I'm bored.

Today has been declared lurker amnesty day! Have you read me but never commented? Do you surf by occasionally? Here for the fic? Say hello! You are under no obligation to ever comment or delurk again, but here's a chance to do so in a post just for that.

I don't think anyone actually lurks my journal, but who knows?

From moirariordan:

1. Reply to this post, and I will pick six of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon glee.

( She gave me: )

That meme I keep seeing everywhere where you post a sentence from all your WIPs:

1. Brendon grinned and walked out, unable to keep himself from shimmying a little when the door to the business closed behind him.

2. Spencer met with him two hours every day for the first two weeks of his six week stay, and one hour every day after that.

3. Spencer’s drumsticks were in his back pocket, and he was holding up his cell phone trying to get reception.

4. Ryan was all arms and legs, too skinny by half, and his face seemed to be set in a perpetual weary expression, as though he was constantly thinking about how the world was too exhausting to even deal with, and his voice was such a drab monotone that Brendon immediately wanted to do something to try and shake him up, make him lose his world weary façade. (Holy run-on sentence, Batman!)

5. Ryan immediately got very animated, which entailed a lot of eyebrow movement on an otherwise expressionless face, and began telling Spencer about the musical he’d written. (This is actually a co-WIP with Elissa, but I think we've abandoned it.)

6. Ryan looked disappointed for a moment, then Brendon suddenly yelled, “Oh, my God, if we don’t go soon I swear I’m going to go blow Frank, you guys.”

7. Two years later, and Brendon thought maybe he was going to be okay.


I really need to finish some of those.

Comment to this post and I will give you 5 subjects/things I associate you with. Then post this in your LJ and elaborate on the subjects given.

Given to me by wishforhome:

1. Rolling Stone
I decided to listen to all of the albums on the Rolling Stone Top 50 of '08, mostly because I like hearing new music. I realize that Rolling Stone isn't exactly the best authority on what is "good" or not anymore, but I always feel like any kind of exposure to music I haven't heard before is a good thing, so even if the list isn't perfect, I don't really care. It's introduced me to so many artists that I've never heard before, and that can't be a bad thing, even if they aren't always to my taste.

2. Bob Bryar
Okay, seriously, who doesn't love Bob Bryar? I want to cuddle with him, no lie. I think he'd be the BEST cuddler.

3. Spencer/Brendon
When I first got into bandom, and then Panic fic, I was ALL about Brendon/Ryan. I didn't even want to read any Brendon/Spencer stories, but I did because I needed new fic. And idk, it just kind of snuck up on me until one day I realized that I prefer it. So, yeah. I don't tinhat them or anything, I just like the pairing the best.

4. Battlestar Galactica
I didn't want to like this show when I first started watching. I'm not a big sci-fi person, but Battlestar Galactica sucked me in. I'm pretty sure the whole Kara/Lee thing is what really did it, but I stuck around for everything else, too. I kind of wavered in my interest during the third season, but I'm back in. It's a really awesome show.

5. Obama
I love him. He gives me hope, and I haven't had that for this country in a long, long time. George Bush did a lot of damage to my faith in politics and this country, but slowly, Obama is bringing it back for me. I know he can't fix things overnight, but he's made me believe that ultimately, he will. I can't not love someone who can do that.

I got tagged on Facebook (YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE) but I'm doing it here, because I have a grand total of two friends on Facebook and also I don't really know how to use it.

Rules: Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose up to 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.

( More than anyone ever wanted to know about me. )

I've been wracking my brain ALL DAY trying to figure out a way to do this, and then moirariordan came up with the GENIUS idea to do it like a friending meme, so!

How it works is that you upload a song for each category and then post a comment on this entry with the songs, and basically create a mix. You don't have to do a song for every category if you don't want, but it would make it even more fun. And you can add categories if you like, or substitute them, even. There's no hard or fast rule on this, it's pretty much however you want it to be.

The categories:
<b>A song for a lazy afternoon:</b> <b>A song for when you're in love:</b> <b>A song for when your heart is broken:</b> <b>A song for your crush:</b> <b>A song that makes you want to dance:</b> <b>A song to go to sleep to:</b> <b>A song that makes you think of sex:</b> <b>And any song that you love so much you want to share:</b>

Banner for pimping, should you so desire (and which I would appreciate):

It's just such a cool idea, I couldn't resist.
