The apparition of these faces in the crowd

Today (and really the past few days) have been very good days.

1. hp_monthly. It's a monthly Lusty Month of May type thing. I'm helping out with archiving and the like, because I'm insanely anal and love doing those sorts of things. But it's a monthly fic challenge. AND -- if the first theme turns out to be Remus Lupin (like I'm crossing my fingers for), you can use all your LMoM fics over there!

You know you want to join. Doooeeeeit.

2. GOING TO NYC! And I MAY manage two times this summer. Extremely sad to see Sunday in the Park with George is closing at the end of June. Coincidentally, there's a bus trip from Erie to NYC on the closing weekend... and I"m on it. Mom bought me my ticket for a birthday present. Second row, balcony, centre stage. Rock on. Also... I'll be in NYC for 16 hours on the 28th of June. Not really sure what all is going on or what, but if anyone wants to meet up for lunch or something, that'd be aces!

The other NYC trip will be (if I can swing it) in July to see my imaginary boyfriend perform again. Waiting for single tickets to go on sale and hopefully there will still be tickets insanely close to the stage. Ralph... doing an hour of Beckett all by his lonesome. Liam Neeson will also be there performing Eh Joe and Ralph is doing First Love. Please keep your fingers crossed there will still be seats within the first three rows. After seeing him in Faith Healer I refuse to sit farther away than that. The man's an amazing actor, but it's all in the eyes and facial expressions.

I'll stop gushing.

3. Car window still working! Which is good because it's a nice 72° outside! Score.

Your turn! Need to get a vent off your chest? Have something to squee over? *points to comment button* tell me all about it!

BTW!

hp_summersmut signups are now open.

Go forth and sign up!

Bugger. We have lots of ice and I think my car is COVERED in it. Do I get a snow day where I can tell my boss to go take a flying leap?

Of course not. *sigh* dammit.

In other news, it's February 1st! All those watching hpvalensmut take a gander. And if you're not watching... get to watching. I'm tres excited for it.

And finally -- this is coming out again this year! If you have one and I haven't seen it, let me know. I'm all about sharing the love.


Get your own valentinr

*gets ready for work*

Come on... I wanted the alliteration. *g*

In any case, things have been good. I can't tell if this sinus infection is still refusing to leave me or if it's just my damn allergies being a pain in my ass. But things are going good on the home front. No complaints to speak of, really. Seems strange to have my life back after Millie has ended. I still feel like I should be heading down to the theatre in about an hour for the sunday show. But in good news, I'm going to be playing Nine at the end of November down at Gannon. I am SO looking forward to that. It's one of the shows I really adore, mostly because of one song at the end of the first act.

What can I say -- I'm a sucker for those multi-voice songs?

Otherwise, spent the night at a casino on Thursday as mom's birthday was on Friday. Didn't win a ton, but I came out with more than I went in with, so I suppose that's a plus.

Am SO looking forward to going down to DC in... dear god, it's a little over a week!! I'm staying with jateshi for a few days and am going to pack as much into that time as possible. Including going to see THE most amazing concert on the face of the earth with wook77. We're seeing the National Symphony Orchestra conducted by Erich Kunzel playing the music of John Williams. Every bone in my pops loving body is GLEEFUL over this. Then also going to try and catch up with cruisedirector and chrome_animagus. It should be a blast. :-D

Still blocked on the fics though. *headdesk* I have one of my two fics for snape_after_dh written and the other, I'm a third of the way through. merry_smutmas continues to glare at me from across the room. Though I think I have an idea for it at last. I've been thinking about this assignment since I've GOTTEN it and am only now getting an idea. Stupid muse.

♥ So tell me, loverly flist. How was your week? ♥

I'm actually going to pimp this properly, rather than stick it on the end of my post like I did last night.

Annnyway.

hp_summersmut -- a summer ficathon community. Because we need porn in the summertime and who doesn't like getting gift fics?

Sign Ups will start on April 4th. :D
