All right, that's it.

I'm running off to join the circus. Who's with me?

Dibs on being the lion tamer! Seeing as how I already have the lion in my icon and all. :)

A few hours ago, I was struck with the memory that a while back I signed up to rec Terminator fic on crack_van one of these years. (And considering how many people are ahead of me to rec small fandoms, a few years is probably how long it'll take me to do the overview. Or at the very least, the math involved with doing the timeline for a Terminator overview. Perhaps I should just dump a bunch of old calenders into a shredder and drink a glass of Smirnoff over the remnants while hoping for the best.)

In any event, I've been looking for fic and ... oy. There's enough decent fics out there to make recs for one month and ... well, that's about it. *pokes Terminator fandom, what few of us there are* Come on, people. I'm up to three Terminator fics and counting in the list of fics I've written, for crying out loud. Granted, two of them are crossovers with the primary purpose of getting Sarah laid. But damn it, I like getting Sarah laid (hell, I just like Sarah Connor), and there are way too many characters in other fandoms whom she could hook up with in an attempt to pick up information to teach John so he'll be this great military leader. Yet another fanfic writing challenge -- throw Sarah together with a character from another fandom so that she could learn cool, sneaky military stuff from them.

Can you tell it's three in the morning and I'm still not tired yet?

... she types, right before she yawns loudly.

EDIT: Oh, man, I need to post for September on plan_9_from_lj. Then again, I've been thinking of leaving it with open posting of recaps for the month just as a trial, and maybe making it permanent just as long as nobody abuses the privilege.

One more much better photo of the new kitten:

( Awwwwwww ... )

Now, I have to get ready for work because I stayed up too late and slept later than usual. GAH.

EDIT: And now for a little shameless pimping -- I've updated plan_9_from_lj really quickly so that anybody can post a movie recap, so, you know, go do that. *G*

A movie trailer link, since I haven't posted one in a while ...

The Prize Winner of Defiance, Ohio -- It actually looks like a cool movie, although how much do you want to bet that's Julianne Moore's Oscar bait for next year?

Random stuff ...

More news of New Orleans on TV. There's just so much about this whole situation that's just not right -- the reports of anarchy, the crimes going on in the Superdome, the government's reactions. It's so painful to watch. Now that I have my paycheck, I might actually be able to donate, thank God. I know I haven't said much about it so far, it's just hard to say the words sometimes, you know?

In other news, resume and cover letter have been sent off to the factory. Thanks for the help with the cover letter, guys. *cuddles you all*

Today I've had a McChicken sandwich, a peanut butter sandwich, and ... uh, a stick of gum. Tomorrow, I should probably try that whole "meal" thing I've been hearing about.

So this weekend it's a field trip to the Spy Museum, another attempt to finish the Monsters edit, and a start on a recap for The Day After for plan_9_from_lj (which I've had snarky punchlines in my head for all day). And maybe packing my DVDs, if I can stop myself from thinking, "But I might want to watch all of them in the next few weeks." Which reminds me ... because I'm indecisive:
