So I drove to Target this morning and took the bus in from there. Tried to rush for the bus; wound up stepping in mud up to my ankle. Lovely.
CRAZY day. CRAZY. Totally flat-out, all day, no time to breathe, much less check email.
Came back; tootled through Target for a bit. Spent too much, but bought what I came in for plus three cami-tops, two pairs of men's sleep pants (read: Walking around Pennsic Pants!), and three boxes of cereal. Oh, and a pair of winter boots for next year.
AND THEN.
My engine light came on just as I was getting home. Car seems to be running fine. Though it does have 145K+ miles, so it could just be a routine thing.
But FRAK.
Ashleeeeeeey! Why are you doing this to me?!

I just bought myself a lifetime account at LibraryThing. My excitement is almost too much to bear, but I must save some for later, as we are going to Ikea today. To buy a new bookshelf, and some sort of chest of drawers to hold my clothes, which currently live on my floor.
And I have a new Spice Girls biography, which concentrates less on romantic shenanigans and more on business, media and music issues. In other words, the best kind of trashy '90s popstar bio! Hurrah!

Subject Line: VID REC: SHERLOCK HOLMES - Auld Lang Syne

Vidder: Mary Van Deusen
Musical artist: James Taylor
Pairing: Holmes/Watson
Vidder on LJ:

Vidder's website: http://www.iment.com/maida/tv/songv ids/hwsong.htm
Why this vid kicks ass:
The hardest part of deciding to recommend a vid by Mary Van Deusen is not recommending the rest of them. She's got an amazing eye for detail, visual and musical, and has made a fine art of blending lyrics and images to convey new meaning. So I'll admit it, I picked one of the two she's named as her favorites among the Sherlockian collection. Auld Lang Syne is not only a memorial to Jeremy Brett -- it also brilliantly captures the friendship and love reflected in the performances that he and Edward Hardwicke gave of Holmes and Watson. She's also got it in two versions, one of them a high quality rendition that can be played on the television as well as your computer.

Why this vid kicks ass:
This video is beautiful and gritty in black and white. The edits hit just right on the beats of the music that captures the tension between Mal and Simon. This vidder captured the underlying violence, tension and angst (dare I say, mutually co-dependent relationship in a freaky, hot sexy lash out and I need you, but I hate you, sort of way?) between the two men seen from the very first episode. Remember the punches and fight scenes? Yep. This is good stuff, set artisticly to music.
And, while I'm at it, I also adore her "Post Blue" Vid which explores the strangely close relationship between River and Simon.

Why this vid kicks ass:
This is a very new vid and uses many clips from season 7 of Smallville, as well as some older ones. One of reasons that I liked this vid so much, besides the fact that I love the song and singer, was that I was impressed with how well the chosen images went with the lyrics of the song. It was also a well told story of the deterioration of Clark and Lex's relationship and of Lex's downward spiral as well.

However I aminterested to hear about it and I genuinely like Scott McCloud. He's a cool guy. So I'm looking forward to his channel. Anyway I'm actually having gigantic line anxiety about the Avatar panel. It isn't until 7:30 tonight and yet there's a part of me that feels like I should just sit in front of that room right now at uh ... let's see 1:30 or perhaps when panel get's out at 2:30? and just get there for 5 hours. Mostly because I'm worried that all the cool kids will be upfront and if you know I will be way in the back with the lesser nerds that would be really sad. I'm also completely convinced that no one will recognized me and I'll have to sit all by myself and cry and cry and cry. Yes. Anyway. we'll see how that goes and I'm sure I will have many stupid and retarded and squeeful(?) and ridiculous things to say about the panel later. So hope you guys are all having a good day and I'll talk to ya'll later or something else. So, yeah!” Transcribed by: |

Best thing ever happened today. The scene: I am eating lunch in a pub across the street from where I will be living next year. I get on my iPhone to check my email. A random dude sees me do it, hops on Twinkle, identifies my twitter feed, and sends me a suggestion about what to order. This is the computing I want!!
This could potentially be creepy, but it is so cool I don't care.

The fic now known as Gotham Nights -- part 4

r_becca
Finally got Gotham Knight from Netflix and watched it last night... AWESOME. I loved it. The anime artwork was beautiful.
Anyway, in honor of that movie and because I just think this name is too awesome and cheesy not to use for this silly fic, I have christened the Buffy/Bruce series "Gotham Nights." I consulted the google, which tells me that this was also a Batman comic miniseries in the 90s -- so for anyone who already knew that, this story is in no way related to anything found in that miniseries, except for the Batman himself.
This series might end up going on for a while, so in order to avoid flooding my fic tag with snippets of stuff, all entries can be found under the Gotham Nights tag. Eventually I may end up with an actual summary and stuff, even. :P
( Buffy Summers/Bruce Wayne, 484 words, no spoilers )
