a little bit of nothing

( another answer under the cut ) Aren't we ossum? Yes, you learn something new EVERY FRAKKIN' DAY.

In other news, Mrs. F has checked out season 4 on DVD. Yay.

Bad pun, I know. :P

So in celebration of Mary McDonnell McAwesome's birthday, I has four stickynote doodles and a kittycat.

( merry marymas to you )

So, merry Marymas! May tidings of cheer and Marywill come to all. Live long and prosper.

Wait, wrong fandom.

Watched "Bastille Day" and  "Act of Contrition" today. Lee and Zarek are epic tools.

Totesly.

Technically done with New Moon (skimmed last few chappies cos once Ed's back, everything goes uber corny as he dramatically declares his undying lurve for Bella and crap). If there's one thing I want to see in the NM movie, it's Head!Edward.

It would be totesly awesomesauce. When Bella does something stupid, head!Edward (Headward!) could pop out of nowhere and no one else but Bella can see him, just like Gaius and head!Six! He can yell at her and she can yell back and everyone else will look at her like she's going crazy because she is.

Yes, I want to see Headward. That's all I want to see. :P

In Mrs. F news...her students are going to take home baby toasters baby simulators sooner or later! For those who never had to go through the dubious honor of caring for a Real Care Baby, these babies are robots designed to act like human babies. They cry and laugh and burp and sleep and those noises are meant to be real (sooooo fake. when it sleeps it sounds like Darth Vader. Srsly). When it cries, the person with the dubious honor of being the parent has to see which of the four things it wants: rocking, burping, feeding, nuking the humans, or (the personal favorite of Mrs. F because she's evil like that) changing its diaper. A microchip senses whether you're there or not and if you carried out its latest demands. It also notes if you accidentally drop the baby's head. Rumors go around that it also records what you say to it.

Nevertheless it's not very human at the moment. It looks pretty darn real and weighs about 6 pounds, but at least it doesn't pee and poop and move and stuff. Cos then we'd need to get off of this Earth ASAP before the Cylons return.

I laughed so hard at the "We need to start having babies" line. LOLOLOLOL

*sigh* Good times, good times. Laura looks at Bill a lot.

If only she knew... ;]



In Mrs. F news, the guy from yesterday's FTEF (for the epic fail) episode was forced to come back and apologize to her. *snerk*

And today she was wearing a wig over her hair (still growing back, and it's curly like Billy's!) and it was like the style MM had in You Can Thank Me Later (epic bathroom scene, omgawds.)

I told her about the airlock line. She wishes she had an airlock. :]



In Twilight news...
LOL BELLA HAS A HEAD!EDWARD LOLZ.

I'll wait a moment before I get to the epic fail part though. First of all, I leeched BSG season one off of Caitlyn! Yay! *happy dance*

Next, the class discussion about the digestive system in Mrs. F's class started thusly:
Mrs. F: "All of us humans (not Cylons) need food in order to survive."

Talk about EPIC WIN. Which, btw, is spelled E-P-I-C W-I-N.

I also borrowed New Moon. Bella is such an emo kid right now.

Okay, here's the WTF moment of the day.
Mrs. F and I are talking about BSG, missing Billy, and crack!fics while she's on duty (supervising the lunch tables) when this guy comes onto campus randomly and asks for a girl named (using made up name) Emily.
Mrs. F, naturally, doesn't trust him and tells him to tell the office.
The guy gets pissed off and was all like, "Don't talk to me." He walks off. Mrs. F and I gape at him.
Me: "That was crossing a line."
The guy comes back, and by now the little group is consisting of Mrs. F (Laura Roslin Reincarnate of the Epic Win), Mr. W (history teacher), and me (acting like a third wheel).
Mr. W: (to the guy, in his military authoritarian voice) "Excuse me, but I do believe you disregarded my colleague here."
Guy: (Still Not Getting It) "Don't talk to me! Come on, Emily, we're leaving!"
Mrs. F: (being all epic and Laura Roslin-ish) "Why do you say that? If you say that again, I will airlock you!"
Guy: "You guys are racist whites." (he's African-American, btw)
Emily: ;-_-
Me: o.O
Mr. W: "Excuse me, but that sort of talk is not acceptable."
Guy: "Don't talk to me! Nuh-uh, don't talk to me! You're all racists!"
Mr. W: (looks ready to murder)
Mrs. F: "LOOK AT ALL THESE PEOPLE AROUND YOU!"
Guy: "Bwuh?"
Mrs. F: "LOOK AT THEM! YOU CAN ASK ANYONE HERE IF WE'RE RACIST OR NOT!"
Guy: "Emily, we're leaving."
Emily: "Ignore my brother-in-law. Please." (looking mortified)
Mrs. F: (eyeroll) "Oh yeah, we're SO racist."
Me: "What is he ON?"

Talk about EPIC FAIL. And random. :P

[Poll #1385982]

Tomorrow we go to the Grand Canyon, south rim. :]

I tend to forget a lot of things, so here's another thing from yesterday. I was at that Wild Animal Park observing the birds in the aviary. There were two birds (Amazons, I believe. :P) that acted so nice and cozy that I was tempted to call them the "Roslin and Adama birds". I took a lot of photos of them; I'll picspam later.

Today we went to the Painted Desert, home to the Petrified Forest. It was... petrified. And ancient. They didn't allow us to take any petrified wood from the park, and my brothers and cousins threw hissy fits at that. We also went to Meteor Crater and some other pretty places whose names I totally forgot. :P Airlock me.

One of them was the ruins of a Hopi settlement, though. A few miles from that is this tall plateau with a wall. It looked creepily like the mountaintop where Adama built the cabin in Daybreak. I wanted to take pictures, but we were moving too fast. :[

Meteor Crater was windy. My hair got all messed up in the photos. As the name might suggest, the crater was created by a meteor. The Meteor Crater museum played a ten-minute movie about the place and later in the gift shop I bought something for Mrs. F...fossilized fish. ;P

After that we went to see petrified wood. Whee.

We had dinner at Denny's. The waitress seriously screwed up all of our orders. It was eventful. My bro Kenny and my cousin Ashley were cutting their french fries up and sprinkling salt on their ketchup. No comment.

I listened to just about every song on iRoslin on the drives in between the sites. I think I might make a Bella/Edward fanmix, because I'm just like that. :P And I might continue some BSG fanfic, but I barely have time cos Mom and Dad don't allow me to write or read in the car. XP

I'm reading Twilight for the first time. The verdict so far is...

Bella's borderline-Sue as of this moment. Edward's pretty cool, I haven't seen Jacob yet, and it seems to me that everyone frakking LOVES Bella here. Um. WTF, man?

Right now, she's clumsy, yes. She looks plain (but people think she looks nice, I guess). She's related to the police chief, she's done just about everything in the cirriculum (and was in AP in Phoenix), she can cook, and she's got Perfect McPerfection mildly interested in her.

Once again, I'm reserving on dealing the final Mary Sue sentence. I can smell a downward spiral into Suedom for her, though.

But otherwise, it's pretty interesting.


In other news, Mrs. F got to the part in S3 where the resistance escapes! :] I printed out misscam 's latest story (A Murder on Galactica, the best mystery fanfic I've read so far. Laik srsly) and read bits of it to her. She likes it. :]

*happy dance* I'm going to Vegas and the Grand Canyone tomorrow! And I might have intrawebz cos mom's bringing da laptop. Yay!

there was an icon meme earlier today. now there isn't.

now there are pictures.

 

 

( meow )

In other news... Mrs. F, Caitlyn, and I want to go to Dragon*Con, but it's on the other side of the country. *pouts* As soon as I get wind of one with Mary McDonnell and Katee Sackhoff in the Los Angeles area, we are so going and we're going to dress up! :]

I think I'll go as Boomer for Halloween. Now, where do I get military tanks?

Mrs. F looks very presidential. She has a suit jacket and a white crossover blouse. ;]

Oh, and in other-other news, it's icedteainthebag 's birthday! :] ( Bill looks like Lawrence of Arabia. :P )
Happy birfday, icedtea. You wanted Bill in Laura's headscarf. ;]

I tried my best to avoid Daybreak songs in this one. Really, I did.

( it's obvious that my heart beats for you )
Download the whole frakking thing (songs, album art, and lyrics) here. One of the songs is in mpeg-4 format (can someone tell me how to convert it to mp3?), but the rest are mp3. Enjoy!
