Y. Effusive, embarrassing, and possibly kinda scary amounts of gratitude to [livejournal.com profile] romanyg for paid time. You're awesome with the love and make lj a cooler place to be, and not just for the random fairy gifts on the doorstep!

A. And: I'm back! For good this time I think. I helped my brother move to Gainsville, Florida--I'd never been to FL. Or Mississppi or Alabama. It's humid in Houston, but Florida is SWIMMING in it. Seriously, if you can't hold your breath for long times underwater, don't go to Florida. I nearly Wicked Witched of the West'ed.

Y. Ask a question, any question about me, about fandom, about fic, about lj, about you, about oompas or hatracks or zits or finely carved small foxes, and I'll answer to the best of my ability. Unless I don't feel like it; then you're screwed. But no, really, I want to play! *blows breath on window and draws heart with fingers*

! ZOMG thank you again [livejournal.com profile] romanyg!

S: YAYYYYYY paid time by other people!

E: Oo Florida. I'm in GA. Houston < 33 hometown. :D

X: Why do so many people think the sub-genre of horror/thrillers that is Dead Teenager Movies are lazy? Okay - so the plot is basically a bunch of teenagers being killed, but there's so much effort and work that goes into making people look like half of their head was chopped off with a motor! /random

Houston is your home town? Generally I don't like it, but it'd be more fun with you here ;o)

I think the reason people, myself included, feel that way about Dead Teenager Movies is because I place importance on writing and concept over special effects. This is of course because I am biased towards content over aesthetic, and the few times when I'll take the latter at expense to the former is when the aesthetics are extremely pretty or creative, as in "The Cell".

But dude, you've opened my eyes to people's heads half chopped off by motors. I'll totally respect it more next time I see it. And all that fake blood! The ketchup it must take.
