Great news!

The adapter for my netbook isn't working!

*headdesk*

Because what I really wanted to do is throw twenty much-needed bucks away on a new adapter on this thing. ARGH.

Well, that didn't take long.

I've already dismissed the idea I was going to use for Big Bang and am going to use it for the gay paranormal romance I wanted to write instead. I feel like it could get quite long and interesting and fun and while I could certainly use it for Big Bang, I've got a few Big Bang ideas but I hadn't yet found a gay paranormal romance idea that really clicked until this one.

Aaaaand for added fun, I got my new adapter ordered and out of the way. Of course, it's still going to take a while for it to get here and until then I'm stuck on the old laptop.

Oh, and fandom_stocking went live, you guys! My stocking is here and I got holiday good wishes and icons and fic IOUs and commentfic. I still have to sit down and comment on each one, though, alas, but I'm going to try to get to that by the end of the night. :)

Someone Give Gabby Sidibe A Comedic Role, STAT! Seriously. I've yet to see an interview with her that isn't adorable and hilarious beyond words.

Also ... so, wait, what's up with Danneel and Ted Casablancas on Twitter? What I seem to be getting is Ted basically came out and implied that the Judas Jack Off thing really was about the boys and Danneel pounced. (You guys, I miss SO MUCH because I have a job again. UGH.)

You guys. YOU GUYS.

These are some colorful complaints made to the FCC about Adam Lambert's VMA performance.

I want an Adam icon which says, "His lesbian status is his own." Because seriously, people, HIS LESBIAN STATUS IS HIS OWN.

Also, this one wins at life.

WINNER.

(I work as a receptionist at my father’s company. I had a brother who passed away before I was born.)

Me: “Thank you for calling [name of company]. How may I direct your call?”

Customer: “Yeah, I need to speak to [name of owner].”

Me: “All right, sir, what’s your name and purpose of your call?”

Customer: “Oh, he knows me. I’m his son.”

Me: “Michael? You’re alive!”

Customer: *click*
