Babbling

I got mail! TWICE! One lovely letter from rainpuddle13 and one very sweet card from water_jade. I love my friends. You guys never fail to make me happy.

I've realized that I have an appalling lack of The Police and Red Hot Chili Peppers in my music portfolio. This must be remedied post haste.

What is the name of the band that does that 'going the distance' song? You know the one.

He's going the distance
He's going for speed
She's all alone (all alone)
All alone in her time of need

That one. They have another one about a woman who changes her name from Kitty? to Kelly? or something like that. WHO IS THAT? I could Google it, but I'm lazy and I figure one of you will know the answer.

It is ridiculous that I'm thinking about turning on the air conditioner at night in the month of October. It is fall, damn it. Act like it!

I'm going to Richard's tonight for pizza and a movie. He's bringing the pizza and I'm bringing the movie. Although he picked it. We're going to watch 'Knocked Up'. So, you may have noticed the breaking-things-off plan is not going so hot. *sigh* I can't seem to find my backbone. Have any of you seen it?

If you haven't been watching caliga_rpg, you should check it out. I'm not playing because I suck at scening. I have to watch, though, because I'm feeling left out. :/ Because, you know, even if I didn't suck at scening, I totally have time for that with work being crazy and the million and one fics I'm being so very productive on.

I want to post 'The Proposal' on FIA because it will, eventually, be a story that fits the archive (and because it's my 'home' archive, the archive I love the most). But since all I have ready to post is that first Ginny/Lucius bit, I'm a little afraid I'll be chased by D/G fans with pitchforks. Perhaps I'll wait until I've got more of the story written. More prudent?

I haven't used this icon in a long time. I needed to break it out.

Bah, it's getting late. I'd better go get ready.

ETA: Stealthily corrected lyrics.

The band you're thinking of is Cake. The Distance and Short Skirt, Long Jacket are the two songs you mentioned.

PS: I don't need a pitchfork. I've got your phone number and high capacity lungs. &hearts!

Also, video for you (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2AMh2Ho346c).

[mugglechump.livejournal.com]

So that's one very important mark in the 'no' column. ;D

[mugglechump.livejournal.com]

Dur. Forgot to say that that video is awesome. Perfectly timed! Go Speed Racer. Go Speed Racer. Go, Speed Racer, go!

[mugglechump.livejournal.com]

Thank you! That's been driving me nuts. Everytime I hear one of the songs I think 'I should figure out who that is. I dig that song.' but I forget to follow up until the next time I hear it.

I have The Police boxed set and I can burn it for you if it would please you :)

[mynuet.livejournal.com]

Yes, feel free.

[rainpuddle13.livejournal.com]

I'm assuming you'd like a copy too eh? It can be arranged.

[mynuet.livejournal.com]

Goodie. :D

It was so weird today. Neither you nor the social worker showed up. Cognitive dissonance, man!

[rainpuddle13.livejournal.com]

Awwah, I was actually having dinner out in a nice deli about the time I normally talk to you and then I went to Krogers and wowed the girl with my $30 worth of coupons.

[mugglechump.livejournal.com]

I would love you forever! Ok, so that doesn't really change anything since I already adore you, but yes please!

No pitchforks here!

Ginny/Lucius sounds intriguing. I love my Malfoy me - as long as it ends D/G, I'm happy.

[mugglechump.livejournal.com]

Hurray! One non-threatening vote!

I hope it's intriguing. I'm just glad to have a fic where the plotline is pretty well deliniated. Maybe I'll actually *gasp* finish it.

[water-jade.livejournal.com]

Yes, I won't be after you with a pitchfork either. Lucius is still sexy.

...Plus, Kate has a Jason Isaacs thing, so it's bound to be interesting.

[mugglechump.livejournal.com]

Hee. Do you know I hadn't actually envisioned Jason Isaacs up to this point while writing this story. The smut is going to be so much more fun to write now!

I think the band is either Cake, or Beck. Not sure, I always get those two confused.

Here is your backbone! *lifts it up*
Now tell him, so he doesn't get hurt.

I DEMAND G/D!
