Here's something I've had open since yesterday evening and can't manage to close: Matthew Kristall's new editorial for Contributing Editor, "Getting Away." The full collection of photos is viewable on the CE website and features Kyle Saunders and Roy Pratt like this --







Yeah. Just thought you should know, in case you missed it.

In other news, this shoot is from the spring, but I feel I should also mention that I would definitely read a story where Cole Mohr and Ash Stymest were 50s greasers, who, I don't know, fooled around in the backseat of that car in this last picture. I'd be into that. Like. Considerably.

Happy Weekend, all!

I hope everyone has had an opportunity to enjoy themselves this holiday season even for a moment. I know everybody has their own opinions about this time of year, but regardless of whether you celebrate one religion or another or none at all, I like that it's a season of good intentions, which doesn't mean that everything will go perfectly, but there are a lot more people actively hoping that maybe, you know, things will be a little more awesome for a while. I've been hanging out with my family, all of us continuing to talk the same old nonsense we always do. I am never more entertained than when me and my siblings get together and riff off one another for a variety of ridic shenanigans.

I've also spent a silly amount of time on the internet, as per usual, catching up on all kinds of television. Vacation is for rarely leaving the couch! :D!

Here's a list of random things that have been entertaining me the last few days:

- My Yuletide story! First of all, if you've never watched the show Modern Family, you should check it out. Secondly, after you see it, you might want to talk a look at Phil V. Technology, which is a great short that rings very true to the show in style and humor. I love it! Thank you, Yuletide writer!

- Beyonce and Jay-Z to change/hyphenate their names. They're still my favorite celebrity couple! UGH. SO CUTE. There is totally also Yuletide fic about them, too, and I am STOKED to read it.

- The magical tale of Zac Efron the wood nymph:



Okay, that picture is old, and also he's not in the woods actually, but like! Wouldn't he make a good nymph? Or, really, maybe he should just commune with animals. You're killing me, Zefron!

- Homotography. So many beautiful people in provocative photos, I don't know what to do with myself.

- Sherlock Holmes. Motherfucking Robert Downey, Jr. He continues to delight me on film, and I'm not quite as into Jude Law as I was, idk, back when it was more viable to be into Jude Law or something, but I loved watching them play off one another. Rachel McAdams was great too.

- Best Dress. Boys! In dresses and skirts!

- Thinking about Kelly Osbourne's fiancee (??) Luke Worrall making out with Cole Mohr, because I think it would be pretty. (Can you tell yet that I've spent a lot of time looking at pictures of models the last week or so? Okay, great. Seriously, where is that fashion model fandom? I want in.)

Now I think I'm going to play Band Hero and suck at the drums. Catch you guys later!

Hey guys, I was wondering if some of you could help me out. I'm putting together five poems to submit to the Allegheny Review and there's a cash prize involved. They don't have any examples of their work up on their website so it's hard for me to judge what to submit. I was wondering if anyone would be willing to look over the ~7 poems I have so far and tell me which five are the best? If so plz leave your emails. Thanks so very much :)

So I set up a formspring.me account, you should all ask me your ~burning~ questions so I can feel important!

I only made 20 bucks last night AND I have a zit on my chin. FUUUUUUUUUUUU

I tended bar yesterday for a Kent law school party. god so many fucking douchebags. drunk people are so fucking stupid. tonight I waitress till 5 am, I get to endure wasted assholes touching and hitting on me. just take your drink, tip me, and move the fuck along argh. at least I make that money... last night I made 200 bucks, split between me, two other bartenders, and the busboys. not too bad, I'd say.

Now that the semester has wound down, I've been able to watch the end of Greek, Season 2 and am plunging into season 3. Here are a few random hit points thoughts mostly about finale shenanigans and the first two episodes of the new season.

( Greek )

In conclusion: the 'y' on my laptop is sticking all of a sudden, and I hate it. At least it's making me more creative, in my attempts not to have use the letter as little as possible.

edit: Oh, wait, I forgot to do the usual and flail about pictures of The Beef. Be. Cuter. Goddamn.

edit 2: Also if you have a basic/plus LJ and want one of those $10 coupons, let me know!

Alright, now I'm done.

So I just removed a fuck ton of people from my friend's list. It was mostly inactive journals or journals of people I didn't know. If you want to be readded or think I deleted you by accident, just let me know and I'll readd you. I promise it's nothing personal.

my cold is so much worse today. I just want to cuddle in my blanket and sleep but I have to clean the entire house. fuuuuck my life.

Dexter season finale was EPIC.
