the good, the bad, and the traumatizing

GOOD: Hung out with [livejournal.com profile] efio_47 yesterday, [livejournal.com profile] peachgirldb today. Lovely lovelies, they are some of my absolute favorites. :) and [livejournal.com profile] conspiire tomorrow! We will watch Liverpool play and I will revel in not being surrounded solely by Man Utd fans.

BAD: My parents are intent on being high-strung and pissy and manifesting said high-strung-ness and pissiness by stealing my car. Stop that!

GOOD: Inception fandom teaches us about suits. Damn, that is a gorgeous and informative post.

BAD: My fucking school administrations complete and utter failure at proper communication with its students. Also, its fucking webmail. Can someone more technologically savvy than I tell me if it's still possible to import my Outlook Web Access account to my gmail? Please, god, I hope it's possible.

GOOD: Superanon has kindly let me know of all the fic she has written for inception_kink. And they are all amazing - hilarious and tender and sweet and, well, perfect. ♥

TRAUMATIZING: Donghae in hardcore drag and flashing me thigh and possibly more at SS3 while dancing to Single Ladies. Baby, sweetheart, honeybunch - I adore you but oh my god my eyes.

GOOD: Lots of authors I love are writing for Inception now, including [livejournal.com profile] thehoyden and [livejournal.com profile] mirabellafic! It's fun to see some familiar faces among all the new fantastic Inception authors I've discovered (all mentioned on this previous rec post).

BAD: Kris fucking Allen and Maroon 5 were here in Raleigh last night while I was here adkghf but it was too late to get tickets. And this is after I miss Adam in STL for being here in NC. And, of course, Adam will be in Raleigh when I'm back in STL. FUCK YOU, UNIVERSE, WHY DO YOU HATE ME. :( Can you make it up to me by letting me win the lottery? Or, idk, come up with a big bang plot that I can write 15k for? /weeps forever

Okay, I'm done whining, kids.

Re: trauma

OH MY GOD

I did not need that in my life.

*goes to stare at suit post instead*

WELL I WARNED YOU.

Mmm the suit post is so much better. Super attractive and informative! I like a man in a nice suit.

245 Eastern! But, uh, it's not airing on any channels in the US (check Canada but I sort of doubt it). We'll be streaming - atdhe.net is usually where I go but [livejournal.com profile] ontd_football would have a better idea of other places. :)

ooh that is evidently the case with a lot of countries! even the US has Fox Soccer Channel or something but, ugh, money. Hopefully streams are workable! :D

Here is the ontd_fb post with the matches today and where to find them online: http://community.livejournal.com/ontd_football/2674399.html

OH MY GOD DONGHAE WHY.

Y-yeah. Suit post. Suit post will make everything better.

Re: your webmail/Gmail, do you have a way to fix your password for your webmail account? All gmail needs is the updated one and it will start sending them again. (UNO forces password changes every 90 days and then I find myself going 'HEY WHERE IS MY EMAIL OH WAIT.' -_-

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2010-08-19 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
HEECHUL ALSO DRESSED AS LADY GAGA but that was less traumatizing and more awesome. There was less thigh involved, lol.

that's whatt I thought, but when I try to update it with the new password, gmail keeps telling me that they can't connect to the mail server or something. Ugh, idk. I'll try again, I guess. Technology. :|

[identity profile] transitorial.livejournal.com 2010-08-19 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
Ughhhh so complicated. Sometimes if I'm having problems I just add the account a second time and it works? :/

...the sad thing is this post alerted me to the fact that hey, I just did my semi-yearly password change and gmail hasn't been importing for 5 days now. >.>;;;;

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2010-08-19 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know if it's gmail or my webmail - I think it's the school, because Gmail keeps telling me they can't identify my POP server. :/ Ugh, school, what are you doing??

Re: importing email

I did this. But I'm not sure if it's exactly the same there. You go (in outlook) Options >> Account >> Connected Accounts (second half of the page). lol I hope our outlooks are the same, if not Idk how to help ;~~~;

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2010-08-19 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
I think it's my school's webmail that's the problem, otherwise all these standard procedures should work. UGH. What a pain.

Superanon is amazing! She's written so much, too. Eeee.

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2010-08-19 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
She is and she has! \o/ I wish there were a better way to track what she wrote other than reading a lot and trying to recognize her style and then basically ask and have her confirm, haha. Cannot use LJ tracking on an unidentified anon poster...

[identity profile] pregnantcigar.livejournal.com 2010-08-19 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm... that's tough. I want to know as well! Her goatherding vampire AU had me in stitches XD

Maybe she could be persuaded if you keep asking? :D

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2010-08-19 04:05 am (UTC)(link)
ahah I have asked repeatedly (sometimes without realizing it's her!) but she seems to have her own reasons for not wanting to de-anon, or so she's said on multiple occasions. I don't really have the right to keep pushing, and I am happy so long as she keeps writing! :D And being lovely enough to link me when I moan about my delicious tags not being up to order.

[identity profile] pregnantcigar.livejournal.com 2010-08-19 04:07 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, okay :( She could create a sock, though! But yeah, it's no one's business but hers.

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2010-08-19 01:13 pm (UTC)(link)
NGL I have thought of making a sock and offering it to her...

[identity profile] pregnantcigar.livejournal.com 2010-08-19 01:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Hahahahaha XD well for now I'll stick to stalking your tags :)

MY FUCKING EYES. I COULD HAVE GONE ON FOREVER WITHOUT THAT GIF.

I will revel in not being surrounded solely by Man Utd fans.

bitch, you know you love us. ): i'd gladly give you all the liverpool supporters ynwa-ing up my facebook feed. one guy has actually added 'ngog' to his name, i'm like, dies inside.

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2010-08-19 01:11 pm (UTC)(link)
WELL, YOU KNOW ME, I SHARE THE PAIN.

adgkfj I love you, I do. Related to football, this in ages-old post but it was linked and made me laugh: a fanboy on ontd_fb meets Torres irl (http://community.livejournal.com/ontd_football/1495771.html). Hilarious squealing ensues.

[identity profile] delocalised.livejournal.com 2010-08-19 03:30 pm (UTC)(link)
ilutoo. ♥ even if you are a bloody scouser. ;)

crying laughing at this fanboy, omg. idk why, but the flailing always seems so much more dramatic when it comes from men, bless him. ♥

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2010-08-19 05:31 pm (UTC)(link)
THERE IS ALSO UM LADY HEEHEE: http://coyotecolored.livejournal.com/314423.html

or I could traumatize you less and talk about Tom Hardy? :D who is, y'know, gorgeous (http://fuckyeahtomhardy.tumblr.com/photo/1280/974728089/1/tumblr_l7dgiwsY6G1qanom9) and thoughtful (http://fuckyeahtomhardy.tumblr.com/post/973890614/tom-hardy-interview).

[identity profile] delocalised.livejournal.com 2010-08-19 05:34 pm (UTC)(link)
BUT HEECHUL PULLS IT OFF. HE'S SO PRETTY. WHO ELSE PARTOOK IN THIS MADNESS?

[identity profile] delocalised.livejournal.com 2010-08-19 05:36 pm (UTC)(link)
the only one i'd pay to see in drag is kyuhyun. for uh, personal motives.

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2010-08-19 05:38 pm (UTC)(link)
well, there was kyuyoung from gee!

brb must wash dishes.

[identity profile] delocalised.livejournal.com 2010-08-19 05:39 pm (UTC)(link)
HE WASN'T WEARING A DRESS. ): IT DOESN'T COUNT. he looked pretty in his wig though.

OH MY GOD I WAS TRAUMATIZED BY THAT TOO. DSAJKBLGGDS DONGHAE MY EYES *DIED*

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2010-08-21 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
hahaha well go look at Heechul instead; much less traumatizing. He is just gorgeous.

[identity profile] kusarinokokoro.livejournal.com 2010-08-21 07:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh Lady Heehee is always gorgeous.
