Well, so. I have a state ID now. I can prove I am who I say I am. Even though the picture doesn't look anything like me. But whatever. It expires in 2015 which gives me lots of time to figure out what to do once it expires.
After I got my ID the freakishly tall boy (a.k.a. my kid brother JP) and I drove all over town to get cards and presents and a cake for our mom whose birthday is today. Then JP realized he has to start packing because he leaves for college tomorrow, so instead of packing he drove down to see his girlfriend. Somehow this passes for logic in his brain. I don't know.
Memes!
Comment with one of my fandoms, and I'll reply with:
01. The first character I first fell in love with
02. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
03. The character everyone else loves that I don't
04. The character I love that everyone else hates
05. The character I used to love but don't any longer
06. The character I would shag anytime
07. The character I'd want to be like
08. The character I'd slap
09. A pairing that I love
10. A pairing that I despise
1. List your five favourite pairings:
Charlie/Claire - Lost
Desmond/Penny - Lost
Spot/Race - Newsies
Harper/Beka - Andromeda
Barbara/Ian - Doctor Who
2. List five pairings that make you cringe. (Or just that you don't like.):
Harry/Molly - Dresden Files
Harper/Trance - Andromeda
Dylan/Rommie - Andromeda
Desmond/Claire - Lost
Doctor/Rose - Doctor Who
3. A pairing that you grudgingly think would work quite well in canon:
Shawn/Juliet - Psych
4. A pairing you like, but that you don't think would actually work in canon:
Kit/Dairine - Young Wizards
5. A pairing you like/used to like, that canon or fanfiction ruined for you:
Jack/Ianto - Torchwood (sorrry, I liked it but then the mass amounts of Very Annoying OTP-ing and fanoning soured me on it. I still quite like them if Tosh is involved, though I have a feeling Jack/Martha/Tosh will become my new Torchwood OT3.)
1. How Does the World See Me?
Now There Is No Choice - Jekyll & Hyde
"Now there is no choice:
I must put aside
The fears I feel inside...
There's no place to hide!
So it comes to this:
One great golden chance
That only I can take,
When everything I fought for
Is at stake!...
To make the mark
That only I can make!"
...apparently the world thinks I'm desperate, cornered, and determined to make a mark? Is that bad?
2. Will I Have a Happy Life?
Anatoly & The Press - Chess
"How long was this planned?
What made you defect?
Did anyone help you?
And do you expect
To be joined in your exile
By loved ones e.g. your wife?
Or are you starting again
In all aspects of life?"
I'll be hassled by the press, abandon the people who love me most, and defect in a desperate attempt to start fresh. I'm gonna say that's a "no".
3. What Do My Friends Really Think Of Me?
Give It Up Or Let Me Go - Dixie Chicks
"I know it's useless to be jealous
I couldn't tie you if I tried
When I'm thinking you're messin'
Around my back,
It sure brings a pain I just can't hide
Oh baby, I've been true to you
And if I can make that sacrifice,
Honey, you can do it too"
You're all jealous because I'm cheating on you? I'm sorry, I really am, and I promise I won't cheat anymore if you give me one more shot. I'm sorry I hurt you all. *cries*
4. Do People Secretly Lust After Me?
Tune Up #3 - RENT
"Close on Roger
His girlfriend April
Left a note saying "We've got AIDS"
Before slitting her wrists in the bathroom."
...iTunes shuffle hates me, doesn't it? Nobody lusts after me because my girlfriend committed suicide after discovering that we're HIV+. Eek.
5. How Can I Make Myself Happy?
Seasons of Love - RENT
"In -- Five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes
How do you measure a year in the life?
How about love?"
Aww, love will make me happy! *hugs iTunes* Thank you, that makes things a little better.
6. What Should I Do With My Life?
Movin' Right Along - The Muppet Movie
"Movin' right along in search of good times and good news,
With good friends, you can't lose,
This could become a habit.
Opportunity just knocked, let's reach out and grab it,
Together we'll nab it.
Ya! We'll hitch-hike, bus, or yellow cab it."
Ooh. More good advice. Who's up for a road trip???
7. Why Is Life So Full of Pain?
Embassy Lament - Chess
"But he
Hasn't stopped to think about the paperwork
His gesture causes
We've an embassy to run here
If these people can't strike blows for freedom
With a valid visa
We don't need 'em."
Er...improperly-filed paperwork is the root of all evil?
8. How Can I Maxmimize My Pleasure During Sex?
Run, Freedom, Run! - Urinetown
"That freedom sun
Will shine someday
'Til then you better run
Run-a, run-a, run
Freedom, run away!"
*dies*
9. Will I Ever Have Children?
Unanswered Prayers - Garth Brooks
"Some of God's greatest gifts
Are unanswered prayers."
Don't you dare.
10. Will I Die Happy?
Me And The Moon - Bryan White
"It seems if you believe in a dream enough
It has to come true"
...at least, I hope it's that part of the lyrics, because if it's the whole "me and the moon/have never been so blue" then I'm screwed.
11. What is Some Good Advice For Me?
Happy New Year B - RENT
"Let's always stay friends
Tho' we may have our disputes
This family tree's got deep roots
Friendship is thicker than blood."
Awww. Advice taken! *hugs you all*
12. What is Happiness?
Chairman of the Board - The Muppet Christmas Carol
"It's a golden opportunity that's knocking
And you know by now that the answer's up to you
But you're ready because you have an education
So be confident: there's nothing you can't do"
Happiness is a good education and a well-paying job? o.0
13. What is my favorite fetish?
The Card Cheat - The Clash
"To the opium den and the barroom gin
In the Belmont chair playing violins
The gambler's face cracks into a grin
As he lays down the king of spades"
Drug addicts, alcoholics, and cheating at cards. *blinks* Well, that's got me pretty well pinned.
14. How Will I Be Remembered?
You & I/Story Of Chess/Encore - Chess
"You could not give me
More than you gave me
I don't know why
I'm standing by
Watching this happen
Why should there be something in me
Still discontented?"
So people will remember me sadly, about missed opportunities and unhappy endings? This is depressing.
In conclusion: iTunes wants me to have a miserable life. :P

i'm not crazy i swear i just have an overactive imagination! :Dno subject
Although they obviously slept together back before she got married, and he obv still has feelings for her, and maybe he's told her, hey, if this thing with your husband doesn't work out, well, I'm still here, and she was like, hey, okay, that's a little creepy, are you hoping my marriage won't work out? and he said, uh, no, I was just sayin', listen, are you still sending jobs to Shawn, why are you doing that, and okay maybe I've overthought this a little but I HAVEN'T SLEPT properly in a few days. ;D
Karen is the BEST EVERR and I love her a ridiculous amount. ♥

Uhhhh. I blame you for that entire backstory I just came up with. ;D

And on a completely un-related note, I keep fixating on your journal default icon. CHARLIE/CLAIRE♥

I SQUEED SO HARD. ♥♥♥ I went OMG KIRSTEN I LUFF YOU and OMG YAY and OMG SQUEE! and things of that nature. It was so awesome. She should be on more psych-outs!
And you keep fixating on my default icon 'cause Charlie and Claire are pretty and they keep kissing and it's very yay-inducing. XD
