1. So one of the many fannish things I've been kind of working on recently is VIDDING. Learning to vid. Whatever. There is one specific vid I'm trying to work on right now because I have a pretty decent idea and know which clips I'd use and roughly where and so on... but it is the ONE THING I cannot find a song for. I was listening to Talking Heads' "Memories Can't Wait" and the sound of it is perfect but the lyrics are all wrong! I could always just switch back to the Dirty Harry vid idea, but I kind of like the idea of my first vid being something people other than me might watch.

2. SLAB-SERIF FONTS. OH MY FUCKING GOD IT TAKES SO MUCH WILLPOWER FOR ME TO NOT JUST BUY THEM ALL. Right now I'm making do with free ones and whatever others I already have because, like, do I REALLY need a zillion special perfect slab-serif fonts for my photoshop hobby? NO. I DO NOT. (At least not until I start using slab-serifs in things I make.) Logic says this. Unfortunately, my feelings say I really want these things:

ITC Charter
Farao
Maxime (god, I want to write papers in this soooo badly. they'd be so sleek!)
CLERKENWELL LIGHT (I would buy this one if I had the money... it looks so sexy, omg)
Consort Condensed (I may end up buying this one because it looks so western yet funkalicious yet plain, and I am having more and more difficulty resisting it)
Bodoni Egyptian
Corporate E
Corzinair (reminds me a bit of Fontin in terms of attitude)
Clarendon Text
Beton BQ

I feel like I'll probably end up breaking down and buying either Maxime or Consort Condensed with some of my birthday money even though I mean to save it to spend on something cool. BUT WHATEVER, FONTS ARE COOL.

3. I had a three. I think maybe I lost it. (ETA: Upon contemplation, #3 probably had to do with Narnia fic. You're better off without reading it, I imagine.)

4. While writing this post/browsing font sites, I listened to two Talking Heads albums in search of a song like "Memories Can't Wait" but more appropriate lyrics. And DAMN. I am not really all that into Little Creatures at all, and in my itunes the poor album is sandwiched between Fear of Music and More Songs About Buildings and Food which are my faves. The poor thing really gets no love there.

5. Last night I made fanart for some of musesfool's SPN girl!Sam AU fics. You can find it here at iconzero or see it at her journal!
