The Death of...

The Death of TV Theme Songs
http://www.cnn.com/2006/SHOWBIZ/TV/10/20/tv.themesongs.ap/index.html

I know it's a polarizing issue, but I love tv theme songs muchly. Makes me sad that they're not popular any more. How are we supposed to play "guess that hummed that theme song" games without actual songs? I dunno. I understand the time-saving and cost and all... but I still really like them. They perk me up and get me ready for a show. They let me put names to faces. They give me time to remember everything that's happened before and sometimes relive moments. I miss them.

Holiday Giftfics & Halloween Ramblings

It's not that time of year again!

I'm doing NaNoWriMo this November, so I'm not going to have any time to write any giftfics during the month (unless, for some reason, I finish my 50,000 words early). So it's going to be a mad rush in December, I think. But I still intend to write giftfics this year. I just wanted to give a heads-up that they might all be difficult to complete in time, and might be a little shorter than usual. I shall nonetheless do my best.

So you've got a month to contemplate your heart's desire and decide how to propose it to me as a request.



And OMG I can't wait until NaNoWriMo but Halloween is killing me. I think I'm going to have to go to the Halloween party guys at work are throwing. Argh. I hate drinking and dancing. And I don't know what to be for Halloween... it's been so long. I'd do the vampire thing like I used to, but two girls are already doing that. Right now, I don't know what I'm doing. I'd like to do HP but some people at work have strong opinions about the books. So right now, my ideas are down to: Hockey player (which I think would look awful and kind of pieced together, but I have the pieces) or Witch (which would look much more attractive but I'll have to scramble to put together a costume- but it'd be kind of traditional for me). Argh. So much work for something I don't want to do. LOL Maybe I'll pick up a six pack of pumpkin ale to bring with and it'll be so bad it'll distract from the fact that I'm there. :-)
