Meme - 8 Days of Happiness - Day 1

I got tagged by sinnerforhire!

Rules are:

1. Post about something that made you happy today, even if it's just a small thing.
2. Do this every day for eight days.
3. Tag eight of your friends to do the same.

Oh man. H'okay, let me see here.

The Distance Between by lefcadio made me happy today, and I haven't even started reading it yet! :P EDIT: Finished it, and it was fucking AMAZING!! ♥

Episodes 2 and 3 of Torchwood made me happy today. Oh, and crack Arthur/Merlin fanvids--I watched The Bitch Prince, Beverley Hills, that Disney song one, Crazy Little Thing Called Love, and Hey Stephen. YAYZ!! \o/

I was also happy that I figured out a few scenes for the "Life Less Ordinary" vid I'm planning out. I figure for pairings: Arthur/Merlin, Dean/Sam, sasunaru, Roy/Ed, and Riku/Sora DEFINITELY. But I need a few more pairings of people who live extraordinary lives--I'm thinking perhaps Jack/Ianto (haven't really seen the slash there yet, but I'm assuming it's coming), Harry/Draco (don't know if the footage exists that I want), Apollo/Starbuck (DON'T SPOIL THE ENDING FOR ME!! I KEEL YOU), etc. We shall see.

P.S. I'll post for eight days, but they might not be in sequential order, b/c of lack of computer and all. *shrugs*

EDIT: The following warning line on this fic made me happy:

Warnings: Uh, gay sex? Is that warning or encouragement?

*GLEEFUL*

FUCKING ANNOYING

The fucking dl's for Torchwood keep on timing out before they can finish! I FUCKING HATE NOT HAVING THE INTERNET AND TORRENTS AT MY DISPOSAL. It's fucking impossible to get anything during the day, and no way am I staying at college later today. FUCK THAT.

Anyway, so maybe I won't be seeing any more of Torchwood than s01e11, b/c that's what I got up to and the dl's are going slowly today. This is my life, srsly.

I'm also trying to get Being Human, and the rest of what I listed before, but honestly, it's like fucking impossible. Even with the premium passes that I PAID FOR, I still have this timing out bullshit happening. UGH. *headdesk*

Sherlock Holmes movie?

You know how there are times when you realize just how much you miss by not being able to psychically imbed every aspect of every fandom at all times in your brain?

Yeah. This is one of those times.

Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law pplaying Holmes and Watson? CAN I ASK FOR A MORE SLASHABLE COUPLE? No. I cannot.

P.S. I'm excited about X-Men Origins (GAMBIT HOLLA BACK YOUNGIN'!) this Friday, but no one wants to go see Star Trek with me next week. SADLY. :(

P.P.S. OMG, I think I was able to completely donwload ONE part of ONE episode of Torchwood today. Dude, when you pay for stuff like this, you should get better service. *headdesk*

Us by Lim -- download?

If you guys haven't seen this, GO WATCH IT NOW!! Probably one of the best, if not THE BEST, fanvid I've ever seen--at least in terms of meta on fandom and society and how to view things fannishly. I cried while watching this b/c I am an emotional geek who takes this stuff way too seriously.

http://queergeektheory.wordpress.com/2009/02/07/new-media-and-old-institutions-2/#respond - It's imbedded in this entry.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_yxHKgQyGx0 - Found the youtube linky!

So, does anyone have the ability to download this for me, or do any of you guys have a copy of this already?

*puppy dog eyes*

EDIT: Dude. I just re-watched and now I've got chills and I'm seriously tearing up. Holy crap, yo. THIS IS WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT, PEOPLE. THIS IS WHAT FANDOM IS ALL ABOUT. \o/

EPIC. AMAZING. INTER-CONNECTED-NESS. I am shaking from the awesome. Must watch it more before I leave in ten minutes! *panics*
