Bored - slightly...

Snagged from [livejournal.com profile] evil_trisha

Five bands I dislike even though everyone else pees their pants over them.

1. Tokio Hotel.. I’m still uncertain if they even count as human!
2. Xavier Naidoo… He was okay-ish, before he got enlightened and the whole Christian brainwash started to show up in his songs!
3. Every marketing boyband ever known to mankind!
4. Every marketing girlband ever known to mankind!
5. Superstar-Mania – please can we go back to TV being about famous people and not trying to make them famous? I know it’s cheaper the other way around… But still… *bangs head against hard surface*

Five fruits and vegetables that freak me out

1. Nuts – I don’t care about you and your various shapes - at all! Stop trying to sneak up at me in my ice!
2. Kiwi – Bad memories!
3. Grapefruit – too bitter for my taste buds!
4. Zucchini – ugh!
5. Gooseberry *shudder*

Five songs I sing along to and I don't care if it makes me uncool

1. Böhse Onkelz – Oh, shut up!
2. Lady Marmelade – On the top off my lungs and with no shame attached…
3. Cher – The Shoop Shoop Song
4. Bonnie Tyler – Total Eclipse of the Heart
5. Christina Aguilera – Come on over

Five obessions I've had in my life that I haven't talked much about

1. Italian food – Seriously? Pasta, pizza and the sweets? Mmmhhh… To die for!
2. Robin of Sherwood – Does anyone remember the 80ies BBC series? Oh, well – I loved it to pieces and him with all the devotion my six year old heart could muster up. I even liked the blond Robin later on… *sigh*
3. Underwear – It should be a bit harder to rationalize over 200 Euros for a corsage, but I did it without batting an eye or second thought! At least I don’t like shopping shoes -
4. Fats Domino and Sam Cook – My moms favourite and mine too. Hell, I even have a soft spot for Elvis and my grandmom fangirling over him…
5. Die Hard Trilogy – One of the first DVDs I bought and I still love watching them…

Five pets that I've had

1. Turtle – too small to remember much, but we had one…
2. Rabbit – same as the turtle, don’t remember the two of them…
3. Budgerigar – several… I think five or six!
4. Hamster – also I was too small to remember much!
5. Cats – My parents finally settled on the long term pets to avoid more death trauma…

Five TV shows I will never watch, no matter how much everyone else squees

1. Wonderfalls – Never came around to watch and probably won’t ever!
2. Doctor Who – Saw two eps and it didn’t leave an impression…
3. CSI and various spin-offs – Never cared about this particular brand of series… Same as:
4. StarGate – I don’t know why I have a problem with military kind of Sci-Fi – I just dislike them! Which leads to:
5. Battlestar Galactica

My five favorite rides at Disneyland

Another thing I thankfully avoided in my life… But I love rollercoasters and anything that spins fast...

Five bad habits I have

1. Introverted – I don’t like talking about me and my problems – Seriously I hate this touchy-feeling bullshit to an allergic degree if I’m the sudden centre of emotional attention.
2. Cynical – I’m better now, but before I reached twenty I had this ‘Burn, Burn, Burn!’-routine down that made everybody else look like a fool, just for my own amusement.
3. Cold – If you’re not on my ‘Love’-List you most certainly feel something like the Titanic after it collide with the iceberg – sinking and rebuffed – if you ever dare to try to warm me up to you and your personality.
4. Indifferent – I know where I stand in my life, I have my pride and my outlooks, so if you try to tell me what to do? What to think? How to live? You better prepare yourself for a black void of nothing and if you annoy me enough? I smash your thought-construct like a black hole.
5. Shopping – But that’s genetic, you could give me 1.000 Euros and I would have no problems giving it out in one afternoon. Hell, you could give me 100.000 and it still wouldn’t be a problem.


Five memories that will always bring me out of a funk

1. The night Denis showed me his wheel traces behind the gas station and kissed me for the first time – also the funny part were the first person we ran into afterwards was his stalking ex.
2. The first time I got drunk –
3. The times I broke a guy’s heart – I never claimed to be a nice girl.
4. The decision to get two cats. And a third. And then sadly once again a third.
5. Abi-Abschlussfahrt – Prague and thousand good memories…

In other news – Denis moved back in and I’m two thirds done with my new Supernatural vid, that’s driving me either up the wall or into foetal position on the floor – God, I’m gonna be so happy once I’m done with this nightmare!

I’m feeling positive about the whole thing, seriously there was stuff in the last years building up, mostly routine and daily annoyance, that felt like shackles as time moved on. But it’s wonderful to have this shit out of the way and say things like, ‘Move your dirty socks from the fucking floor and into the laundry, my love, otherwise they won’t get clean! Ever!’

Wheeee Supernatural. All your pain will be worth it when it's finished. ;)

I sure hope so, but yesterday felt like a break for me, I finally got around how emotionally structured I want the vid. So the build up for the last two thirds is done, the rest is polishing and I think I’m coming to terms with the fact that not every Impala shot I want to get in, will make it…

On a complete random note: I’M IN LOVE WITH ‘sinchronicity’ – That’s the show I’ve been waiting for years and never dreamed up – The - best friend - madly in love with the – girlfriend – of his – best mate – who is discovering his gay side with a– sexy doctor – and maybe in season two will have a yearning for his – best friend – concept is making me insanely giddy. It’s the right blend of every genre I like in comedy, I’m truly blown away from the first two eps – I think they are even better than the first two of ‘Queer as Folk’ more fleshed out and real! ME LOVES BRITISH TV!!!

Domestic, daily routine shit is the bane of long term relationships. I could get forgiven for being unfaithful but if I try and dodge my turn doing the dishes all hell breaks lose.

I can't wait for this vid. The Impala deserves it's moment in the spotlight. Hurry up and finish polishing already! lol

I haven't caught sinchronicity yet. I've seen the promos but just haven't checked it out. It does look like the kind of thing Brit TV does well so I'll probably catch the inevitable reruns. I'm currently getting my British gay tv fix elsewhere. Namely the second season of Sugar Rush which is so much better than the first and reminds me of my misspent and much missed youth!

That’s too true… It’s kinda funny, if you hear people talk about their wonderful, adoarbale, lovely significant other and you have the nagging voice in the back of your mind saying, “Oh wait, till you move together! That will be fun!”

I’m a bad girl. I didn’t work a single frame the whole weekend, too busy writing mindless smut… *hides face*

Sugar Rush sounds interesting now, I try to check it out and you should try to catch sinchronicity elsewhere, namely the internet… It’s real good!

*pokes* Have you worked on the vid today? The smut must wait!

t’s kinda funny, if you hear people talk about their wonderful, adoarbale, lovely significant other and you have the nagging voice in the back of your mind saying, “Oh wait, till you move together! That will be fun!”

I agree!

I managed to watch 1 ep of sinchronicity so far, I'm loving it. I'll have to keep up with it now.

No, I haven’t and I will do a little work later - after I finish proof-reading and posting the first chapter. C’mon smut never can wait, especially if you’re normally unable to focus to the hotness instead of pure angst.

And YAY for sinchronicity – I really hoped you would love it, it’s too cool to not squee with another person about it!
