apocalypsos: (zombies)

(no subject)

It's six o'clock in the morning right now, and I've already been awake for twenty minutes. On one hand, I really want to pitch myself into bed and go right back to sleep. On the other hand, I also want to exercise and take a shower, and amazingly enough, I can't go back to sleep if I do that.

In other news, I love [livejournal.com profile] missnegativity because there's now zombies on [livejournal.com profile] dead_earth. You realize, of course, that all we need now is a giant asteroid and a mass religious culling by an unnamed higher being and a very battered planet is going to take her ball and go the hell home.

In a related story, I should not have been half as relieved as I just was when I checked the Hoffman's schedule for this weekend and Shaun of the Dead was on it. I'd say I was setting the bar too high with my expectations, but I'd also say that last weekend I saw Wimbledon, whose only good attribute was that Paul Bettany has lickable hipbones and now I have proof.

EDIT: I write so much better when I have a title to work with, and the best title I've come up with so far for the TroNoWriMo story is "Fighting Evil on Minimum Wage". *sigh* Back to the drawing board, it seems.

Shaun of the Dead will not disappoint you. Be careful what you eat or drink however, as you may end up spewing it out your nose.

I've been up since five, actually.

Also, Neil Gaiman liked Shaun of the Dead, so I think it'll be safe. ["Long, pleasant day -- watched Shaun of the Dead on DVD in the evening, and it made me happy."]

That icon's so nice to see in the morning. (And I say that with the obvious silent addition of, "... but it'd be better seeing that face on the pillow next to me in the morning." ;))

*g* Oh, yes. I heart Bobby.

Sounds like a perfectly cromulent title to moi!

And a cromulent title embiggens the smallest work

I got your giant asteroid. Hopefully I'll have something to post tomorrow.

You know in my first draft, I flattened Oswald with a meteor instead of hitting it with a second quake. But I thought it might be overkill and eliminate the all the fun of making the zombies recognizable.

I predict that Shaun of the Dead is going to be the best movie since Bubba Ho-Tep. I'd see it tonight were it not for the monthly queercore dance party and my slightly battered budget.
