♫Total Life Forever, Foals♫
Got this from KCRW's top song of the day podcast. I thought it was interesting enough to share. Very 80s-sounding.

→ I need to do my adorable animal poll again today. I swear I will. Give me a minute...
*procrastinates some more*

→ I have been listening to a lot of This American Life lately and one show in particular, something I'd been wanting to listen to for a while, just happened to be offered for free last week. It's called Notes on Camp and unfortunately you have to pay $0.99 in order to download it now -- or you can listen to it streaming on the site. Anyway, the show really kind of inspired me and I'm hoping to do a whole camp-related post soon, or perhaps a series of posts. I haven't really decided yet. But I do know that I have a lot of really fun things to share with you guys, so look forward to that. I think I'm going to listen to The Ghost of Bobby Dunbar next.

→ Related to that, I was joking with Dayl the other day about Ira Glass's speech and how he has a very slight, I don't know, not impediment, but quirk? Something to do with the pronunciation of his Ls. Not making fun of him, I actually think it's unique and interesting. Just something I noticed.

→ I think I've done fairly well with the lostsquee luau. So far I've written/contributed the following:
The Future: Picspam
strawberries; alex/richard
mother's milk; dogen
the woods that i've run through; vincent, walt
the darkest of marks; claire/jack

I'm not going to say I'm running out of steam, but I am having a lack of ideas right now. I'm sure it won't last.

→ I've been way mia. We had company all weekend starting Friday and so I wasn't around much. ( visual aids ) Three days is a lot to catch up on, so I just kind of... ignored it and nearly everything that came after it. If I missed anything horribly important please let me know, though I tried to scan for that.

→ Also, with the luau, my flist is just insane. I haven't had a chance to read or write hardly anything. I even think my day's coming up! The guilt! I have had ideas, but honestly my muse has been on the back seat for a while, sleeping. Even the few things I've written as of late have been kind of forced. If I could just make myself write a few drabbles, which aren't all that time consuming, then I could catch up. But I keep coming up with bupkis.

Maybe I will get some writing done today.

*tries to be optimistic*

→ In somewhat BSG-related news, Sci fi has the Caprica trailer. (Thanks, lalla32.) I'm impressed and kind of excited. It looks a lot different than what I had expected. Not that I really knew what to expect honestly. I'm really looking forward to this now. Not that I wasn't before but... oh shut up, KC.

→ Dr. Horrible's Act I was so cute. Saw it yesterday morning. I noticed quite a few people saying they had trouble with the site, but I accessed it several times throughout the day yesterday with no trouble. It took me forever to figure out where I recognized Penny. She's Vi! Totally the most awesome potential! Can't wait for act II. Got my season pass on iTunes in case the site crashes and burns like it did for others.

→ What the FRAK? Honestly? It's like they weren't even trying. I'm almost offended by their crappy thieving skills. I mean if you're gonna steal from me at least put a little effort into it, geez! I haven't decided what to do about it, whether to leave it alone or PM them and ask them to take it down. I think I win for worst case of vidtheft ever. That's just pathetic.

→ Despite being forced to work at gunpoint, the muse is still being stubborn. I'm trying to work on a couple of things for the luau. I need to catch up. Badly. Also, I think I've decided to just... ignore the rest of my rounds_of_kink prompts. They'll be up for grabs next time around and maybe I'll re-claim them.

I have been so far behind at the lostsquee summer luau that it's really kinda sad. And I've felt extremely guilty about it too! I'm finally catching up. Under the cut there are four lost wallpapers, one supernatural (j-squared) wallpaper, and one banner/userinfo/icon combo. Queens ellel, queen_alysanne, inthekeyofd, isis2015, alliecat8, and fosfomifira can collect their offerings below. Finally!

I swear I will have fun lost stuff for former queens jb_dean, inthekeyofd, emiliglia, gottalovev, crowgirl13, ficklemuse, and today's queen, halfdutch by the end of tomorrow.

Ambitious? Possibly.

But, I've had stuff simmering in the old noggin all week I just haven't had the time to put them into action. Now that I'm done with school and of course that Jawyer vid, I'm gonna make it up to everybody.

Scout's honor! Or something.

P.S. Jawyer vid!
