So I've watched like, two seasons of Buffy in the last week, which is cool, but also is making me miss the outdoors a bit.

Still no word on the no power-book. I should get it back later this week, hopefully by friday or else I'll have to wait until the next week.

In fandom news I'm sort of enjoying watch the HP fandom implode upon itself, in a sad sort of way. I stayed away from the massive crush thread and the hate thread but oh man, some people need to vent more often in smaller amounts, it might help with the anger, and cause less gigantic explosions.

There've been various memes going around including one about fears and phobias. I kind of like it since I am, well, pretty mich afraid of life at this point.

Things that terrify me:

-bugs. all bugs, bugs in real life, bugs on tv, bugs in movies, pictures of bugs. they all scare the crap out of me. Especially spiders.

- Needles and piercings. I get queasy when I see people putting things through their skin. I passes out once giving blood and once getting my second tattoo. And I wear clip on earrings cause I'm terrified of changing out real earrings.

- Closed shower curtains. I don't like not knowing what's ehind it. I just feel extremely uncomfortable in a bathroom if the shower curtain is closed.

What about you guys? Any weird fears or phobias?

Along with watching mass amounts of Buffy I also went and saw Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind last Thursday. I thought it was brilliant. I usually don't like Jim Carrey but I thought he chose a really good part, it certainly wasn't a movie I ever expected for him to star in.

I also saw Secretary for the first time, and my love for Maggie Gyllenhaal has only increased. I thought it was funny, and interesting and a fabulous story. I was also struck by how refreshing it was to see BDSM themes being represented in a way that wasn't classifying it as a bad thing, or an unhealthy thing.

Oh, and bonibaru declared this to be pointless poll day so here's mine:
