It seems like things are really shitty for people right now. Let me just take a second to give you all a big, virtual hug - *HUG*

Things are quite shitty in my neck of the woods as well, and I'll admit that I've been sort of wallowing in self pity lately. There are a lot of worries with work (as in, I don't know how much longer I'll be working there), I have less money in my account than I've had since I started working (the holidays will do that), stress at home, and just your basic depression. I don't know. I'm still mostly enjoying things, but I don't feel like I have enough energy to share my joy/love. Hell, lately I haven't even been talking much IRL. A happy spacemonkeyluvn is one who doesn't/won't shut up, and I've barely been talking to friends or anybody.

Things that are happy-making:

* I got my first Christmas card yesterday. Thank you, arathesane!!

* ( Another pictures of the Toma/Pi hug, and from a different angle. Toma just looks so happy. )

* This picture taken by Dave Brown (aka Bollo) - 'Lazy lights. Genius'

* NSFW yet still somehow adorable Boondock Saints Q&A in which Norm gets teased for never talking, Sean is a dork and takes pictures of the crowd to show his mother, and they call Billy Connolly but get his voicemail. Oh, and I really want to know if the donut story is true or not.

* Community, especially the tags at the end of the episodes. Abed&Troy are too adorkable for words.

* Adam Lambert's 'For Your Entertainment'

* This Mighty Boosh photoshoot, though I wish they didn't have watermarks :(

* These boys: Kevin looks like a normal boy, Joe looks special (and why that hair cut?), and Nick looks a little possessed there. Bless.



There's probably more but I'm too cold, tired, and meh to think any more. Time for a shower, sleep, and then the dreaded work day. *le sigh*

I promise I'll stop posting about The Boondock Saints soon, but I was feeling really crappy. Until I found this.

The Brothers Bloom was a great movie, but made me depressed. Pandorum was creepy and sort of reminded me of The Descent in space. Make the Yuletide Gay was a charming little movie that made me cry, but at least in a good way. But ever since I went and saw The Boondock Saints: All Saints Day, I can't get it out of my head.

It finally opened in the theatre by my house, but the only show is at 9pm. So one day after work, I asked my mom if she was willing to take me. She sort of agreed, but in the time between when we got home and when the movie was going to start, she had gotten angry and had fallen asleep. But I needed to see this movie. So at 8:30, I had to take the bus (it was freakin cold and dark), and by the time the movie got out, buses had stopped running so I had to take a taxi home. Worth it though.

Anyway, long story short, I'm reobsessed with the MacManus brothers.



But how about some links, eh?

If the Earth had rings - Holy crap, this is beautiful. And makes me slightly sad we don't actually have rings :( I'd love to watch them seem to grow/shrink as you flew across the world.

Preview for the next episode of Community. Okay, now I can't decide who I love more: Abed or Troy. I guess it's a good thing they come as a pair.

The trailer is up for St. Trinian's 2: The Legend of Fritton's Gold - LOL at Colin Firth for 'beauty' and "Some women are born great, like the Queen. Some become great, like Lady Gaga."

NEVER MIND THE BUZZCOCKS - Doctor Who special!!

And that's all I can remember right now. Work is getting crazy (thanks a lot, holidays) and I really need to start my Christmas shopping. I'll also be starting on my cards soon, so let me know IF YOU WANT A CHRISTMAS CARD FROM ME ;D

You know what? I think I'll end with this
