Went to watch a movie on Sunday with my sister and one of her friends. I'll have a proper review of it later (probably tomorrow as I'm so beyond behind on posting my resolution reviews, it isn't funny). I'm still on track for finishing the 50 books/50 movies this year even with working assloads of hours.
Anyway, when we came home, I watched Newsies. This is such my guilty pleasure movie. The acting isn't all that grand, the singing is rather poor and the choreography basically only consists on boys groping boys, boys bumping chests with other boys, boys leaping over other boys writhing on the ground with other boys, and boys rolling around on tables with other boys. Though, there is the occasional crotch thrust at the camera to break up the monotony. I feel rather guilty watching it now as I was wondering exactly how the sister would feel when she realised that Davey and Jack were totally fucking one another when they were out "striking". They're still boys in the movie even if I would totes love to see David Moscow and Christian Bale snogging as adults.
Went to jury duty. Got picked. Went to lunch. Came back. Was booted. There is, obviously, more details but... the case had to do with child pornography and swinging and open sexuality in front of children and walking around your house naked and... and lots of stuff. So, I'm rather glad that I got booted.
Have been working and bitching about hours at Fry's to everyone. I have third most seniority and yet? I have the least amount of hours. Every single new person has at least 3 shifts more than me. This pisses me off. Thus, meeting with the manager tomorrow. What she doesn't know is that I've already talked to the store manager about the situation and if I don't instantly get more hours, she'll be having a talking to.
So, um, I'm sure you've noticed that it's, err, Thursday and no update on Memories as a Teacup. There's a good reason for it. Really, there is. It's just that...well... I, um, I've lost my thumbdrive. The one with the story on it? Yeah, that thumbdrive. I've been looking all over for it and I cannot find it at all. Thankfully,
nefernat has a copy of the beta'd version and will be sending it to me tomorrow. Also,
elanorofcastile has seen the additions thus I have everything. Just not in one organised place. So I'm not SOL but I am late. You may now being hurling salmonella-poisoned tomatoes at me. I suck and I apologise. I'm cleaning my room only to find the damnable thumbdrive.

and I haven't watched newsies in like 10 years but hearing you talk about it means i totally need to re watch it!
work is ebil!

I suppose it's for the best that you're out of the lineup for that particular duty--seems unpleasant to say the least. :(
Good luck on getting more shifts.

Christian Bale is very hot.

Urgh. Thats a crazy kind of jury duty. Think it trumps mine. But yeah, I can imagine that really messing with your head.

Oh, wow, that's a case. Much better to be booted, yes.
Good luck with the work crap and finding your thumbdrive! D:

Oh I love Newsies. I got a copy of the movie in about '94 or '95. And I so totally shipped Jack/Davey. I love your description of it. *g*
I love the songs, they make me happy. I've not been able to find the soundtrack though. *pouts*
Christian Bale is gorgeous!

Glad you found your thumb drive!

Dude. Newsies. It's like Blockbuster's movie sending thingy is totally allowing me to relive every happy moment of my childhood.
work is definitely ebil. I took photos of my desk and omg, skeery.
no subject
It was definitely going to be unpleasant as there were photos and all sorts of nasty videos and stuff. I really would rather NOT watch that sort of thing. *sticks to her boy kissing*
I did get one more shift. I did my best professional bitching ever. If I didn't have assloads of things coming up that I need that money for, I wouldn't be so mad. But my car's idle is really rough, I have a wicked shimmy at 75 mph, Terminus, a friend's wedding, a paintjob for my car and all sorts of stuffs... *worries over funding*

He really is. He's smoking hot.

Newsies is BRILLIANT, isn't it? It's just askldjfa;sdj.
I talk about random movies from my childhood all the time. I have that blockbuster online thingy and I have so many of those movies in my queue. It's like a little gift every time I get a movie in the mail.

The fact that we would've had to watch videos and see photos was the worst. I really did not want to see that smarmy dickweed naked.

And omg your icon. omgomgomg *FLAILS* I want one of my own :D.
Definitely a good thing to have been booted from. I'm wicked amounts of busy at work anyway so it works out for the best for all involved.
Thumbdrive really needs to come home. You think if I promise it a name that it'll come home?
no subject
I really want a copy of Santa Fe.
He really is yummy, isn't he? He has a very beautiful wife, too. *le sad*
no subject
OMG. Christian Bale really WOULD have been the most brilliantest Sirius ever. *flails*
Jack. Oh Jack.
I haven't found the thumbdrive yet, unfortunately :(. But I still have a smidge of hope. A very small smidge.

*hug* I thought you were either too busy to reply or thought "thanks but no thanks". You're just quite brilliant and I know you can kick much ass with your clever idea.

It's more that I'm still absorbing some of it and going YES on the recommendations and trying to think out how I want to use it. I get fixated on stuff and if i talk about specifics, I lose what I'm trying to do. So, no specifics but I'm totes using them :D.
