Should have taken a nap today

[schneefink]

I finished "Hamilton." It's fantastic! I've probably listened to "Wait For It" another twenty times by now, and others also multiple times, like the Cabinet 1+2, My Shot... I hope there'll be a DVD eventually, New York is a bit far. A CD is coming soon.

The other thing I did to procrastinate today was watch Sid and Nate at Tim Horton's, multiple times. They are adorable together, McGinnis and "rookie of the year 2013" Sidney Crosby. Desert Island lady is great.

Shousetsu Bang*Bang is ten! If you don't know it, it's a slash zine with original works (and occasional f/f, artist etc. issues) with 73 issues so far. (more info) I don't read it regularly, but they have some excellent stories and I usually enjoy them a lot. I recently found out that there are usually reviews of each new issue, that will make it easier to find the stories that interest me most.

I'm already planning stories I want to write for the trickortreatexchange, and worrying about Yuletide nominations. I want to finish at least two books before I decide on nominations, I should probably continue reading.

I got a new haircut, basically the same I get every six months and then I let my hair grow out. Right now it's a nice length to wear it open instead of in a pony tail or with a clasp, but I forgot that one of the reasons why I rarely wore it open is because I keep scratching my head when I'm distracted and then it itches more and more. I hope I can get out of that habit.

Today has been another day of procrastination -.- At least I cooked? Not very happy with my productivity right now. I think I need to sleep more again, I tried seven and a half hours for a while and it doesn't seem to be enough.

I loved Sid and Nate at Tim Horton's so much. The giggling and the fond teasing kill me. As did Nate's Dad turning up. Desert Island lady is great too. I hope there is an outtake video somewhere.

You're doing several stories then?

[schneefink]

Wow, imagine an outtake video, even more giggling probably. I'm really looking forward to the Pens' video about Sid in Nova Scotia, iirc it should be online sometime over the weekend.

You mean for trickortreatex? I'm planning to. I didn't sign up, but some of the prompts are very interesting, and it's a nice inspiration to write some darker stories.

[mous22]

I could probably watch them laugh at each other all day.
I loved the Pens TV thing too, they just seem really good for each other as friends.
(It makes me want more fic with them too)

Yeah, it is a good inspiration for darker fic. Hopefully, there will be some interesting things that come out of it.

That Sid & Nate viedo is so disgustingly cute I've watched it like ten times just to see them lose their shit over the way that dude says 'Jalapeno,' and that Timmy's employee who has to teach Sidney Crosby how to properly use an automatic door. Amazing.

[schneefink]

Those vids, and then the Cole Harbor video today, as if I needed to love Sidney Crosby even more than I already do!

I am so glad Hamilton ended up being a happy thing for you. ♥

I already listened to act 1 again and to several individual songs over and over, I recommended it to my mom and everyone I saw today, and I've been humming&singing all day long. "I am not throwing away my shot..."

Heeh, I plunged right in with YT noms to get it out of the way and not be able to think about too much. Just what I wanted to the most. XD

[schneefink]

Yeah, but I have to decide... At least other people already nominated all Killjoys characters that I want, that makes things easier.

[geckoholic]

At least other people already nominated all Killjoys characters that I want -- I might've been one of them, lol.

ETA: And you just had me wondering how the fuck you knew that, and alerted me to the noms post/spreadsheet. Ahh, I'm such a newbie, lol.

[schneefink]

The spreadsheet is very useful! I love looking at what other people nominate, I'm curious. Even more interesting to me is the "how many requested/offered a particular fandom" list during sign-ups - it doesn't say anything about matches, of course, but it's a first look at which fandoms are popular this year.
