Contradictio in Terminis

What ho, LJ-land! Things have happened since my last post - many Things, including but not limited to: two countries*, one exam, one epic Megaupload fiasco (? I'm still catching up on this) and Other Stuff which I will inevitably forget to post about, and that's fine. (But my God, I still haven't made my New Year's Resolutions yet - maybe on the bus Friday, with Hanna...)

( UNDER THE CUT: Happy Discworld blather and POSSIBLE TMI re: food/body image/Sarah being just plain weird and annoying )

KAS;DLFKJ;ASDTJ;ATKJ :D :D :D :D :D

TODAY WAS A GOOD DAY! :D

I am so heppi rn. Love to everyone!

( and retroactive love, of course, to Leonardo da Vinci, who would be 559 today. Or a zombie. He may have been a genius, but for once, I'll take my end of the deal :D )

ASD;LJKSD;LHTA;LSDF SO I DIDN'T ACTUALLY FINISH THE ROUGH DRAFT OF MY APPLICATION UNTIL AFTER I'D BROWSED THROUGH ALL 33 PAGES OF PTERRY FIC ON AO3 LAST NIGHT. DEAR SELF: WHUT IS THIS EVEN.

NOW I HAVE TO ACTUALLY EDIT THE DAMN THING. YEAH, CAUSE THAT'LL GO WELL.

ANYWAY, I HAVE NO PRIORITIES, BUT I DO HAVE A NEW BOOK! (LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL, Chloe and I are the worst shoppers ever, because we both believe in impulse buying and we went to Chapters. RECIPE FOR AWESOME DISASTUH RIGHT HURR~). I now have Terry Pratchett's I Shall Wear Midnight in my room, and I'm preparing to bid goodbye to any productivity, ever. O HAIIIIIIII TIFFANY, PLEASE CONTINUE TO BE YOUR AWESOMELY BAMF SELF! :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

In other news, SO MUCH TO DO ARRRGHH AHHHHHHHHH! EXCEPT THOSE ARE SCREAMS OF HAPPY!STRESS, BECAUSE MOST OF THE THINGS ARE GOOD.

Tuesday:
- Go to work (morning)
- Buy nail polish (on way home from work)
- EXERCISE ASDFL;AKSDJG (afternoon)
- BRO AROUND LIKE A BOSS :D
- Family stuff (7:00pm)
- Homework/edit exchange application
- Video games??

ALSO, I WISH SOMEONE FROM WORK WOULD TAKE MY SHIFT, AS I AM NOT GOING TO BE IN KINGSTON FOR IT, JS. D-:<<<<<<<< GDI, if I have to explain this to my supervisor, heads will roll, and unfortunately, mine will be included.

HOOOOOOOOOOLY CRAP, I JUST FINISHED READING TERRY PRATCHETT'S UNSEEN ACADEMICALS, THE LATEST INSTALLMENT IN HIS DISCWORLD SERIES, AND I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT IT THAT THE MOST COHERENT THOUGHT I CAN MUSTER GOES SOMETHING LIKE THIS: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

( Lj cut for your safety: none of this will make any sense unless you've read the book/are familiar with Discworld. Also, spoilers for Unseen Academicals, but you knew that already. )

*I am sure there are other people who respond to above-average levels of excitement in the same way I do. I just haven't met them yet.
**This paragraph is also technically a Tyranny.

Saw TDK for the third time today. Saw it in IMAX, finally. Was fucking EPIC, obviously.

Watching it, I have decided that Jim Gordon=Sam Vimes, trufax. Don't know how I didn't see it before.

And they showed the Watchmen trailer!

That is all.

I wonder if anyone's ever compiled a Discworld playlist/mixtape-type-of-thing? What songs d'you think it would include? Definitely some Songs With Rocks In, but what else? It would be massive to accommodate all (or most of) the cultures of the Disc, and then all (or most of) the main/recurring minor characters... And then there'd have to be multiple songs for the majority of the characters because that's How Things Are Done. Er.

And it would make up multiple posts because people would keep adding their own interpretations of different songs, but even before that, the initiator would probably want to include a few snippets on specific songs in re: why they're included and whom/what they represent, etc., etc..

And alright, I'm tempted to do it. But a) there's not really a large audience, is there, and b) my taste in music is probably... questionable by others' standards. I wouldn't know. I've never bothered to find out. (And c) TIME?)

Regardless. It's a fun thought.

What would Vetinari listen to, I wonder? (His little read-me Wossname doesn't count.) Can You Feel the Love Tonight? - Elton John. Obviously.
Or Death?  Would he  be into ... I don't know, Gregorian Chants? Or maybe musicals or something? *coughMontyPython'sMeaningofLifecough*
