It's astounding...

cmpriest has discussed the spontaneous achievement of puberty by girls of a certain age on first seeing Labyrinth. The girls of Coilhouse discuss the "kinda funny" feeling that comes over girls (and boys) of a certain age upon first viewing Legend. I've experienced both of those. But nothing tops the sensation I felt when I first saw Rocky Horror. Specifically, the moment when Riff first opens the door. Richard O'Brien has been my epitome of hotness ever since.

That has been your window into my psyche for the week.

Also, my call-backs are embarrassingly rusty.

Slowly but surely, or something...

Quirks: Nodding, nodding, always with the nodding! It's guillotine time!
Jury-rigging: Leading up to the big quarter/third twisty escalatey bit, and I still have no fucking clue what that is.

Non-writing-related activities (AKA a life): That 400 pounds of top soil? Not enough. Yeah. I'm probably close to 600 pounds of dirt, compost, and peat moss in that damn hole, and it could still use a little more. But I'm planting the berries tomorrow anyway. And they better be some charming motherfucking blackberries.
