slap of the arpeggio

[recrudescence]

Gaaaah.

Am reading Twilight. Just to make sure it's really worth the wank.

Thing is, I was reading Lovecraft immediately beforehand, and the juxtaposition is like going from plasma-screen HDTV to a black-and-white affair with rabbit ears you have to spastically wave around in order to get anything resembling a satisfactory picture.

New!Teacher swore I would love it and send me the file earlier today. Eighty pages left and I am so thoroughly beyond unconvinced. She owes me an Atlas bar (which, bluerosefairy, are a highly recommended specimen of Korean junk food). This is seriously the least engaging thing I've read in a very long time. And that includes the photo essay on mangroves I just taught in fifth grade.

The "one big incestuous vampire family" thing could have been kind of cool, too. But I am Not Thinking About This because I have yet to start my Yuletide fic. Ahahaha, God help me.

Yes, thank you. I felt almost pressured when I walked out of the theater to say 'oh, my that was great', of course, me being me, I just flat-out told them: "Dudes, that blew."

I don't know who makes up the rules on what's going to be hot or not, but I sure as hell don't like them. There are far more deserving authors out there.

At least I'm not the only one who feels this way...
