thank you, interwebs, for one way or another bringing me the following:

+ jo chen's AMAZING art book! it is gorgeous! absolutely stunning. i'm in love. i couldn't stop beaming at it last night as i flipped through page after page. first of all, the cover is all shiny and metallic (hard to tell from that phone-pic), and then the inside is filled with the myriad covers she's done for various comics. i'm most familiar with her work on the buffy: season 8 comics, but her others are equally as beautiful. the only bummer is that the book is written in chinese (mandarin, presumably), and i don't understand a word. :( but it's really okay, because it's so damn pretty pretty pretty! (you can check out more of her artwork on her site here.)

+ the mail also brought me comics, casanova & ursula, by gabriel ba and fabio moon!

ugh, where is a lazy afternoon when you need one?! until then, they will join the alarming large stack of books by my bed all marked "To Read."

+ DANCE PARTY, USA - the bloominator strikes back! \o/



i love that after all these years, the orlish one can still make me grin from ear to fucking ear. HE'S SUCH A GOOF. my laughing heart eyes, let me show you them. :D apparently, he and the chick hosting the event (i think?) were havng a DANCE OFF. lollll.




+ also of the good, i'm seeing rufus wainwright saturday night! second row seats! \o/ if memory serves, it's been about two years since i last saw him - TOO LONG.

+ and in running news, it's official, i signed up for a half-marathon at the end of april. four months to get my ass in gear. i ran 5 miles after work last night, and it went pretty well, so that's encouraging.

N'awww, Orlando, I still love that you STILL haven't learned how to dance. ♥ You'll always be my favorite spaz.

[koncupiscence.livejournal.com]

[berreh.livejournal.com]

ahaha Dance Party USA. \:D/ He looks like he should be poppin-and-lockin all the way down the center aisle. :D

[koncupiscence.livejournal.com]

check out his feather-adorned pimp hat! BOY'S GOT MOVES. :DDD

<3 HEARTS FOREVER OMG!!!!!!

Love that goofball.

[koncupiscence.livejournal.com]

he truly is the gift that keeps on giving. :D

[morebliss.livejournal.com]

Ahahaha, oh, Orli babes! :D

[koncupiscence.livejournal.com]

oh man, what i wouldn't give to see him in a WALK OFF, zoolander-style. :DDD

[slightlytricky.livejournal.com]

AHAHAHAAHAAH... *wheeze*

gods.


also. i will be sitting next to you in spirit krit my darling. pls to tell Rufus I still heart him like wo.

[koncupiscence.livejournal.com]

i knew there was a reason i'm still hanging on to those ob comms. ;)


i will tell rufus that you will see him next time. ♥ ♥

[gigantic.livejournal.com]

LOL ORLANDO. Amazing.

Ooh, Rufus! Have fun, dude. He continues to be someone I've never seen live that I have wanted to for a long time.

Also, good luck with the half-marathon. That sounds challenging but awesome! \o/

[koncupiscence.livejournal.com]

sometimes the internets are good to us. \o/

oh man, rufus is fantastic live. i get really irritated with people/bands who just go from one song to another without any chatter. i mean, i could just listen to the cd if i wanted that. :( i want stories! and random nonsense! talk to me! and rufus is great with that. a lot of his humor and silliness comes out that isn't necessarily reflected in his music. in short: it adds yet another glorious layer to the dude and ILHIM.

i keep thinking one of these days i will suddenly LOVE running, but no. it's kind of hard and sucky. but somehow i like the challenge! yeah, idk. :p

[yourealwaysmine.livejournal.com]

omgosh. so much happy news. i'm glad you had such a good day.

[koncupiscence.livejournal.com]

orlish makes everything better. much like that boy in your icon.

ps, the little notebook you sent me? last week i said 'screw this, i'm not waiting for mcr tour, i want to use this nowwwww.' and so it is now my new knitting journal to keep track of ongoing projects/patterns/yarn samples/etc! it's the pefect size for that too, and i've already filled up two pages. YAY YAY. ♥

[thejennabides.livejournal.com]

WHAT is that face? This is almost as inspiring as the muskrit face he made all those years, that spawned an empire in my mind.

I didn't know you like Jo Chen! See, you have to come to Y-Con next year. *nods*

Have fun on Saturday! ♥

[koncupiscence.livejournal.com]

IT'S A PRETTY GREAT FACE. and it's so pleasing to see pictures of him having fun and letting loose (rather than the far-too-many teeth-grinding paparazzi photos, grr).

i am relatively new to jo chen's work, but yes, i like her v. v. much! there's this one chapter in her book titled 'doujinshi' (i think that's how it's spelled?), and though i don't know what that word means, i thought i recognized it from LJ. and sure enough, a couple pages in there is a picture of two boys together with their shirts off. :D

it has been quite some time since i've been up north. i will ponder this! ♥

[thejennabides.livejournal.com]

Yep, you spelled it right! It technically refers to amateur-published works, but is often associated with fanworks. There are gen and het (the explicit stuff is called hentai), but most of what people talk about on LJ is boy/boy (yaoi, if it's explicit).

There's your little primer for y-con. *attempts to tempt!* ♥♥

[calvin-would.livejournal.com]

Ahahaha! Goofball Orly lives!!! *hearts him* *hearts you more*

Is it just me, or does that girl have really, really long arms?

[koncupiscence.livejournal.com]

ahahahaha, they do look really long, don't they?

a happy orlando makes me happy! some things will never change. :D

[ruidoso.livejournal.com]

dude. his face in that first pic is AMAZING.

[koncupiscence.livejournal.com]

RIGHT?! i love that he can still deliver the goods after all these years. :D
