So, things are just kind of plodding along as usual, not that it's necessarily a bad thing.

Well, you know, I shouldn't exactly say that, even. There are some fantabulous things going on.

Joseph Gordon Levitt recommended my short film clip. Now, he's begun a collaboration on his website and I decided to join it, and I have an idea that I love so much it's keeping me awake at night. I want it to work so badly I'm practically peeing every moment.

And then, in school, there's this guy I thought was kind of attractive, and I creepy-stared at him enough so that he finally called me. A HOT GUY APPROACHES. JULES USES CREEPY STARING. IT'S SUPER EFFECTIVE. Actually, he tried to text me but texted my landline instead (which made my phone do a Dramatic Reading of his "LOL" that I will save just for hilarity's sake.) I might try to get to know him but honestly? Yeah, I'm not getting burned again. No way, no day oh my brothers and only friends. Still, he seems nice. I hope he will stay nice and can merit a really cool code name. I'd have to think of a good one. You can hardly beat "Chocolate" for a cute-guy name, though sadly that one is ruined forever.

So, those are some essssiting things that have happened, right? Or maybe my life is fantastically boring and I get a thrill off the littlest things. :D

I do get a thrill off the littlest things, though! Got my outdoors Halloween decorations up, but hurray on that. But it rained bitches and hos today so the wires all shorted out. Blast. Still. Halloween. ^_^

Umm, I made an Inception fanvid. What, don't even judge me.

I bought some new fishes! I'm not going to put up pics until they live long enough to be off the critical list. My heart is still broken for Leon and Kyarotto. Maybe I'll get another betta, but I'll have to know for sure that it's The One.

Umm, Friday I was so late for clinic that I missed my first appointment. I left in plenty of time, but the road to the school flooded and I think that a hitch-hiker got injured by a car on the turnpike. I called the clinic from my car, hysterical, all "OMG I am so sorry to be late for clinic, I am so awful!" and my supervisor is the nicest, most mellow guy in the world. He was all, "Yeah, there was an accident, nothing you can do about it. Just get here when you get here." I saw all the flares in the road and I was thinking, Sure I'm super late for clinic and this blows and I'm totally losing my zen, but obviously someone is having a much worse day than I am." It didn't make me feel better though.

I thought for sure I was going to have to make up a treatment, but instead there was time for me to get a treatment – which I get credit for if I do an evaluation. ^_^ I felt as if I'd gotten rewarded for being late.

Then as I was doing writeups I heard said supervisor talking to another student about the merits of gaming. Now you have to imagine, this is not the kind of guy you'd picture being a hard-core gamer. He's very zen, so rational and authoritative but in a sort of gentle way. Then he went on to say that he was such a geek, he'd gotten caught by a former student at the RenFest upstate, in full viking costume.

That's when I cut into the conversation to say that I'd gone to the RenFest in costume, too. I told him I'd cosplayed Raistlin Majere - fully expecting him to say, "Who's that?" Instead he said, "RAISTLIN, OMG, BEST CHARACTER EVER WRITTEN." So we did across-the-room high fives over Raistlin and then he was like, "But...you're a girl." I told him, Yes, but, think about Raistlin. He did, for a few seconds and then said, "You know what, you're right. It takes a girl to cosplay Raistlin."

Then we geeked out over Dragonlance and Resident Evil.

It was fly.

I know you're not bored of seeing pictures of my dogs by Halloween decorations. You can't even lie to me; I can feel it coming through in waves through my computer screen.

This entry is so rambly and disjointed that even I'm annoyed with myself. God! I'm just all, GAH, I want to make this commercial and I have to wait until I have everyone in one place. Meanwhile I have the whole thing scripted in my head and can't quit patting myself on the back over how funny I think it's going to be. It's a total sleep-vampire.

Well, honestly, I can't even read myself anymore, so I'm going to shut up now. ^_^

ETA I took my plants in for the season today. Is it sad that I have a "plants" tag?

No, you rock for having a plants tag! Love the photos- too cute. Great story about your gamer-bonding, it's always good to find like kind. Wish I could... Anyway, good luck with the commercial. Oh, and I'll email you picks of my godparents and I in full garb at the renfest in Salem VA last week. They're from the paper up there! We're freakin' famous!!!

HEY GIRL! I've been ridiculously absent and I'm sorry for that. I do hope you are settling in, somewhat.

Yeah man, email pics! WTF, and why haven't you put them on FB yet? :)

Haku looks so cute facing off to your scary lawn dude. ;D

HR is making it so hard for me to sleep, too! If I'm not putzing around with photos or sketches, I'm keeping myself up scheming up new ideas. I've got my idea for a sketch piece for the Voting one, and I actually really like the concept a lot. Here's hoping the execution matches it at least a little. ;)

Ooooh what's your sketch gonna be? Man, I wish my dashboard worked. I could/should probably update my browser.

Are you gonna sketchy sketch, or like video sketch?

Yeah, it's like, even when you're not on HR, you're still on HR?

ETA: Oh man, I wish I would have taped it when both dogs were barking at Scary Lawn Dude. Sano was all in his Mean Dog stance, it was hilarious. And Haku's just like, "Rrrr. What he said."

Sketchy one, I have nothing to do vid on, 'cept maybe if there's one built into the Mac. I'm thinking of a lgbtqa type one as a focus on why I vote, since Prop 8 and DADT are all big issues currently, and they're big ones for me and people I care for. I may just do the lineart and post it and see if anyone'll color it, and maybe do a colored version of my own if there're no takers later.

Much more fun then working on a presentation for 'Ricin Toxicokinetics and Its Sensitive Detection in Mouse Sera or Feces Using Immuno-PCR'.

Now I need to get my ass to bed! ;D

Dude, iMovie does blow chunks, it is perfectly useless. You're a student; get yourself a cheap version of FC Express. :D

I can't wait to see your sketch and I love that you're going a LGBT angle because last night I decided to put a LGBT ref in there too, as well as scientific freedom, health care and, as I mentioned, women's rights.

What's this now? You don't like researching mice poo?
