Before I say anything: Ben & Jerry's Smores ice cream is the best damn ice cream ever.

( This is one of those long commentaries that really bear no meaning to anyone else, but I enjoy looking back on sometimes. )

So I want to post about NaNo and stuff, and also a few more thoughtful comments on MGS4, and I keep looking for that theme for Old Snake but with the trumpets... Anyway. I'll get to that later. 

Oh God, I've been sick. The flu, I think, but at least we have a snow day today so I can rest. But yesterday sucked. The night before I couldn't sleep at all, and even though I went to the doctors the next day, I was just miserable. I would have preferred school.

But I'm better today, so I finally got around to getting a dress pic up here. Aaaand... Voila!

( Pictures under the cut! )


So yeah, that's what the semi dress looks like. It was either Abby or Becca that took one look at it and said, "OMG, you look just like River!" To which I paused and said, "Um... Is that a good thing?" And then we went on this whole thing about how I technically needed a big slit up the side, and Becca offered to make one and was was just like, "Uuuuh, no."

In the Hellboy section of last post, I forgot to point something out. Remember Howdy Doody from the beginning? Remember Howdy Doody from D's birthday card? I love how they were trying to make a point that it was a long time ago, and I'd imagine D would just be like, "DDDDDD=" To be honest, I don't know which was scarier, Hellboy or Howdy Doody.


Ok, so in French we had vocab words and one of them was 'mirror' or 'le miroir.' If we were to pretend it was feminine, we might even have 'Lamiroir,' thereby assuming that Apollo looks very much like his mother. I dunno, but if I can get a squeal out of French class, it's worth posting.

(End of spoilers! Just, I hate spoiler-y things; getting spoiled is my pet peeve. XD)

I saw Inkheart with lyricalecho on Monday, before I got all sick. It was soooo good. Mo was adorable, and Farid looked just like this guy I had in my art class last year, and Fenoglio all, "Look, it's Basta! =D" and Dustfinger. We all giggled a little during his shirtless scene, especially Echo's sister who noted, "Heehee, he's buff."

Echo also pointed out that Capricorn has joined the ranks of Bald-Villains-I-Can't-Bring-Myself-To-Respect. It's true, though, with his duct tape and being such a lying liar... I'm not sure if he's even sillier than The Master, what with his, "*cue earthquake* I'LL DESTROY THE WORLD!!! ...Huh. What do you think that was, a 5.1?"

*Heehee, Jeff Dunham avatars!*

So, night before last I was too sick to sleep, so I ended up rereading the first few chapters of Inkspell. The movie messed me up a little bit, though, 'cause I was like, "Whoa, Dustfinger isn't in the Inkworld. Whoa, Basta and Mortola are alive. Whoa, Farid's not living with them. Whoa, Darius is there. Whoa, Resa can't talk."

Of course, I tried to go to sleep after that, and I couldn't. So, you know what happens when you want to sleep but can't: you get a plot bunny. And I figured, "Heck, I can't go to school tomorrow anyway!" So I got up and blasted out 1.6k of Snilly goodness. Currently, it's nearly 4k. I mean, it's not Snilly, per se. It's more like Sev being Lily's go-to guy friend, and Sev is just sort of wistful and quiet about how he feels. It's also a summertime thing, so they're mostly just hanging out and being giggly and best buddy-like. I might post it when I'm done. If nothing else, I need to start a new Fanfiction.net account. Start fresh and all. Giley!fic can go up there too, and the Royal!fic if I'm ever moved to finish that. And of course, my Life's Work, whenever that's gorram done with.

Look, it's shorter!
