Today at a store C and I saw a "Make Your Own-opoly".

I said, "Oh cool we could do a mixture of all our fandoms"

And she said, because she already has 5 versions of monopoly, I'm not kidding, "Or you could make your own QAF-opoly. Brian's Loft could be Board Walk."

After that a long discussion followed.

A couple of my favorite suggestions include:

Britin would be Board Walk.
The Loft would be Park Place.

The 4 Railroads would be Babylon, Woody's, The Liberty Diner and The Baths.

The first two cheapy places I suggested as Justin's apt circa season 5, and Ethan's Apt. But then C threw in that one should be the alley/street Hunter lived in. And I thought the other should be Justin's Black Bag. Because sadly, that was sort of his home.

We both agreed Jail could be the Taylor House.

Any other thoughts? We had ideas for many other abodes..The Girls' House, Deb's, Michael and Ben's, Ted's condo, Michael and Emmett's apt, Kinnetic. Etc.

I'd love to hear what you would do with the QaF world in Monopoly.

Ok. Srsly.

ACK~!!! I have just briefly peaked into the challenge at qaf_scavenger and there is SO MUCH graphicy goodness I don't know what to upload first!

OMG I MISSED THE INTERNETS AND ALL OF YOU!!!

I've been tv and internetless for a week. IT'S BEEN HORRIBLE. And then my phone went out on me too. So I didn't even have internet access there. *sobs* But it did give me some time to do things I should do. I like move into our new house!!

Currently it's a disaster of boxes and half unpacked boxes spewing their contents in all directions. As soon as it's not I shall post pics.

The Uverse man was here today installing everything. Which means C did not get a chance to sleep (she works nights) which means I can't wake her up and ask her why our pretty new TV apparently has no sound. I've tried everything. Pretty HD picture, but no words coming out of it.

And I can't ask her why the internets are SO SLOW. But at least I have them. WOOOHOOO~!!!!!!

I'm sure I have missed out on tons. And unpacking will leave me little time to catch up...but I'm going to try.

BECAUSE OMG I HAVE MISSED YOU MY FLIST!!!!!!

Tomorrow. Work, doctor's appoint, final walk through, pet store, pick up prescription i forgot to get today, pack
Tuesday. 10am CLOSING (panic attack included) go to home depot and get paint, paint 1 bathroom and 1 bedroom, move some shit, pack.
Wednesday. Finish painting, Move lots of shit, please god finish packing.
Thursday. I have to work. C will be moving the furniture and hopefully everything else. At this point we will have no internet. Or TV.

I don't know how long it will be before we get the internets up and running. We haven't been able to schedule an appointment to install the internets or teevee because the people currently in the house haven't cancelled service yet. dammit.

So in other words. I'm going to be flipping busier than all get out the next week, and by thursday won't have internets. So I don't know how much i'll be around, or when I'll be back.

But I will be eventually. Logging on from my new home. God willing.

Love ya!

If I had known what fandom was when i watched it. Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Angel would undoubtedly have been my first fandom. My love for both those shows is boundless.

But...( the rest under a cut to spare those who can't stand BTVS )

Go sign up for the 2009 Holiday Gift Exchange at qaf_giftxchnge.

I just did :D And my muses like moved argentina or something, so if i can...

I really wanted to request a Glee/QaF crossover, but I resisted the urge.

I'm sick. My throat is KILLING me. I can't be sick. I have to finish packing. And move. And sign my life away in the next week. No time to be sick. :(

Joss Whedon is going to direct an episode of Glee this season!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It feels like christmas. I might cry with joy.

That is all.

The love of the ladies of QaF that is.

I put up a post in qaf_coffeeclub about The Women of QaF and Why We Love Them, and it would really rock my world if went and played there a bit today. We all tend to focus on the men of QaF, specifically B/J, but they aren't the only reasons I love that show. So go, leave a comment with a favorite scene, a favorite mom, a favorite icon. Anything you want, as long as it's about the ladies of QaF and why you love them.

Please. It would make me oh so happy. I have lots of packing and errands to do today, but i'll be popping in and out, and hope some of you will come and play too.

I have several guilty pleasures. One of them I mentioned last night -The Vampire Diaries.

Another one is Kelly Clarkson. Yep. I'm admitting it. She is having a concert here next week and I decided I wanted to go, so I set out to find someone to go with me since C didn't have much interest. Who did I find? My parents. Yep. That's right. My guilty pleasure is so exceptionally lame that the only people I share it with are my 60 something parents. So next week the 3 of us shall be going to the concert together. Hee.

*hangs head in shame*

I'm totally addicted to The Vampire Diaries.

It's so wrong.

I just wanted to mention in passing, that if you use lots of those little moving sidebars on your journal, I probably won't be looking under your cuts, or commenting on your posts much. It's not personal, it's just that every time I try to go to someone's journal who has more than a couple of those sidebars, my computer freezes, sometimes for minutes at a time. And it drives me nuts. I love them too, those little pictures, they are are so cool. But too many of them, not so cool for those of us who don't have super fast internets.

And qafmaniac I LOVE the leaving on a jet plane vid. but everytime i tried to tell you so, my computer froze up.

I feel like I couldn't possibly fit anything else into my life right now and it's driving me a bit batty. But there is a light at the end of my tunnel. And it's called November.

The AIDS Walk is tomorrow, so I won't have to spend anymore time trying to raise money for that. My sister, C and I have raised over $700 btw, go us!

My tastefully simple party ends tomorrow, so I can stop thinking about that.

We got our final loan approval, and everything on our end relating to the house is done until closing.

Except for packing. Which I have until October 27th to finish doing.

By November 1st, we will be moved in. No more apartments. No more parties. No more fundraisers. Nothing to do but unpack. And I have minimumly 3 years to do that.

OMG I can't wait.

And the first thing I want to do? Restart Marathons! I think I'm somewhere in early season 4. I don't know if anyone will still be around to play with me. But who cares. I miss watching episodes and thinking about them. I've always been capable of squeeing alone. And if others join me. WOOT! As for writing. That I'm not going to pressure myself on. Either it comes back or not. I think I might have some more icons in me though. I made a really bad one the other day. It was terrible, but I had fun making it and that's what counts.

And general squeeing. I want to make more time for that. Random QaF squeeing has always made happy.

So I'm not quite back in the mix yet. But I promise you all will be seeing a lot more of come November :D

You know what you can find on Hulu? Every episode of Dollhouse that has ever aired.

You need to be watching this show. It isn't going to hook you in the first episode. It's going to hook you and hook you good by episode 7. And then you will understand why I'm effing BEGGING you to start watching this show.

There is so much fucking crap on TV. But this isn't. It's Joss Whedon for fucks sake, you really think the series is going to totally suck.

I know some of the first 6 episodes aren't the best ever. Well, it wasn't until episode 6 that fox stopped fucking with the show and let Mr. Whedon do what he wanted. After that, OH MY SO GOOD.

And season 2 is shaping up excellently. But this show still need to find a solid audience. And it's time slot isn't helping. Neither is a serious lack of publicity.

Please don't pick up season 1 and a partial season 2 somewhere down the line and then lament the fact that there is no more to watch. Start watching now.

New episodes air on Friday nights on Fox.

Why don't they make snuggly plush robes for plus sized women in anything but solid colors? :(

Thousands of cute designs out there, but not for plus sized ladies. Makes me sad. We like cute robes too you know.

Attention QaF Fandom

There is a very important event that happens every Holiday season. And I expect all of you talented artists and authors to participate. It will bring joy to someone else, joy to yourself, and joy to fandom. What could be wrong with that??

It's the 2009 QAF Gift Exchange. And it's one of the coolest things that happens in fandom.

You can read Read the Rules and ask questions here.

And you can Sign Up here.

Sign-ups close Oct 25th. Entries will be due Dec. 22nd. And ohfreckle always works very hard on this project to get you your assignment(s) as quickly as possible after sign-ups close, so you should have plenty of time to complete your entry.

PS. All this happens at qaf_giftxchnge. If you haven't joined there yet, you really should. All the entries from past exchanges can be found there, and some are really brilliant.

This was IMPOSSIBLE. The icons below represent less than 1% of the ones I have saved in userpics. To make it a bit easier I limited myself to QaF. And I didn't choose any of my own. Because as vain as it is to say, some of my favorites are my own. :X But it felt wrong to be like "Check out this icon I made, isn't it awesome!" lol.

So here they are. I'm sorry I couldn't put one from every icon maker in here cause you all have made some brilliant ones, but 10 is just too few, yo.

( Icons this way )
