yeees.

Aaaand uni ~~tomorrow~~ Wednesday! Yay for cancellations! But sigh. My break went past so quickly! Though I'm not even feeling very rushed; most of my assignments are out of the way, and 2/3 of the ones left are fun writey ones :)

... I need to stop chewing on my sleeve.

Righteo,

* Lego!photos bahahah
* Aww, Colin XD
* Bahahah at Paul's face in the farting discussion, and Mikey's 'you're the one who started this!'
* Oh, Paulie and Wendy seedy flatmate stories hehe.
* Hee at Mikey and Colin toasting Paul's McDonalds/Brothel jokes
* Claire's 'No.'
* Paul's camp Sandilands pronunciation hehe
* Paul giggling at Col being an asshole hehe. Oh, and rewarding him with points!
* Mikey mentally undressing his co-worker? :D Oh lispy Paul. Or wait, is it Paul mentally undressing Mikey? I'm so cheerfully, blissfully confused.
* Disestablishmentarianism! (Oh god, extension english flashbacks)
* Hee, Colin is really making Paul really laugh a lot this episode.
* Oh sorry, how silly of me to have thoughts of my own!
* SHUT UP HOUSEHOLD STOP SHOUTING DAMN YOU ALL
* Hahaha Paul and Wendy. They totally used to have punch ups
* Wendy just punched Col in the gut, lmao. That was intense.
* Mikey tripped on the spot! Bahah
* Give us the question again? XD
* Lol did Paul not get the Subway joke???
* Paul IS a pleasure to work with, Mikey, oh my God, shame on you.
* Colin vs Mikey XD Mikey had it coming, the meanie.
* Cuuuuuuute promo for the finale, eeeeee.
* Sexy ambulance Claire
* Paulie danced and sang with them, eeeeeeee! ~~DAAS flashback...~~
* Now we know how Paul has his biscuits?
* Omg, silent through the ad breaks, talky talky shout shout during the show.
* Jimeoin and Paul shexy dancing!
* WHAT WAS HE DOING UNDER MIKEY'S DESK, OH MY GOD. I love you, show.
* Mikey: Sorry. I'm just being a twit. Paul: Not difficult...
* Danger! Biscuit!

Two tapings this week, yay :D

i think i agree with gizmo boy

Fri, 02 Oct 2009 02:47:21 GMT

Pic-spamming.

obli_ttw prompted Sheldon Cooper.

Lol I think my favourite scene is actually one from S3, but this is close behind. The gang trying to teach Sheldon to drive. And also, Sheldon and Leonard are adorable. I don't know if I ship it or not, but eeeee.

'Oh, the pet store...'

'How is the homo-novis going to make his way to work tomorrow?'
'... Homo-novis doesn't know.

rose_melody2 prompted Doug/Tom from 21 Jump Street.

What a surprise this is! :) I'm pretty sure this is (okay, one of) my favourite Doug/Tom moment. They're in a shitty situation, but they're bantering and keeping it light despite the fact they're stranded out in the snow, and they're just ridiculously adorable and touchy-feely. Love!

'We could stay here and become fur traders!'
'We could do that.'

micaturtle prompted Michaelangelo.

Aw, there's lots to choose from with Mikey, but this was always my favourite part of the live action movies when I was a kid. Hero!Mikey saving wee!Yoshi kid hehe. And giving his brothers heart attacks in the process.

'Hold it right there, Zorro Dude.'

bjtp prompted Sam/Dean.

... Okay, I had no idea what to pick. Seriously, it's four and a bit seasons of Sam/Dean squee. (Well. Debatable, but we'll go with that.) But I am a wee bit of a h/c fan (I hide it well, I know), and whilst they definitely shirked on the h/c in this scene lol (where is the hugging and carrying bodily from the scene, hmmm?) I love love love the gentle smiley reassuring talk Sam has with Dean at the end. Uh, so this.

'We've lost so much. We sacrificed so much.'
'People are alive because of you. It's worth it, Dean. It is. It's not fair, and it hurts like hell, but it's worth it.'

who is the child with no complaint

Thu, 01 Oct 2009 14:28:55 GMT

I should be in bed.

Tell me a movie/TV show AND a character or pairing and I will picspam my favourite scene.

Because I don't procrastinate enough.

Also! Writing something set in Australia is actually quite refreshing. I don't have to check and see what weird names every other country in the world uses for simple objects. ie doona. (I'm aware Australian words are probably the weird ones. But seriously. Doona. Duvet sounds like a toilet!) *awaits outrage*

raaawwr...

Mon, 28 Sep 2009 12:05:08 GMT

We have a friend from the UK staying with us, so I am about to embark upon a month of sharing my room with my mother, and sleeping on a mattress that is clearly the spawn of Satan. \o/

And of course just missed most of GNW because, I adore them, obviously, but mum and said UK friend are the loudest people in the entire universe. I did enjoy the promo before hand which featured everyone on stage near the camera, with Paul shouldering Mikey and announcing that it's what goes on beneath the desks that is important. Oh really? And also, 'Don't make me come in there and getcha! *clawy hands* Raaawwr...' ... *squees quietly*

* Paul offending the Christians hehe. Go Paulie.
* We can't even say #2! And it's really #1ing me off!
* Did he just compare himself to Jesus?
* Bahahah *lisping* Don't tell the Chrishtians!
* I think that was my favourite monologue ever. Damn them for not sending me tickets.
* The little smile when Tom said 'think of your son'. Awwwwwwwwwww. Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.
* Women And Their Cows And Stuff.
* Bahahahahahahah at Paul and Mikey's awkward silence/glare. Hahahahaha I love them.
* Paul looks exceedingly pretty tonight. So schmiley!
* Paul and Mikey are so adorable tonight, oh my God.
* The 7 Days in 7 Seconds theme just keeps getting better.
* Paul trying to shrink into the other side of the desk to escape the panels hehe
* Paul is a sad and petty little man, and later Mikey will probe him XD
* LOL and Mikey's 'oh, the tables will not be turned'. ~~We know who's on top.~~
* Mikey and JMo XD Oh, I love her. Lap of honour!
* Mikey laughing at Paul's Hasselhoff joke

... Noise has begun. But Paul looks adorably short next to Tom.

... I give up. Uggggh, it looks very pretty... I shall watch tomorrow on the site, hopefully. ~~Or track down a download.~~

that would make her your mum too, doofus

Sun, 27 Sep 2009 09:45:17 GMT

Spent the day on my hands and knees, weeding the courtyard with my brother and cousin. Oi. Bloody cold outside, also, and I was wearing my daggy (and rather short) shorts, so I think most of me is numb, especially my fingers. Ouch.

Also went for a walk with said companions to fetch chips and ice cream, so I'm hoping all the physical activity cancels out the junk food ;)

Enjoying the Ninja Turtles right now. I watched SPN 5x03, moaned about brothers, then re-watched the 2007 TMNT movie: lol omg, brotherly angst, it is rampant in my fandoms. (Well, if they aren't just out-and-out gay, and Supernatural is a delightful mix.) I may need to dig out my new toon dvds and squee over protective!Raph and adorable!Donnie.

But for tonight, In Bruges again, with friends :) Yay!

take marx, take christ, take drugs?

Fri, 25 Sep 2009 07:03:31 GMT

Hee, my heart. From a TV Week interview with Paul:

Who's your celebrity crush?
Mikey Robins. Don't tell him, though! Don't let the world know! Don't let the werewolves share our love - that would be wrong. Also, that chick on the show would probably get upset.

Idk, is he going on about Twilight? But eheheh. Paulie, your love for Mikey has not been kept a secret, particularly not recently.

Anyway, I've sunk to a new low and have been writing Mikey and Paul schmoop all week (and also Ninja Turtles! 12 pages, bow to my productivity), so now that is done with, it is time to start on major assignments.

Oh oh, and saw Lisa Mitchell last night; she is adorable.

Thank you, universe, for giving Dean two lines referencing the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Also the possible name of a future Emma!child. Best name ever, clearly. (There used to be a wee Spanish kiddy at the surgery named Rafael; three years old, fluffy blonde curls and big blue eyes, and he used to ramble on at me about Nijna Turtles also. I loved him. Even if he spelt his name wrong, clearly.)

Also, spent the first five minutes picturing Jensen in the place of Jess. Just physically, no lines or anything. It was a good five minutes.

And I'm too tired to go look at many reaction posts, because I'm sick of all the Dean!hate. Is it not possible to enjoy both characters instead of just hating one of them? I have very little sympathy for Sam; I never have. I've been on Dean's side since the first episode. I do not really understand how Sam could be the more appealing character, but that's a personal thing. I still am fond of him, and do feel rather sorry for him lately with all his puppy dog eyes. But I don't really understand all the Dean!hate. So I shall just stay in my little corner and wave the brotherly love flag.

(Also er, is it just me, or is the whole Sam!Lucifer vs Dean!Michael arc been blatantly obvious for like, all of the last season? I thought we had all agreed that was what was going on. Apparently not?)

all around me are familiar faces

Mon, 21 Sep 2009 16:01:43 GMT

Huzzah for getting home at 1:40, via various trains, buses, and lots of walking ;)

Excellent night! We had seats right down the front, and to the side, which benefited us greatly. Also, we sat right behind Matthew Newton (we were in the second row kinda) and David Campbell was a few seats down from him

Paul came out first to warm everyone up and insult the elderly, ugly, and redheads. Hehe, he was in fine form as usual. We could see Mikey backstage giggling at him. And then to our glee, Mikey came out to join him, and they were incredibly bromancey. They ended up holding hands and doing the gay wedding cake shtick, which led to a kiiiiiiiiss (XDDDDD) and some humping, and also a buttslap and a 'go on, sweetcheeks' from Mikey. Look, don't judge me, I enjoyed it. This all took place right in front of us lol. I enjoyed out seats quite a lot!

Uhm. Oh yes, then Mikey began to regale us all with his past troubles with sleep apnoea, which Paul gleefully announced used to keep him up at night. Uh and at this point seemed to possibly wink/wave in myself and obli_ttw's direction in a recognition/acknowledgement sort of way. Possibly self-indulgent fantasy on our part! Ahah but if not, I officially feel weird (but also gleeful) about the whole situation. I'm sorry, Paul, I'm not stalking you, I promise.

Anyway, so they were adorable. Cutest, most hilarious BFFs in the business, go boys!

And all the Aussies were brilliant! (Look at me, appreciating Australian talent!) Basically my favourite funny folk were all there lol; Julia Morris, Kitty Flannagan, Peter Berner, Tom Gleeson, and Fiona O'Laughlin. I don't think I'll ever fly again, thanks to Peter's (admittedly hilarious) plane rant, and JMo's discussion of England was brilliant. I did kinda expect Paul and Mikey to come back out and do their own thing seperately, or at least continue MCing, which seemed to be their prime function, but they never did :/

(also possibly a waste of an orchestra; Jerry sang two songs the whole night. Paul was in the building, the same building as an orchestra, no singing? For shame.)

Jerry was... Okay, unpopular opinion time. Very funny, yes, and it was so cool to see some of the archaic clips of his early work. And also to see the typewriter skit, how awesome :) Er, but to be honest, I got way more out of the Aussies, because a lot of Jerry's material seemed to mainly be 'dad jokes' and ragging on the Australian comedians. ie Remarking that he'd never had to work with the Crazies (or something?) in regards to Paul and Mikey playing up together, and then some comment about the audience being funnier than Kitty. Lol, I get that it's a comedy act, but eh, I was just more entertained by the others. Feel free to scorn me at will lol.

That said, first act was brilliant; Jerry sang wonderfully, did the Typewriter schtick, and all the Aussies did their thing. Second act was just awkward! The Q&A thing with the fans, eeeeeek. I spent most of it peering at Paul backstage, who was just sorta leaning against the wall, observing. Because uuuugh awkward. Coulda just been me? But no, there were awkward silences and pauses, with the clearly quite obsessed fans kinda trying to solicit more serious responces, and getting brushed off, and... ack, idk! Then there was the guy who started yelling out that Jerry was a rude asshole, and then immediately was turned upon by vicious loyal fans who threw him out of the theatre. Seriously.

... Er but it was Jerry's night after all, so idk, ignore all of that. It was a brilliant night, and hee, terribly proud of all the local talent. (And Paul and Mikey were schmoopilicious, right in front of me, thank you, awesome seating.)

And looook what I just found XD

:D If I can't have the kiss photo, this will do me fine.

And also these, because hee, what?

Awwwwww.

ETA: Now with added pictures of Paul and Mikey from the night! And also some random gay from getty.

edward will come for you at night time

Sun, 20 Sep 2009 07:49:30 GMT

Cannot stop listening to the Witches of Eastwick OST. And singing. Which I really need to stop, now that the neighbors have moved in, as we share a common wall. Huzzah. Hopefully they are nice, quiet people.

Jerry Lewis (and Paul and Mikey and JMo and Peter Berner and lots) tomorrow, yay! Terribly excited. Even if I hate our public transport system and may end up screaming at a bus timetable after the concert tomorrow night. Anyway.

Didn't get tickets for the upcoming GNW tapings though ): I may have withdrawels! Hee actually I'm mainly disappointed because a friend was finally going to tag along this week, so of course we don't get the tickets this time.

I am off to write J2!Rescue Rangers schmoop, because I can. *glee* Maybe also some more TMNT drabbles, because aww, I have missed playing with those boys. Turtles. Whatever.

My username is: my_fool_took. Lol er. Basically comes from probably my first ever handle, which was 'my-fool-of-a-took' over at fanfiction.net when I was 13. So yes. Slightly fangirly, but I'll probably always keep it now.

My journal name is: I don't have one. Heh, maybe I should think about adding one. Or I can just be a little non-conformist, huzzah.

My title is: ... and then the cage comes down. Which is, obviously, blatantly stolen from Dylan Moran, and just seems to apply to so much RL.

My subtitle is: and I'll never be what you want me to be, from John Rzeznik's 'I'm Still Here', because I identify with that song rather a lot.

My friends page is called: Amigos. Because there was that whole obsession with Mexico and the Spanish language, and one day, I shall learn it proper, damn it.

My default userpic:
Because Dean looks lovely and adorable, and I just enjoy having pretty, simple, b&w icons for my default.

Also this, because hehe, his seal impression is quite impressive.

love is where you find it, wherever that may be

Tue, 15 Sep 2009 14:07:27 GMT

meme that's goin' around. except condensed into one day ;)

day one. a song
day two. a picture
day three. a book/ebook/fanfic
day four. a site
day five. a youtube clip
day six. a quote
day seven. whatever tickles your fancy

day one. a song

Shut Up/Kiss Me by Paul McDermott/Fiona Horne
because it's beautiful and lovely, and I can't get enough of it.

day two. a picture.

because up until tonight, I would have thought that no one could possibly take offense to this picture. it is, in my humble opinion, utterly gorgeous, and sweet, and rather like a fairytale.

day three. a fanfic.

Coffeemaker Fettuccini and a Silver Ring J2 engagement schmoop by thehighwaywoman
I read this whenever I'm feeling glum. it's just so adorable and sweet and lovely.

day four. a site.

VG Cats.
it would help if you were a gamer, or had a passing interest in that part of pop culture, but it's always hilarious, and my favourite place to go for a giggle.

day five. a youtube clip.

The Scree.
a short film by Paul McDermott. yes, there is a slight theme going on here. but this is definitely worth the watch; creepy, twisted, beautiful, and just visually awesome. eye candy, go go go.

day six. a quote.

'"Why is it that, as a culture, we are more comfortable seeing two men holding guns than holding hands?" Ernest J. Gaines
I shall never understand it. I've been blissfully surrounded by my happy friendly bubble of mates and fellow open-minded uni students, and it's so jarring to be faced by someone ignorant enough to have a problem with homosexuality. ugh, I weep for humanity.

day seven. whatever tickles your fancy.

Fidels
my favourite eatery type place in the entire world <3

and i'll tell you while i'm able

Mon, 14 Sep 2009 12:03:01 GMT

So hey, Kanye? Classy! Haha, what the Hell was that?

I'll be honest and say that I think that particular film clip of hers is ridiculous. I thought it was cute up until the ending. Seriously, great message there. (I have similar complaints for 10 Inch Hero. Really. What?) But that was like watching Kanye stomp up and down on a tiny happy friendly puppy! Andrew G has been taken down from the top of my list of 'Yay, We Have No Class' people.

But yay for Green Day! :D

<33333333

Oh boys, I don't even. Seriously. How so cute? And teehee, Jensen looks so wee lately. (Well, he always has really, but I'm noticing it more lately?) Clearly they are snuggling for warmth somewhere in Canada right now.

Good News Week:

Firstly, I feel I have to point out that not thirty seconds before the show, Mikey was all 'zomg Andrew is gorgeous, I'm so gay-curious right now', and then the first thing Andrew spits out on-air is a Mikey-is-Fat joke. Class. Way to win me over, not. Ooh, they appear to have cut it out, however. Sweet.

* Ohh, I do love his 'I've been very bad' smile.

* I thought Claire's outfit was adorable lol, hush Mikey.

* I love Paul's helpful 7 Days in 7 Seconds commentary, and obligatory dig at Akmal.

* Paul's 'he stole your question!' glee was hilarious, but ugh, how is Andrew G the most loved man in Aussie TV?

* Paul being born hehehe. *sings Mummy Dearest* OH MY GOD, THE FOETUS IS TALKING. KILL IT!

* Paul is adorable. Andrew G, blech. But heeee. IT WAS HOT!

* 'Yes mate, yes Sunshine.'

* Hee, Paul's drag names.

* Oh guh, of all the people Paul could flirt with... damn it.
