amand_rThanks to Xiao di di, I now have WONDERWALL GOING THROUGH MY HEAD, AND THE ONLY THING THAT CAN SCRUB IT CLEAN, LIKE A MISTER CLEAN MAGIC ERASER IN MY SKULL, IS MIKA. I HATE YOU, NICHOLAS H. CRUENTUM. I COME FROM THE LAND OF COAL; YOU'RE LUCKY IT'S SO FUCKING HEAVY OR I'D SEND YOU A BIG OLD LUMP OF IT. I was going to make a joke about squeezing it so hard you make a diamond to present to JB at panto, but it involved buttocks, and that's just not funny.
1. Scrubs is possibly one of my favorite shows of all time. I don't know if I could ever really fic it, but I love it like burning. And it's just gotten weirder and weirder. I like that even though they have kids now and responsibility, just in the last season, JD and Turk celebrated the 5 year anniversary of seeing David Caruso at a ferris wheel by JD riding on Turk's back as he ran down the hallway, arms out, screaming, "EEEEEEEEAGLE!" because that's awesome. I love the fascination with Colin Hays. I love That JD calls people by nicknames everyone uses (Dr. Colonel, Dr. Beardface, Snoop Dogg Resident). I love the new interns. I love Dr Cox and Jordan and their love that is hate that is love that is fucking fantastic. DOCTOR COX CALLS JD GIRL'S NAMES. Carla cooks Turk "brinner". Ted's barbershop quartet that wanted to sing Blue Oyster Cult to the kids in the cancer ward.
I could go on and on and on. Anyway, one of the things that I never gave Scrubs enough credit for was the soundtrack. I have lost count of the number of songs I have looked up just because I heard them on there.
This didn't really have a point. I just wanted to say that I love Scrubs.
2. IT'S THE MOST, WONDERFUL TIIIIIIIIIIIIIME OF THE YEAR. Srsly, I'll drink like a metric ton of this in the next month. OMG STARBUCKS WILL BE MAKING EGG NOG LATTES. THANK YOU VARIOUS REJUVENATING GODS FOR BEING BORN NOW TO DIE IN THE SPRING SO THAT I MIGHT HAVE A MONTH OF EGGNOG.
3. I don't know why she does it, but kidlet likes to be without clothes, even in the cold of winter (her dad did too. For those of you who read Gold Dust—the scene where Ianto locks Jack and Lisa out on the balcony naked was taken from my RL adventures in Living With Tianyu.). But yesterday she walked into the dining room from the living room wearing this ensemble:
And I include this one because she's doing what Miss J on America's Next Top Model would call, "busted up, broken down doll." Her name would be called first, and her photo would be displayed as digital art in the model house for the week:
4. Snack!porn: Goldfish/pretzel Yeah, you heard that right.
5. I live on top of a hill (re: mountain, if you aren't from Pittsburgh), and the wind has been kicking so hard lately that my power goes out about three times a day, and almost always in the middle of the night. I set my alarm, but of course, power. And my cell had the volume off, so even though I set the alarm on that too, I didn't get up. I didn't have to be anywhere, I just wanted to get up early and get something done. Additionally, I'm tired of resetting the clocks. Gah. And my heat is connected to my power, so that's always good times.
Hills. What can you do. Srsly, I live it at the pinnacle. When I look up at night, I see nothing but stars. No trees, no light pollution, nothing. Sometimes in the dead of winter I get a beer and lay out on the walk and stare up, because it's like looking out the doors of the TARDIS. How shit cool is that?
6. I saw the gif of this on my flist, and I think I needed to share: BABY PANDAS ON A SLIDE. FUCK YEAH. I LIKE THE ONE WHO RUNS INTO THE OTHER'S BUTT ON THE SLIDE, AND HE JUST KIND OF…BOUNCES. I HAVE A WORD FOR WHEN YOUR HEAD IS SO PADDED THAT YOUR JUST BOUNCE OFF WHATEVER YOU RUN INTO: "BOPPINS".
ALSO: I don't really care about this vid. I just like the very beginning. You tell me why:
THE PANDAS ARE COMING! THEY'LL RIP OFF YOUR HEAD. THE PANDAS ARE COMING ON A RAMPAGE OF THE DEAD.
LIKE THE SHARK, THE PANDA HAS MILLIONS OF RAZOR SHARP TEETH, WHICH IT USES LIKE A HACKSAW TO CUT THROUGH BONE, CANDY AND FENCES. THE CHINESE BELIEVE IF YOU FIND A DISCARDED PANDA TOOTH, YOU HAVE THE POWER TO SUMMONS [SIC] GODZILLA.
7. OMG how is it that I want the music from a DVD menu. I don't even know how to research the----HOLY FUCK IT'S THE INSTRUMENTAL TO XZIBIT'S 'PAPARAZZI. ::goes in search of::
I bet some days you wonder why you even click on my lj cuts. :P I know why you do, you saucy minxes.

They should have adult underoos. I could make bulletproof cuffs and a headband out of tinfoil again...
Did you know if you spin around in the school bathroom you can become Wonder Woman and beat up bullies? It's incredible!

Date: 2009-12-03 06:53 pm (UTC)Seriously. Your kid is awesome. And really adorable. Hope she's doing better than the other night.
You can have your eggnog lattes. I'm having eggnog ice cream. Ha.
Where I live I'm somewhere between 6,035-7,200 FT. But can I see stars? Fuck no. Too much light pollution. But when I was younger we could lay out under the stars at my grandparents' house. It was awesome.
The pandas are adorable. Thank you bunches for the videos.
Please to be posting a new story soon?
Love ya lots.
Renee

Or maybe it's just cuz, um, I want to be one of the cool kids, and am hoping the awesome will rub off. LIKE STATIC ELECTRICITY. CRRRRACK!

Date: 2009-12-03 09:16 pm (UTC)My kid likes to strip down, too. Every day, he comes home and leaves a trail of clothing around the house. He spends most of his life in his underwear. Even when we lived in a colder climate. I'm thinking of moving to Scotland or some coldass place like that, just to see if he'll put some clothes on.
And thanks - you've reminded me that I miss eggnog. No fucking way am I trying to make my own, though.

Date: 2009-12-03 09:18 pm (UTC)I think being naked is like a requirement of childhood. It when they like to strip as an adult that you worry. About police or careers.
Aw, yeah, I might try that this year. Might. I might add booze. Living dangerously!

Date: 2009-12-03 09:55 pm (UTC)And I watched every single episode of "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" (43? 44?) over the last couple of months, and between every episode I got to listen to the MOST perfect little snippet of violin music. It was never used in the series. I have no idea who played it, or who wrote it, but I am obsessed. It loops every 45 seconds or so, but it's like The Song That Doesn't End, and makes a perfect circle. I once accidentally left it on overnight when I fell asleep, and I didn't mind hearing it all night (as opposed to waking up insane). I feel your pain.

Date: 2009-12-04 05:34 am (UTC)What DVD menu has Paparazzi for its song?
As for Scrubs, I watched the season premier (series premier?). It made me sad. Some people left, others came back. But the person missed most was whoever wrote the funny. There were a couple jokes that were good, but the funny was largely removed.
Maybe it'll improve. It's on before Better Off Ted, which actually is funny (or was, the season premier is next week. We'll see). So I may continue to watch it further, and perhaps there will be a resurgence.

I just watched the finale for eason 8 last week, and it was really apt, actually. I was surprised they decided to make another season. I read the set up for it. Meh.
