- 00:48 I miss when TVLand used to only play old commercials and 50s-70s sitcoms and variety shows. #
- 13:53 My professor liked my paper idea! omg i'm so relieved and happy!!!! #
- 17:22 So, tomorrow is tea bagging day? Should I celebrate by downloading gay porn and watching John Waters films? #
Okay, so I was looking at Dreamwidth, and I wasn't planning on getting an account because I have like 5 different LJ clone accounts, but it looks so nice and it has so much potential!
Do any of you happen to have invite codes, and could I have one? :D

I got a new computer! It's a Compaq. It has a DVD burner, 2gb of memory, and a 260gb hard drive. It cost me $450, and I lurve it so much. It's everything I've always wanted in a computer. So much space! It's so freaking pretty, and it's the first computer I've ever bought. I'm quite pleased. :D I can't get my old computer to start up, but I think it might be a display issue so I'm going to try to plug it into a monitor so I can try to get some files off of it. Luckily, I've been moving stuff to my external hard drive pretty regularly, so I'm only missing files that I downloaded in the last 2 weeks and there weren't that many. It would also be nice to get my bookmarks. I lost all of my fic bookmarks, included my 4 folders of BoB fic. I don't read them as often, but they were handy to have for recs and stuff.
I just had this flash of inspiration for my Gender and Mass Media paper, and it felt good. I have an idea of what I can write now, and even if my professor shoots some of my ideas down, at least I came up with something! I think what I have in mind is relevant, and I think he'll be able to help me expand on it and it feels so good to not be terrified over that paper. :D I have to remember that great, "YES!" feeling because I think that can keep me going and keep me wanting to write rather than dreading writing anything ever.

- 23:03 My computer has stopped working. its cool though i've been planning on buying a new one anyway #
- 15:14 I dont have a computer at the moment but i can still tweet this: stop being stupid, Amazon! #amazonfail #
- 17:20 how stupid can Amazon be? stripping Walt Whitman bio's sales rank & lgbt nonfiction. Maurice is now inappropriate material. #amazonfail #
- 17:44 Angels In America's sales rank has been stripped. #amazonfail #
- 17:48 Ellen's biography too. So, if you are an LGBT author your sales rank will be stripped regardless of content? #amazonfail #
- 17:50 search 'homosexuality' on Amazon and you will only find gay 'cure' books. fuck you Amazon. #amazonfail #
- 17:53 Queer Theory books and media theory books with LGBT topics have been stripped. #amazonfail #
- 19:19 Tag Amazon #1 Seller, Liberty and Tyranny: A Conservative Manifesto w/ gay porn, gay, glbt, queer, etc tinyurl.com/d7j82k #amazonfail #
- 19:19 glitch my ass #amazonfail #
My computer stopped working, so I'm using Jaime's at the moment, just as the Amazon fuckup of the century seems to be calming down. Haley has been giving me updates all day. Seriously, just what the fucking fuck was that bullshit? They're now claiming that it was a glitch and that they're going to stop stripping sales ranks of LGBT material, but I'm going to continue putting 'gay porn' as a tag on the Bible and conservative books like their current best seller. This was a very very very stupid thing for them to do. I'm glad that they're not sticking with the policy, but I am so angry right now, I will avoid buying anything from Amazon for a looooong time.

1. Reply to this post, and I will pick six of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon glee.
queer_theory chose these:

This is an icon that I made of Annette Hanshaw. She was a singer in the 1920s, she sang Tiptoe Through The Tulips and Let's Fall In Love, among others. I'm not really into jazz or 20s music, but I remember when Jasie listened to her a lot, and I really liked her songs. She had a beautiful voice. I'm not quite sure why I decided to make this icon, and I'm not sure why I've kept it so long. I do like it, I think the contrast is a bit too high but not annoyingly so. It's simple and I think it's a gorgeous picture of her.

This is from Father Ted. It's a sign that the milkman has in his truck because he's the man-slut of Craggy Island. That episode is hilarious and I love this icon like a fat kid loves cake and I will never delete it. I find it's good for really random posts.

This was one of my first Band of Brothers icons! I like to think of this as a transition icon because I got obsessed with BoB after I was obsessed with All Things Simon Pegg/Nick Frost/Edgar Wright.

This is one of my newest icons. We watched Mitchell (MITCHELL!) last weekend, and then this week
iconzicons made a post of MST3K Mitchell icons. I was very pleased. :D

One of the Beatles icons that I made last year. This is my sleepy icon and I really really like it. Not only is John quite pretty in it, I like how I messed with the contrast and the curves a bit. I think it's one of my favorite icons that I've made.

It's my oldest icon! I made it when the newest Hummer ad campaign used that slogan. It made me lol, and I was still very much in the BTVS fandom, so I made a few icons with caps of Spike getting some action. I also made one with a cap of Spike in the episode with the Buffy Bot, but I liked this one more.
And now, back to watching the new Who special!

When you see this, post another Buffy quote in your LJ. Let's see how long this can go on.
"I want to take comfort in you, and I know it will cost me my soul, and a part of me doesn't care" - Angel (I LOVE THIS LINE! SO MUCH! You can just hear the swelling music, can't you? Aw man, season 3 Buffy/Angel was so funny.)
I'm starting a new meme! Mostly because I want to post an Angel quote that isn't him being lame.

- 00:02 I hope Colin, Mountaha and Salome stay on Make Me A Supermodel for a while. Why? Mostly because they're all crazy hot. #
- 00:42 Holy hot guys on The Colbert Report! What the hell? Is this Christmas or something? #

I went to my counseling appointment today and it went really well. I like my counselor a lot, she's really nice and funny. I'm sad she's graduating this semester and I'll have to switch to another counselor when I get back from London.
My professor in Gender and Mass Media talked about our final paper today. Sort of dreading it. I think I'm going to talk about Beatriz Colomina's essay about domestic space and relate it to sitcoms. I'm going to have to reread the piece a lot because it is really difficult, and I'm going to need to understand it really well. Sooooo scary. D:
Apparently, the paper is due on April 30, which is the day before my Political Ideologies final exam, which is the last thing I have to do and the first day of finals week. So, I won't have to worry about a bunch of shit during finals week and I can just focus on packing for London! Unfortunately, this just means I have to deal with doing a bunch of shit the week before finals week. If I manage my time well, this shouldn't be a problem. This weekend I'm going to read the Colomina article and I'm going to do research for my Political Ideologies paper. The weekend after that I'm going to write my Political Ideologies paper, and the weekend after that I'm going to do my Italian take home final and hopefully write a good amount of my Gender and Mass Media paper.
I hate school. And I feel so lazy for hating school when so many people work and have bigger courseloads.
And to make up for the boring school post, I'll use my awesome new MST3K icon. MITCHELL!

- 15:34 Netflix recommends "Critically-acclaimed Witty Comedies" and "Suspenseful Cult Horror Movies" It knows us so well. #
- 15:38 Oh, and "Romantic Musicals" Yep, comedies, horror, and romantic musicals really sums up our movie watching. #
It's a shame that Life On Mars US was cancelled. It was a good show. If you haven't seen it yet, because you are against US remakes or you just haven't had a chance, you should really give it a try. It's good. I didn't consistently watch it, but I'm going to try to catch up. I was super skeptical because I didn't want a terrible remake of my beloved LoM, but it was surprisngly good. It came into its own really early and it has its own style and world. I love the original Sam Tyler. For a lot of people the show is all about Gene, but for me, it's all about Sam, and I like the US Sam a lot too. He's a big dork and he's a sci fi fanboy, and he's adorable.
Also, Dennis Duffy is Sam's dad. C'mon, how hilariously awesome is that?
Wait. Wait. I'm watching the finale right now and I just got to the end. wait. wait wait. wtf wtf wtf?!
WTF?!
Wow, okay, the ending is COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY DIFFERENT FROM THE UK VERSION. wtf.
