Random Musings - 12/19/16

-It's really tough trying to work out what's important and what isn't, particularly with the time of year and current events.  Trying to get enough holiday gifts for friends (and I know I'm afraid I may miss one or two) while plotting a move that gets you out of the area you grew up is just a hard thing to get to.  I'm trying my best to get everything I literally want to get amidst it all, but things are so hectic that I hope you can forgive me if I forget someone or something. (such is the burden of needing to comm stuff since I can't draw myself)

-I wonder sometimes if not being pop culturally savvy is either an advantage or a burden in my life.  I went out with some people the other day and they were all talking about all this stuff that everyone knew about and cared about like video games, Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, Netflix shows...and here I was sort of completely out of it.  I have zero care about any of this stuff; heck I just recently only got into Avatar: the Last Airbender, so it isn't like I care what's popular or relevant now.  (plus my big purchases for the year were some Power Rangers and Sentai season sets and a box set of Barney Miller) I want to like my own thing and happy I am able to, but it makes me all the more socially awkward in that there isn't much for me to talk about outside maybe some elements of music (some, not all).  Lucky I still play Pokémon or else that would be one less thing I'd be connected with...

-I do want to get started on the Fan Mail talent show now that my schedule is a lot clearer...not too clear (starting on a Gaoranger review but have time with that since I won't need to rush to that; have until March when I finish my next series which I'm not starting yet; let alone the move to Butler), but clear enough.  Though speaking of talent: its just scary that I just can imagine Hydie singing the Anna parts to "For the First Time in Forever" from Frozen while Quinn is singing the Elsa parts.

Quinn: (grumbling) As much as that movie is overrated and dumb, there does seem to be a lot in common with me and that song...

Hydie: (smiling adorably) Well I think it's about both of us perfectly!

Yeah...it's just a thought.
