Presumed to be awesome.

I've been doing a lot of fic reading lately. I'm looking at this as one of the silver linings of unemployment! *g* Whatevs. My excess of free time, means more fic recs for you!

Enjoy, bbs! *mwah*

( Lots of awesome stories involving lots of pretty boys doing lots of amazing and filthy things to each other! Good times! )

It's Friday!!! Although, I discovered this morning that Friday doesn't carry the same level of excitement when you haven't been slogging through work for the previous five days. *shrugs* Oh, well. It's still FRIDAY!!! I think Friday's, whether or not they come at the end of a work week, should be full of fun and sparkly things!

:: llandaffaz and I made a completely unplanned trip to Albuquerque on Tuesday for Adam Lambert's show. It was at a teeny-tiny theater that only held about 800 people, we found out Monday night around 11 that we could buy tickets off of someone, it was only about a 7 hour drive, my calendar was suddenly completely clear *g*, so we figured, what the hell. SPONTANEITY FTW!!!

It was a little weird to discover that this Albuquerque crowd was probably the rudest, most obnoxious GA crowd I've been in, including metal shows! Seriously, 300 pound dude, there's no need to push over a 12 year old girl to get closer to the stage. She's about 4 feet tall and weighs all of 90 pounds soaking wet; I'm sure you can see just fine standing behind her. And really, people, this was Adam Lambert we're watching; WE SPARKLE WE DON'T MOSH!!! Ugh. There were so many people thrown out, and I ended up getting the 12 year olds in front of me so that I could at least keep some of the rude shoving and pushing off of them.

But despite the rude and obnoxious crowd (which is really SO strange for an Adam show, as just about everyone else I've encountered has been super nice), there were some awesome people there too. I ended up partying it up standing next to the most gorgeous gay couple in Albuquerque, seriously these boys were SO pretty and touchy and distracting even with Adam on the stage! And the adorable gay teenager in front of us in line who was just as excited to see Tommy as he was Adam and who was practically vibrating with joy after the show filled me with glee!!! And the show was AMAZING!!! Vicki and I had a blast!


:: So You Think You Can Dance!!!! I'm so pleased with the final three. With the exception of Alex who was knocked out by injury and Billy Bell, who was eliminated last week, these were my favorites from the start. I was driving home on Wednesday night, so I didn't get to watch the performance episode, but I finally found Kent and Neil's contemporary piece, choreographed by Travis Wall. I might have watched this about a dozen times already, and if you haven't seen it yet, I'm sorry about your life! GodDAMN. Those three boys make magic together.


:: Cheeks as the gay equivalent of Blanche Devereaux in a theater remake of The Golden Girls!!!! This sounds like the most fantastically hilarious thing ever!!! There is no way that coolwhipdiva and I are not going to be there for this epic fabulosity!

Today's happiness, let me tell you about it! *g*

First, last night there was this:



Thank you, boys, for the epic degrees of fanservice you are dishing up on this tour. Please feel free to lick each other any time the mood strikes. *g*


And then there are the plans for N'awlins shenanigans in September that are underway! I managed to put all my lawyerly skills to bear and persuade azewewish to join me and coolwhipdiva for said shenanigans. Or, you know, NOT REALLY. Because, really, she did not put up much resistance. *g* But, OMG, New Orleans, and Adam, and Adam and Tommy licking each others' faces, and Saints football, and Jeremy Shockey's abs and ink, and beignets, and ME AND MY GIRLS RAISING HELL IN N'AWLINS!!!!! I might be a little bit excited about this. *g*


And then there's all the World Cup related excitement. I, sadly, missed this mornings amazing U.S. win because I had to be in court. Nevertheless, GO USA!!! I hope those boys are celebrating properly, which, you know, should include lots of post-game adrenaline fueled sex. *g*

ETA:


More awesome picspam of pretty boys celebrating (sadly NOT with hot, post-game adrenaline fueled sex) HERE. (Link courtesy of mistresscurvy.)


But the HAPPIEST part of today involves one adorable and ridiculously hot POCKET IDOL!!! KRIS!!!!!! Tonight! I'll be skipping out of work early to drive down to Tucson with llandaffaz and zoniduck. We plan on getting lost on the way to the Rialto (dear gods, I've never managed to make it there without getting lost and then accidentally finding it!), and then we plan on stalking accidentally running into Kris and the band (what? it totally could happen by coincidence! *g*), and then we plan on ROCKING OUR FACES OFF at the show!!! Good times, people, this is sure to be damn good times.

>> Roy Halladay a perfect game today!!! It's the 20th perfect game in MLB history and the SECOND this month! I love this crazy game!



>> OMFG, finally we get THIS:





>> Who's gonna write me the fem-slash? *begs*





>> Dianna Agron and Lea Michelle were out with the rest of the Glee cast celebrating Chris Colfer's birthday. ( They are ADORABLE! )


>> Apparently Allison Iraheta will also be in Adam Lambert's If I Had You music video. I find this incredibly charming!



(If you click and make it bigger, you can see Allison on the far right in the green/silver cloak.)

Random sparkly fun stuff for your Friday happy-making!

:: Christina Aguilera's new video for "Not Myself Tonight"!!!

( So hot out the box! )

What do y'all think? I kinda love it! It's certainly not groundbreaking in any way and rings of both Madonna and Lady Gaga. But, whatever, it's NEW CHRISTINA!!! And it's crazy hot!!! There's no bad there! *g*

:: Johnny Weir is adorbs! But this is not news. The news part is that he skated a gorgeous new routine, 'Heartbroken,' for Ice Theater of New York.

( Heartbroken )

Beautiful! *loves*

:: Also not news: Adam Lambert is gorgeous! He was featured in People's Beautiful People edition.

( Beautiful in every single way. )

:: Adam also seems to like hugging is pretty little bassist, Tommy. I approve of this!

( Because all straight bassist hug their gay bosses like this, right? )

I just love how touchy-feely they are with each other. Pretty boys being huggy and adorable!!! There is NO bad here!


:: Cheeks' picks for Hot 100 are featured on After Elton today. So cheeky! And, according to him, this is not a "wish list," but a "to do" list! Which, you know, just pings the hell outa my, uh, love of lists! Yeah, that's it! *g*

I'm still trying to wash out the bad taste from yesterday's complete failure of a day. So, what's better for happy-makin' purposes, than a Hot Guy Post?!!!

Does this really need any commentary? Other than ASDKFJLKDJF!!!!!!!1!!!!!



There's a super huge version of this pic if anyone wants poster-sized Pocket Idol hotness [HERE].

( Cassidy Haley posted new pictures recently. )

And, to round out our Happy Makin' Hot Guy Post, Adam's video for Time for Miracles is out. I approve of post-apocalyptic, grunge!Adam!!!

I'm on my third day of nearly complete sloth and it's been heavenly. Other than a workout with the trainer that kicked my ass into next week and a visit last night with The Nieces, I've done nothing this weekend other than watch t.v. and read fic. Which is exactly what I was aiming for after last month's craziness.

So, I have some pretty boys to share with y'all today, because I'm a giver like that. *g* But before we get distracted by the pretty, I wanted to say a huge THANK YOU to all of you that have donated to the Phoenix Aids Walk. Y'all seriously ROCK MY WORLD!!! There's still time, so if you want to help out, and really, any little bit helps, then you can go [here] to my donation page.

Ok. I promised pretty boys. arabella_hope posted this picture of Kris the other day and I really have no idea how I had missed this! ( Cute boy in really, really tight pants!!! )

Y'all remember Cassidy Haley, of the Whiskey In Churches video that I posted a few weeks ago, right? Well here's the video for his song Little Boys and Dinosaurs. It's fantastic!

( Little Boys and Dinosaurs )

And, if it isn't entirely obvious from his music videos (which, really, are you just NOT paying attention???), Cassidy Haley is DAMN HOT!

( *bites lip* )

:: An extra cup of coffee in the morning with the deliciousness of Pumpkin Spice creamer. Mmmm...coffee.

:: We got a new second baseman (and by "we" I mean the Diamondbacks, of course, *g*). I'll be sad not to see Orlando Hudson in a D'backs uniform, but there's no way will be able to afford him. And I'm glad Augie Ojeda will be around, he's a great utility player. But we really needed someone at second, and it looks as if that'll be Felipe Lopez. And, as an extra bonus tailored to my baser interests, our new second baseman has some very pretty ink!!! *g*

( Meet Felipe, our new, nicely inked second baseman. )

:: I'm currently watching "It's a Wonderful Life" on television. I love this movie! This, "Love Actually," and "A Christmas Story" are my three absolute favorite holiday movies, and no holiday season is complete until I've watched each at least once. Even though I haven't yet managed to put out a single holiday decoration, this makes the season official! :)

:: Earlier today, I caught this documentary type show on Showtime about these two boys and I have become completely smitten with them! They are a gay, contemporary Christian musicians!!! Yeah, I know! They also do mainstream pop music, but a big part of their music is about the integration of their spiritual life and their sexuality. And, while the contemporary Christian music industry hasn't exactly thrown their arms open in welcome, they've put out several independently produced CDs and they perform in liberal churches and they do a bunch of work within the Christian community bringing focus to the appallingly high rate of teenage suicides. And, well, they are just ADORABLE!!! This is Jason and deMarco:



Am I right??? Aren't they just ADORABLE! ♥

( Here are a few more examples of their adorableness. )

And while their music might be a bit saccharine, I do like their voices, but mostly I just like THEM!

( Here's their video OF 'This Is Love' that includes lots of boys being schmoopy and ADORABLE!!! )

:: All afternoon I've been enjoying reading this original piece of slash fiction that someone on my flist recently shared that involves boys and baseball and boys lovin' baseball and boys lovin' boys and it's been DELIGHTFUL!!!
