Argh,

yuletide. I finished my story and uploaded it about fifteen minutes before deadline. :-/ I actually considered writing two stories for my recipient anyway, and then

schneestern got out her porn-fu while I was like, four hours away from deadline and I suddenly thought I should start another story for my recipient. THANKS JULES. Anyway, the porn story is not the story I uploaded, but I may very well finish it just in case my other one sucks. I can distract from the crappiness with PORN. Works every time.

So now I have like seven bajillion other stories I want to finish before Christmas, and pinch hits are going out tonight. Cue me, huddling in a blanket with seven half-drunk cups of coffee sitting around me and my fingers bleeding.

Um. Hmm. I watched 30 Days Of Night twice the other day, once by myself and once with my siblings, and I am definitely crushing a little on Melissa George.

Josh Hartnett was not too shabby himself. Ben Foster was, unfortunately, quite shabby and I would really like to see him in a role soon where he doesn't look like a total skeev/creep/psycho. And it was a pretty creepy movie, despite some fairly large plotholes/flaws.

I'm fairly sure I'm just going to go through a phase for every single person on Alias. I may have had a five-second fling with Michael Vartan the day before yesterday.

(Jennifer Garner looks mighty fine in these, too.)

That last one reminds me so much of this one of Jensen:

Or a mix of that one and this one:

There is a very good chance, however, that that's only because there is only so many ways to dress/pose pretty boys. HINT HINT MORE NAKED WOULD WORK.

Michael Vartan is one of those people that looks way better on camera than he does in pictures, I have to admit. He always looks really wooden/uncomfortable/awkward in pictures. :-/ Hence the not having very many I like.

Ok, yeah, I'll own up. I think Bradley Cooper is pretty freaking hot, too.

And I realize that I'm made of fail and missed both

angel_kathryn's and

psychotic_scam's birthdays. :( I hope you both had wonderful ones, and if there's anything I can do belatedly to make them better, let me know!

Also! I got cards from

vagrancy (eee! glittery penguins SO CUTE),

crazydelicious0 (French! and your handwriting is so PRETTY I am jealous!),

_onebreath (OMFG MICE IN MITTENS AND CAPS *DIES FROM THE CUTE*),

semirhage527 (GLITTER GLITTER GLITTER IT MAKES MY LIFE), and

pink_faerie81 (MORE GLITTER AND PINK AND REINDEER AND ROAD TRIP HOMG!) Seriously, so much glitter on my desk right now and I really couldn't be happier. :D Thank you, lovelies!

Oh, but as cool as your cards were, they don't match up to the TWO nearly identical cards I got from the John Edwards campaign. Sorry. (I KEED I KEED! Obvs.)

I am very much looking forward to all the 3:10 To Yuma slash when yuletide opens up

Eeee, me too! I kind of want to write something for one of the dropped prompts/Yuletide Treats - I have several other fic challenges and exchanges to finish up for the holidays, including two Prison Break stories that I'm in the middle of and am late on, and all I want to to is write 3:10 to Yuma slash :p

It's funny, I remember way back when, Ben Foster was on this cute kids show on the Disney Channel or something on Saturday mornings, called Flash Forward - I think it was about a girl starting junior high, and he played her best friend, and I remember thinking he was cute, and I've always been excited that he's become pretty successful since. But it's funny to think that he started out as the cute sidekick/best friend and is now making a name for himself playing mostly psychos and drug addicts (have you seen Alpha Dog? Man, he is scary looking in that one).

Oh god, I can't even let myself go look at the dropped prompts/treats or I will go NUTS wanting to write a million of them. I'm trying so hard to get drabbles and stuff written up for people on my flist who made wishlists, but if I can get those done before the archive opens, I'm going to be diving in there headfirst. :D

I never actually saw that show, but my siblings watched it. YES OMG. He was SO SCARY in Alpha Dog. I literally got goosebumps the first time he came onscreen. And have you seen Hostage? He's just as terrifying in that. I adore him as an actor, but good god, I think he goes looking for parts where he's creepy. :D

I know! And now that they're down to a handful that still don't have stories and there's a couple I can write, I keep thinking, "it wouldn't take too long to crank out some MASH slash... no! You have other stories to finish first!!" :p

Have you seen Sin City? The Elijah Wood character? The crazy, murderous yellow guy? That's like exactly what Ben Foster looked like in Alpha Dog. Really creepy.

Yep, Elijah Wood freaked me the eff out in Sin City, especially because I was so used to seeing him in these normal, boy next door roles. But damn if he didn't do a good job with it.

I realize now that I made that sentence totally confusing, lol. I have actually seen Alpha Dog, just not Flash Forward. :D And yes, god, SO CREEPY. I had a hard time not being creeped out by him, but he was so protective of his brother that it was hard not to be a little sympathetic, too.
