Saturday is still TWO WHOLE DAYS AWAY! *must kill time*
* They found the lost scenes from Metropolis! I cannot wait to see this in the theater. The entire film! *squee*
* Biologist totally pwns creationist. Awesome.
* I’ve been listening non-stop to PJ Harvey, Portishead, Hole, Jack Off Jill, Tapping the Vein, Juliette and the Licks, Garbage… pretty much anything edgy with a female vocalist. PJ Harvey’s early stuff is so raw and amazing, and Portishead Live at Roseland is the best live CD I’ve ever heard. (I bought their new one but um, switched back to Live at Roseland after about two listens.)
* I just checked ![[info]](http://www.journalfen.net/img/community.gif){kind=small}
fandom_wank and, wow, I knew there was a reason I’d taken ![[info]](http://stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif){kind=small}
doctorwho and ihasatardis off my flist. Sheesh. And this is just the lead-up; god only knows what wankstorm the finale will unleash.
* I’ve been so absurdly busy this week that I still haven’t had a chance to re-watch “The Stolen Earth.” I’ve seen it once, in two parts with ten hours in between, while exhausted and drunk off my ass, and with a friend screaming in my ear every two minutes. I think I might skip Coney Island tomorrow and stay home to watch Doctor Who again. Yes, I know, I’m weird. But I haven’t had a day to myself since last Friday, and I need to recharge before my Doctor Who finale party on Saturday. (I have friends coming after all! Woohoo!) And I need to make more cupcakes… I’m thinking Rum Raisin and another batch of Banana Split….
* This day in LJ history:
* 2007: I was listening to the new Velvet Revolver album and getting excited for the upcoming Velvet Revolver/Alice in Chains tour.
* 2006: I was (BIG SURPRISE!) bitching about an evil roommate who wouldn’t pay her rent and was mean to my cat. And I was excited to see Chemlab in DC the next day.
* 2005: I was in the grip of a horrible, horrible crush. This is about the time I developed my aversion to tequila. The less said, the better.
* 2004: I was going to see Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban in IMAX over and over and over, squeeing about Remus and Sirius, re-reading the Harry Potter books, and looking forward to Writercon 2004.
* 2003: I was trapped on the cheap crappy crumbling CRUISE OF DOOM with my parents and brother, resolving never to vacation with my family ever again and desperately missing my Spike website. On the plus side, I was reading A Song of Ice and Fire for the very first time.
Current Mood: 
busy & 
tired

They found the lost scenes from Metropolis!
Dude. Just how awesome is that? I can’t wait! *bounces*
I… I just don’t know what to think of the new Portishead album. I am aware that it’s pretty much a piece of art, and I can appreciate it as that. I’m just not sure whether I like it or not, and if I like it, if it’s something I would like actually listening to a lot. My sense-making may have gotten lost somewhere in that sentence.
TWO DAYS!
Calm breaths. Calm breaths.

I’m so happy about Metropolis. One of the best things about (kind of) going to film school was getting to watch all those gorgeous classic movies in a real movie theater. And to think that pretty much everyone had given up on ever being able to see the lost scenes!
I haven’t listened closely to the new Portishead album yet. I just… was bored, I guess. I don’t really know anything about the band and just started listening to them recently, but I love how on the Live at Roseland album the vocals are so full of personality, and on the new album I didn’t get that same spark and sense of life. My mind may change when I eventually listen to it again, though.
TWO DAYS!
I KNOW!!!! *tries to breathe*

If only that creationist fuckwit had the wit to understand the letter - or that I for one minute believed he’d actually read it. *sigh* Because it’s brilliant.

I’m sure the wit is lost on the creationist moron, but I love that it’s making the rounds of the internet. At least plenty of others can appreciate it. :)
