DO IIIITTTT




This is my first time signing up for a holiday fic exchange and I'm ~excited. You should do it too. :)

I might as well do it, since I'm a meme whore.

Ask me a fandom, and I will tell you:

+ OTP
+ Runner-up
+ Honorable mention(s)
+ Crack pairing(s)
+ Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't

If you don't know my fandoms, uh look at my profile. Please and thanks. I'm not gonna list them all again here.

Also, has there been any type of Castle frieding meme yet? Cause there really should be. I'd love a bunch of new Castle-loving friends. :)

P.S. I did watch Tuesday's episode of House. I was shocked. My face at the end was like :O
I have to say I'm really liking House (the show and the character) again. But I'm not ready to get all back in the fandom yet.

I've done this meme before, but what the hell. I'm on my new laptop and so I have a completely different wallpaper. :) Oh and I'm bored so I'm gonna do this meme anyway.

01. Anyone who looks at this entry has to post this meme and their current wallpaper at their LiveJournal.
02. Explain in five sentences why you're using that wallpaper!
03. Don't change your wallpaper before doing this! The point is to see what you had on.

So the whole Coyotes fiasco is finally being settled (kinda) and the season is about to start. Woot! Now, my header is definitely no longer appropriate. xcacophony is supposed to be making me a new one (this is your kick in the butt, *ahem*) so until then it will have to remain.

I'm probably going to be getting rid of all, or most, of my icons and uploading new ones pretty soon. I still don't have a paid account, but I'm using a Plus account so I can use more icons.

Vampire Diaries tonight!!! Y'all should watch it.

And that's all I've got for now. Wow, twitter has really hindered my ability to write any kind of substantial entry. I'm so used to 140 characters or less.

CONVERSATION IN WHICH I CHRONICLE TO HOLLY (xcacophony) MY WEIRD MARK REYNOLDS DREAM I HAD LAST NIGHT, AND I TRY TO THINK OF WHAT TATTOO STEPHEN DREW WOULD GET IF HE EVER DECIDED TO DEFACE THAT GODLY BODY.

missy7280: i had a horrible time going to sleep last night
missy7280: too many Jon Garland thoughts
missy7280: and then Mark Reynolds ended up in my dream somehow
xcacophony: o.O
missy7280: I was going to post about it on LJ but just didn't have time
xcacophony: aw. what'd he do in the dream?
missy7280: not much lol. It was odd
missy7280: so apparently my friend needed to go the Reynolds house? to get clothes from Kathleen or something random like that? so yeah I went with her
xcacophony: weird.
missy7280: And Mark was going to get a tattoo
missy7280: something written in Hebrew. He had the design written out and I was looking at it, and for some reason I could understand some Hebrew and told him I thought it was mis translated
missy7280: and I was writing in a notebook trying to write down stuff about their house or something. Like I was trying to write down the address so I could go back there (for some reason I couldn't just remember it?). and all of a sudden Mark grabbed the notebook from me and was reading it. I had other doodles on it. And I remember thinking "Thank god I didn't write anything about Mark/Stephen on there!"

I AM ON CRACK AND I LOVE IT. XD

stole from blinding_voip. But skipping some... because I'm really not THAT knowledgable. And using mostly current players, cause I'm not that caught up on my baseball history.

Basically, say that you HAD to get a player tee from each of the 30 MLB teams. You can get a current or retired player.

EDIT: I totally thought I was just picking my favorite player(s) from each team, not who I'd want a t-shirt of. Oops, oh well.


Baltimore Orioles: Cal Ripken, Jr.
Boston Red Sox: Jason Bay
New York Yankees: Nick Swisher. the only yankee I can stand duhhh
Tampa Bay Rays: Evan Longoria
Toronto Blue Jays: I ACTUALLY LOVE THE BLUE JAYS, but I don't really know the individual players, ahem. I'll say Lyle Overbay.

Cleveland Indians: Meh. Skipping
Chicago White Sox: THE WHOLE DAMN TEAM. Mark Buehrle, Jim Thome, A.J. Pierzynski... EVERYONE
Detroit Tigers: RICK PORCELLO. What a beast. lmao
Kansas City Royals: David Cook. Oh wait, he's not actually a player? Seems like he is, ahaha. Ok ok, Zack Greinke I guess.
Minnesota Twins: Joe Mauer, probably

Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim: Uhhh Mike Napoli. yeah, go catcher! (?)
Oakland A's: Scott Hairston. And Dan Haren from his A's days, he looked damn good in those colors.
Seattle Mariners: Ichiro Suzuki. That was probably the easiest choice to make.
Texas Rangers: Ian Kinsler

Atlanta Braves: Adam LaRoche with Chipper Jones close second
Florida Marlins: JORGE FUCKING CANTU. ♥ Cody Ross verrrrrry close 2nd
New York Mets: Jeff Francoeur, probably
Philadelphia Phillies: You mean I have to choose?! Not happening. Ok, fine. Jayson Werth, by a nose hair. Then Chase Utley, Shane Victorino, Cole Hamels...
Washington Natinals: ZIMMERMAN. Also one of the easiest choices to make. ♥

Chicago Cubs: Mark Grace, when he was a Cub
Cincinnati Reds: Pete Rose is probably my favorite player of all time, so yeah. From modern times, definitely Joey Votto. CANADIANS FTW!
Houston Astros: Pudge Rodriguez and Lance Berkman, tie.
Milwaukee Brewers: Mike Cameron is pretty bad ass?
Pittsburgh Pirates: Garrett Jones, and Andrew McCutchen cause he actually looks like a Pirate and it makes me laugh.
St Louis Cardinals: Yadier Molina. Who has a thing for Catchers? I do!

Arizona Diamondbacks: It's kinda mandatory that I say Stephen Drew, right? Mark Reynolds and Dan Haren are also my faves, and Justin Upton when he's healthy (he'll be a huge star one day, I believe that). But believe it or not my all-time favorite Diamondback is probably Junior Spivey. It really makes me sad that he's not playing major league ball anymore. :/
Colorado Rockies: Brad Hawpe
Los Angeles Dodgers: Ughhh... skipping, sorry. Just can't bring myself to pick any of the Dodgers.
San Diego Padres: CHASE HEADLEY. Reasoning? I has none.
San Francisco Giants: Timmy. Except for when he's pitching against us (Dbacks) *shudders*


JUST LIKE I THOUGHT, that took me way too long. I really need to get to know other teams' rosters better. :/

Was Livejournal hacked or something? How come the main page was an icon for a while? Very weird.
So I did that hockey meme, now it's only right to do a baseball meme:

What is your favorite MLB team?
Diamondbacks. (then the Cards and White Sox of course)

What team do you hate the most?
Dodgers. Cubs. My hatred is pretty even, although with the Cubs it lies completely with their annoying ass fans.

Whose uniforms do you like?
Phillies all the way. Why do you think I got a Phillies jersey?! (I have a thing for pinstripes)
And of course, the best uniforms in baseball:

The Sox all black, with their pinstripe jerseys coming in at a close second.

Who's your overall favorite player?
Stephen fucking Drew. What? How can I answer this any other way?

Second favorite player?
Justin Upton. Loved him since his very first at-bat, and I have stuck by him.

Third favorite player?
Mark Reynolds has won me over, but I feel like I should actually choose somebody good here, like Albert Pujols or something. o.O

What player do you hate the most?
Oh on my own team anybody in the bullpen who fucks up, lately it's been Juan Gutierrez. Casey Blake bothers me a lot, don't ask me why. Nomar Garciappara pisses me off a lot too, for some reason. I'm sure there's a player I actually really hate but I can't think of who it is at the moment... Oh I know! Roger fucking Clemens. UGH HATE HIM.

Who'll play in the World Series?
Hmm... if I had it my way Cardinals/Blue Jays. Rap your head around that one.

Cy Young winners?
Are you serious? I have no freaking clue. In the NL, Dan Haren is totally deserving but I don't think he'll get the number of wins to make him a candidate. I know absolutely zilch about AL pitchers, so I really have no idea.

High or low socks?
High socks, come on. But they have to be worn by the right person. For example, Billy Buckner:

Ohhhh yeah.

Who's your favorite pitcher?
Of all time probably Curt Schilling. Come on, the dude went to my high school! :)
Right now Max Scherzer kinda owns my heart.

♥ ♥ ♥
As long as he's not refusing autographs because he "really has to go" on a day he's not even pitching. >>
Actually will somebody make me an icon out of the above picture? :)

Favorite minor league player?
Um... I really don't know. Can I say Gerardo Parra since he was just recently in the minor leagues?

Best regular-season moment as a fan?
A game I went to when I was younger, when Junior Spivey got a walk-off home run. He was my favorite player at that time, and THAT MADE MY LIFE.

What do you do when there's no baseball?
Think about baseball. Haha but seriously now I have hockey to watch in the winter and still basketball and/or football if I really want.

Bonus!Hiller:

ahahahahaha

Sorry for killing your flist with these super-long posts. :/ But my dad just called me, and since my stepmom is working tonight we get to have some father/daughter bonding time just us. I'm excited! :)

I dreamed I was missing, you were so scared
But no one would listen, 'cause no one else cared
After my dreaming, I woke with this fear
What am I leaving when I'm done here?

So if you're asking me, I want you to know

When my time comes, forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed
Don't resent me, and when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory, leave out all the rest

Leave out all the rest, don't be afraid
I've taken my beating, I've shared what I made
I'm strong on the surface, not all the way through
I've never been perfect, but neither have you

So if you're asking me, I want you to know

When my time comes, forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some reasons to be missed
Don't resent me, and when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory, leave out all the rest

Forgetting all the hurt inside you've learned to hide so well
Pretending someone else can come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are

I can't be who you are

-Linkin Park
