fun with skype: round one

On skype with dayln03:
Me: Achoooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!! ...that hurt.
Dayln: It sounded like it hurt. It even made you quieter like you... sneezed all the volume of it out or something.


LOL WTF? She so crazy!

I seriously can't stop with the polls!

[Poll #1191324]
In the comments: Tell me what kind of crazy wacky scenarios you used to come up with!

ETA, Mine: I played with a lot of friends, so we always had conflicting ideas.

My barbies were always somewhere else, the jungle, a beach, locked in a foreign prison trying to break out (no really!), etc. etc. Sometimes they'd just be at home. And of course there would be lots of knocking on doors and big plans for dinners and parties with the neighbors!

There were love triangles to be sure especially because the Ken dolls were in such short supply. Strangely, my two Ken dolls never dated each other but you know that is what they would be doing now if I was still playing! Of course there was sex except I'm pretty sure at first I didn't know what the heck that was and they'd just be laying under the covers together. Hahaha. Lots of head-tilting make-out goodnight sessions after dates by the door.

There was always a vindictive evil barbie, and I'm sad to say, it was usually the one that was ugly cause I'd done something stupid and tried to cut her hair or accidentally put permanent marker on her face. Hahaha.

vidding resources & fic recs

I've got a few recs here today.

First. There are some things for the few of you on my flist who are starting out in vidding. I know there are several of you who are wanting to vid or who are just starting out. sol_se posted some useful links for the new vidders on her flist today and I thought I'd pass along the word to mine.

She mentioned viddingnewbies, a community for those starting out. And as always vidding is a great place to check out. Their memories are well organized and usually recently kept up so it's a great place to look for help. And sol_se also has been kind enough to compile a fantastic list of all the vidding communities she could find! So that's an awesome entry to stick in your memories for future reference.

One of the most interesting/informative posts I've found on LJ about vidding is here, called Ten Things I Know about video editing, started by lim, and many wonderful vidders have tossed their ten things into the mix over there. Well worth checking out!

And finally:
fic recs

pages out of print, a battlestar galactica fic by lyssie
tory/leoben, r, 1300
"Tory knows she's supposed to hate him. And she does. She whispers her hatred against his skin every time they meet."
This fic really just blew me away. The way she interwove her storyline here with the canon New Caprica storyline is amazing and entirely plausable. It's just beautiful and in a way heartbreaking. One of the best fics I've read in a while and such an unusual pairing.

blue & red, a lost fic by devdev1
claire/sawyer, claire/desmond, r, 1012
"Once upon a time, her baby blue boy quieted upon hearing Sawyer’s voice. Once upon a time, she might have too."
This is really kind of hard to read, but worth it, in my opinion. It's so very dark, and for me to say that, you know it must be true because I lean towards darker things. But it's also very beautiful. Not for the faint of heart. Highly recommended!

heaven forbid you end up alone, a lost fic by slybrunette
jack/alex, r, 1180
"She was looking for someone just as screwed up as she is. She knocked on the right door for that too."
Been holding onto this one for a while actually. She's done a very nice job with this, one of my fav pairings. It's a kind of quiet fic and has a nice subtlety to it. Broken people can be so beautiful.

Don't forget to feedback the authors! ;)
