There will be no capering nimbly.

I am now blogging for Fringe, sort of. I put that 'sort of' there because is one of the coolest things to happen to me in recent memory and I'm really nervous about jinxing it. Anyway, my first write up is here and it makes me smile

My first exam is in five hours.
No, I am not panicking.
Yes, that was a lie.
I've gotten to the point where I hoard any books that seem relevant to my needs and use them to make a fort around me. When I get around to figuring our which ones are actually worth anything to me I have to bring the rest back, shuffling around like Richard III.
Yes, that's what I'm studying.
I could use this as practice for getting all of my (uninformed and unoriginal) ideas out there, but I'll save my word-vomit for this afternoon.
Instead, let us take this time to appreciate how sexy Ian McKellen is as Richard. We are ignoring the fact that McKellen doesn't like girls, is much older, and that Richard is a creeper of the highest calibre.
Oh, and RDJ has a slight role in this film version, for those who don't appreciate McKellen's obvious appeal.
You should be converted now.

I'll be honest, I don't know a whole lot about the saint vitus blogger, but what I do know is enough. She makes delicious-looking (and, I'm sure, -tasting) pies and is shares my talent for chronically destroying the elbows of sweaters. She is also a brilliant artist who creates images combining gorgeous lines and startling attention to detail.

Now, back to panicking.

    And, upon reading it, I'm not surprised. It's brilliant.

    Also, this post is Ian McKellen-approved.

  6. @Julia: Thank you so much, love! The barricade is currently in action right now and I defy any opponents to take on my fortress of sexuality in Gothic literature. Hiyaaaah.

    @Lynda: Awww--thank you for the support and for checking me out. I noticed that your picture has Mounties, so I am naturally intrigued. :D
