Pictures, plans, fandom fail and OH GLEE EUROSONG SOON

[misscam]

CSI fandom, I award thee a grand FAIL for fandom drama, grudging, shit-stirring and spreading false idiocy. You may collect your raised finger at your earliest convenience.

Focus your energy on writing porn literary masterpieces instead, hmm?

Meanwhile, I have tomorrow and Friday off; and then it's weekend, so hurrah four days off in a row! In that context I thought I'd do a meme I'd see go around the flist about - Ask me to take a picture of any aspect of my life that you're interested in or curious about - it can be anything from the house I live in to my favorite book. Leave your choice here as a comment, and I will post the pictures as a later entry when I have a chance to do so. Feel free to make your requests as mundane or creative as you like. Naughty requests shall be ignored, and I'm just taking one picture request per person, or my camera would go boom.

Grand plans for my four days off and chances of sucess:

- Wash, vacuum and otherwise clean parts of the house. I estimate 54% chance of sucess, given the availability of distractions.

- Watch Eurosong semi and finale. 99.9% chance of sucess, given that only death will stop me.

- Write "Stuff (or How to Shag a Time Lord in Six Simple Steps)" cos I owe nostalgia_lj so. 42% chance of sucess in finishing, might be heightened with kicking and WoW server downtime.

- Get epic crossbow from Karazhan. About 10% chance of sucess, given droprate on boss.

- Start my ficathon entry for Rose and Martha. 10% chance of sucess given other fanfic ideas and distractions eating my brain.

- Sleep in. 100% chance of sucess. Hurrah!

Finally, to get you all in Eurovision warm-up mode, some choice lyrics can be found here.

To sample:
Oh, don't call me funny bunny
I'll blow your money, money
I'll get you to my bad ass spinning for you.

Gotta tease you nasty guy
So take it don't be shy
Put your cherry on my cake
And taste my cherry pie.

This is going to be a glorious year.

I seriously love Eurovision for the snappy comebacks my sister entertains me with each and every year :)

Umm picture of your favourite place to sit and think.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

It's not Eurosong without snark from friends, family or commentators, I think.

[katiegsr.livejournal.com]

most defiantely not and you always have to have popcorn to throw at the telly :) and a vaccum cleaner on standby!

[falena]

Long weekends rule!

Um, do you know if there's a way to watch Eurovision live online, for us deprived souls? If not, I guess youtube will be my friend.

I love this meme! I want to see a pic of your house (and garden/yard, if you have one).

[falena]

I forgot...

*kicks you really hard to increases chances of you writing Martha/Doctor pr0n for the Nos*

Come on, look at my icon! You know you want to write it!:P

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Ow!

Yes, but I also want to write a million other things and play WoW and watch Silk Stalkings on DVD (deliver faster, Amazon!) and listen to football and sleep and and and and.

My brain is a constant battlefield of wants.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

BBC streams it, I think. I know I've watched it that way at least one year.

No one should be deprived of Eurosong.

[aelie-baby.livejournal.com]

Do you know if they have a list of what channels will be showing it?? I can't find anything and I won't have netz to stream it! *panic*

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Um. Well, it's usually the public broadcasters who show it. Like BBC or NRK. They have to be EBU members, so... Look at the list and see if there's any channels you get? Or try a google search, maybe.

[aelie-baby.livejournal.com]

No semi-finals, but France3'll be showing the finals! Hot damn!

[misscam.livejournal.com]

The finale is the best part anyway.

[aelie-baby.livejournal.com]

wicked! I'm thinking of inviting all my American friends over to discover the joys of Eurovision. Oh, I'm so excited!! :D

[misscam.livejournal.com]

And also Eurovision.tv streams it for all to see.

Another sample:

Ven hacia mí
Descubre el amor

Ven hacia mí
Siente mi pasión

Tú ven hacia mí
Como el escorpión
Que endulza con su herida

(Come to me
Discover the love

Come to me
Feel the passion

You come to me
Like the scorpion
That sweetens with its wound...)

That's the Spanish song, for the record. I'm rooting for Andorra, anyway, since they're the only contestants allowed to sing in Catalan (and their song doesn't sound like Eurovision at all).

[misscam.livejournal.com]

There better be some skittering across stage with those lyrics. Also HAHAHAHA.

I don't know who I am rooting for yet. Probably one of the underdogs. Definitely not Spain.

Take a photo of your computer area at home. :)

*pokes you loveingly*

[lotus79.livejournal.com]

*kicks you and presents posterior to be kicked in return*

Pic: Your bed, complete with a sleeping Ishmael. Other accessories optional. ;) (Or if you don't feel comfortable posting a pic of your bed, then make it the view from your bedroom window. Bonus points if you get kitty in the shot.)

[boz4pm.livejournal.com]

I apologise unreservedly in advance for the British entry. Heck, even Bucks Fizz say it's shit. *lol*

[wintergreen126.livejournal.com]

(could you post a picture of the remote controlled tardis? please? (insert batting eyelashes here)

i know little about eurovision. except for something about a mask-wearing finish (i think) band that was in it last year. but enjoy all the same :o)

[ashiya.livejournal.com]

Did the CSI fandom wank somewhere again? *blinks*

Pictures...oh! Can I have a picture of the Norwegian skyline?

[crackpig.livejournal.com]

Naughty requests shall be ignored,

...bugger.

[chicklet73.livejournal.com]

I'd love to see a photo of something beautiful or striking that you pass on your way to work.

[sinneahtes.livejournal.com]

Photo: the view out your favorite window?

[cutting-rm-flr.livejournal.com]

A picture of your closet. :)
