Stressy Anna is stressed

And because of this, I’m going to try to post about assorted Things That Don’t Suck.

This past weekend: Street Fair. Got to go with solarbird, and I got a new hat, and Dara bought several cute things to wear, and Tasty Food was eaten as well. Got to see mamishka as well as assorted other folks I know from online and the local filking crowd, vixyish and gfish and hsifyppah and tereshkova2001.

Also this past weekend: Starting to watch Season 2 of Life on Mars. This show is made entirely of Awesome, and I am sad that there are only two seasons of it, because next time I see the Master on the Doctor he totally will be DI Tyler instead. And that’ll be just plain weird.

Yesterday: Lots of new music purchased, including Carbon Leaf’s shiny brand new album, Nothing Rhymes With Woman. More thoughts on this will be forthcoming. Also, as a special side note to seimaisin, I must note I’ve also picked up Gaelic Storm’s second and third albums, and lo, there is Awesomeness. I am particularly amused that GS covers a song I was originally introduced to by Heather Alexander: “South Australia”. Seriously, though–GS clearly got their shit together as of album #2, because their vocals are a lot stronger, and I’m finding both the second and third albums actively groovy.

And oh yes: it totally fails to suck that I found an lj user tag parser for Wordpress, so even though I’m doing a lot of crossposting out of Wordpress these days, I can still do lj style tags. Because it totally messes me up when I can’t!

More later. I need sleep!

wow. i really can't think of anything that *actually* rhymes with woman; the inflection throws it all off...

I still find it hilarious that Sam got the last name Tyler because one of the writers asked his daughter what a good name for a time-traveler would be, and that's what she came up with. It was only later he found out she'd been thinking of Rose Tyler.... ;)

Makes the whole Master thing at least three times funnier.

[annathepiper]

It is, indeed, an awesome thing!

Now you have me wondering if at the end of season 2, Sam's going to come out of his coma and regenerate! ;>

[annathepiper]

It's a tough one, ain't it? :) The closest I can come is "comin'", and that's not even a proper rhyme since you're dropping the g and the vowels aren't an exact match.

[annathepiper]

Well, I was more thinking of actual things I have had or gotten lately that don't suck. ;) I am not currently in possession of pie!

[maellenkleth]

alas, my powers do not extend to teleporting pie (whether bubbly meat pie or tangy key-lime pie) across the border. Customs rules, y'know.

Best wishes for things that do not suck, in amplitude and sufficiency. *^_^*

oh, she was a talented wooman,
and her writing biz'ness was boomin'.....

"cumen"?

lol

[annathepiper]

Hee, but that's the same principle: close but no cigar. I can't even think of words that give us assonant vowels!

Thanks! :)
