Spur of the moment decision to make Max’s shirt when I get home tonight. Picking up shirts to destroy at H&M.
This may end up being ‘Max on a budget’.

“Can I be candid? I don’t like all of Tyler Perry’s films. Yes, I did work with Tyler for ‘Daddy’s Little Girls’ because it portrayed a positive image of a black father. I am happy for Tyler’s success…we need Tyler Perry…by going to support his movies, we need to show economic strength. But we are also responsible for elevating film. I’m not with buffoonish characters like Madea or Big Momma.”

Half way through A Game of Thrones!
I read so slowly these days, but somehow I managed to read 100+ pages this morning.
Excited because I have book two sitting in my bag waiting for me.
And this time my mom can’t take it away from me.
(That’s why I never read beyond book 2 in middle school. My GRRM and Anita Blake books were among those confiscated by my parentals >.>)

If this is true, I need time to mentally prepare myself for that level of genius. I’m not worthy.
Definitely needs an actual app for ease, BUT! I’m listening to google music on my iPhone on the starbucks wireless.
You win this round, Google.
There is probably something problematic with what Gail is going on about on twitter right now, but I can’t right now on my phone.
I wish DC BNFs and others would just shush for a hot second.
Edit: I should say, more accurately, it’s bothering ME. This continued attempt to justify this Batgirl thing is as annoying as it is transparent.
Oh, and um, the Cubs had an adorbs celebration huddle/jumping/hug thing last night. I am glad I watched that game, even though there was no Beard— which was technically a good thing. Because then the Giants would have won.
But still, boys. A+.

Lolz. Right. You knew me Freshman year.

I'm gonna post some old fic
Because it’s hillariously bad.
Is that cool?
Do people do that?
I guess I am.
Do you get any invites? …And feel like sharing? ;)
No invites, but you can ask Google nicely for one here, I think. It can take them a little while to get back to you though.
pancakemckennz replied to your post: I got my Google Music Beta invite
Wait. How does this Google Music work? Is it Cloud based?
Yep, cloud based. You upload everything from your PC (you can use multiple PCs), they keep it… whereever they keep it, and then you can access it anywhere you want. There’s an Android app as well, and I’m hoping for an iPhone app, because that would be perfect.
I got my Google Music Beta invite
I really really like it. Because I only have 16 gigs on my ipod (I know, #firstworldproblems) I don’t get to listen to all 6,000+ songs I have on the computer (more #firstworldproblems), but I stuck everything on Google Music and BAM! I decided I wanted to listen to Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Who today at work —neither which are on my ipod— and there it was.
This is one Google expansion I can get behind.
LMAO. I hid the formatted version of my thesis so well in the bowels of the internet that even I can't find it.
Whoops.

Coworker: I’d prefer not to call [WME agent with intense reputation]. To be perfectly honest, s/he’s kind of terrifying and I don’t feel comfortable calling them as just an assistant to ask for this.
The Starling: I don’t care if you’re scared of him. Do it.
Coworker: No, but really, this is probably going to sound better coming from you since you’re the head of the company.
The Starling: I don’t want to subject myself to calling someone with their reputation. It might be upsetting.

“You feel more like a baseball player in the National League versus the American League. In the American League, you’re a pitcher. Over here you’ve gotta pitch and hit, run the bases, feel like a baseball player. Anything you can do to help the team win you should take pride in it, you should take it serious and try to do the best you can. That’s what I try to do with hitting. Like today, I got up to the plate with a runner on third with less than two outs. You gotta take advantage of those opportunities. I don’t know how most guys look at it, but I’m trying to hit a sac-fly right there, and I did, so I feel gratification by doing that. It helps the team win, so it’s important.”
—Cliff Lee (via thehighestheels)
All of this is honest and true. All of it.
