What is this, an update? XD

Yep, I'm dusting off the livejournal/dreamwidth crossposter! I was watching Pushing Daisies on Netflix when I realized, Kol, you haven't updated LJ since before Sage moved in, and that was ages ago. What is the deal?! Get on this already! So here I am, wondering about how everyone has been and cursing myself for losing contact with so many awesome people.

So what are you guys up to these days?

My attentions lately have been on:

• Farmville on facebook. What the hell you guys, this shit is ADDICTING, stay away if you value your brains! This game has actually kept me in touch with a few co-workers who left the company and allowed me to coo at my two flamingoes for hours. My avatar is actually an RP character from a long dead game, Momo from Lost Senshi. But I can't lie, I farm because of the flamingoes and winery XD
  
• Kingdom's Long December Campaign. Mind you, we haven't technically started it yet, but this campaign consumes my Kingdom thoughts... that is, when they aren't on Sage's COMPLETELY ADORABLE Pokemon AU. I have a bad habit of shouting "POKEMON!" at Sage these days, actually. Our house is the geekiest house! (Also, guys, I'm still amazed about Kingdom Con! 8 of us managed to travel to Las Vegas and have some of the best times ever. WE WERE SEXY LADIES. )
• Top Chef and Project Runway. My brain is wired for food and fashion these days, which is good since I'm getting back on the Operation: Healthy Kol bandwagon! I'm not sure how long the PR is going to last, though, since I utterly loathe 80% of the contestants this cycle.
• Nanowrimo 2010! I can't believe this is going to be my 8th Nanowrimo. I'm so old you guys ;___;. I'm going to write a YA Space Martial Adventure, with an escaped slave and a neo-regency rake finding themselves in a war. With space ships and robots and manners! I have no idea you guys, but this is the first time since 2007's Nano that the prep work has been so fun!
• Super secret project with Sage! I cannot say more, except I THINK IT IS GOING TO BE AWESOME AND I HOPE PEOPLE WILL BE AS EXCITED AS I AM :DDDD
• Anime and Manga! FMA consumed the early portion of the year, and right now I'm marathoning Baccano and Skip Beat! I'm pondering a re-watch of the entire Sailormoon anime, too. Bleach continues to alternate between HELL YEAH and WHAT THE HELL THAT IS STUPID and WHERE IS CHAD, SEXY SEXY CHAD MAKES EVERYTHING BETTER. Samurai Champoo and Darker Than Black are next on my queue.
• Operation: Healthy Kol! As mentioned above, I'm getting back on the healthy wagon, which means a return to exercising, food budgeting, and vitamins. I'm determined to defeat my fatigue and get my relentless creative energies back! I'm hoping to drop 10-15 pounds by the end of the year. This should be a piece of cake! Wait, not the right phrase to use there... XD

So what's going on with you guys?

HURRAH KOL UPDATE <333 I haven't posted much either lately. Here is what is up with me!

* No Farmville addiction, but very slight addiction to Sorority Life. XD

* OUR HOUSE IS THE GEEKIEST HOUSE EAST COAST EDITION.

* PR: I'm really not that crazy about most of the contestants either, but Angie and I both feel it's because the producers want us to hate them all. In an interview with Peach after she left, she said there is a LOT more going on behind the scenes than we see on camera, and all but said the show this season is being edited for maximum bullshit drama. It's like, look, I know it's a "reality" show, but COME THE FUCK ON.

* Nano: I'll be working on the calendar art again this year! <3

* NOW I AM DYING TO KNOW WHAT SUPER SECRET PROJECT IS.

* Reading Fushigi Yuugi for game purposes. XD

* Been to the VA here to finally get my health issues sorted. My primary doc, Dr. Raja, is awesome -- she shakes her finger at me and scolds me. XD I need to get healthy too, so we're trying to resolve my hip/back pain so I can walk and go to the gym with Angie and lose weight. <3

* I still haven't unpacked yet. XD

* All but ready to abandon LJ completely and fold my so-called "personal" DW journal into this one, just so I don't feel so scattered and stupid.

ANYWAY THAT IS THE HAPS WITH PIXIE. <333

As far as I'm concerned, there are two reasons to watch Project Runway at this point (sometimes 3):

1) Tim Gunn.
2) Mood (FABRIC ENVY FLAIL GO).
3) Swatch (puppy!).

Top Chef and Project Runway are my trainwrecks, but yeah, interest is starting to pall there like woah.

Baccano! <3

On the Charis front: stupid drama (sigh), impending con with Denver crew (yay!), fighting the urge to start working on Elisabeth's Red Dress of Doom, my arm continuing to be a bitch, Baka continuing to yo-yo on his health, and general blargh. And lots and lots of Takarazuka because I am rather addicted to its blingtastic shininess. XDDDD And it keeps me distracted from aforementioned Stupid Drama. Need to clean house, but that'll probably fall in my downtime after I get back from NDK.

Healthy is on the To-Do List too, especially with the summer heat fading. I have an awesome little loop of a walk I can take from back behind my house that takes me along the creek and past the dog park, and I want to start taking advantage of the pool here too. I need to cook more, because I like to cook and I tend to cook fairly healthily, but my problem is always that I don't want months of leftovers and I cannot make less than A LOT of food and I lack people to feed it to. XD Have overcome my fear of shirataki most recently, so need to start experimenting with those in stuff besides soup.

AND THAT IS ALL.

I'm so braindead that I couldn't immediately remember what the Super Secret Project was. DERP DERP DERP
