Tell me a scene that makes you melt. It has to be a scene that causes your heart to skip a beat every single time you watch it.

The scene that makes me melt every time I watch it is the Prom Dance scene. I love how close they are, Brian is leading Justin around the floor, so lovingly and they are sharing one of the most romantic moments; ridiculously romantic-Brian might quip. This scene also breaks my heart. I know what this scene caused (or at least helped provoke) and that kills me. I have a really hard time watching 122 because of the ending, I know that it is so real, and it very easily could be someone I love and care about.

This episode, for me, feels like being pushed off a cliff. It is so sweet with the dance, I am so happy for them and I wish I could be one of them, either of them for just a minute. Then I get shoved off the cliff and I am practically in tears and feel sick to my stomach.

I can't believe I've only posted like 3 times this month (not including posts in the asylums). I don't think this has ever happened before except for when I first started a journal.

Champ continues to improve. His last test results were so much better and so much closer to the normal range that I cried a little on the way home. Plus, in one week, he gained 13 ounces. So, I've decided to go ahead with my vacation plans (which I sorely need at this point). My sister is planning something special for my 40th and a dear friend is coming into town. After that, we're heading out on a road trip ending in a spa for a couple of days in Vermont. From there, we'll part company and I'll continue on to my sister's for Reason's first birthday. I'll be a few days early, but we're going to celebrate anyway.

I can finally get excited because I found someone to stay with Charger and Champ on top of my sis checking in on them.

I also decided not to cook dinner this year for Thanksgiving. I cheated and bought everything pre-made and I'm so happy about it. I'll have time to do the things I want to do. Happy sigh.

On a fandom note, I want to know something. Tell me a scene that makes you melt. It has to be a scene that causes your heart to skip a beat every single time you watch it. Post about it in your journal...or here in comments. I can't wait to see what you've got for me. :D

09:36 pm - Happy Thanksgiving to everyone who's going to celebrate it...
Wishing everyone out there a Happy (early) Thanksgiving because I'll be out of town for the next two days (Advanced education-lets just hope it will not be too boring!!) and I don't know if I'll get the chance to go online.

So.....

Lots of ♥ and hugs for my Flist!
I'm very thankful to have you!

10:08 am - Loud noises in middle of the night
Last night I was awoken by by a loud noise that sounded like something fell in the kitchen. Then a few minutes later I smelled what to me smelled like electronics burning. I woke Ray up from a dead sleep and we went exploring. It was then that I noticed the monitor button on my monitor flashing off and on. And the odor was really strong by the computer.

We unplugged it immediately and Ray took it to work today. We are hoping that it is just the power supply. All my graphic programs are on that computer, along with screen caps. I have screen caps saved on external hard drives and on Megaupload but that doesn't help me without the programs to work with them. Right now I am using my daughters laptop, and she has told me that I can download GIMP onto it, but I know nothing about that program.

If the problem with the computer is the motherboard It won't be until after Christmas, means that I will be limited in what I can do graphically for a while. Which sucks because I have the Friends and Lovers challenge over at [info]qaf_challenges to do still. Unfortunately I might have to back out of that one. I will know more tonight.

If you are waiting for graphics from me, please be patient, I will get to them I promise, it just might take me a while.

Edited for Update: Ray just called and said that the computer is fixed. The power supply was the problem. He will be bringing it home later today. I would of went crazy without my graphics programs

04:24 pm - Mid-week Hilarity
While attempting to avoid actually doing work, as per usual, I found two particularly wonderful YouTube videos. The first is by far my favorite. Hal Sparks is the officiant for a faux lesbian wedding in CA. It was a launch for a new equality clothing line, "All Love is Equal". It is very well done. And the brides even exchange rings...or more hoops (hula hoops).

Hal Sparks as a Priest )

The second one I found was the decade in 7 minutes. Its brilliantly done and hilarious. Although it is really scary to think that the decade is all but over...

In case you missed it )

05:16 pm - I did it!
*does a happy dance*

I have finally finished part one of my Grad School application. I needed to create a "writing sample", basically proving that I can write semi-intelligently. It is 14 pages long (if someone would like to tear it apart read/edit it for me, I would more than appreciate having another set of eyes looking at it) and talking about nostalgia for the former East Germany, in particular two films that came out about 10 years ago.

Now I just need to write my personal statement, outlining what I want to do and why, and exactly why I'm awesome, amazing, and wonderful a good candidate, so they will give me lots of money to go there! I have to fill out 6 applications and remind my recommendation letter writers to get them done and submit them. But I'm very excited because the hardest part is done, well besides fixing it.

I'm also hoping to have time to write my idea for [info]_alicesprings Friends and Lovers Challenge. We'll see, sadly applying for Grad school has to come first. I am completely stumped for my Christmas Xchange present, I understand what my person wants but I can't find a logical situation to get it there. Can I bounce ideas off of anyone?

10:42 pm - New B/J Vid-Shut Your Eyes...for [info]vl_redreign
(Start rant:

CHRIST!!!
I had to upload this damn video FIVE times before it finally worked!I don't know what's wrong with 4shared BUT they will definitely get a not-so-nice email from me.Lets see what their support team have to say this time.

End of rant!)

So,[info]vl_redreign has had a visit from her vid muse a few weeks ago while she was driving.Damn,can you believe that said muse was suddenly sitting on the passenger seat?Hm,seems to be a really weired muse....;D

Anyway,the muse gave her some ideas for a Brian cancer arc vid while Red was listening to Shut Your Eyes by Snow Patrol.Her muse was really persistent and told Red that she MUST talk to me and so she did...

Shut Your Eyes... )

DOWNLOAD HERE

Hope [info]vl_redreign will like it!!

Hey Red,I actually finished it BEFORE your vacation.Isn't that quite aaaamazing? LOL!!
Couldn't let you leave without watching it.♥

07:21 pm - The windy rambly thoughts of Xie
So, I've been working on Directions today.... it's so good to feel the fic flowing again. :)

I am going to try to finish it this weekend and send it for beta, although I may need next weekend to get it done. I should probably wait until after the Thanksgiving weekend to post it, shouldn't I?

In other news, I have bunnies for a Xena/Gabrielle fic, a Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer fic, and a Michael/Ben fic, and NO ONE but me really wants to read any of those things. It makes me sad, yo.

Although I also have a Drew/Emmett bunny and I know at least Travis likes to read those!

11:08 am - Emmett Wallpaper
I know I have been really absent lately, RL has really gotten out of hand. Since my daughter and her two children have moved into our apartment, things have been really chaotic. Please just nudge me every once in a while to remind me that I have a life outside of grandchildren. It seems that I have become the baby sitter once more.

I was going through some of my older graphic post over at [info]pfodge over on LJ and realized that I've never posted this wallpaper that I made of Emmett anywhere.

Photobucket

Enjoy.

Does anyone remember me?

I'm slowly...very slowly starting to crawl out of my hole. Champ is doing a bit better but he's not out of the woods yet. His recent test results are positive and he's eating more and more on his own each day but I still have to feed him and he still has his stomach tube.

Anyhoo, I'm going to try to be around a bit more at least to check my flist. I feel so lost.

Anyone interested in being a Guest Host at [info]qaf_drabbles?

Also, I still need lots of REAL addresses for your prezzies from the Halloween Contest, so email them to me so I can finish getting those together.

How is it possible I have no QAF Thanksgiving icons? I have every other freaking holiday!

Anyone help a fangirl out? Are there any Thanksgiving icons floating around you feel like sharing?

Love,

09:31 pm - I made a mess and I'm proud of it!
Yesterday I decided that my kitchen really could use some redecoration and so I took today off from work.I bought some lovely orange/peach colored wallpapers and then I did my best...

...to make a mess )

I did a lot of cleaning after the mess that I've made (The snippets from the old wallpapers were EVERYWHERE!!!) and I'm not done BUT I guess the dirt can wait till tomorrow.I'm sure it will not go away....
