My Broke-titude

1 Comment

I need money. I may have to take two more classes afterall, and I want, no, I NEED, to go to Dragon*Con again. In addition to Cliff Simon, I see they’ve just added Ianto from Torchwood. It would be nice to see an actor who’s actually the size of real people and not the “actor” size, which tends to be much, much smaller. I’m not going to go on and on about money troubles, but suffice to say, if I had enough money to spare for D*C, I’d be a very very happy girl.

For the last 12 hours, I’ve had The Lord of The Rings playing.  Sure, I’ve taken some time from watching to do housework and watch DW (which was much darker than I’d imagined).  Now, a little part of me feels lost.  I haven’t watched LOTR in its entirety for quite some time and I’m a little surprised it still moves me just as much as the first time ’round.  I guess it’s something that’s just going to stay with me…hopefully, forever.

My, oh my. That phrase keeps popping up, doesn’t it?

Jason Momoa is going to be at Dragon*Con. I am not. Do you see the problem here?!? I considered borrowing the money to attend just to see him. Seriously. Had it been Sean Bean, I would have, but I guess I can live without seeing Jason in the flesh. Jason, flesh, Jason, flesh. Gah! It’s probably best that I don’t go and make an utter fool of myself, a la, Cliff Simon last year. I should try to hang onto that last shred of dignity I’ve been clinging to for so long.

Yes, it’s best that I not attend this year. Be warned, however! I’ll have the money to go next year and should Jason return, I can’t promise I won’t be “that girl” who does something to embarrass herself and everyone around her. 😆

Notes:
I met Cliff Simon in September 2006 at Dragon*Con and wanted to make a Baal vid ever since. I always felt that deep down, in the absence of being a god, Baal wanted to be a member of SG-1. This vid is basically a daydream of Baal’s, upon realizing what Anubis has planned for the galaxy; he’s dreaming of all the “fun” he would have with SG-1 and what it could be like to be a member of the team.

There’s not a lot of snazzy editing, and there’s actually a lot less Baal footage than I thought there was. I guess I was confusing my dreams with reality again. Hee!
