I went outside today.
It was for Ecology Lab.
No matter how bitter I'm feeling toward Ecology for this freaking nonsensical lab, thanks to Eco lab I got to go out in the sun. The warm and toasty sun. For hours.
I have probably never been so happy to be sunburned. I haven't been sunburned since summer! Probably not even then, because back then I was wearing sunscreen.
And then Friend Who Doesn't Have an LJ and I went out for ice cream! Spontaneously! Just to take a break! And I actually had lunch today instead of grabbing a granola bar between classes, which made my mood about 150% better for lab.
This is the best Hell Week day ever.

In other news, The Nostalgia Critic = a much more manageable and less time-sucking distraction than TV Tropes. It's like popcorn; you can watch just a video or two at a time, then go back to work! It's very handy, with the advantage of a finite number of videos and no endless link-jumping a la YouTube.
Also he called The Rescuers Down Under an underrated classic and he remembered that The Rocketeer existed. Good man.

Idle curiosity: Does anybody lurk on this journal?

The Rescuers Down Under was one of my earliest movies, I think. I'm very attached to it.

I guess I qualify as a lurker, although I'm very very very new so I don't know if I've even been around long enough to qualify... haha.

Anyway, I think all the surreality in said mindfucks contributed to making my brain what it is. (And yes, the Raggedy Ann Movie was JUST AS FUCKED UP AS IT LOOKS.)

What gets me about that video is the images in the background. Somewhere, behind some corner, that stupid fractal bear is still staring at me. D:
I'm still having trouble believing that the Raggedy Ann movie actually existed. Because, seriously, The Greedy? Just what every doll-based kid's movie needs: a singing, googly-eyed Clayface.
