why am i awake?

Because. I can be.

lush_rimbaud and I continue to not write our S'mores Collaboration Fic of Doom. We almost started it on Friday, but got sidetracked in the film section of Barnes & Noble and spent two hours looking for pictures of Elijah Wood or blurbs relating to LotR in various film books. But the fic will be written someday. Really. Possibly before graduation, even. Because, dude, we were meant to write a collaboration fic. She writes smut really well and I'm a dialogue whore. So, like, as we decided a while ago, Dom will say something humorous and Lij will orgasm. Sounds great, right?

Incidentally, "awake" is a relative term. Especially at 4:21 AM.

see kaydee become a quivering blob of SQUEE!

HUGE thanks to ldmoonflower for giving me the heads up.

From today's Newsday interview with Neil Patrick Harris:
Q: Are you still [going to do "Assassins"]?
A: From all I hear, it's planned to go into Studio 54 at the beginning of next year, with Joe Mantello directing. If it happens, I would be involved. I would play the balladeer, who is kind of the voice of hope and reason. Then at the end I turn into Lee Harvey Oswald, which is fun, because originally, two different actors played those parts.

You have to understand, I am an insane Sondheim FREAK, and Assassins is one of my favorite Sondheim shows of all time. PLUS, about a year ago, I was going through this whole my-god-if-I-ever-could-direct-Assassins phase, and I babbled to everyone about how the Balladeer and Oswald should be played by the same person, because symbolism and interesting shit and all that. AND IT'S ACTUALLY HAPPENING! Dude! DUDE! I so totally called this! ::bounces off walls:: And Neil Patrick Harris! Who has this incredible, beautiful Broadway-type voice! And...and...::spontaneously combusts from the coolness of it all::

(Yes, underneath this whole LotR slasher facade, I'm actually more of a Broadway nut than anything else. Please indulge.)
