chillax, or the art of failure when you're not supposed to be lurking

[regala_electra]

Okay I should be taking a lj-vacation but I'm not. Instead I'm ignoring that which makes me grouchy and focusing on the fact that after being a RIDICULOUS lightweight last night, I am almost in better spirits.

And just for a general Statement About Me when I am highly irritated by things, I can become incredibly bitchy. Then I feel insanely guilty about it. I am almost to that point. But for now, I'll concentrate on the good. Such as chillaxing, the art of being chill and relaxed. Chillax is a douchey enough word that Chad Michael Murray would totally use it, wouldn't he?

This is probably why in RL I am always drawn to the douchebags. Because I think like that sometimes. Huh. I guess it's good to be aware of that, at least.

I need to force myself to NOT buy the second season of Lois & Clark this weekend. I know I will regret it. I don't really want it that much. So why is the urge still so strong? Damn that cheesy, cheesy show. *shakes fist*

*



I have a feeling this season is going to suck.

Reg is going to show Suede a magic trick if he keeps talking about and TO himself in the third person.

Everyone seems to be made of failcakes in their own special ways. I had high hopes for Korto but the black jumpsuit was booooring. I should admit I have an extreme hatred of ruffles so I found Emily's AND Blayne's dresses to be grooooss. But Emily was worse because she was delusional enough to think that thing she put together was in any way acceptable and she did not Listen to Tim Gunn. JESUS, people. Who the fuck do you think you are? If he takes the time to state that something is a problem/he's worried, it's for a good reason.

I kind of get annoyed when people throw around the word "architectural" when they mean something more like "geometrical". That being said, I think the skirt made by Leanne was really stunning.

I despised the print that Kenley used. I think the top of that dress was disgusting and extremely dated.

The fact that everyone sews about as fast as though they've feeling the effects of elephant tranquilizers is...not inspiring.

I think I need to rewatch Burn Notice. I finally remembered to watch it on time (I never seem to remember it's on Thursdays) but I was a bit out of it so I barely remember the plot. Jesus. It is sad that two Mike's Hard Lemonades (the Pomegranate flavor) knocked me on my ass.

So next weekend I shall be in possession a jennem (sadly not all to myself, I do have to share her with other friends, *g*). We are definitely going to walk across the Brooklyn Bridge one day but since we are both lamers, there shall be no visit to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island because we didn't buy tickets in time.

Which I don't mind, 'cause hey, I can always view the statue from afar. And it'll encourage Jenny to come back to NYC at least one more time so we can finally see the damn thing.

On that note, my fellow New Yorkers and tourist-y type people alike, what's one thing in NYC you'd love to do? A specific place you've always wanted to go to but never made the time to check out?

In conclusion, Jared and Jensen don't have nothing on my Ben Browder. As snagged from titti, Ben Browder kisses Michael Shanks.

No, I do not know the backstory or reason why Ben Browder is laying down some real manlove. I almost don't want to know. That image right there? Gets filed in my happy place.

Oh Ben Browder. YOU are my favorite. *draws hearts and sparkly stars all over your bunny suit*

I need to stop looking at that or I'm going to become incoherent.

Other then the requisite museums? The Cloisters! I haven't been there in a dreadfully long time. Or Coney Island. Is the theme park re-opened yet?

I just re-watched that episode and yeah... Kenley should NOT have been in the top 3, even that motherfucker Suede had a better dress than hers. Blayne needs to get the magic trick too. A LOT.

ETA: Bad lurker... *shakes fingers* Go to Loch Ness.

[jennem.livejournal.com]

I've heard from friends about The Cloisters. They highly recommended it.

:D

[memphis86.livejournal.com]

They are very right! It's really peaceful and lovely there.

Hi! Reg and Stef speak very highly of you, miss.

[jennem.livejournal.com]

Hee.

Hi, hi!

That's very nice of them, considering I HATE BOTH OF THEM BECAUSE THEY GET TO HANG OUT ALL THE TIME, WHILE I'M STUCK 1000 MILES AWAY. :D

[regala-electra.livejournal.com]

OH SHUT UP. I'D HANG OUT WITH YOU IF YOU WERE HERE. BUT YOU'RE NOT.

AND I LIKE STEF MORE.

I ONLY PRETEND I LOVE YOU.

SO THERE.

[jennem.livejournal.com]

[shakes fist]

You are so getting hugged. You just signed your hug-warrant, srry2say. ;)

[regala-electra.livejournal.com]

Don't make me get a werewolf to imprint on your baby.

I haven't been to the Cloisters in fooooorever. Now I think I'll see if jennem and nariya are interested. I dunno about Coney Park, I'll see what's going on there.

Kenley's dress is utter fug. I actually disliked Suede's since it didn't fit with his photo at ALL but I just really want Suede to not do well at all because I loathe him. I sincerely doubt Blayne's human.

[memphis86.livejournal.com]

Noooooo they be imprintin' on mah BB!

Yay Cloisters! And actually I was thinking of Joe's dress, haha dumb. Joe and Kelly's dresses were AMAZING and they should have been in the top three. *pouts and kicks Blayne*

I believe Blayne is actually a Blaynacle. A walking talking barnacle.

[jennem.livejournal.com]

So next weekend I shall be in possession a [info]jennem (sadly not all to myself, I do have to share her with other friends, *g*). We are definitely going to walk across the Brooklyn Bridge one day but since we are both lamers, there shall be no visit to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island because we didn't buy tickets in time.

YAY. OMG. I CAN'T WAIT.

It has been too long, dahling. :D

Also...

[jennem.livejournal.com]

Reg is going to show Suede a magic trick if he keeps talking about and TO himself in the third person.

HAHAHAHAHA.

<3

[regala-electra.livejournal.com]

OMG I CAN'T WAIT EITHER. Please don't try to hug me! I fear hugs. :-P

[jennem.livejournal.com]

Oh, please.

When have I ever not hugged you the second I saw you.

History says that you are shit out of luck. :D

[regala-electra.livejournal.com]

Ok. You can hug me. Just don't touch my boobs.

[jennem.livejournal.com]

I can safely say that I will not be touching your boobies, not matter how fascinating they are.* ;)

*You really can't blame me. As I have no boobs of my own, its a given that I would be fascinated by yours. :D

[regala-electra.livejournal.com]

Excellent. This is good to know so I won't have to defend my virtue.

[embroiderama]

Leanne disturbs me in that, "I have to be totally perfect and successful at everything or I will me a total failure and spaz out," sort of way, but her dress was fantastic. She totally should have won that one.

[regala-electra.livejournal.com]

I don't think Leanne is long for the show especially since she gets so overwhelmed by her initial concepts and really struggles to get it to the finished product. But I really loved what she designed and it was a great way to incorporate her image and a night on the town in NYC, compared to all the other dresses.

"I need to stop looking at that or I'm going to become incoherent."

TOO LATE OMG.


NGHHHH!!!!!!

[titti]

Sorry for barging in, but in someone else's LJ, you had told me there was going to be an Angel challenge soon, but I can't remember the name or time frame. Can you point me in the right direction? Thanks.

[kita0610.livejournal.com]

I did?

You sure it was me?

*confused*

[titti]

It was a while ago and we were discussing something or other in onelittlesleep's LJ and it turned to the lack of fics in the Angel/Buffy fandom, and I was just thinking about it last night (yes, after a few months because I'm a little slow lately). Don't worry about it, though. It's not that important. *g*

[regala-electra.livejournal.com]

KITA. I just. DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE TO STOP LOOKING AT IT. I can barely say anything about it without verging into TMI.

[titti]

The Museum of Natural History. I keep saying that we'll go, my kids have gone with the school and we've gone to the one in DC and I've never been to the one in NYC.

Ben Browder rocks. He needed no reasons or backstories. He came on stage and kissed Michael. That's just so frakking cool.

[regala-electra.livejournal.com]

The Museum of Natural History is awesome. We've been, me and Jenny. You should totally go.

Really? Ben just came on on stage to kiss Shanks? I think I love Ben even MORE now.

[titti]

Yes, he just walked in, drink in hand and kissed Michael. Isn't that AMAZING? You gotta love the guy.

And please look at their faces, and the closed eyes, and *sigh* Best moment of the con.

[sloane-m.livejournal.com]

*stares*

*stares some more*

Okay that is totally perfect. Ben is awesome.

[regala-electra.livejournal.com]

Ben is one of the most amazing people in the history of ever. He wore a BUNNY SUIT for his fans. Ben Browder > everyone else.

[raelala.livejournal.com]

hooooooooookah

[kellifer-fic.livejournal.com]

Hehehee... what I *love* about that picture is they both don't have the squishy faces of homygodonlyjokingwe'restraightness... they both look relaxed... :D

[elrina753.livejournal.com]

Ben Browder kissed a boy *flails*

I love him so freaking much. *flails more*

My brain isn't really processing much more beyond that.

[hebrew-hernia.livejournal.com]

Ben Browder kissing anyone: fantastic.

Ben Browder kissing Michael Shanks: FANTASTIC OMG.

JOHN FUCKING CRICHTON.

[redbrickrose.livejournal.com]

Thanks for that Ben Browder picture. Umm, wow.

[coppersinger.livejournal.com]

Thanks for brightening my night by linking to the yummy picture, Reg.

[tabularassa.livejournal.com]

Yeah. To what you said about the douches and the chillax.

[midnitemaraud-r.livejournal.com]

If it's a nice day, take the Staten Island Ferry to SI and back - you can get a tan on the top deck and see the Statue a bit closer. And I'm pretty sure it's still free.

The Museum of Sex was pretty fun. It's pretty small, but you can watch some of those vids for hours. (And yes, they have gay porn) Just don't touch, mount or lick the exhibits. :-P

[netweight]

The many, many reasons there are for loving SG1. Let THEM SHOW US it! ;)
