I have things to say.

[schmerica]

a. ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOME!!!!!!!!!!!

b. Last night I watched the first five episodes of the first cycle of America's Next Top Model. This afternoon I finished off the season. Right now the third cycle is torrenting very slowly to give me more to watch. That Elyse: pretty awesome, huh?

c. Before I watched more ANTM, I spent most of today doing lots of homework. My phonetics reading makes me angry, but I also spent two or three hours working on my 451 homework, which was a problem set on position class in Wasco nouns, and which I enjoyed rather ridiculously. I can't help it; figuring out all the morphemes and categories and glosses and order and rules makes my brain so happy. It's not so different from the joy I get out of logic problems and crossword puzzles, I suppose.

d. The problem with three day weekends is that Tuesday always looks so unappealing.

e. fox1013 and I suggested a panel for muskratjamboree! This is news mostly because I haven't been able to fully get over my inability to think of MJ as an actual con. In my head, I think of it as being exactly like going over to Livia and Zee's place for fangirl weekends, only in a hotel and there's 15 or 30 girls I want to hang out with instead of two. But, no! It's not just going to be me sitting in BLG's hotel room and cuddling people and eating cookies! There is actual organization, and part of that is panels. So, yes. I'm not sure if enough other people share our huge-ass DADDY buttons to be interested in talking for an hour about Syd&Jack and Veronica&Keith and John&Dean&Sam and Buffy&Giles and Adama&Kara and, uh, non-gen variations of some of the same.

f. Hi. Your hair looks nice today. Would you like a cupcake?

Elyse has a livejournal. I believe it's elysesewell.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Yeah, Fox was showing me! It freaks me out a little.

i would like a cupcake! thank you so much for offering. your hair looks nice today, too. :)

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Cupcakes for everyone!

[fox1013.livejournal.com]

DADDY. YAY.

And, cupcake! Yay!


Also? Elyse/Adrianne! You know you want to! *beams at you*

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Dude, the aftermath of the show makes me TOO SAD. Elyse was a big liar, and Adrianne became a reality tv freak and married a Brady! I don't know what to do with that.

[fox1013.livejournal.com]

Elyse was NOT a big liar. She just CHANGED HER MIND. Also, she clearly hates Tyra & Co while loving Janice. Which obviously I approve of.


Also, I think you will find that Adrianne becoming a reality freak makes her EVEN AWESOMER, if you think about it. She met the Brady on The Surreal Life. She blames Tyra, too!

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

I think YOU should write fic to convince me of your side of the story.

[fox1013.livejournal.com]

Nope. Next RPF fic I write is going to be the cowritten thingy with you. Elyse/Adrianne as superheroes fighting Tyra will have to come later.

Anyway, I'm not even allowed to go home til I finish reading this stupid book.

(Homework is BORING. *clings pathetically*)

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Homework BOOOOOO.

(Our cowritten thing is going to rock, though. But your superheroes idea is intriguing!)

[fox1013.livejournal.com]

SO MUCH BOO.

(I love how I'm complaining. It's an adorable book about gay boys in high school. But I DON'T WANT TO GOD DAMMIT. *coughs*)

(Our cowritten thing is going to be MADE ENTIRELY OF WIN. Speaking of, have you seen pictures of Sandra Oh at the Globes? I'm trying to figure out if her dress is vinyl, leather, or just shiny. In any case, hotness.)

(I am still working out if Tyra encounters a vat of radioactive makeup, or if she's just... normal Tyra. Janice, obviously, is the mentor figure. You understand.)

...You don't want to god?

dude, I would totally love a cupcake. and also to talk about DADDY ISSUES. And also-also to have someone else do my last phonology problem for me - I mean, possibly I am just stupid? but I am looking at the question (What's going on with the vowels in Mohawk?), and I am seriously THIS DAMN CLOSE to writing "bitch, I don't even know" on my paper. Which - I mean, it might entertain the prof? but at the same time, I kind of think I'd fail.

*sigh* Really, I should go to bed and finish it tomorrow (and, I mean, I did the first three! and I'm pretty sure I'm right, or at least plausibly wrong), but - nnngrah. WANTS A CUPCAKE.

Or, um, hi. I totally still haven't processed that MJ is an actual con - possibly because I have never been to a real live con? and probably even more because my only real plan is to smish myself into as many people as possible in the time I'm there.

Um. Yes. I'll just - I'll go type my phonology up, yes? OF COURSE YES.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Awwwwwwwww, darling! *cuddles you* Homework is often mean! *growls at Mohawk vowels*

JAMBOREE! Two and a half months! Woot!

[cashewdani.livejournal.com]

ANTM will suck your entire life away. Beware.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

*takes caution*

[brooklinegirl.livejournal.com]

But, no! It's not just going to be me sitting in BLG's hotel room and cuddling people and eating cookies!

there can be that, too! But also MORE! 100 fangirls, milling about, alarming the hotel staff! and YAY for panel recs! I would totally go to your Daddy panel! YAYS.

...I totally want a cupcake now.

*TWIRLS YOU FOREVER*

[metaphoracle.livejournal.com]

Elyse is very awesome! Not only because she's arguably the Top Model girl who has been the most successful, but because she has an LJ, and published her LJ in Japan! And other stuff!

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

I know! It's pretty cool! Although part of me feels cheated about not understanding how she went from girl who was like "okay, this modeling thing is donezo" to um, actually becoming a model then. Which is ridiculous, because it's not like somebody being on a reality show means you are entitled to know all the details of their life forever more, but.

I also still find it bizarre that her boyfriend on the show is part of, like, the most beloved indie pop band of the decade. What?

[metaphoracle.livejournal.com]

He is? I didn't know that. I just knew that they were still together, and were together all through the show and what happened after, and that's so awesome because well, yeah.

What band is he part of?

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

He's part of The Shins ().
