Writing for You

Things that I have recently acquired:
  • 80's Glam skinny Sharpie pens and I adore them very much.
  • The Taming of the Shrew and Frankenstein for school. I do not adore these as much.
Things that I am reading:
  • An extremely confusing, but tolerable, biography of Coco Chanel that I picked because it had cool pictures and I have the methods of a  four-year-old
  • (Rereading, actually) Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, because that is my second-favorite book in the series and the book is good
  • Hound of the Baskervilles. Yeah. Because Sherlock Holmes makes me wish I knew him. (Also, did you know there's a TV show? My friend showed it to me a while back on Netflix. It takes some ideas from the Arthur Conan Doyle stories, but it's not bad.)
Random somethings I have on my nightstand:
  • An empty bottle of Coca-Cola that commemorates the company's 125th Birthday
  • A plush bear that I think I got for Valentine's Day. It has a little pocket in which I keep paper clips. When do I even use paper clips? Hardly ever. But I have them. In this bear.
  • A wooden cat, for some reason.
  • A partially broken camel from Luxor, in Las Vegas. He has been dropped so many times that it is a wonder that he is only partially broken.
  • A guitar pick.
  • Three tennis balls for my juggling endeavors.
Things that I have realized that don't affect me in any meaningful way:
  • Sandy Olsson, in Grease, looked better before she went all leather. Compare this picture to this picture. I don't know about you, but I prefer the first one.
  • Whoever thought of backlit keyboards was a clever person.
  • My blog is a hyperlink minefield.
  • A man named Benedict Cumberbatch plays Sherlock Holmes on Sherlock.
  • Is that not the most fantastic name you've ever heard?
  • David Tennant, who played the Tenth Doctor on Doctor Who, is getting married to Georgia Moffat, who is the real-life daughter of Peter Davison, who played the Fifth Doctor.
  • BUT
  • Georgia Moffat played the Tenth Doctor's daughter in an episode of Doctor Who.
  • So she is the real life daughter of the Doctor and the TV daughter of the Doctor and she's getting married to the (former) Doctor.
  • Is this weird or what? It feels like this is some convoluted kind of incest when it so obviously isn't.
  • Anyway, if you don't watch Doctor Who, I imagine that was somewhat confusing and meaningless for you and I'm sorry. Here is some soap that has a cookies-and-milk pattern. It even smells like chocolate-chip cookies.
  • No, but seriously, you should watch Doctor Who.

  1. 80s. Glam. Skinny. Sharpies.
    And you didn't show them to me yesterday?!?!
    Did you get rid of the first Sharpies, though? That be my main concern. Is Oliver alright? And Rouge? And OCEAN? (The real Ocean, mind, not the fake.)
    I liked the first picture better too, but only because I sometimes wear clothes like that.
    Ah, food soap. It always manages to entice me. However, you should have hyperlinked to the Pumpkin Brain Cupcake soap. Which is obviously cooler.

  2. No. I haven't gotten rid of any other Sharpies... why would I do that?

  3. I dunno...maybe they stopped working? So that's why you got new ones? I was just hypothesising.
    PS: I think Moaltis has become some sort of fad. People aren't shipping it, but they are marvelling at its stupidity. However, I like Opal/Orion. May I write a fanfic? Pleeease?
