I am not in a good mood.

[apocalypsos]

-- HOMIGOD I WANT THIS BOOK. Why did I buy other books yesterday when I could have been buying this? *wibbles*

-- Perez Hilton's reported on the whole Luke/Noah phone campaign. I thought I couldn't stand that guy, and then I read the comments. Okay, I still can't stand him, but at least I know he's not the most repugnant person on that website. (If I have to hear, "How will I explain that to my kids?" one more time, I'm going to smack someone. The same way I explained it to my brother, morons -- "Some boys like girls, some boys like boys, some girls like girls." It's not actually that difficult.)

-- Western Oregon senior Sara Tucholsky had never hit a home run in her career. Central Washington senior Mallory Holtman was already her school's career leader in them. But when a twist of fate and a torn knee ligament brought them face to face with each other and face to face with the end of their playing days, they combined on a home run trot that celebrated the collective human spirit far more than individual athletic achievement. This is an awesome story, and makes up for the asshats on Perez's website.

-- I really need to clean my apartment today, if only so that tomorrow I can devote all of my time to trying to finish my Bigbang.

EDIT: Oh, and also, only a couple more days for apocalyptothon submissions. C'mon, you know you want to ... ;)

Danke for the sportsmanship link, Ms. Princess. I linked to it as well, plus passed the story along to shadesong, who I think will appreciate it.

And here's a photo from that game, for further demonstration that what happened was a good thing.
