…otherwise known as “Erin Does the Sunshine Blogger Award” again. 😛
Thank you, Rosey!
…so why do I need to post the button twice???
WHATEVER. 
All right. Fourteen facts about me. Here we goooo!
1. I forgot what I was going to put in this space.
2. I play multiple instruments–guitar, piano, harmonica, pentatonic flute, recorder
3. I am very firmly on Cap’s side of the Civil War for various reasons.
4. Sometimes when two characters are played by the same actor my sanity does a backflip and tries to merge the two. Even when the two have practically nothing in common except for an eyebrow raise and occasionally identical elocution. Why this happens, I have no clue and I normally try to ignore it because it doesn’t help with anything at all ever.
THE ORIGINAL SONIC SUNGLASSES.
5. It is my firm belief that the Doctor ran into Lieutenant Bush at some point prior to his eighth incarnation and the “note to self” in this case was that a war was pretty much inevitable at this point… Oh no. That started out okay but I lost it halfway through. Sorry. I’ll shut up about Doctor Who now.
6. I completely misplaced all my other nominations for all other blog awards. If you’ve nominated me in the past please remind me… I should at least try to catch up.
7. I wish I could draw and play music better than I can. I’m already a perfect cook, designer, and seamstress.
8. Ongoing learning process… going on.
9. There comes a point in college when you’re done with your general education classes and your university and college requirements. When that point arrives, they pretty much throw you in the deep end and walk away laughing. HAZING IS NOT DEAD. It survives at a bureaucratic level. Also, I am at that point in my life.
10. SWEET HEAVENS A GORGEOUS FEMALE CARDINAL JUST LANDED IN THE YEW OUTSIDE MY WINDOW!!! Who’s a lovely, gorgeous, incomparable bird? That’s right you are!
11. Fact #10 just made my day.
12. Don’t skip Nine. Falcon is one of my favorite superheroes. “I do everything he does, just slower”. But the thing is, he doesn’t just follow Cap’s lead. He takes the initiative. I wish they’d do a spin-off just about Sam Wilson and his time working with Riley. Does he have a girlfriend? What are his family reunions like? Does Cap just talk to random people in the park all the time?
14. One of these facts is actually a lie.
15. Who says that there has to be just fourteen facts?!
Hopefully you enjoyed reading this. 😉 I hope I saved enough facts to do all the other awards accumulating in my attic…
I really don’t. (This is still my favorite gif ever.)
I nominate… well, Iris, but she probably won’t do it, my other fellow superheroes Courtney, Sarah, and Rosalie (who also probably won’t do it), Bessie because she just started college and might understand the deep end thing, and the Professor, just because.
Thanks for reading, and God Bless!
You’re right. I won’t.
Called it!
I have major spats to deal with in the Temple, and an avatar to get off the drawing board and into grown-up-working-character life.
Ay ay ay. i have people I have to get off the drawing board too… I’m trying to redraw an avatar (it was Eight in a frilly hat, because reasons and the Eighth Doctor is the a precious terrifying lovely child. Also, Eight can be scary like Ten can, but he’s quieter and when he threatens people he does it in this soft menacing tone which is absolutely terrifying. And then he shouts and his voice gets all deep and makes you jump out of your chair. And if Obi-Wan’s voice is golden, Eight’s is velvet. I never want to see Paul McGann playing a villain because his heroes are frightening enough.)
I kind of want to go find an audio clip of that now… quiet scary people are the best.
oohhhh, yes, eight is the best at that… I will send you links to the next audio clip I find… I don’t know though, you might like the Big Finish Doctor Who audios better than you liked the series (they continued the movie when they didn’t get a chance at a revival series until 2005…. um, I feel like I should elaborate. The Eighth Doctor’s one on-screen appearance was in an abysmally camp movie in 1996. It was even more cheesy than anything else in classic Doctor Who, and that pretty much scuttled its chances of sparking a revival TV series. They finally started up again in 2005 with the Ninth Doctor–Christopher Eccleston–but in between, they made a bunch of audio dramas featuring various Doctors, including Eight, who, in my opinion, is at his best in the audios–he runs the gamut from charming, sweet and adorable to cunning, dangerous, and sort of sinister. I haven’t gotten that far in but apparently there are dramas which are SERIOUSLY creepy and have lots of psychological stuff, which is kind of scary how good he is at that. They also draw a picture of someone who cares deeply and feels like he cares too much at times–he’s terrified by how much he cares about people. Eight sometimes wears his hearts on his sleeve but he’s also got a dark side similar to Ten’s which makes you really believe he’s got this sociopath side… Ten wasn’t nearly as vulnerable as Eight is. Eight is probably, of all the Doctors, the most human and yet he’s also completely alien. Eight is the one who doesn’t really try as much to hide himself, but he can tear you down with words like pretty much no other Doctor I’ve seen yet. Not even Ten. There’s actually a scene in one book–yes, there’s books too, but those are really inconsistent–which really corresponds to Ten’s line “But then I got worse. I got clever–manipulated people into taking their own [lives].” Eight is the theater critic who doesn’t care if he shows what he feels but can be cutting and cold as well–the Doctor has that same quality that he tends to make or break (no in-between) the people around him.
Um… okay.
*trying not to rant but failing*
congrats!
Thank you 🙂
you are welcome!
🙂
Sorry, you didn’t have to do that twice… that was just me being clever because I got tagged twice by two different people. 😛 It was fun anyway. We wouldn’t have gotten to that lovely fact #10 if you didn’t. 😉
Love the gifs too. Can’t beat Bush with sunglasses. XD and the casual musket-tossing.
I have something that has me rather worried. #14 says one of the facts is a lie. What if it was #14 that was the lie? But that means that it’s true, so…
Yeah, whatever. I like messing with logic like that. XP
Haha. X-P
YES THE LIAR’S PARADOX X-D But no, the lie is number 15. ***SPOILER*** There are only 14 facts–I skipped number 13! X-P ***END SPOILER***
Ah ha. XD You clever person, you. I wasn’t paying attention to the numbers. You had a distracting little dalek gif below it. 😛
Ooh, there’s a scene in Ant-Man you’ll like. Sam Wilson is awesome.XD
BWAHAHAHAHA. X-P
YES SAM WILSON IS AWESOME!
Yeah, Falcon’s appearance in Ant-Man is really fun. Especially because Scott thinks he’s awesome too. XD
WOO HOO SAM HAS CANON FANBOYS! YES! Just like Coulson and Cap! X-D
HE TOTALLY DOES! XD And really, Scott is adorable geeking out about him. Sam is totally cool with it and doesn’t change expression, though. XP
AWESOMESAUCE! X-D
It’s pretty awesome. XD
:-3
I’m pretty sure I nominated you for the 777 Writing Challenge back at the end of September, but you might’ve done that already. Can’t remember.
Also: cardinals are lovely. And I’m sorry about college. *hands you hot chocolate, ’cause you need it*
ohhhh… Right. I’ll have to find what I’m working on right now, though, ’cause I can’t remember what i was supposed to be working on in September. (It was probably that AU for Rosalie, though.)
