Random stuff

-- I just finished catching up with Leverage. Parker's still my favorite, although Eliot and Hardison are a very close tie for second. :D

-- A pet dog that fell overboard in rough seas off Australia has been reunited with its owners after surviving alone on an island for four months, reports said. Aw. Yay, puppy!

- Barack Obama, making his first visit to a Muslim nation as president, declared Monday the United States "is not and will never be at war with Islam." Cue right-wingers saying, "Of course he says we aren't at war with them, he's a OMG SECRET MUSLIN OMG" in three, two ...

-- 6 Writers Who Accidentally Crapped Out Masterpieces

-- Actress Bai Ling has blasted reports of a romance with The Wrestler star Mickey Rourke. My favorite bit, as someone who reads Go Fug Yourself religiously: Though she is an iconoclast with her fashion, too often she's mislabeled as a tawdry (Breakfast At Tiffany's character) Holly Golightly." I'm dizzy just reading that sentence ... I can't imagine how dizzy you have to be to issue it as part of a statement describing Bai Ling, of all people.

-- Who wants to see a baby camel be all adorable and gawky?

-- This is one of my favorite stories of the week: Fox News columnist downloads the leaked copy of Wolverine and reviews it. Fox, unsurprisingly, fires his ass for piracy.

-- A really cool interview with Dolly Parton, who is never NOT awesome.

-- Two Target:Women videos, Lifetime and Snapped.

WINNER.

I now have my copy of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies.

I'm not allowed to start reading it until I get some more words written today, although I'm doing pretty well in that arena, however.

This may be the closest I ever get to convincing my brother to read classic literature voluntarily. Heh. :)

BLARGH.

I was fine enough to go to Panera, but I feel so very, very gross right now. I have a headache and my tummy hurts. I finally just gave up on trying to get anything done today and curled up on the couch to take a nap. And I'm probably going to take another before Heroes. Ick.

Also, I may have bought an exercise bike today. It was the cheapest one and it was on sale so I could definitely afford it, but I think I'm going to have to get my brother to bring it into the house. There's no way in hell I'm going to be able to handle that tonight. It was already enough of a hassle getting it into the car by myself.

Okay, I'm going to go try to throw up and then make myself some hot tea, seeing as how Otis has yet to make himself useful and learn how to make it for me. Hmph.

I'm ... confused.

WAT.

Who wants to blow things up?

Go here to vote for fandoms for the Apocalyptothon.

Excuse me, I have to run over there now and vote for Leverage, which is this year's big apocalyptic craving for me. Parker at the end of the world .... WOOHOO.
