Some entries (mainly fandom-related) are public, but this journal is mostly locked aka Friends Only.
I use the term "friends" loosely.
Comment if you want to be added.

Pretty banner and other such general "Friends Only" post-related things coming one day...maybe...eventually. //lazy

Ignore this if you're already LJ friends with me, or whatever. Just adding a note cuz I never got around to it before. In the, you know, 7 years I've had this thing.

4/13/12 03:42 pm - The Lizzie Bennet Diaries: Ep 2

For those of you who may have missed my spamming Twitter and Facebook, here is the second episode of the web series I've been writing for as my first paid writing job. It's called "The Lizzie Bennet Diaries," and it's a modern day vlog adaptation of Pride & Prejudice. Our first episode came out on Monday, and we already have 19,000 subscribers as of this entry. We're currently the YouTube channel that's received the most subscriptions in the past 24 hours (13,000 vs JennaMarbles at second place at under 8,000 -- huge difference!!). The first two episodes are largely introducing characters and setting stuff up, but things will get going next week. We release two episodes a week, Mondays and Thursdays, and my next one comes out next Thursday. The pilot can be found here. If you like them, please like/comment/subscribe!

I do not like emotions what is the point of them they are stupid.

12/28/11 03:48 pm - For January

So January is coming up, which means it's time to swear things off again. This is what I did last year, to semi-success: linkity link. And here is my preliminary list:
  • coffee
  • alcohol
  • watching TV alone (movies are fine)
  • going out to eat
  • reading fan fiction
I can't swear off Facebook or Twitter this year because I have to have social media access for both of my jobs. But I should probably also think of things in January I *have* to do.
  • watch 6 movies
  • read a book
  • read 10 scripts
  • try to sell a bunch of my stuff I don't want anymore
That's it for now. May add later....

People keep talking about leaving LJ. If you are, I'm sorry you feel that way, you will be missed, and goodbye. I, however, am not going anywhere. Yes, what they did is stupid and utterly pointless and I hope it gets fixed, but it's really only problematic for communities. I'm pissed about it for that reason, but it doesn't effect my personal journal. I'm not going to get all huffy and go to another site when my personal stuff isn't effected. It'd be easier if my comms stayed here, and I hope something works out, but if they go to another site....I can just read them there. I don't have to move 8 years of my life to read things elsewhere. Anyway, just sayin'. *shrugs*

12/19/11 11:19 am - A meme! A meme I stole from Sally!

1. If you could avoid one day of the year, what would it be?
None. I think the bad days are as important as the good ones. Although I'm not looking forward to the day I have to sit down and do my taxes.

2. What is better, open and accepting or cynical and skeptical?
Neither extreme is preferable to the other. Each have their problems.

3. What genre do you most often write (slash, angst, fluff etc?)
I mostly write angst. If it's prose (whether original or fan fic), it's definitely going to be angst. If it's script stuff, it can be any fuckin' genre ever but there's still gonna be a heavy focus on teh angst. =)

4. Do you have any pets? How many?
Not personally :( My mom has a dog that was mine when I was growing up, Rusty. And my employers have two Shiba Inus that I'm around alllll the time, Peter and Wendy. So those things don't really count, but meh, kind of.

5. What are your two favourite electronic devices (that you own)?
My MacBook Pro and I guess my iPhone cuz I don't know what I'd do without it. Either way, it hurts me that I have to pick just two.

6. If you had to come back as a cat or a dog, which would it be?
A dog.

7. What is your favourite quote or personal motto?
"We never win. We never will. That's not why we fight. We do it 'cause there's things worth fighting for." (Angel in the BtVS episode "Amends")

8. What is better, chess or card games?
Card games tend to be more about chance, but sometimes that's fun. I don't know. I don't play many games.

9. What TV show/movie do you watch the most? DVD series included.
I don't have time to really watch TV anymore. But the things I'm still trying to keep up with are Lost Girl, Once Upon a Time, American Horror Story, Happy Endings, and Community. The shows I've probably watched the most of ever are Friends, Lost Girl, Doctor Who, Leverage, and Community. The movies I've probably seen the most are Donnie Darko, Annie, and Pound Puppies and the Legend of Big Paw, if we're covering my entire life span =)

10. Do you play video games (includes cellphone)
No, not really. I go through phases. 

11. What are your OTPs for your favourite fandom(s)?
The only fandom I ever really read anymore, oddly enough, is Glee. And that's Brittana. But if we're talking all-time favorite ships in general, all the canon ships on Roswell (plus Kyle/Tess), Rachel/Tobias in Animorphs....and then every other ship I care about on every show is pretty much a friend-based ship. *shrugs*

12. Relaxed look, most cutting edge style, or classic elegance?
If by relaxed you mean I just threw this on because everything else was dirty and I can't wear pajamas to work, then...yes, relaxed.

13. Do you follow any sports? Which one if any?
No.

14. What are your top three films ever made?
Donnie Darko, Moulin Rouge, Edward Scissorhands. Runners-up: Thirteen, Zombieland, Let Me In.

15. What is your worst habit? (nail biting, smoking, etc)
The same as what [info]greenhoodloxley said: procrastinating, and worrying.
