So, it's summer vacation and the children are home... all day, every day.  Husband left yesterday afternoon and will be gone until Thursday.  And, I have lost all ability to create... anything!

I guess that's not entirely true.  But my brain is working in a very unnormal, unnatural way.

Case in point: my offering today is a grouping of Leverage pics.
( Leverage pics )

Also, in typical fashion, a sudden thought came to me and now I am trying my best to write it.  No, it has absolutely nothing to do with my 2 WiPs.  However, it is strangely a Sam at Stanford tale.  'Strangely' because I am a Dean-girl, though I try my best to write the boys equally.  But a fic in which Dean is absent?  That does not sound like me at all.  Maybe I am, in fact, my own (evil) twin - wouldn't that just be typical of my so-called life.

Well, hopefully something will come of the story.  I really need to start writing fic again!

Ed, Farrah, AND MJ.

USA Today quote: The chatty flowers in Alice in Wonderland take their cue from the talkative trees in The Wizard of Oz.

Dear USA Today journalist -
No.  You are wrong.  In nearly every film and TV version of Alice I have seen, there are talking flowers.  And, while the most famous film version of The Wizard of Oz came out in 1939 and the Disney version of Alice in Wonderland in 1951, there were these things called 'books' beforehand.

While I can not speak for The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (as I have not yet read the book), Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There did, in fact, include the garden of talking flowers.  (And, many film and TV versions of the story tend to combine both Alice stories to include the most memorable characters.)

The problem with many people today - including journalists apparently - is that they only look at 'cinematic evidence'.   The Wonderful Wizard of Oz was written in 1900  Alice's Adventures in Wonderland was written in 1885 and Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There was written in 1871.

Therefore, if anyone was 'taking their cue' from someone else, it was L. Frank Baum taking a cue from Lewis Carroll.  In short, do your research and don't diss my man Dodgson.

And now, pictures from the up-coming Burton film:

Happy Birthday weesta !

Yep, once again I am jumping on the meme bandwagon... they're fun!  Sue me!



Rules:

01. Anyone who looks at this entry has to post this meme and their current wallpaper at their LiveJournal.
02. Explain in five sentences why you're using that wallpaper!
03. Don't change your wallpaper before doing this! The point is to see what you had on!

( my wallpaper )The wallpaper is a mosaic of Dr. Horrible pics and quotes. I put it up not long after I watched Dr. Horrible (about 100 times).

Reasons:
1) I made it myself and really liked how it turned out.
2) It includes some of my favorite screencaps of NPH.
3) NPH as Dr. Horrible is incredibly cute and I just want to hug him and make him feel better.
4) He also makes me laugh.
5) I used some of my favorite quotes and they still make me laugh when I see them.

I'm trying to think of a list of "baby" foods. 

So far, I have come up with baby back ribs, baby bella mushrooms, and baby carrots. 

Can anyone else help me think of more "baby" foods?  Please!

Hey folks, it seems my writing muse has decided to head off for vacation early - much to my dismay.  However, I was recently inspired by _doodle 's journal header... actually, I saw a pic I had never seen before and didn't realize that there were 100s of randomly rotating pics there and kept refreshing until I found it again (2 days later!).

Anyway, I was hoping to get a response to a message I sent to her but I haven't heard back.  I just wanted to make sure that it was OK to post some mosaics using some of the pics from the header (that I had seen elsewhere but actually nabbed from her).  But, being in such a slump doesn't help my patience and I cannot sit on the mosaics any longer.

So, I dedicate this post to _doodle and the wonderful, randomly rotating journal header of inspiration!
If you are not OK with this post, just let me know and I will delete it - no hard feelings ;-)
( onward to 40 sizable mosaics )

Does anyone know of a place to get transcripts from Asylum - really, any of the cons?  I have tried to watch videos of the panels to see some of the fun Q&A from Jensen, Jared, etc, but there is always too much background noise for me to be able to actually hear anything - for some reason, I have a lot of trouble separating all of the different sounds and everything just ends up a great big jumble.

Thanks so much!

well, I just created an account with this Dreamwidth everyone's been talking about:

look me up, won't you

Happy Birthday griseldajane  !

If you have not seen not_refined 's icon called "Baby Watch Your Back" (bottom of userpics), I suggest you check it out.  We had an interesting conversation about it on my last post and I couldn't stop thinking about possible fic.

And, this is what happened.  I can't take full credit - I only Supernaturalized an old Monty Python sketch...

I'm sure you are thinking, Wait! That PicSpam had a couple shots of our boys, but they were never the focus!
Have no fear, here is the second half of the picspam - all dedicated to our beautiful boys...
( part 2 of picspammy goodness )

As my muse has yet to return (leaving me with 2 unfinished fics!), I have busied myself with other pursuits... namely, picspammy posters in the motivational/demotivational style.  I ended up with 42 (what a magic number) posters.  Hope you like'em.

OK, I know the rules said 48 hours, and I know that it has only been 1 day, but I think I am a little too obscure for my f-list.  So, as I am not sure if I will be around tomorrow, I figured I would go ahead and give you the answers to the 'Guess the Song & Artist' meme...



( the answers )

*Edit: apparently these are a lot harder than I intended.  So, here are a few hints...


How to play:
-Pick ten songs
-Of those ten, select a single lyric from each one and post it (the more obscure the better)
-Have your friends guess the song titles and artists for each one.
-You can strikethrough the ones that have been guessed correctly
-Don't forget to give credit to your f-list for guessing an being awesome
-Whoever gets the most right wins a fic or any piece of writing from the poster
-Guessing closes after 48 hours, at which point all answers must be provided
-Absolutely no cheating. *waggles finger ominously*
-Good luck!

( ...on to the lyrics )

Happy birthday lasvegas_lights  !

Has anyone seen the book covers from the Winchester gospels anywhere?  I would love to get those classic looking book jacket pics!
