randomness; file roundup

[erilyn]

I'm not procrastinating about studying for three tests at all. It's vitally important that I randomly surf the net and burn dvds for people at the moment, really.

The coming out announcements seem to come in batches (and mostly to People magazine). Lance came out soon after Darren Hayes announced he'd gotten married. Now Neil Patrick Harris confirms he's gay, soon after TR Knight (from Grey's Anatomy) did.

Anyone know if bachelor_girl is ok?

Nick and Aaron cancelled their visit to Australia to promote House of Carters at the last minute, and there's been no explanation why. Odd.

Random fun - Jai Rodriguez singing Something Special.

Does anyone know if the actress who plays JJ on Criminal Minds is pregnant? She looked a little rounder in the face in this week's episode, and part way through I realised she was wearing a jacket inside/carrying things in front of her/other classic signs of hiding an unscripted pregnancy ;)

MTV has quotes from AJ about the upcoming album and more :Backstreet's back ... almost. Backstreet Boys fans will have to wait just a little longer before they can get their hands on the band's new CD, according to A.J. McLean. "The boys and I are finishing up the new record, coming out at the top of the year," McLean revealed to MTV News at the Moto 8 party Thursday night in Hollywood. "We're about three-quarters of the way through. We just got new mixes, we're just kind of going through the top eight [songs] we have right now, and getting the mix [done] properly. But everyone's really stoked about it. The songs are great, man." Additionally, McLean has spent the last six months working on another solo record. "It's a lot of personal stuff," McLean explained. "Like, my relationship with my father that I don't really have. There's a song about him called 'Sincerely Yours.' There's a lot of songs on the record that are just me expressing who I am and letting everyone know I am my own person outside of Backstreet Boys." Whether McLean resurrects his Johnny No Name alter ego remains to be seen.

b_g said that she was going to delete her lj for a while so she wouldn't be tempted to procrastinate from school. She'll be back once she gets over the hump.

Neil Patrick Harris wasn't out already?

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I was hoping it was just a temporary departure, thanks :) I probably should do that too...but that's not gonna happen *g*.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

There was a story going around that he was vigorously denying being gay, so his announcement was because of that.

[copracat]

No, it's that evangelical preacher in the US who is vigorously denying being gay :)

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Either way, he was clearing up the misunderstanding :)

TARDIS icon because I always wanted to be a timelord when I was studying. Hope it gets easier and less procrastinatory soon (don't answer this comment!)

*mwah*

Three exams? So no crappy Smallville tonight, then? I have another shitty episode... dripping with crudy writing and wince-worthy situations!

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

They're only tests this week, exams don't start til the week after next. I could come over for a couple of eps, if you're in the mood :)

[iibnf.livejournal.com]

Are you hungry? I'm making chicken wings. I was going to freeze the excess, but if you're interested, I can put them in for you. (Soy and Honey).

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I've already eaten, thanks, but I can come around and bother you while you cook *g*.

[iibnf.livejournal.com]

Yah, okay, they slow cook, be a while anyway. Slow cook and MESSY eat.

BTW, love the icon.

[boomingvoice.livejournal.com]

ah! that's good to know. I was wondering too.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Not noticeably yet! ;)

[vaudevilles.livejournal.com]

I'm sure LJ went down just so you could study...

[cardalia.livejournal.com]

Hi, I downloaded the Chris and Joey radio bits a few days ago but couldn't leave a comment because LJ was wonky. =/ So thanks for sharing and I have to say you were a very cool talking to them! (and non-creepy, unlike some of the other callers) I'm glad you got to talk to them!

It's great fun listening to them especially when they start bickering like an old married couple and talking about inside jokes in Europe. Eee! I love the way Joey keeps calling everyone sweetie and sweetheart and thanking them for calling while Chris not-so-subtly mocks them. *g*

I also friended you because people keep saying erilyn posted this or that and I'm lurking here enough to warrant a real hello. *waves*

hi again. wanted to let you know i'm downloading stuff from you again. mostly bsb this time. research for sesa. hope that's okay. thanks so much for sharing!

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I never got his comment, sorry! Thanks, it was such a blast to get to talk to them, and I'm glad I came across as ok (I was so nervous!).

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

If there's anything specific you're after, feel free to email me, I'm more than happy to help with Sesa inspiration/research for either group :)

[lisan.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I really don't have an idea what to write yet, so I'm just watching random stuff and hoping something will click. :)

[lovekeller.livejournal.com]

I'm downloading a few of your nsync files at the moment. I've been meaning to do this for a while, but the bookmark got lost and I just now found it. Thanks for sharing the love.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

You're welcome, and I've just posted some more stuff today :)
