I'm alive and well, just not online much these days. Family and relatives and old friends and childhood foods are making it haaard to be my anti-social self. I'm sorta reading flist, but I'm definitely behind on vids. I'll try to catch up when I have the good internet!

When I have alone time, I'm watching stuff. I'm now all caught up on BSG (I'd missed some s1 eps before and I just rewatched everything), and my heart, it is about to combust from LOVE. I'm also watching some SGA and Prison Break and they're so much fun and I'm running out and wah - I should've brought more shows with me!

This also means I'll need to get my head back in Angel for the IAVP. I've ripped and clipped most of what I think I'll need before I left, but my mind's been so far from it in the past couple of weeks, I don't even remember any prep. Winging It is the watchword. I think. ::joins in the IVP panic::

I'm hoping to start as soon as I get back in a little over a week. I notice mentions of some changes in IVP plans... I hope I won't miss too many premieres! Who's gonna be first to start? [livejournal.com profile] pipsqueaky and [livejournal.com profile] dualbunny? I'M SO EXCITED.

Btw - [livejournal.com profile] sweetestdrain tells me people liked the icon I'm wearing when she used it the other day. It's up for grabs! I just tweaked the original "Bitch" version that [livejournal.com profile] heres_luck made. Or was it [livejournal.com profile] renenet?

That's all, really. Just thought I'd say hi and HAPPY NEW YEAR! And OH! This time I'll get to the new year TWELVE HOURS EARLIER! Mwahahaha!!

I shall close with puppy pics, because [livejournal.com profile] vagabondage asked, and because we just gave him a bath.





"My name is Marlo and I'm turning 7 months tomorrow!"

I want to mention that I find it totally unnecessary for you to be paranoid or insecure. I finally watched the vid collection you gave me at VVC -- [livejournal.com profile] morgandawn and I watched it together, actually -- and it is *such* a delight. Every vid on there is accomplished, emotionally affecting, technically impressive, and beautiful to look at.

And I can't get "The Frug" out of my head.

So there. :p

Aw, thank you. I'm so glad you both enjoyed the collection! But you know how it is, with the irrational above all ;)

I can't get "The Frug" out of my head.

Hee - now you know why I had to vid it!

::hugs you tight::

Flo!!!!11

Although I love getting to talk to you more when you're anti-social :-P, I'm glad that you're having a good time with the fam, the friends, and Teh Food.

Puppy cute. Icon cute. IAVP panic cute.

Happy-early-New-Year! It ain't 2006 until we get there, though. Catch you later.

Heya!! Good to hear from you. 2006 - Big Year for us. May everything go as smoothly as possible, and may we survive with some of our sanity intact. I am not one of high goals ;)

Dude, did you have to remind me? *crawls under desk and hides there*

I'm headed back North a day early, so I'll be there tomorrow night. I actually have no hopes that my sanity will survive January, forget about June. I'll keep my fingers crossed for yours, though. Can't wait to catch up with you when you get back!

BTW, it's STILL not New Year's on the East Coast - 2 hrs 45 mins to go.

Puppy pics! YAY!!

Good to see you around! I've missed you.

Re: IAVP. Just keep telling yourself, there is no requirement that the vidlets be GOOD, heh. That's the only thing that's kept me sane. And yeah, I hope to post my first one in a couple days. Meep! So far it's been: 2 minutes to place clip on timeline, 45 minutes of searching through user manual trying to figure out how to do something simple, lather rinse repeat.

Hooray for paranoid insecure vidder icons! *grabs like whoa*

A couple of days YAY!! I'm holding your hand, you brave FCP-conquerer, you. And I just know I'll adore every single vidlet of yours.

Hooray for paranoid insecure vidder icons!

It may just be my Official IAVP Icon. Hee.

Happy new year! And awwwww, puppy. All fluffy and clean!

Glad you're having a good time! Although, I too am selfishly looking forward to you being antisocial again. *hugs* Also, your IAVP will be awesome and lovely. You are totally prepared.

(I went to see Pride & Prejudice for the second time today. I think I might be developing a Keira Knightley Austen obsession. Weird. Are you allowed to vid Jane Austen or is that against some cosmic rule, I wonder?)

Dude - this RL thing is freaking me out a little. I'll be me again soon enough :>

I miss you and us.

::channels you:: There's a rule? ;))
