Getting Caught Up on Comics, Laundry and Hating Headtilt.

So, when I discover I only have Nightwing up to 102 and that I am loving Year One (OMG!! CLARK! Smart and Sassy Clark! And Snarky In-the-Dark Lois! ::loves::) I am going to want to immediately run to the comic store and buy 103/104. Just so you know.

Good thing I haven't figure this out yet.

Today I have made this veggie tart thing and I have a pot roast in the oven and tonight I am having the roast and new potatoes in white sauce (and I hope I remember how to make the white sauce. My phone is acting strange and I don't know where my mother is today. It's like a roux with milk - right?) and veggie tart for supper.

And I have to run to the laundromat in a minute (after I dye my hair) and wash a couple of loads of clothes. I've got 2 issues of Astonishing X-Men to read while the hair thing is accomplished, and the third trade of "The Runaways" to get me through washing my clothes.

And "Supreme Power" 14 for later tonight and that would be the perfect weekend if I could only get freaking Headtilt to cooperate and let me post this frelling vid. Dammit.

I have been waiting to post this vid for MY ENTIRE LIFE!!

::passes out from strain and NOTHING GETS DONE::

New Vid!! Invisible Man!!

OMG. I am posting a vid. It has been over six months since I have finished anything at all and I worked on this vid for over three months cause I just...my god - I cannot tell you how much fun I have had making this vid, which is really kinda weird considering this is not a fun little happy vid, but whatever. This is me. I eat angst for breakfast and then I have a nervous breakdown for lunch and none of this is really doing anything about telling y'all about this vid, is it?

Okay - first of all: tzikeh and Dorinda have been patiently hearing about this concept (and also entertaining me) since March. That was when this song went on repeat at my house. I am still not tired of this song (but I have a very high tolerance for repetition). They helped convince me that the idea was not only kinda solid, but also interesting. I love you guys.

Then I proceeded to drive my betas insane. Seriously - I think I broke renenet. At the very least she joined me in christening the vid Dewey. sockkpuppett actually went and watched the entire series and she is just so great. And then! Cause I needed more people to join me in being crazy - we rounded off beta duties with permetaform and elynross and they both helped keep me focused on the end.

Except I never wanted to just stop. It is hard for me, right now - with the vid files trimmed and put away, to admit that I am finished with this vid. But this is Dewey. And I dressed him up as best I could and I went and found a village to help raise him and he might have chewed through his right sleeve, but that is only because he got tired of waiting and I told him to sit there and not move and then I was distracted by another vid for just one moment!

And it is good think I don't have kids - you know?


So - the vid (Premiered at Escapade last night):

Fandom is The Invisible Man. Vid is set (psychologically - if that makes any sense?) between the events of "Enemy of My Enemy" and "The New Stuff" so there are spoilers for almost the entire series. If you are DLing the series to watch - don't watch the vid until you've at least seen through "Possessed" cause I would hate for you to be spoiled. It would pain me.

Song is Weeping Willow by The Verve. The credits for this vid were done by the amazing fan_eunice who can make anything happen. She is my Fairy Godmother of After Effects.

Eventually this vid will go up on Headtilt -- after I overhaul the site (muahahaha the power). Until then, it will be available in this post.
