Posting after midnight = questionable brain function. Proceed with caution.
1. Disturbing realization: My Name Is Earl is kind of, uh, joining the likes of The Office & That 70's Show where I can see episodes multiple times and still adore them. I don't know what happened to me. But this is, bizarrely, like the most endearing thing ever (with a healthy dose of hilarity, and trashiness in a fun way). It warms my soul! SOMEONE TALK ABOUT THIS SHOW SO I FEEL LESS ALONE. Does it even have a fandom? It doesn't, does it. But I love iiiiiiiiiit. *whines*
2. Speaking of That 70's Show, how has no one told me about Season 8 Redo (with bonus end-of-season-7 redo), a/k/a, the most wonderful fanfic experience you will ever have? *basks* Sure, it appears to have been abandoned at some point and never actually given a proper conclusion, but it's still like 40 bonus episodes. You can just pretend it got randomly canceled, because that would still be better than the Fez/Jackie ending.
3. In other news, you might remember me mentioning that I have banned myself from the library until I get a job. This is not technically a ban on reading, but since I have so very little gumption to read books I actually own, the end result is the same. My frustration manifested itself in a) annotating my 2007-2008 reading list, so I could at least think about books, and b) a poll about my favorite juvenile literature. Outsourced as usual, because you people are not sufficiently click-happy when I post here, but you should go participate because it is jolly.
[Although I continue to feel mopey about how many early Newberry Award Winners/honorable mentions have faded into obscurity (51 people have voted. You know how many have read My Father's Dragon, Calico Bush or my beloved Gone-Away Lake? NONE. Sounder? Hitty, Her First Hundred Years? ONE.) And for real, if you have never read Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle, get thee to a library STAT because you can't even imagine how much you are missing out. She's admittedly pulling 33% at the moment, but that is still less than half, and way less than the 90% I'm pretty sure it should be.]
P.S. I am watching a Bernie Mac rerun right now, and besides a random Ellen DeGeneres appearance, you know who is guest-starring as Vanessa's hot cheerleader friend? SANTANA FROM GLEE. See, it was destiny.
