not looking for God, only for myself

Found this on tumblr! It looks fun, and I could use a distraction after a crappy day at work.

Give me a fandom, and I'll give you...

1. My het OTP:
2. My slash OTP:
3. My femslash OTP:
4. My endgame OTP:
5. My original OTP:
6. My crack OTP:
7. My guilty pleasure OTP:
8. My anti-OTP:

Yeah, I realize that I have a listing of fandoms and my ships, but some of them didn't make the list yet so ... ask away. There's bound to be some surprises. Ask for any fandom you think I'd be familiar with, or just look at my userpics for a closer look. If I have a hard time with a fandom you give me, I'll let you know. (Also, yes, Sev, you can ask for original characters for shits and giggles.)

Well, now we've started feeding the birds outside of our home. Which we always did, but lately we have to make sure we put out bird seed on the front steps in a little bowl so the birds won't steal the peanuts from the squirrels. Like, yesterday we had this group of starlings--which are very beautiful birds, I discovered--appear out of nowhere and sit on our front porch for hours, and they kept stealing peanuts. We haven't seen them before and we'll probably never see them again. That's how random their appearance was. And don't even get me started on the pigeons.

We're insane for taking care of these animals. Not that I'm complaining. They stay away from the windows and our cats, and they never leave a big mess, so it's no big deal.

Starting the day after today, I'm off for a week! I can get started on checking something for the Spring 2010 semester I'm aiming for, and I can be free and nerdy! I'm going to try and get my glasses fixed, and probably get some writing done.

(Also, I had this weird Teen Titans dream that wasn't about the Teen Titans at all but characters and settings were imagined in that style. I only remember a rich snotty girl forced to be some hero or something. Oh and I've been awake since five in the morning on eight hours of sleep. It was weird.)

I'm currently listening to Celine Dion. It's all your fault, flist.

Poland was hit really hard by the death of their president, his wife and ninety other public officials. Watching the week of mourning occur on television and seeing all those people together is...really depressing. The Polish community here in Chicago is just as passionate; they held a morning mass and they're honoring a local artist who was killed in the crash, someone who sought to educate people on the Katyn Forest massacre of 22,000 Poles.

I didn't know much about the president or the country's politics, and it makes me a little embarrassed to admit that, considering I'm mostly Polish. It did inspire me to look more into my cultural background and remind myself of my roots. I'm sure my grandparents would've wanted that.

On a lighter note, I'm off for the week, until I have to go back next Monday. Work today was a little dull, since I worked escalators instead of an aisles, but I preferred that for the day. It was quiet! And the weather was a little chilly, but it wasn't so bad.

I found this meme on my flist, by bringthefate. I filled it out a few hours ago, but I forgot to post it, so here you go.

Holy crap, I fell asleep at seven o'clock last night and woke up at six o'clock this morning because Fievel went after the birds, AGAIN. Crazy! I'm still tired, too. :/ At least that I don't have work until five o'clock tonight. There's time for me to relax, get some reading or writing done, and put my feet up.

You know that "Goodlife Recipe" cat food? We just discovered that my dad's cat Milo really likes it; he bought it on clearance this morning, and Milo started eating it straight out of the bag. I wonder if it's really as healthy as it's marketed? It would be nice, because Milo's getting older now and we need to watch his health. All of the cats treat Fancy Feast like it's their candy - because Little Baby only wanted to eat Fancy Feast when she hit a certain age and we only fed it to her at the time - so a change in their diet wouldn't hurt.

Edit: If you have the Firefox browser, there's this add-on where you can read a new Calvin and Hobbes strip every day. A Calvin icon shows up in the corner of the status bar; when you click that, the strip pops up. I already love this add-on!

Working on your feet for ten hours, when you're not used to it? Murder for your feet. Honestly, they haven't hurt this much in weeks. The work itself wasn't so bad, it's just that I'm not used to walking around and standing for ten hours, with only one twenty minute break as "relief". :/

On the plus side, at least I worked ten hours, and work for the next three days; I'm going to have a very awesome paycheck.

On the plus side, I saw this meme going around where you post your favorite Disney songs. I'm not sure how anyone else did it, but I've seen people list their top fifteen, so I did the same. This was really difficult for me, because I love a lot of Disney songs and it's hard for me to rate one over the other. (Also, I'll type longer explanation to some of the songs later. I'm in a hurry to get to work. Sigh. :/)

Oh my God, I am sore. My neck and shoulders really hurt, and I was up all night with my scalp hurting me. I think I'm getting sick, because I haven't felt this sore since 2006, when I graduated from high school ... lost my voice completely, got body aches, and couldn't get warm like, at all.

:/ I hope this isn't a flu bug, because this is my last week of school and I've got a paper to write tonight and tomorrow. Why couldn't I get sick last week?! I skipped my classes twice, for God's sake.

Oh, well. At least I'm off from work this week.

A more positive note: I'm thinking about posting my semi-private Mytho/Rue mix that I've had sitting in my iTunes since I've first seen the show. Would anyone be interested in a zip? (I'm wondering if I should post it publicly, because the Princess Tutu fandom hardly explores Mytho/Rue, and that makes me sad.)

→ This week has been pretty badass. Hope the weeks to come are just as awesome! Though, I have a feeling I won't have time for ... anything anymore. I'll probably start going to work directly after school, so my entire morning and evenings will be filled these days. I also discovered that I have a lot more classes to take before I even get my associates, sonofabitch I'm so sick of school. :/ But I'll have money to pay for classes now, so I won't burden my parents anymore.

→ Got that DVD of Disney's Pinocchio. I forgot how much I love the music in that movie. Though, now that I'm older ... the Pleasure Island sequence disturbs me a lot more now. The kid turning into the donkey and freaking out never ceases to chill me. (That whale is pretty creepy, too.)

→ Meme time!
