She Likes Coffee and I Like Tea

1) NANO FAIL. Well, still got 20k out of it, but wow. What a half mad November, even without the attempt to write a novel. If after Christmas everyone could just keep poking and yelling at me to finish it by my birthday of March 24, that would be great though. Much Obliged.

2) On that note and as a stupid point, Captain Kirk before the Reboot was an Aries like me (March 22, it's like, SPITTING DISTANCE of my b-day). I WAS SO FRICKIN' UPSET WHEN HE GOT BUMPED UP TO CAPRICORN, YOU HAVE NO IDEA.

Don't worry, Kirk, you'll always be an Aries to me. *HUGS*

3) I finally posted the recap video of the ONTD_Startrek Halloween party. I can't even you guys. I LOVE EVERYONE IN THIS COMMUNITY. TOO. AMAZING.

4) So, my ambition has gotten the better of me YET. AGAIN. I want to send out
HOLIDAY CARDS

And by "I want to send out" I mean "NO REALLY GUYS, YOU'RE REALLY GOING TO GET SOMETHING FROM ME THIS YEAR, HONEST!" SO. If you want in...
[Poll #1495527]

The results are locked--only I can view them, so fear not!

Also, if you are offering to send cards...tell me? ^_^;; I'd LOVE to get a card!


5) I can't wait for hearts_blood and lloire's Decemberween/Januarymas party this weekend. HEEEEEEEEEEELLO SOUTH OF ALBANY AND HOLIDAY BOOZING GEEKERY.

THERE WILL BE MEAD. AND MULLED WINE. MY HANGOVER WILL BE THE STUFF OF LEGENDS.


6) AAAAAAAAAAARGH OMG WHAT THE HELL AM I GOING TO GET PEOPLE FOR CHRISTMAS??? *HEAD DESK!*


And that's all.

Nella, Out.

OMG. OMG I KNOW IT'S NOT UNTIL MARCH 20TH, BUT I AM IN. IN LIKE MOTHERFUCKING FLYNN. PHILADELPHIA, BEND OVER, 'CAUSE THAT WEEKEND YOU BELONG TO THE MERLIN FANDOM AGAIN.

LET THE ARTHURIAN DEBAUCHERY BEGIN AGAIN!!!


On a more serious note, if you are looking at this, scratching your heads and thinking "Merlin? There's a Merlin show? And a Merlin Con?"--

YOU. ME. MY PLACE. MY COPIES OF THE EPISODES. ALCOHOL OF YOUR CHOICE. SERIOUSLY, WATCH THIS SHOW WITH ME, AND YOU'RE GOING TO WANT TO COME!!--

TO PHILLY WITH ME. THAT IS.

I know it's Friday, but the sentiments of the above icon are the same.

Everything and anything that could happen today at work, is happening. Lady!Boss is out, which means in the immortal words of the Minister from Blazing Saddles: 'Kid, you're on your own."

However, it's warms the cockles of my heart to know no matter what, the universe deems it necessary that I be sprawled out on top of a table, fiddling with the projector's settings just when the rather cute looking computer program specialist who's giving the presentation I'm setting the projector up for walks in. And I DO MEAN SPRAWLED. Damnit Jim those tables are extremely large, and the projector sits right in the middle! I don't have the arm length to handle that without crawling on top of the table!

*HEAD DESK* Well, at least I'm good for amusing rather cute tech-y boys on Friday mornings.

STILL SITTING ON SENDING OUT THE INFORMATION FOR MY ST_NYC_GQMFS HALLOWEEN PLANS. *DIES* Just waiting on ONE minor-but-really-not-SO-minor detail...but other than that, the info is--NEARLY completely typed and ready to go out. But goddamn. There's no way in HELL I'm doing any meet-up planning in November, much as I love THAT ENTIRE COMM.

Well, at least my HAIR WAS CUT LAST NIGHT WOOOOOOOOH!! INVERTED BOB FTW! They did blow it out for free as I was a newbie at the salon, so it's PIN straight right now. The novelty of silky smooth straight hair amuses me, but tomorrow it'll be back to the regularly scheduled programming of curls, AND with the addition of some SERIOUS organic weekly hair oil masque thingie that is suppose to keep my hair wonderfully shiny and curly without getting oily and heavy. Although, if Agent Anachronism ever needs a Evil!Mirror!Universe version of herself, the evil Anachronism is SOOOO going to have straight hair. I feel so…DIABOLICAL with straight hair. MWHA. MWHAHAHAHA.

AH WELL back to work. Though, I really should get a picture of my hair, for posterity's sake.

Toodle-pip!

A new umbrella strong enough to be used in self defense.

Now all I need is a steel-brimmed bowler hat and a smoking hot yet classy dame as my partner and I'm set!

(hrum, I should look into acquiring an Avengers icon or two...)

I finally cave for the twitter craze...to make a fandom puppet with a friend.

In the fine tradition of FMLMccoy ncc_gqmf and I have started FML accounts for District 9 characters.

fookmylife - Wikus Van Der Merwe

CJohnsonFML - Christopher Johnson (WHY YES, I AM THE BELEAGUERED ALIEN. IT'S WHAT I DO, PLAY BELEAGUERED SORTS.)


God, I've got D-9 on the BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIN....

This post is an INCREDIBLY long time in coming; mea culpa. But better late than never, right?

...Right?

So, I hosted the second ONTD_Startrek meet up at my place, and we had ourselves a TOS Marathon, which of COURSE required the TOS Drinking Game. Which required…well, booze. Lots of Booze. And I believe the bacchanal that ensured can be summed up in two words, which I feel I am required by LAW to inform ya'll about:

WOKKA SAKI.

What? What's that you say? What the fuck is Wokka Saki??? WELL DON'T WORRY, MY BROTHERS-IN-GEEKERY, ( CAUSE I'VE MADE A MOTHERFUCKING MACRO TO EXPLAIN THIS MARVEL: )

( MIGHT YOU HAVE INCLUDED VIDS OF YOUR TOS MARATHON AT WHICH THE WOKKA SAKI WAS CONSUMED??? YOU BET YOUR SWEET ASS I DID! Below the cut find out how we PARTIED HARD, bobbed for apples K. MARU STYLE, and had another motherfucking SING ALONG! 'CAUSE THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU MIX GIRLS AND OLD SCHOOL TREK! )

SO LISTEN UP! IF YOU ARE IN THE NYC AREA, OR CAN BE, GO OVER TO THIS POST, CAUSE WE'RE PLANNING BRUNCH MOTHERFUCKERS, AND IT'S GOING TO BE EPIC.
