[livejournal.com profile] rawumber, I am actually working tonight (and tomorrow and possibly Sunday). :(

Bitching
  • Family has gone mad. Embrace of crackpot "cures" has commenced.

  • On day 6 without a break from work.


  • Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi, you're my only hope
    Dude, seriously? I need distracting because otherwise my entire family is going to get an earful from me about the aforementioned crackpot cures.

    Distract me, please, I don't care how. Ask me a question, introduce yourselves, leave a rec, ask for a rec, post a picture, whatever. Something. Please.

    Cheez-its = tasty salt in crunchy form.

    And I don't know, I do my level best to avoid fiction written before WWI.

    Is it more or less distracting than his acting?

    *snuggles*

    Hi, Anna! I am Sheila and I like people who are honorable and stoic and off-white. All at once or best two out of three.

    He acts?

    OMG, you aren't one of those awful people obsessed with race? And, who, like think that it is an issue in fandom or something. Because, OMG, in Wisconsin we don't have any problems with race at all.

    Speaking of honorable and stoic characters, have you ever seen the "Band of Brothers" miniseries?

    Well, by acting I mean "Is hugely and entertainingly bombastic when he is at his best."

    To my utter shame, I *am* one of those people who is obsessed with race. I can't help it! I know I am being totally unfair in thinking that possibly there might exist certain troubling things in fandom like racism and misogyny, but I can't help myself!

    And I *tried* to watch Band of Brothers and it put me to sleep in the first half hour. Possibly I should not have tried watching it at 2:00 in the morning.

    And is so attractive at his worst times that I think he may have made some kind of deal with the devil.

    :sigh: Well, we all have our flaws and stuff.

    The first hour of BoB is fairly boring. It only really picks up around the 4/5 episode. The middle of the series is just fantastic.
