asimplechordHappy birthday, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
a_carnal_mink! ♥ and hugs
I hope it's fabulous. :)
There's a multitude of things I meant to post about.
1. Voting for the 2007 OWL Awards has commenced and will continue through the end of the month.
Links:
Rules and FAQ. (no log in needed to access the Award info and help desk)
Vote. (must be signed in to access the ballot)
Also, thanks to whoever nominated Death Eater's Wife in the Something The Dark Lord Made category.
2. There was a valentine in my mailbox this morning!why_me_why_not, there's a huge supply of those for you, too! :D
3. Anybody know what's up with the TAI show listed for 12April at the Warehouse on last.fm? I can't find any info on it at the Warehouse's site (it's not on their calendar), their mailing list, LiveNation, Ticketmaster, the Houston Free Press, TAI's website or myspace, or the FBR site. (I haven't done more than a cursory search of their myspace, because I despise myspace's layout. It makes my brain bleed.)
4. Dear Associated Press, you totally suck.
So the implication is that voters who favored Hillary Clinton must be white and/or uneducated? I'm sure folks in California and New York appreciate that. Seriously.
ETA 5. Dude. We have a cupboard under the stairs in my house. I've lived here how long and only just connected the extra closet with that phrase? MrIris was running around getting ready for a business trip, and I'm getting ready for work, and he couldn't find a specific jacket, so I asked him if it was in the closet. "What closet?" he asked, since he'd checked the bedroom ones. "The one under the stairs." A fit of giggles followed when I realized what I said, which he did not appreciate. Now I need fic where Harry lives next to the odd sports equipment, vacuum, and mop that occupy that cupboard, and acts like a cloak-check boy. :)

4. Dear Associated Press, you totally suck.
Coming off weekend victories in five contests, Obama was favored to win the Tuesday trio of primaries thanks to a blend of black and better educated voters in those areas[...]

I have to go to bed. But I've been listening to "Nine in the Afternoon" all evening and it makes me grin like an idiot. Not terribly conducive to sleeping.
ETA: Have you seen the video? It's totally insane, but I love the end bit where they're all SMILING and SINGING and CLAPPING. Spencer Smith wins the Most Charming Smile award HANDS DOWN.

Date: 2008-02-13 07:10 am (UTC)Dude. Radiohead tickets go on sale Saturday. I don't need to see them. Especially since it's at the Woodlands, which is a bitch to get in and out of, and is an hour drive, and you know that I'm still gonna end up getting tickets, right? *head/desk* I will be eating PBJs for the rest of my natural life to balance my entertainment budget.
eta: Yes to Spencer Smith's smile. And hello, Ryan Ross is a girl in this video. I'm totally not into the Ryan/Brendon thing, although Brendon is the one of them that really pings my gaydar, but there's a moment at the end of the video that I figure is going to become every Ryan/Brendon shipper's new icon. But, um, all the mustaches sorta freak me out just a little bit. On the girls in the crowd and on them. Someone was smokin' some seriously good weed to come up with that shit. And re-reading Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.

I know. The mustaches are just... creeeeepy. But I am amused that they're during the Jon Walker CRAZY DREAM SEQUENCE bits. Pornstache, much? Brendon dreams of being shot through the hand with an arrow, Spencer dreams of them all as animals, Ryan dreams of them all in Happy Land in their jammies, and Jon dreams of giving everyone weird facial hair. Somebody had some very, very good weed.

Date: 2008-02-13 07:38 am (UTC)Oh, Jon Walker. Mustachio'ed folk in pajama-like band uniforms is your secret dream? Serious therapy and dream-analysis is required. Jung and Freud would have a field day.
The jackets they wear with the animal masks, HAHAHA! It's like the seventies are back with a vengeance. Is that seer-sucker, Spencer Smith? You're not old enough to know what that IS!
