Friday afternoon, megasnerfy

Oh God, so sick. Nonetheless, I am going out to dinner tonight ("Moe's? With the salsa bar? At least I'll be able to taste that") and then out to see Spider-Man III, which I've heard is kind of a hot mess, so at least my expectations are adjusted accordingly. Also, that makes my job easier. Note: It's one of the key movies for the second book, which I haven't pitched yet, so it's technically not guaranteed to exist, so: worst comes to worst, it'll be posted online. If it's a sequel or the first movie in a series, and it's a really big one, odds are you won't be seeing it online. Something that's totally cracktastic but, like the cheese, stands alone? That might have a chance. And I say "might," because--and I think a lot of people don't realize this--I'm limited by what magically works for me at that moment. If I've run out of funny, as I did for much of 2006 (!), it doesn't matter how perfect the movie is. It kind of has to come together in the moment, which is why I had something of a nervous breakdown trying to write the book. It's also why I want The Golden Compass in the book, because that gives me a guaranteed time frame in which the book cannot be finished. Surely I'll be able to pull something out of my ass by December? Surely?

Wow, that was a mighty tangent. Anyway: a small--but excellent--smattering of linkspam from my gigantic backlog:
