OKAY OKAY OKAY!

God I am such a dork. I am ordering checks, right? And one of the options was classic superman comic scenes. So...no questions. I clicked that one. The only regret was that he was the only superhero I had to pick from.

Then I get a little further on in the options and one of those options is a monogram.

Now, some of you may know that my last name just happens to start with an S. So I was looking at these monograms, and at the big S on the middle of Superman's chest, and thinking...you know what "monogram style" I'd like to have? But the monograms cost extra so I didn't pick one, and I went on to the next option.

The next option was to pick one of four symbols, for the same charge as the monogram. The symbols offered?



XD OH GOD YOU GUYS I CAN'T DECIDE WHAT DO I DO?

The S would be my MONOGRAM (in Kryptonian!) but how awesome would it be to have the Daily Planet logo on my checks? 

Personally, I think it would be even more awesome to have the Daily Planet logo on standard business style checks, but that is not an option. (it would go with my favorite style of understated geek humor, though, like my Gotham City Country Club shirt or my Xavier Institute for Higher Learning shirt...)

QUICK! SOMEBODY TELL ME WHAT TO DO?!

I have this thing where I turn certain songs into vids/songfics in my head whenever I hear them. Mostly I don't ever do anything with it, because vids require more commitment and processing power than I have available at the moment, but also because songfics end up silly and not every song that makes you think of a series necessarily would make a good vid. And, of course, you can't really make a vid for a book.

This is a problem because over time, half the mp3s in my giant, perpetually random-cycling playlist have acquired some sort of trigger-status for a particular fanfic I'd like to write, or whatever. So often, like just now, I'm trying to read something or write something or whatever, and a song will come on that makes me completely loose my train of thought. It's very distracting. So, while I'm distracted, I thought I'd list a few of the songs that make me completely loose track of what I'm doing and start writing/vidding in my head. I'd be interested in seeing what songs make other people think of certain fandoms or story/vid premises (I know I can't be alone in this, because there are vidders on my flist, heh). 

Just a sample. There's also lots of songs that people have already made videos from. Then of course there's all the music that's actually from various anime/movies/tv shows, some of which is very distracting all by itself (after watching Kingdom Hospital, I cannot hear Basement Jaxx's Where's Your Head At without laughing so hard I usually spill something on myself).
