Kids.Arrgh!

I was responsible for my nephew, Cage, for two and a half days and OMG am I tired. Seriously, how do people manage? He’s probably the most lovable, intelligent, adorable six-year-old ever, but he damn near killed me. I’m more convinced than ever that I don’t want kids, not because of Cage, just because of my low energy level.

I am pleased, however, to announce that I have recruited a miniature sci-fi fan in Cage. He loved SGA and Doctor Who, and that just makes me so proud! He already loves Star Wars and Harry Potter, so we had a blast hanging out. We watched Superman Returns, which he was kind of meh about (and so was I), oh, and he LOVES vids. His favorite was the Spiderman vid listed on Fanvid-Recs. Yes, he’s a great kid and he’s so frellin’ cute!!

My aunt and cousin from Ft. Lauderdale are in, as are my uncle and aunt from Knoxville, so we’re having a bit of a family reunion this weekend. Unfortunately, they all ventured down to their childhood hometown and won’t be back in time for dinner, so I’m on my own for tonight. Hmmm…what to eat in preparation of STARGATE night?!?!?

p.s. I’m on an Egyptian kick again, so default theme? Egyptian :wink2:

p.p.s. Going from the fridge to the cupboard and back is NOT helping dinner selection. Food has not, and will not, magically appear.

p.p.p.s.  Narayan isn’t coming to visit.  Eh, f’ him.

Oh, OH!

Oh, PLEEEEEASE let SGA play out like I hope it will. Using footage from this season (which hasn’t yet aired, but dammit, I KNOW how it should go), I *just* storyboarded a vid. I don’t care what anyone says, I like Three Days Grace and “Riot” is going to be a kickass vid. I’m just waiting for “Sateda” to air. Please, in the name of all things Gate, let it play out like I hope it does.

Wilderness fun…or not.

I’m in Canaan Valley for a conference. If I was an outdoorsy kind of girl, this would be great. As it is, I’m in my room, which has (honestly) chairs made of logs, playing on the internet. We have a great cable selection, though, so I’m good. I’m here until Thursday and I’m still waiting to figure out what the heck I’m doing with Ben and Jesse. Hey, guys, if either of you stumble upon this, let me know the actual dates of your vacation.

In “End of an Era” news, Video Elite has announced that VE Awards will no longer be awarded. It’s partly due to the number of small “award” sites that have popped up and also, I think, due to the fact that some vidders are relying on too many special effects, filters, transitions, etc., that it makes the vidding pool a little convoluted. I’m proud to have received my six awards from them and to have contributed in finding vids as well. Thanks, Barbi and Marie! You made fanvids what they are today! :love:

Oh, new (and default) theme, Now. It sums up my current fandom love 🙂
