Not a creature was stirring
First,
pennswoods, I got your card. It's beautiful! Thank you.
Second, it's not even 9:00am and I'm kinda tipsy. LIFE IS GOOD.
Third, vids!
There's this thing called the 2012 Sherlock Awards on Tumblr, and this is what won best vid of the year. It is brilliant.
This is by the same vidder who produced this amazing piece, which I've shared before:
I very much liked the TV show Friends, and the opening credits have been parodied before, but of course I found the Sherlock version especially charming:
I don't ship Mycroft/Lestrade, but this video is good and heartbreaking. It amazes me how vidders can manipulate clips to make us see what they want us to see.
For those of us who still love The Lonely Island guys:
Found on Tumblr: I remember this comic from my childhood. I remember being made curious by how much I liked the blonde in that outfit. Did anyone else grow up in a home that, in retrospect, seems creepily religious? Our church even had Chick tracts.
We went to a gun expo on Saturday, but I'm not sober enough to write about that now.
Most of the time I prefer to be alone, but last night I felt like being social. Alas, the inclination didn't hit until after 7pm.
mckitterick had already left for a social event of his own, and I'd had more wine than I thought I should be driving on, so I was at home alone and feeling slightly bereft. And then I discovered there's something wrong with the charcoal I bought for the hookah and I couldn't get it to stay lit so I couldn't even smoke. It was a disappointing evening.
I wish I had millions of dollars and could fly some of my far-away internet friends here to see me. Hello,
alryssa,
aprilstarchild, and
pennswoods, I am looking at you especially right now.
Update: I sobered up a little, showered, did my nails, and am now tipsy again. LIFE IS STILL GOOD.

I will be in Dallas in March, but that isn't exactly close.
Yeah, and the highways in Oklahoma are dicey at best in early spring. =/
My plan for 2013 is to get my health under control to the point where I feel like I could travel without it causing too much stress. After that, WATCH OUT WORLD.

As for last night, I watched a movie I rented from the library. I didn't even check the rating, because it was from... THE LIBRARY. It was called "Latter Days" and it is about a Mormon missionary who is assigned to LA and discovers he is gay. Not a ton of naked, but there was a lot, more than they normally show for men.
