So many things to say and be excited about!
(1) I'm more than halfway through my latest knitting project, "Age of Brass and Steam", which is so fun and easy that I decided to make one for my Pants! I took her to Michael's to get yarn for it today. Unfortunately, the selection was super lame. Next time, I'm dragging her out to Babetta's for actual yarn. And this weekend I should be starting the Stephen West mystery shawl. Double excitement!
(2) I was able to link my lj to my blogger, so I can post via blogger - but still participate in the glory of fandom whenever I want. Sometimes I'm tech-savvy.... or at least, I google things until easy directions make me appear tech-savvy.
(3) I watched the first episode of Supernatural Season 4 last night. I'm working my way up to posting initial thoughts. Mostly they revolve around: a) Really? That's it? and b) CASTIEL!!!!
(4) I've decided that once GAKS starts their way through Angel, I may start an episode-by-episode review of that along with them. And possibly think about Buffy, also. Thing is - as interesting as I find both shows, Angel gives me so much more of an English-major-boner. Really. It makes me mad in a delicious way. Buffy... I love it the same way, only less so - I guess. I don't know. Maybe I'm just making up excuses...
(5) Twin Peaks is amazing... and I will start analyzing it soon. I'm still in a total WTF JUST HAPPENED?!?!?! mood about the whole thing. So I'll start up... soon.
(6) I'm about 6 episodes into the 2005 Dr. Who and... am still waiting to get the bug. I know it's coming, but I'm still waiting for it. I'm sure I'll have thoughts about it eventually.
(6) Two unrelated events:
a) My dad drove through and, after buying me a NOOK, promised to send me mp3s of all RUSH everything
b) Pants! was discussing doing an analysis of a song to start up her new blogger account, which I found totes inspiring and exciting
And so, ladies and gents, as soon as I get those mp3s from my dad (though I realize that grooveshark is available, I like to actually have better access to things) I'm going to start analyzing each song in date order. Though - only Pert's lyrics. As much as I just want to eat up the first album, let's face it - the lyrics are not even in Pert's league.
I'm super excited about this idea. It gets me out of fandom a bit, but that's kinda good for me - I burn out quick. And - I hope Pants! doesn't mind that I stole her idea, but I've been wanting to do something with RUSH for over 10 years... here's my moment!
And now it's time for bed... I didn't knit nearly enough today and feel slightly guilty about it. Here's hopin' tomorrow is more productive in that department.
