Feeling Better
Dec. 8th, 2009 10:48 pmA little, anyway -- that sore throat's finally gone away. Now if only the stuffy nose would do the same.
-TD: I could make you up some nasal spray.-
Uh, no thanks. I dislike the idea of sticking anything up my nose, honestly.
-HD: Personally, I think you need something for that cough that appears to be developing. *tries to foist tea on me*-
It's nothing much!
-D: Yes, but I think it's going to be a day or two before you're truly better.-
Blah. Well, at least this one's not paired with my period or anything. And I should be all over all of it by Christmas and my birthday.
-VD2: Something to look forward to.-
Indeed.
Not much to report for today -- read the Wikipedia article about Action Park, which had to be the unsafest amusement park around. Just take a look at their signature water slide and tell me that's not dangerous.
-VD: Great Scott -- is that a loop-de-loop?!-
Yeah, basically. And this is your average water slide -- how the hell people were supposed to go down it and not break a leg when you hit the loop is beyond me.
-RPD: *shakes head* Negligent designers.-
I'd say cut them a little slack, they built one of the very first water parks in this country -- but seriously, a LOOP-DE-LOOP?
I also worked a little more on my Christmas fic, and did more with the Advent Tree. Almost missed out, though -- looks like LJ's comment notification woes have hit me. (Let's see if they arrive tomorrow. I say it's fifty-fifty.)
And there was also much Linkara goodness. More Frank Miller Batman weirdness -- gotta love it. But what really got me was this episode --
Had a shout-out to YAHTZEE! Of Zero Punctuation! :D Linkara actually apes his style in the middle of the review! I feel this is awesome, mostly because Yahtzee's another one of my favorite critics. Damn, if only we could get him, the Angry Video Game Nerd, and the Nostalgia Critic in a room together and give 'em something they could all rip on. *puts that with the idea of getting Mike and Joel for a riffing (seriously, they kind of squandered that opportunity when Joel visited at the beginning of Season 10)*
Actually, this is making me want to watch some Zero Punctuation. *goes off to find a good one*
