a little bit of nothing

I've finally downloaded the latest version of flash! Gods, I am so frakking relieved.


Gods, I hate Ralph Waldo Emerson's "Self-Reliance". We have to read it for school. One paragraph into it and I'm already wishing he'd shut up and get rid of his sickening cheerfulness. It's like listening to Mickey Mouse making a sermon.

At least I got a BSG moment when he said "To be great is to be misunderstood". Don't tell Cavil. x]

Rebecca jumped ship. She's all for Kara/Lee now.

That tips the balance! I must convert Mrs. F to the A/R side to counter this!

*snigger*

Caitlyn revealed our theories to Rebecca...the one that Mrs. F is Laura Roslin in a past life. There's just too many scary coincidences with the whole "teacher with breast cancer and red hair and a love interest named Bill" thing.

Reb's very scared. lol.

In other news, I think I accidentally gave Mrs. F the cold. Bad Lily. *chastises self*

And in other other news, I read about how the Internet works-by cables on the ocean floor! That article in Popular Science also showed the importance of hubs and stuff... so if the Cylons attack, we're all doomed if they target those things.

Also read about an electronic pill designed to cure colon cancer. We are getting way too reliant on technology, aren't we?

The number of BSG fans in RL: five, counting moi. (moi, Caitlyn, Mrs. F, Mark Oliver, and our newest convert)

Yup. Let's give a warm BSG welcome to Rebecca, who was (at first) force-fed the miniseries by Caitlyn. She's a Gaius/Six fan.

So the OTPs go as follows:
Adama/Roslin: 1
Kara/Lee: 1
Gaius/Six:1
Not Applicable: 1
Undecided: 1

As you can tell, I'm the A/R fan. Caitlyn ships Kara/Lee, Rebecca likes Gaius/Six, Mrs. F likes Laura and A/R but she also likes Kara and Kara/Lee and is jumping ships with her little FTL shipper drive (if that's possible), and I don't know where Mark Oliver stands.

Favorite Characters:
Laura Roslin: 1
Kara Thrace: 1
Six: 1
Not Applicable: 1
Undecided: 1

There's a definite correlation between our OTPs and our favorite characters. Hum.


I really should stop being so scientific with this.

I renamed my iPod iRoslin. lol.


oh and btw, how do you do a core sample for geology? just wondering...

I've been listening to that certain scene in "Someone To Watch Over Me", as you can tell.
( Is this it? Cut to save yo f-list. )

I just found out that a certain earworm of mine was based off of "Believe" from the Polar Express, prominently the first few notes.

Gods, and it had been plaguing me for so long!

Oh, and how do you turn JavaScript on? Or install it? I can't listen to anything on IMEEM now. Grr.

Lori and Bill had a fight today. She told me. Apparently they never fight.

Bill wants to buy these expensive bikes and he wants the two of them to have five-hour biking workouts on Sundays, and Lori says she doesn't have enough time. Even if her son Liam and his wife Jenny are planning to move back to this side of the country and they both like biking as well. (Jenny's mom apparently has a huge inheritance and she doesn't have to work. Lucky.)

Lori's more into workout videos. *snigger*

But on a completely unrelated note: last time I told you guys that Liam was the captain of an airline, right? Well, Lori told him to boss around the First Officer. Kara/Lee, anyone?

See what interesting things you can pick up from conversations if you actually listen?

I've converted my friend Caitlyn and my former seventh grade science teacher (who is now also a friend) over to BSG. Go me!

They're both going through Season One right now, though Caitlyn keeps herself updated on the new stuff as well. Mrs. F is considering getting her son (Liam, captain of an airline! See the "Past Lives" potential, hmm?) hooked onto BSG as well. Yay! The more the merrier. I need people to squee with.

Another friend Daniel has a buddy named Mark Oliver who likes BSG. :] :] :]

So far, Caitlyn is watching the "Lee/Kara, Kara/Anyone in the days before she realizes Lee is her twoo wuv, Gaius/Anyone, and Sharon/Helo" show, but Mrs. F is watching the "Adama/Roslin" show. Like me. And she considers Laura as her hero, except for the part where she didn't get mammograms on a yearly basis and thus has her severe, inoperable case of breast cancer. I agree. I mean, Mrs. F had breast cancer as well (and seeing that her first name's Lori and she uses reading glasses and has red hair and a hubby named Bill, I'm getting even more freaked out), but she detected it in the early stages and stuff. Seventh grade science teachers need to set an example, non?

I don't know why writing Adama/Roslin fic, including smut, is easier than writing Tolkien fanfic in general. Maybe it's because it's so hard to get into an Elf's mind? *scratches head*

Laik srsly! I need these songs on iRoslin, but I don't have the moola for iTunes.

Dad installed Photoshop 7.0 onto my computer, which means prettier icons like these:
( Pretty iconses! )
Yeah, I've been busy. :]

But anyways, here's my thoughts on "No Exit".

( For once, Lily is not a happy BSG watcher... )

Oh well. I'm working on the piece for "Blood on the Scales". It'll be up sooner or later. But in the meantime, here's some poetry I composed during my stint off of the intrawebz. (Technically I'm still off, seeing that it's so bipolar. But still...)
