Poor British browncoats! The Serenity UK release date is November 4th.
Also, interesting. It’s not going to go anywhere, but interesting.
OMGBRILLIANT!!! The full version of the HHGTG “trailer for a trailer” can be found here, immediately below the Vogon Poetry pic. Infinitely better than the version I posted yesterday and UTTERLY HILARIOUS AND SO TRUE. The world must see it before the link goes down! I read somewhere that it’s supposed to be released tonight, so the UGO video may not be up much longer. Of course, it’s evening in Britain…
Oh! You see how below, I comment on the prettyness of the snow and comment that I wish it meant school was cancelled? I am officially awesome, as they ended up cancelling evening classes. I didn’t have to go to rehearsal!
Now playing around with new potential layouts for the Queer Student Alliance. And getting distracted downloading free fonts by the truckload. Oh, fonts! Why must you be more addictive than crack?
See Hitchhiker’s Guide movie trailer about the Hitchhiker’s Guide entry for movie trailers! See Zaphod preen! Preen, Zaphod, preen!
Muchas gracias again to Becky for the link!
Following the meme, 10 things I’ve done that you probably haven’t:
1. Gotten hugs from Neil Gaiman and Stephen Colbert.
2. Nearly been shot with a bow and arrow.
3. Fallen off a fence impersonating River in “Objects in Space” at a Firefly shindig.
4. Been bitten by a parrot a decade a go, and still have the scars.
5. Done a table dance before a paying audience. *snerk*
6. Created a website used in quite a few school curricula.
7. Built a model rocket that, when set off (not in my presence, alas), flew some ridiculous distance and apparently hit a moving car on a highway quite some ways away.
8. Never broken a bone.
9. Watched all 7 seasons of Buffy and 5 seasons of Angel in a single summer.
10. Had my first “all-nighter” working on a presentation binder for my high school engineering club. Finished it two minutes after I had planned to leave for the competition.
Honorable Mentions:
12. Was one of 5 students recognized in the Undergraduate Fine Arts Juried Exhibition this year. Won $200.
13. Learned that Terry Pratchett cannot spell when he wrote in my Book “Abraham Linclon because he ha a cool hat.”
A live-action, full-length movie of Terry Pratchett’s Lords and Ladies. On 300 Euros.

I am entertained.
Mmm, look at that lovely snow! I only wish it meant classes were cancelled. *merrily edits paper*
Oh, fandom! You always know what to do to cheer me up! Paul Kidby releases UK cover art for Thud!
And while I find this delightful, what is the Lost fandom’s obsession with giving Charlie Pippin‘s lines? Not idly do the fingercuffs of Driveshaft fall, hah. They do know Dom played Merry?
AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Just got an email from Jany, who commissioned me to design and implement a website for the Queer Student Alliance. Originally, she told me they didn’t need the website running until Spring Break, but then a week ago, she told me that she wanted it up today. I told her I’d try my best, but that I could make no guarantees. It’s certainly not going to be done tonight, as I have a Paper of Doom to write, so I emailed her this afternoon and told her I’d try to have it done by Friday. Anyway, Monday, I had emailed her a mockup of the design I had in mind, and as of this afternoon I still hadn’t heard back from her, so in that email I also asked her what she thought. Apparently, despite my efforts to fulfill her specs to the letter, it’s not what she had in mind at all. IF YOU WANTED “FUN”, YOU SHOULD HAVE TOLD ME “FUN”! YOU TOLD ME “CLASSIC”. I GAVE YOU “CLASSIC”. YOU THINK IT LOOKS TOO “PROFESSIONAL”? MAYBE THAT’S BECAUSE YOU TOLD ME YOU WANTED “SERIOUS AND PROFESSIONAL”! IF YOU WANTED “LIVELY, FUN, ARTSY, AND ALMOST EXPLORATIONAL” YOU SHOULDN’T HAVE LIMITED MY COLOR PALETTE TO FRIGGIN BLUE!
Okay, I’m done. Back to my paper. I am so not thinking about this tonight.
