Welcome to Corinth City

I don't think he's funny, and I don't like his movies. But I'm watching Night at the Museum for the T-Rex skeleton, because you really can't go wrong with a living T-Rex skeleton that plays fetch. Also, the mummy is kind of incredibly hot. And Teddy Roosevelt made me tear up for a minute there.

...if I really think there should be some Perry White/Jimmy Olson fic out there?

I discovered the "Kripke Started It" Changing Channels meme on LJ. Someone did Power Rangers. 'Nuff said.

May you live long and porn prosper! :D

...is that if you pretend you think women are people, and sometimes toss them flowers or a love song, the stupid bitches'll buy it and not murder you in the night like you probably deserve.

Which is to say, I finally circumvented the bad menu on Hercules and the Amazon Women, aka, "Hercules Teaches an Entire Village to be Nice Guys™" and watched it. I knew it was bad, but OH MAN had I forgotten how bad. Not even Iolaus dying in Herc's arms (spoiler: he gets better) or Lucy Lawless as not!Xena, or a village of scantily clad Amazons dancing erotically before their sex raid on the men's village can really make up for just how awful this is. (Okay, possibly that last bit is part of how awful this is, but I am allowed to be shallow.)

Due to a tragic ordering fail at work, my cats are eating Friskies until at least Monday. They inform me this is not what they signed up for. But at least they won't eat me in my sleep.

The Pahrump-A-Pum-Pum Festival was absolutely dead. I was there for four hours freezing my ass off in the booth (shared by the store and two friends of Boss #1), and I was never, ever so glad to go back to the store as I was this afternoon. Tomorrow they're predicting rain; I hope I don't have to go back. *cries*

Last night I dreamed that Peter Pan knocked up Wendy and they had twins.

Peter gave Wendy a fruit, and when she went to eat it, Tink magically goosed her, so that she swallowed it whole and came up pregnant with twins. (This happens surprisingly often in fairy tales.) And we know it was the fruit because the twins (one boy, one girl, named Nut and Berry) had skin the yellow-orange color of the fruit's flesh (yes, they were literally peach colored) and green hair and eyes like the fruit's skin. Oh, and also they were born in seed pods, which, you know, ouch.

And since part of my dream was a dream, and part of it was me reading the book, I woke up with passages like, "The twins grew quickly, so that in perhaps a year - or a bit more, or a bit less, for time is hard to reckon in Neverland - they were old enough to join the Lost Boys. And Berry ran as fast and laughed as loud and flew as high as any of the others, for Wendy had been quite unable to make a proper young lady of her (Wendy privately blamed Peter's influence)."

Then later the twins accidentally left Neverland (which was apparently in a giant beehive, IDEK), and as they grew up and lost their innocence and outgrew their clothes I suspect there would have been twincest, but I woke up before then.

Oddly, the whole dream was of the Disney style characters, even though Disney's Peter Pan is by far my least favorite (I prefer the character designs from Fox's Peter Pan and the Pirates, where Peter actually looks like a little boy).

Someone should totally write this for me, of course.

I now own a Philips MP3/video player*. So, does anyone know how I can get my various AVI files (and DVDs) into SMV format so I can take them places with me? Preferably a free way?

*And a pair of boots that are too narrow in the heel, so I'll have to return them. :(

Having something you would love to coerce someone into writing for you, and not being able to foist it off on anyone because it features one of your own Sues. Yes, that is how far my writing mojo has fled, guys; even my own characters can't entice me anymore. Thank GODS I have crappy 80s television to watch.
