Oh, I just saw the latest Avatar episode, The Firebending Masters, and it was truly a thing of beauty, both stylistically and plot-wise. S3 has been sort of lazy, but episodes like this one, The Awakening and Day of the Black Sun pts. 1 and 2 save it.

Also, I've always been impressed and awed by the way the writers can mix oriental cultures in such a coherent and wonderful way - it makes every separate culture richer, in a way - but this episode took the cake. Mixing mesoamerican cultures (especially Aztec, Teotihuacan, Maya and Inca cultures) with cambodian and Hindi cultures? FOR THE MOTHERFUCKING WIN. And it was so seamlessly mashed up! So wonderful, truly.

MY AVATAR LOVE, IT IS FINALLY ALIVE AGAIN.

(Even if I still want to strangle half the people over at avatar_fans for being so stupidly juvenile and immature and fucking spammy.)

Flamenco classes finally started back this week, and you've no idea how glad I am. I depend on it a lot, because it always leaves me in a good mood and there's good conversation and gossip and it's just incredible fun. I've been dancing for 9 and a half years, I don't know what I would do without it.

I've been watching Journeyman for a while already, but three days ago I hit the Poing of No Return, meaning I've been watching it obsessively, lol. I can't believe how good it is, and how it STILL got cancelled. *fumes* So I really recomend it, guys, it makes me gasp in the most delighting way. *goes away to continue the marathon*

On mother's day/father's day/Christmas/first communions/birthdays etc. I always end up being the one doing the celebration card, because no one else in my family has any artistical talent whatsoever, lol. I always do them in like, five minutes, but they're sort of cute, so. Tomorrow's my mom's birthday (congrats mom!) ( and this is her card )
