This Is Not A Democracy

Okay, so I'm frantically looking for the old SGA fanvids we used to love. I've found the amazing skroberts' Mad World in my Gmail (♥) but I would still really love to find copies of these ones:

- Johnny Feelgood
- Wicked Game (the original McShep one)
- Running Up That Hill (the Placebo cover of the Kate Bush song)
- Falling For the First Time
- Here's to the Little Guys (a vid about all the secondaries in the series)
- Collide (by tiranog - I don't remember this one, but Julie does)

We've also just found some fucking ridiculous conversations we once had in which we named Joseph May "Squishpuppet" and "He Of The Face So Gay There Are Eight Colours In His Pride Rainbow."

Boyan, on the other hand, was "An Argyle Cardigan. For Rock Climbing In."

There may also have been a conversation about how the Serbian Orthodox Church was essentially a Bloody Mary cocktail.

Have been in touch with Dell. They are sending me a new adaptor. WOOHOO!

Not sure how soon, but if I remember correctly it was within a couple of days, last time. Desperately hope it's dispatched today. Surely they have those premade, right?

In other news: Psychic Development last night was Of The Awesome. Apparently, I'm good when it comes to the ghostlies, even if I could read your biography and not be able to tell you fuck all about yourself (unless you're a little-known actor and probably based in Vancouver).

Also: Tim Matthews (#3 in the TCO network) has a website, but just for his music. KWEET! ♥

Also also: Still nothing from Boyan. :( I dunno... you try to do someone a favour...

ALSO also also: it's my birthday nine days after anw's (making it 26th November). Far be it from me to steal his decadial thunder, but what do you bitches fancy doing? I'll take suggestions and then do a poll at a later date. My birthday this year, my 24th I'm not ashamed to say, falls on the Sunday immediately before the Monday when I get paid. Which bites. However, would people like to go out for a nice, quiet drink or dinner on the Saturday and then celebrate proper the weekend after? The choice is yours.

Pimp in comments. Danke.

My capacity for weird sleeping patterns impresses even me, sometimes. I went to bed at six am this morning, got up around seven in the evening (having been out of bed twice, if you include the time Elise phoned to ask why I wasn't at coffee) and have felt somewhat inclined to go back to bed for the past few hours. It's only four in the morning, now.

Maybe when I move to Vancouver I'll work a graveyard shift somewhere. I'm definitely more inclined towards the night. It's no wonder my boss calls me a Goth, really. And he hasn't even seen the novelty photo-shopped imaged of my glowing-red eyes and fangs.

On another note, Julie and I were talking about Boyan, earlier. We're a little puzzled and concerned that the last thing we know he was working on was filming over a year ago. I suppose there's a possibility that he's filming something now, but if it was that big a role, or that significant a project, it would have appeared on his IMDb by now.

Odd.

We're both still really looking forward to Within being released. The trailer looks better than we anticipated, although I'm a little bitter that I could probably act better than either of the girls. Not that I really think I'd ever get paid by anyone for acting. I mentioned to my dad that I thought I was too fat to be an actress (currently a British size sixteen.. with a size 12 waist) and he 'reassuringly' countered, "Oh, don't say that - you could be like Kathy Bates."

Um. Cheers, Daddy.

I do get curious, though, about what actors do on their non-filming periods, if they don't own half of LA. I know some bit-parters 'job' where they take every-day jobs, like temping, in between - but it's hard to imagine some of them doing that. I know that Joe May, who is one of the guys we plan to host on the Camera Obscura, does voice work. He's probably better at that than he is at acting on screen. It's not his fault. I just think that at some point someone told him to play to his strengths, and he's pretty with outrageous eyelashes, so ever since he's worked the puppy-eyes and little else.

Oh - and while I'm here, I wanted to formally thank Cliff Crego for giving me permission to use his poem on my LJ layout. I think it's a lovely and totally apt little poem, and I'm glad he said I could.

Still reading Jarhead. I got to the Troy part in the early hours of yesterday morning. Cried. No surprise there.

I really can't wait to go and see it again. Still no icon. Must fix that.
