Karma Laundrette

Took the kids to see Harry Potter this morning. Not a touch of line for the 10:40 showing in 3-D. I will say this: see it in 3-D (normally I can take or leave it,) bring tissues, and go to the bathroom during the trailers. I have a headache from crying. Oh, and not having breakfast. (McGonagall!! I love her. LOVE. Wish her part was larger, but I understand.)

#2 said as the credits rolled, "Now I have nothing to look forward to for the rest of my years," in the most dejected voice ever. Awww, we have had the best memories made from Harry Potter moments as a family. No matter what, I am grateful for that. (And Weasley is my King.)

I have the next Glee recap up, it's the one where Jesse St. James shows up and Idina Menzel starts her story-arc as the rival coach. I love her and made a cocktail in her honor, the Elphaba-tini. It's green, natch. :)

I have to go grocery shopping and it's 105 degrees, it was 108 yesterday, not including the heat index. Oy. We are in some serious drought conditions here in Texas. (I still manage to have a green lawn and flowers without running the sprinklers. Go me! *g*) Oh, the point was that I don't want to be driving in this heat and lugging sacks of food, but everyone's all "I'm hungry" and they refuse to eat the pets. Way to think of the environment, kids.

OH! Exciting gaming talk: I finally have become hip to Oblivion. The Mr. and I stayed up way too late getting acquainted with that game. Dude. Bad. Ass. And you can clearly have completely different experiences playing it from the start, depending on how you build your character. THAT is how you make a game, folks. If you were ever into DnD, and you've not played this, you need to get correct, son.

OK, groceries, and then my monk Elf is going goblin-hunting. NERD ALERT!

This is uh-may-zing. Harry Potter mash-up with "Hello!" from The Book of Mormon the Musical.



JUST MADE MY DAY. I love that Hermione "cut" her hair short, too. LOL. (Snape FTW!) [ETA] Equus!! How to Succeed! A Very Potter Musical! OH MY GOD, WATCH OVER AND OVER.

Firefox updated a No Script yesterday, and now when I click a link in Gmail (and ONLY in gmail) it doesn't open in a new tab. I use tab mix plus and have no issues with links on other pages, just Gmail Anyone else having this problem? It's freaking irritating. (Note: I have selected in Options to open a new tab when clicking links.) Anyone else? Just me? Should I get that sand out of my vah jay jay and suck it up? My fingers have been trained to do one thing, and they can't do the other... FIXED! Not that anyone offered me help or advice. Where mah nerds at?? *checks secret pocket protector signalatormatron's batteries*

And because I hate whining online, here's a link to the Greenskeepers "It Puts The Lotion On Its Skin" which makes me laugh so hard. Nothing like a Silence of the Lambs musical. *whole heartedly approves* "I think I'll make myself a cap from your right buttocks cheek" Ahahaha. Ha. Ahem.

Oh, oh! I read some fics last night that TORE ME UP. So painful and wonderful. Under the cut as they have Deathly Hallow spoilers. ( Man, there is a wealth of fic out there! )

Feel free to rec me anything good you've been reading in Jossverse, Sitcom-verse, HP, PotC... It's too hot to work in the garden, and so? I read. And I love my new default icon with the power of a thousand suns. ALMOST THE WEEKEND, PEOPLE! \o/

Because they are CHILDREN. Of age. So, okay. Maybe I'm not so bad. I'm writing Ron/Hermione dry humping fic set in Grimmauld Place and I LIKE IT.

Also, I just mapped out a "Silver Spoons" AU parody fic with Draco as Jason Bateman and Harry as Ricky Schroeder and Sirius as the dad. And I can't stop singing the theme song. (Dean will totally be Alphonso Ribieri.) Ooh, no no! Lucius is the dad, Draco is Ricky Schroeder, and Harry can be the conniving Jason Bateman! It will be from a Slytherin POV, obv. Ahahaha.

Where's the Love Boat fic with McGonagall in the roll of Charo? "Cuchi, cuchi ay yi yi!" *shakes her melons* Snape is obviously Isaac, the bartender. *shoots guns* Hagrid as Gopher, Hermione as Julie the cruise director, and Harry Potter, as the Beaver. Wait...

I am screwed up in my hede.  I know this.  I give you the best ship EVAH.

( I give you: McGonallBottom )

Oh god, I can't finish this.  I have tears squirting out of my eyes.  I actually saw a RW/HG fic today and they had a "romantic meal" of mashed potatoes and stew.  WTF??? 

This is HOTTTXXXX!!!11!!
