A lot has happened since I last posted an entry.  Kind of.

One: I tried archery.  I was just curious about it (um...from having seen The Avengers, TBH) and it was actually really fun.  Seriously.  I took a beginner's class at this place and I almost got a bull's eye at one point.  I'm thinking of going back, maybe when school is over, and shooting some more arrows, because it's a seriously fun and awesome sport to do.

It's also therapeutic, in a strange way.  Not 'yoga' therapeutic but therapeutic all the same.

Two: I tried tai chi (at the yoga studio I said I signed up to take classes at).  It was very awesome.  And totally not like yoga at all and something that I want to try again.  I was hoping to go this last Saturday but I had a cold and was feeling all crappy (and all I wanted to do was read Avengers graphic novels and X-Men) and I just wasn't up to going to tai chi.  But I'm hoping to go this upcoming Saturday.  (I'm also feeling better.  I think there's a bug going around at school making people have colds and things and I just happened to get it over the weekend.)

Speaking of The Avengers, that movie has probably taken over my life, the same way Inception had.

And Clint/Coulson?  My new favorite pairing.  Seriously.  It's like when I discovered Arthur/Eames and I bookmarked all this fanfiction about them and now I'm bookmarking all the fanfiction regarding Clint/Coulson.

And the funny thing is I don't even know how I got obsessed with them.  I think it was the combination of me reading lots of fanfiction about them and being curious about them that made me fall in love with the ship.

Also, it has sort of inspired me to be creative again--I made a desktop wallpaper last night to honor the awesomeness that is Clint/Coulson. As well as because there was a lack of wallpaper in the world that honored them and I figured why not make my own.

I'm watching Kolchak: The Night Stalker for the first time and it's really good so far.  Unlike Jim Backus whom I only saw as Mr. Thurston Howell III even in Rebel Without a Cause (that film is hard to take seriously when he's in it, despite James Dean also starring in it), I can actually take Darrin McGavin seriously in Kolchak.  He totally owns the role.  (And I don't see him as the father from A Christmas Story.)  I like the whole supernatural/paranormal angle it has.  I like urban fantasy so the show is just totally right up my alley to watch.

Anyway, I just realized I still need to do post #2 of the whole '100 Things I Love' which, you know, I forgot because these past few weeks I've just been busy with life.

Anyway, for post #2 I'm going to change it up and talk about one of my favorite bands.

Which, if anyone doesn't know, is Jethro Tull.

I could probably go on forever as to why Jethro Tull is one of my favorite bands, but I'm just going to list six reasons why.

( 6 reasons why Jethro Tull is my favorite band )

In other news, I have pulled out this old typewriter from the closet.  It used to be my parents', but they stopped using it, and so I was all, 'Hey, I'll take that!' because I like old/antique things (one of my wishes is to have a juke box, but considering how big they are, and how much room I have in my room, which isn't a lot, then I won't get one.  Also, because, you know, they don't seem to be sold a lot in antique stores nowadays.  The only working juke box I know is at this drugstore and soda fountain place near me where they actually filmed this Tom Hanks movie at one time in the past.  And the place actually looks like a '50's diner, like Back to the Future style, with a working juke box and everything.  And malted milk shakes).

Anyway, I found a place for the typewriter to live in my room.  Where it shall always reside and then I'll probably use it when I feel the need to be all 'author-ly'.  Which doesn't happen often because my muse has gone away for the moment, but I'm hoping it'll return around November when I do NaNoWriMo.
