So here I am, minding my own business, and reading/watching anything from the con that I can get my hands on. Kripke is seriously the most fantastic man on the face of the planet, y'all. For serious. So yeah. I'm chatting with randomfangirl29, and also sharing videos and the like with Dayna and Megan and we were fangirling and talking about how just unspeakably likable the guys were, and having a jolly good time. Seriously, that bodyswap video? Best youtube thing ever. (Also that farting panda youtube commercial came on whilst we were chatting this afternoon. I lol'd.) Anyways, minding my own business, talking, ogling, when ALL OF A SUDDEN. I get an IM from Elizabeth and she's all "Errr... I think they played your video" And I, of course, promptly hide underneath my blankets and shout NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! like a pansy Darth Vaderish type deal, and my roommates are all "OMG SARA IS DYING YO" and I am cowering, and then I'm all like, wait. I demand linkage and proof. Because this wouldn't be the first time Elizabeth just screwed with me. Or maybe it would be. But whatever. "...Speaking of fan involvement, the convention also showcased several homemade music video salutes to the show. Clip montages were backed by songs like Tenacious D's "Tribute" (sung by the person who made the video)..."HOLY BLESSED CRAP ON A POPSICLE STICK. So yeah. I feel really ashamed that more people were subjected to my video, and wondering why oh why I didn't have someone else sing and whether I should just re-record the whole thing with my ukulele because Eugene = win (I'm learning "Never Gonna Give You Up" right now... FTW), and seriously. I'm going to die of shame. The only possible good thing that could come from this would be Kripke seeing it and realizing my deep and unfulfilled need to have an episode take place in Kentucky. I get all squee-ish when fanfiction takes them here. I am clearly insane, and the only cure is Winchesters + Kentucky. That is all. So... that's the end of me freaking out. For serious. If you're interested in watching my Magnum Opus (which was made in iMovie and has the terrible singing of both me and Sabrina (that jerk, she only did backup vocals... THAT JERK. D:) and is terrible in just about every way imaginable), then click here. Can't say I didn't warn you. It is kind of epic, though. I mean, Tenacious D. <3 I was going to say all sorts of other insightful things when I did eventually post today, but... this has totally ruined my sanity. Because I am a self-centered narcissist who loves Supernatural. :) | |

Question of the Day:
Do you think that playing "Iron Man" on my ukulele counteracts any negative effects I could receive from watching Girlicous?
**It's my roommate's fault. She finds cracky TV, and then we somehow become unable to change the channel. Truly. Oh wow this show is abysmal. Good luck with that, CW.
I'm currently working on about 15 different songs on my ukulele; I learned the riffs to "Hells Bells" and a bunch of other awesome songs and I will play them as we make pie for Supernatural. Oh, Mr. Kripke. You may have been joking about a fandom-wide bake sale to raise your special effects budget, but my roommate and I want to make pie to fund you. :)
In other news, tonight was a good night. My purple rainboots and new socks came in, my mom made beef stroganoff, and my brother watched Mythbusters with me. Good times. <3
Now to finish it all off with an eclipse. Should be good times, running out into the cold for a little while just to see the red moon. But it's supposed to be pretty, so... yay! :D | |

This week is going to be the absolute best I have ever had. In recent memory, at least. :)
Today: I got really caught up on my sleep and had some Ben & Jerry's. Mmmm, Cherry Garcia. Despite the fact that this means I should probably hit the gym at least five times this week. *headdesk* Also, President's Day = major marathons on just about every channel. Oh, Project Runway, how you are my other other guilty pleasure and yet not guilty at all because I am kind of getting obsessed with clothes lately. And also Tim Gunn is LOVE.
Tomorrow: I'm going to Maegan's for dinner. Or at least, I hope I am. That's the plan, anyway. I saw Maegan this weekend and we reminisced about the good ol' days when we were both in high school (I can't believe it's been 2 years, holy crap), and plotted going to see Indiana Jones in May. She wants to make pants with points on them. I second this idea, though there's a part of me that wants to go an even more steampunk route with a vest and a sort of half-dress thing like Amanda Palmer had on in that Umbrella video. But I digress. Here's hoping for some Potato Chip Chicken. Mmmm. :)
Wednesday: Dinner with my family! And I finish with Acutane. FOREVER. And ever. And get to wear tanktops this summer. And make backless costumes. Oh, the intense joy of it all. Plus, I may have a stupid campfire gather-round with my brother and play some ukulele. I'm definitely getting a little better. It's very exciting. :)
Thursday: Really, do I even need to say it? OMG JUS IN BELLO. And Nightshifter, which is the first episode of Supernatural that I ever really watched, so... it's like coming full-circle in some weird, twisted kind of way. Also, Henricksen is love, and I am weak, so I know that I love the released clips. Oh how this episode will be EPIC. :) Also, at least two pies (Apple and blackberry, this time), and we may throwback to our first pie-making adventure and use powdered sugar instead of flour. I'm highly doubting this, as it's my mother's ingredients we'll be using and she's surely not replaced it all by now. Heh... the ways in which we are like 3-year-olds are uncountable. <3
Friday: Um, it'll be Friday. What's BETTER than that? And one Friday closer to Spring Break. I dunno; I'll have to find something highly exciting to do then.
Saturday: I finish my Making the Cut project. I've officially veered off into crazy-territory wherein I may be using too much Christian imagery, but... the show kind of was for a while there. I don't know; knowing the things I now know about S3, I may slap together a second one during the final week. Even though I'll be taking a midterm that week. My really terrible ideas, let me show you them. | |

I found an AWESOME site for ukulele tabs, and thus... my weekend was made. :) Course, I spent the vast majority of the weekend pretending to study whilst really playing said ukulele, but peh. I just got back from my Political Science test, and if I don't say so myself... well... er... I don't actually know that I did amazingly, but I'm thinking it was at least a solid B. Which would be nice. *crosses fingers* That being said, I'm done with class for the day. :) And since I don't have any immediate impending doom tests to contend with, I might have to work on my "Making the Cut" project, which fills my heart with GREAT JOY. I honestly can't wait until I can show it off to the world. So yeah. Just a month left. :) I was going to do two, but then... college came and ate my January, so... yeah. I'll be lucky to get the first one up to my specifications. *headdesk* I'm also going to enter a contest to be on a G4 show. Why the hell not? They're looking for young girls who like to play video games, and that just so happens to be me, so... yeah. Never said anything about having to look good enough to appear on TV. I'm assuming they'll regret leaving that out when they get my audition tape, but yeah. Whoo. And to top off my Things-I'll-never-get-but-wouldn't-it-be-c ool-if-I-did Hat Trick, my dad wants me to submit a tape of some of the highlights we did for the football video to the local news station and just see if they'll let me do some editing work for them or whatever. I honestly think this is my longest shot simply because um... I'm not that versed in football and the only reason I knew how to put it together was because my dad gave me the clips. So... probably not the best course of action. I was going to try and go as long as I could without knowing who won the Superbowl, but alas, Megan ruined it for me as soon as she came over last night. XD So yeah. Also, the Iron Man trailer is awesome. I saw it online and became rather excited. :) ( This is getting long, and what follows is rambly college stuff. :D )Anyways. Maybe I'll play KotOR today. I have to do something to make up for all that excessive studying I did this weekend. Ugh. Plus, I just got off of Taris, so... the game is BOUND to get fun at some point. I mean, Juhani! Juhani is coming! :D I should totally fanart for KotOR again sometime. I miss it. Also? How much do I love the new fandom-wide appreciation of Ruby? SO MUCH. <3 PS: Using this icon because OMG IF THE STRIKE ENDS SOON LIKE MY PSYCHIC TENDENCIES ARE TELLING ME THEN I WILL HAVE NO MORE USE FOR IT AND I LIKE IT. The end. | |
