I'm in my hotel room in Vancouver, playing on the internet and watching tv. Also in Vancouver tonight are Adam Lambert and the rest of the American Idol contestants, and probably the actors from my favorite tv show, Supernatural, which should be starting to film again soon. I, however, have no desire to get off this couch. I fail at stalking.

I go home tomorrow! I am so, so, sooooooooooooooooo excited about this prospect. I miss my house, my cat, my couch, my tv, my hobbies, my tennis team, my friends, my own internet connection. 12 days is a long time.

Also, on Monday, my nephew's wife gave birth to their son! I am a great-aunt! His name is Brody and he's doing well - he has a small problem with his lungs, but they say it's not a big deal. I missed his arrival by 24 hours. *pouts* Although honestly it's for the best because if she'd gone into labor on Sunday, I would have had to leave in the middle and that would have sucked. I was thinking about it this morning, and I decided I am going to make my mom a cross-stitched family tree for Christmas - it's always hard to buy stuff for her, but I think she'd really like this, and I ordered the kit today - if I start now, I should be able to get it done by Christmas.

I'm back. I've gone from skip=400 to current on LJ tonight, and found out that Panic at the Disco is splitting up and LoudTwitter is no longer posting my twitter stuff on LJ and that the internet just generally sucks right now. I am sad.

Also, I miss my cat.

More soon about my vacation and more crazy cat-lady adventures and stuff but now? Bed.

I'm off to the wilds of Missouri for a week, as always little to no internet access, or at least little to no access that doesn't come with a family member looking over my shoulder.

Happy Fourth to them that celebrates it! Happy 'Thank god we got rid of those annoying assholes' Day to the Brits! And cheers to the rest of you, see y'all next week!

For bandombigbang, I signed up for doing a fanmix and got to make a soundtrack to go along with sunsetmog's totally hilarious and cute high school au about Panic at the Disco being faily and in love. You should totally read it, it's PG-13 for those of you who aren't into the pr0n, and snarky and funny. It is here, along with links to listen to or download the mix I made.

Anyway, I didn't realize when I was doing it that a lot of people put in the quotes that inspired the song choices, and I wanted to do that, and she was kind enough to humor me, but it got a little long so I'm putting it here instead.


( tl;dr, omg navel-gazing ahoy )

• 08:49 @krazycat I do, I do! *stares mournfully at giant ocean between us* #
• 08:51 @zillah975 Thanks! I had looked at @persiankiwi #

Ok, so I want to preface this with the fact that I understand the seriousness of the situation, truly, and I am not trying to lessen the importance of political unrest and rioting in a country with growing nuclear capabilities. But as I watch reports and see photos coming out of Iran, I just have to say one thing...


There are a lot of really, really good-looking Iranian guys out there.

Just sayin'.

• 07:56 Have to work downtown this week so had to get up early & look respectable. Donuts & giant soda have eased the pain. #
• 09:48 @writeplayrepeat Aw, it was my pleasure! I had a great time! #
• 09:49 @jivetalkinmama Yeah, I only travel about 15% of the time now, which is pretty much the inverse of what it used to be. Go internet! :) #
• 22:10 is so, so sore. Two days of wearing heels and playing tennis (not at the same time, obvs) is catching up with my feet. #

• 17:40 Tennis victory! It was close but we managed to pull it off. #
