July Challenge-An Answer

Here's my first entry. I wasn't really in an editing mood, though I did re-read it. Apologies for misspellings/ect, though there should be none.

AHAHAHAHAHAHA OH DEAR GOD

Oh God. I know you guys mostly skim anything I post starting with "Gl" or "Ma," but TRUST ME YOU WANT TO READ THIS. I have been sitting here for several minutes just sort of staring at it. Occasionally, people say really creepy things about Markéta Irglová, but never before have I come across such a masterpiece as this.
Marketa Irglova, self-effacing Dragon slayer.

Glen Hansard mentioned in an interview some time after their performance in Seattle, that he and Marketa had some unexpected visitors backstage to meet them: Bill & Melinda Gates and family. One wonders what the Gates’ beheld in Hansard & Irglova that would have prompted them to use a perquisite of power to get a closer look. In another interview, Hansard revealed that he and Marketa had been invited by Al Gore to join him for dinner. Again, one wonders what motivated Al to reach out to invite these aspiring young musicians for dinner. Surely, such occurrences are not common. I suspect, with all due respect to Hansard’s talents, that Bill Gates and Al Gore were as secretly smitten as the thousands of other men and women who beheld Ms. Irglova’s acting and ethereal singing debut in ONCE. Why? Because in an age of endless parading of prurient films pandering to the masses’ baser drives, one cannot help be taken by the stark contrast of decency and virtue this valiant young woman portrays. She’s intelligent, personal, helpful, courteous, generous, constructive, industrious — and modestly dressed neck to toe throughout the entire film. Not only is there no sex, there’s zero exposure. Moreover, when asked in the film by Guy to “stay the night,” Girl demurs politely despite a fleeting tug of temptation, and then becomes justifiably indignant at Guy’s crass persistence. Here art seems to portend real life. For there is a YouTube interview showing a shy Marketa, occasionally flashing her Princess Diana smile, suddenly blanching and lurching forward at Glen Hansard’s mere insinuation that he might have kissed her privately. Gracious! In a time of crass celebrity pudenda photos and shameless announcements of who is illicitly pregnant by whom, could we find such a real virtuous young woman as this?! Perhaps there ought to be a market research poll taken of those who beheld Ms. Irglova’s moving performance in ONCE. I suspect the magnitude of those slain by the sights and sounds of this lovely ingénue were far greater than realized. The audiences were not simply watching and hearing the moving performance of just another young woman, they were witnessing the birth of a dragon slaying star.
I think I need someone to come here and hold my hand. Or can we at least sit down and talk about htis?

Mammoth is a funny word.

While I'm kind of offended (kay, really offended at the portrayal of René), I couldn't help but laugh. Mainly at the end.

OH MY GODDDDDD

OHMYGOD. LOOK AT HER GO. She looks like she's having SO MUCH FUN. And she's so incredibly sexy and beautiful. Imagine being those two guys!!!! OH MY GOD.

Céline Dion (& Jeremy & Mathieu) - Dans Un Autre Monde - Live @ Star Academy January 2008

Seriously. It's like some magical compound of beauty, sexy, enthusiasm, talent, intelligence, compassion, humility, honesty, and grace all morphed into the magnificent creature that is Céline Dion.

as if the roosters weren't bad enough

The Independent has an article today on Marina Guinness (yes, of those Irish Guinnesses). She has a house in County Kildare, which is the farm where Glen and Mar live. It's got a recording studio, and Marina has become this incredible patron of the arts - just letting musicians live there to make records or hang out. Most of what I think of as the Grafton St crowd (Glen, Damien Rice, Lisa Hannigan, Rónán Ó Snodaigh, and the rest of Kíla) have either lived or recorded at the Guinness house. It's a lovely article, mostly focusing on Marina's connections with Kíla, but here is my favorite part:
With all this creative energy pulsing about the place, Marina took up the violin.

"But oh God, I was so bad that Marketa came down one morning, looking green in the face, telling me she had heard a ghost wail in the night. And I said: 'That was just me practising the fiddle!'"

It's Not So: Book XXXIV

Title: It's Not So
Pairing: House/Cam...maybe
Rating: T
Disclaimer: Yeahno, I don't own House M.D.
Summary: House wakes from a coma to find a Head Honcho Foreman, Secretive Wilson, Same Cuddy, Single Surgeon Chase, and a Pregnant Cameron. Only problem is, he doesn't remember the months leading up to the coma.
A/N: Ah, yes, the House coma bit has been done before, right? I have taken some liberties with the coma aspect of the story since, well...this is fanfic world, so please forgive me and try to go along with it. This story is also very slow to progress, so patience is truly a virtue. Memories are in italics.

Open the door.

A new writing community

I recently made a writing community called The Pencil Posse. The Pencil Posse is where authors can go to get help, get feedback, and get encouragement to update/finish stories. The Posse also includes writing prompts, challenges, activities, and much more. It is welcome to all fandoms, including Original fic (poetry is allowed as well).

Right now though most of the members are Harry Potter fans and I'd like to get some other fandoms in there.

the calendar hung itself

THE CALENDAR HUNG ITSELF - Bright Eyes

Does he kiss your eyelids in the morning when you start to raise your head?
And does he sing to you incessantly from the space between your bed and wall?
Does he walk around all day at school with his feet inside your shoes?
Looking down every few steps to pretend he walks with you.
Oh, does he know that place below your neck that is your favorite to be touched
and does he cry through broken sentences like I love you far too much?

Does he lay awake listening to your breath?
Worried you smoke too many cigarettes.
Is he coughing now on a bathroom floor?
For every speck of tile there's a thousand more
you won't ever see but most hold inside yourself eternally

Well, I drug your ghost across the country and we plotted out my death.
In every city, memories would whisper: "Here is where you rest."
I was determined in Chicago but I dug my teeth into my knees
and I settled for a telephone and sang into your machine.
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine

And I kissed a girl with a broken jaw that her father gave to her.
She had eyes bright enough to burn me. They reminded me of yours.
And in a story told she was a little girl in a red-rouge, sun-bruised field
and there were rows of ripe tomatoes where a secret was concealed.
And it rose like thunder, clapped under our hands.
And it stretched for centuries to a diary entry's end where I wrote,
You make me happy oh!! when skies are gray
You make me happy oh!! when skies are gray and gray and gray.

Well the clock's heart it hangs inside its open chest with hands
stretched towards the calendar hanging itself
but I will not weep for those dying days.
For all the ones who've left there's a few that stayed.
And they found me here and pulled me from the grass where I was laid.
