The state of me:

My house is covered in tissues, tea cups, and cough drop wrappers. I am never going to get better, and I've accepted my fate now. I won't try to fight it anymore. I have The Never-ending Cold. I will adjust my life accordingly.

What I cannot accept, however, is the fact we're out of coffee. I even KNEW this yesterday and then totally forgot until NOW when I woke up (again) at something like five coughing and never got back to sleep. I gave up, went to to the kitchen and halfway there remembered OH FUCK WE'RE TOTES OUT OF COFFEE! So, oh, fuck, we're totally out of coffee.

Since it's on my mind (hahaha, oh god, when will it leave my mind?), here is some more music:

(This post is mostly for the vast majority of my fl who aren't into this whole crazy, crazy band slash thing and are hoping this blows ever faster than my BSG fixation.)

Panic – I Write Sins unplugged, live, whatever
Since Rachel didn't have this, I assume others are equally bereft. If you're on the bubble w/ Panic because they are Panic! (and I totally get it, folks, but remember that the shame you have today will be lying tattered beneath your concert t-shirt on the floor of your bedroom next week!) then this is the song for you.

Gym Class Heroes – New Friend Request
Why aren't there more songs about myspace? Clearly, there needs to be. This song makes me laugh and at the same time go “hm, well, yeah, you're laughing because it's true.” Romance in the age of the internets. I can't tell why this group isn't more popular. I mean that musicwise and not slashwise. They're good.

My Chemical Romance – I Don't Love You This is the ONE My Chem song I can say “I like that one.” Mostly they aren't my thing. I just like the band themselves, not the music. Ok, and I like Gerard's comic.

Prostitution Is the World's Oldest Profession (And I, Dear Madame, Am a Professional) UNLIKE THIS BAND. Ok, so LOVE Cobra Starship. I'm not even ironic about this. However, that's only because the band already took over Ironyland and built a large sparklepalace/disco.

Guilty Pleasure They know you don't take them seriously, and that's OK, because Gabe is hilarious. Please click that link and read the fanfiction that Gabe wrote about HIMSELF. How can you not at least find him amusing?

Damn You Look Good And I'm Drunk (Scandalous) God, this song KILLS.

The Hush Sound song I put up last night.

I haven't listened to the whole Cute Is What I Aim For album yet, but I will get back to you on that when I do.

For good measure, here's a link to someone on my fl being a cute fangirl:
Pete/Patrick=Stupid Pet Tricks!


Fandom as an entity has been a little wonky over the last year or so. I'm in several at once normally, so I see a lot of nonsense that I have no part in, like a lot of us do, and it's been a long time since I could open my fl and enjoy it more than be annoyed by it (which is what lead me to jf in the first place, not that sky-is-falling mentality of lj going super-mega-low-mart). Mostly, what annoys me is people being assholes, though, not people being super excited about something I think is crappy. A lot of stuff you like, I think is crappy, but if you're really enthused about it and capslock and link and act like a thirteen year old? Generally, that makes me happy for you, and me being happy for you means I'm happy, too. Let's all be happy for each other for a change. Download the music and Pete Wentz will brainwash you and you can be happy w/ the rest of the loonies. Wouldn't that be fun?

What happens when I'm sick? I make FOUR POSTS in twenty-four hours. I think that's got to be a record for me.

John Barrowman makes an album of covers! How in the HELL am I the one to bring this link? I have not seen it on a single journal! What? I am hardly the craziest Torchwood/Who fan I know. Not nearly. And the link was brought to me by Nate! This is shameful, fangirls, when a boy who is mocking you finds your links for you. Don't let that happen again, back to the obsessing salt mines!

When I first got into SPN, I thought that it was the fandom that would make me do all the zany things I never did before. I think I've done everything but mpreg. Oh, look, someone else made it! In my new fandom. Seriously, this story was how I knew that I cannot be saved. It's absolutely hopeless. I think I felt like this in S1 of SPN when people were writing wingfic (I am looking at ONE PARTICULAR PERSON, ahem, that never wrote me MORE wingfic, even though I stalked and stalked, but that's FINE, I have a new thing now!) and sexpollen and it was GLORIOUS, but now I think the investment level might be, hm, turned to eleven? Pete and Patrick's baby, y'all! Screw you!

The Steps of Converting to Bandom Guess what step I'm on. This is HILARIOUS. Also, true. Stunningly true. I think she's spying on me. (I lost all my pictures in the Epic Crash. WOES!)

Things from my delicious:

Brendon Urie: Idiot Boyfriend This kid. ??? I think he was hit in the head w/ a rock. But his voice is so sexy. It's baffling. Do not watch while anyone is around or you might get caught laughing like a teenager and be exposed for the poser you are (Brendon is so often the gateway drug, which still BAFFLES ME! But Patrick is chubby? Isn't that the ultimate allure?).

People in Japan are odd. Version 5830034a Can we please get cafes where boys dress up in school uniforms and serve us? I won't qualify the serving. Just general serving.

Pete Wentz on One Tree Hill! I threw in that Japan thing to trick you. (Also, it's a great AU idea.)
