I am watching 9.

I am totally shipping 2/5.

I may be more sleep deprived than previously suspected.

Did, uh, did anyone recommend 9 for Yuletide?

Yep.

Your result for The Perception Personality Image Test ...
NFPS - The Guru

Nature, Foreground, Big Picture, and Shape




"You perceive the world with particular attention to nature. You focus on what's in front of you (the foreground) and how that fits into the larger picture. You are also particularly drawn towards the shapes around you. Because of the value you place on nature, you tend to find comfort in more subdued settings and find energy in solitude. You like to deal directly with whatever comes your way without dealing with speculating possibilities or outcomes you can't control. You are in tune with all that is around you and understand your life as part of a larger whole. You prefer a structured environment within which to live and you like things to be predictable."

Blargh. Monday.

It looks like your romantic sector will be somewhat vacant in November. All the better. Take this time to focus on self and sort out your emotions. Reserve time in your day to pleasure read, as this will be necessary food for thought. Spend as much time as possible with friends. They offer you great comfort, and their company is a refuge from the vicissitudes of your frenzied life. With the onslaught of holiday shopping upon us all, be sure to start counting your pennies. You must not overspend this season. Seek creative alternatives for gift giving ideas. If you are superstitious this November might spook you a bit. A spate of coincidences may occur and set you thinking about why? You meet someone new, and they are oddly connected to someone you have known for decades. Then that person you've known forever rings you from Berlin to say they ran into your ex sister-in-law at the airport. After three or four of these flukes, you may begin to think you're haunted. My advice? Follow up on all coincidence. If there are a lot happening at once, it means you are on the right path. That should not make you feel uneasy. On the contrary it's a very positive sign that better things are about to happen in a series.

My romantic sector will be somewhat vacant! :(

... Anybody want to volunteer? (heh. I'm kidding. Kidding!)

Also it appears I've forgotten to watch Dollhouse. Is it worth catching up on?

See, Caro was right: when she goes away, AJ struggles without her. I AM SORRY CARO. I COULD NOT CARRY THEM FOR BOTH OF US. You are just not allowed to go away EVER AGAIN. But! Lookit my boy Alex. When he's hot, he's hot. <3

YANKEES WIN ON IZTURIS ERROR

By Alexander Ferguson

Another gift by the Los Angeles Angels infield gave the New York Yankees a dramatic 4-3 victory on Saturday night at Yankee Stadium and a 2-0 lead in their American League Championship Series match-up.

On a cold and wet Saturday night in New York City, Angels outfielder Maicer Izturis threw the ball past his own first baseman, letting pinch runner Jerry Hairston score the winning run in front an overjoyed home crowd.

The crowd had seen Alex Rodriguez tie the game in the bottom of the 11th with a single home run off Angeles closer Brian Fuentes.

Rodriguez could have won it an inning later, but was unable to convert a two-out, bases loaded chance.

But Hairston said that a bit of destiny was in the air.

"As soon as he tied it, we knew we were going to win this game," Hairston told the US press. "We don't give up. We really don't."

Chone Figgins' hit at the top of the 11th inning had given the Angels a 3-2 lead.

The Yankees earlier had sped out to a 2-0 lead thanks to Robinson Cano's RBI and Derek Jeter's home run, but were pegging back by an awful inning of pitching by starter AJ Burnett, who gave up Erik Aybar's single and then threw a wild pitch to make it 2-2.

Last night I dreamed I was sitting on a bench by the Hudson River talking to thamiris about my love for cherry trees and whether or not Judas Iscariot was a redeemable anti-hero; today I was looking through my hard drive and found an icon that tenebraeli made for me. It made me wistful. I miss you guys. I miss them.

Can we talk for just a second about how adorable my Yankees look all bundled up in their winter gear?

I have nothing more of substance to say except I have a pie in the oven. (That's not a metaphor.) It smells really really good. The kitchen is somewhat covered in flour, and so am I, but no one cares :)

Derek Jeter likes pie. That's part of what makes him so awesome.

Oh, oh, and I am weeks and weeks in remiss about mentioning jmtorres for taking the time to remaster - and by remaster I mean, clip by clip reproduce - one of my old vids for her use at Vividcon. She and her crack team of crackheads (what?) revamped Black Betty, a Witchblade vid I had kind of forgotten I did ... really it was just me fooling around with tempo and cutting, but jules saw something deeper in it and wanted it for her vidshow and I said sure, because, who can say no to her, she is made of awesome :D AWESOME.

I on the other hand, have had my Vividcon DVDs since August and HAVEN'T WATCHED THEM YET. This is the magnitude of my suckiness. Unlike Derek Jeter. Who would have not only watched them right away, but sent feedback to everyone.

My god, I haven't read my friends list in way way too long. Ivy wants to write again?! GET ME A BUS TO TORONTO STAT.

It's time for Yuletide. Do I dare? No, no. No I don't dare. I'll either stress madly about it and then churn out a half-thought piece of drivel I'll hate, or, I'll flake out all togther, neither of which sounds like anything I want to do, so I'm going to sit and watch and occasionally cheer the rest of you on from the sidelines.

I would just like to thank Caro for making my day better with this.

I also rewound the portion from 1:10- 1:13 about 15 times because Caro made me.

Snow is falling outside. WTF SNOW.

These migraines have progressed to almost once a week. I am not amused any more.

I just wrote a whole post about my love for Alex Rodriguez and how it hasn't changed in 5 years through slumps and divorce and his man-crush on - and sometime-rift with - Derek Jeter. And then I deleted it because I don't have to justify or explain it. I love Alex. I want to bake him cookies and make sure he's wearing clean socks. I want him and Derek to be BFFs forever and for him to hit a walk-off HR in the last inning of a World Series to cinch it for the Yanks.

I feel the Posada love, too. He's a classy guy and he never gets enough credit for being a fantastic catched AND a strong hitter too. Woo hoo for Jorge!

Also, on a scale of 1-10, with 1 equal to getting soap in your eyes, and 10 being having someone nearby able to reach that really really itchy spot on your back, how awesome was Jeter tonight?

Jeter was this awesome:

All right, listen, Yankees. I CAN'T TAKE THIS KIND OF STRESS.

For the love of god, someone get Lasix for the umpires. FOR SERIOUS.

ETA: ALL RIGHT TEIXEIRA THAT IS WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT.

P.S. Is A-Rod freaking hot tonight or what? OR WHAT? BOTTOM OF THE 9TH SLAMMED OUT OF THE PARK TO TIE THE GAME! THAT'S MY BOY!!!

Awesome game. That Twins double play just about killed me.
