Did you ever notice how many cool things you'd like to do when you realize you actually need to do work instead?
I've got to do some MoleCell tutoring today, and also start reading my infamous pile of papers--and all I really want to do is hang out and bs with my friends. This is what I get for actually becoming social I guess, but dammit, it's worth it. So here I am, procrastinating again. Darlings, it's good to be back.
Well, first off: The writers of "Buffy The Vampire Slayer" were beta-testing their plot devices on me, and that's why my life went to crap in such an uncharacteristic way. I finally watched the infamous wedding episode, taped kindly by Sam over break
(WARNING WARNING SPOILERS AHEAD TO ANYONE WHO FREAKING CARES)
So yeah, Anya is all excited and ready to get married to dear old lovable Xander. She gives this whole speech about how she didn't get love until she met him. How she always saw it as people just bringing pain to one another, but now, she gets it. And she begs him in her little monologue to take care of her heart, because it's all she has. This little speech is a voice-over of Xander running away in the rain. Yeah. SUCKSVILLE. Buffy breaks up with our blonde little Spike in another episode, because it's "killing her" on the inside to keep dating him. That doesn't sound familiar at all. I know, now is when I'm starting to really sound like a geek. But I love the show, and frankly, minus the demons and vampires. . .it's the most realistic show I've ever watched. It deals with real issues, in a funny but still dark and honest manner. Damn, I love that show.
Speaking of weddings, let me go off ala Alice style and say it's nuts. I've been sworn to secrecy here, but for goodness sakes, you told an entire lounge your plans, man. What the hell were you thinking? For the most part, see Alice's journal to get the rant I'm aching to give. It's fucking stupid, and when it was announced I just turned my head to the TV, because I knew the expression on my face was 1 part horror and 1 part disgust. For christ sakes, what the hell did you two just talk about? Perhaps she's relenting or something, but I thought the agreement had been to put that issue off for a while. This isn't awhile, since originally your plans were for this summer too. I know I should stay out of this, but dammit, it's so brilliantly stupid I can hardly believe it, and most folks would agree with me. You want to lose her? Here's a good way to do it.
Although, since fate and I are becoming such *close* friends, I am aware that because this sounds so on-crack, it is probably most likely to work. Because fate doesn't care too much for fairness, but insanity is damn entertaining.
Anything else? Not yet.
