Update on asshat drama...and stuff, involves a *headdesk* moment...

[luvxander]

The asshole has now been dealt with. My mom sat me down today and made me tell her what was going on. It appears my sister-in-law called and squealed that something, she didn't know what, had happened and had me madder and more upset than she'd ever seen me. Anyway, my mom called up there and spoke to the asshat in question and, I'm not sure what all she said to him, but two and a half hours later, she brought me the phone and he apologized. In true CJ fashion, I hung up on him. Without ever saying a word.

ION - Do you guys remember the song that came out waaaay back when, back when I was a wee chillun, called Black Velvet. The singer's name escapes me, but she had this smokey, sexy voice. I remember some kind of controversy surrounding the song, but don't remember what that controversy was.

Anyway, I was coming home tonight, listening to my Lite Mix 99.9, and they played this song. Now, I've loved this song for probably 20 years, not sure of when it came out, but it could have been that long. Am I the only one that didn't know it was all about Elvis? It never ocurred to me, but tonight it clicked. *headdesk* I promised a headdesk moment, I delivered.

IOON - I've only seen 3 episodes of Veronica Mars so far, the last being the 3rd ep of season 1 where they do the memorial fountain for Lilly and everyone's remembering last year's Homecoming. But when I sat down on lunchbreak tonight at work and took up pen and paper to make a to-do list, this thing just came pouring out of me. Duncan/Logan, takes place the day after everyone stayed out all night for the Limo Party. OMG, and last night, this Dean/Sam thing came rushing out after trading comments with darkhavens. For which I will love her forever, for she said something in her final comment on the thread that evoked a mental image that screamed to be written, and writ I did. Neither are completed, but I know exactly what I want to do to them, I even know exactly how to write them, I just don't have the time tonight. Eeek!! Me skeered.

Now I'm going to watch another episode of VM and then get some much needed sleep, as I must be back at work in 9 hours. Night all.


OH, and HUGE KISSES for itsabigrock tonight. Let's all wish her the best and speediest recovery possible. Cause you know, you don't wanna have to be runnin' in slow motion when she's chasin' yo butts down the hotel halls when we get to Writercon. And you know she will. Hell, by then, the crutches (if she's still on them) will be outfitted with heat-and-asshat seeking projectile weaponry. And you do not want her kicking your ass, let me tell you that much.

*smoochies*

Alannah Myles - Black Velvet

I love that song, and I never knew there was some kind of controversy about it, but I can understand -- it's about unwed, young mothers.

Huh, for some reason, I got the impression that it had a lot to do with Elvis. Or maybe that was because we had a lot of customers looking for, reading, buying, or returning Elvis books at work tonight, so that was in the back of my head. Its weird, but then again, if it wasn't weird, it wouldn't have come from my head.

I totally forgot to say thank you. Where are my manners? Oh yeah, in the gutter with the rest of my mind. I got that new movie Lie With Me in the mail today. Lots of shots of totally naked Eric Balfour. *drools*

No worries, sweet. And yeah, it has to do with Elvis too -- listen, it's an awesome song. I love her voice.

Sorry to hear so much crap is going on right now. But yay you for hanging up. You didn't sink to his level but you still managed to say 'fuck you'. Love it.

I really hope you finish both fics, 'cause I'm a total whore for those pairings right now. I have a mini bunny for a Dean/Sam, but I'm gonna download the ep its based on first, so I can get it right. Watching Dean trying to kill Sam should not be inspiration, but somehow...it just kinda is. I worry about my sanity sometimes...

As do we all, honey, as do we all.

Alannah Miles I think is the singer of Black Velevet. The controversey was that she was incredibly sick when she recorded that vocal and her singing voice doesn't actually sound anything like that, so when people went to see her live they were all pissed off and wanted their money back because she was just this very ordinary singer, lol.

And thanks for the prophetic well wishes. Things are going as smoothly as can be imagined, although I am seriously thinking of ditching the crutches and getting an old lady walker because damn, if I have to catch my balance by putting this cast down one more time I'm gonna be pissed.

*heals*

Pissed would not be good. The alcohol wouldn't be productive to the healing process. And the whole thing about not singing as well in concert? Well what's Britagulera's excuse?

*sneaks in and puts wheels, w/brakes, on bottom of cast*

that song is not about elvis.

it is about jensen ackles.

So so so true. We could all use a little of that Black Velvet.
