Back for good, LJ?
Mar. 30th, 2011 09:20 pmI've had a bit of Lunch Fail today as I couldn't eat anything that was on my plate - but the bright side of the thing was that I was back in my office earlier and had me some time to write this entry. And then I couldn't post it till now. Of course.
I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that I'm this close to getting my fangirl card back! I bought Adam Lambert's Glamnation Live yesterday and I also got my hands on Panic's album! So, I'll confess that I haven't paid for it yet but I will give them my money later on, promise - I always do, after all, don't I? Now, I just need to get my ticket to Eddie Izzard's show.
So, the album. I've been listening to it in a loop since Sunday and I can (and I'm happy to) say I'm enjoying it immensely. Even more than I hoped I would. The more I listen to it, the more I love The Calendar and Let's Kill Tonight - that is, I enjoyed them the first time around but they're both becoming new favourites: they do something to me whenever I listen to them and I usually have to do a little repeat each time. Then again the whole album is put on repeat, so. I still love The Ballad of Mona Lisa, no surprise here. I'm quite enamoured with Sarah Smiles (it was funny to hear Panic's version after listening to
greedy_dancer hum and sing the chorus and seeing the lyrics pop up on my TL). Ready to Go is another favourite too. Let's just say I love it all ♥
I also got the lil documentary and oh, be still my heart! Incidentally, what with the bottling, the throwing up and the being forbidden to pee when he really has to omg, it's a wonder Brendon still wants to go on stage! lol
Unrelated but still on fannish news, I've been in a Sherlock mood the past few days and I've been scavenging comms to find new fics to read. I'm also trying to find the Sherlock comm to have for all my Sherlock/John needs. Speaking of, is there a newsletter for that fandom? I'd swear I read an entry on my flist where someone was talking about coding the latest newsletter as part of their to do list for the day... Is that one of you guys? And sorry if I didn't pay attention to who you were #MeaCulpa
Still about Sherlock, believe it or not but so far I'd never seen the pilot - or pre-pilot, if you want to be precise. There's something wrong with the world when your mother, who became fan of the show after you pimped it to her, tell you all about it and is all "you haven't seen it yet? And you call yourself a fan?" Thank you, Mom, that wasn't painful to hear at all! But anyway, we decided this wouldn't do and finally sat down and watched it. There are differences between the two "first" episodes, obviously, but I think the one thing I do regret the most is the flat. It was so cozy in that first version! Too bad they changed it. The chemistry and insta!love between Sherlock and John were still there thoug, and still a joy to see. It's like a constant... as it should be :-)
