WOO-HOO! Got an A on my Major Songwriting Assignment of Quasi-Doom! Have rewarded self with a trip to the CD store in search of the new Barenaked Ladies CD. Alas, they didn’t have it yet, so I shall return in a couple of days. The waiting will make it all the more sweet!

Our next Songwriting assignment appears to be a paper analyzing a symphony of our choice. Or something along those lines; the teacher only mentioned it in passing. I toyed with the idea of asking her if I could do Pink Floyd’s “The Wall,” as it is quite epic and has a narrative of sorts. As I mentally dismissed the idea, Prof. Weesner said “Is there anybody out there?” (the name of the second track of the second disc, as well as the last thing said before launching into “Comfortably Numb,” one of my favourite Pink Floyd songs), which I took as a Sign From God that I should at least consider it. After all, Prof. W is the sort that would probably be very receptive to such an idea. Hmm. I shall ponder at length.

Hurrah! Webchat with Chris Rankin on October 30th! The interview on the linked page is rather interesting, as it presents conclusive proof that Percy is, if not God, at least Jesus. Boba Fett status still pending.

Mon and I couldn’t resist. Presenting the first image for the Very Secret Project!

January: The Shrieking Shack

Mmmm, an entire calendar of Marauder generation-y goodness! Enough to make one wish we used the Mayan calendar and had 13 months instead of 12!

Wow. If I’m ever in a bad mood, I think I’ll just go to the Evo section of Ff.n. So much hilariously bad fanfiction… oh, my sides. In the fic I’m reading now, poor Gambit has no one to play Scrabble with, because Magneto is, I quote, “too busy being evil.” Oh, Fanfiction.net, what would we do without you?

Note to self: One should not attempt to CG bloodied-up werewolves immediately after seeing “Fight Club.” Too much source material. (Of course, it looks absolutely amazing, but still.)

The Very Secret Project, take 2! Coming your way this December!

One month down, eleven more to go! (Eep!)

GAUGH, my palm is fine, but wherever I have hair on the back of my hand, it’s like ripping off the world’s biggest band aid. OUCH OUCH OUCH okay done.

Who the heck would use this liquid latex stuff as a sex toy? Masochists?

EDIT: And this is why I should read the instructions first.

Squee! My blue body paint arrived today! It’s a lot brighter blue than I pictured, but it appears to darken as it dries. (EDIT: Yes! It’s now a lovely slate-ish blue color!) Now typing one-handed as I wait for the second layer to dry on my left hand as I try it out. I might have to bring my fan back out of my closet to speed the process.

This is fun! I wonder if anyone else in my suite is dressing up for Halloween this year…
