Oh man, I'm so tired. In addition to baking the apple pie my grandma asked me to make for a party she's hosting tomorrow, I made choux pastries, profiteroles to be exact. I'm so so tempted to have a piece of the pie, yum yum yum. The profiteroles look all kinds of pretty, but I'm not sure I like them that much. They have way too much eggs in them, and I hate eggs. *shrug* They're good, but I'm not quite sure why I made them when I've never been a great fan of them. *shrug* I'll take pictures tomorrow, when there's better lighting.

Anyway, speaking comics: I'm honestly in awe at how Brian K. Vaughan manages to juggle three comics at the same time (no, wait, four now that he's taken over Buffy's Eight Season) and still manage to keep an incredible quality with all of them. I thought Runaways was good when I first read it, but it's nothing compared to his other work. I've gushed about Y: The Last Man enough in here already, so let's talk about something else:

I finally got my greedy hands on Ex Machina, and boy, am I loving it. I'm only in issue 12 right now, but I already want to snuggle it close to me and call it my precious because it's so. damn. good. You guys know I'm not one for politics, but they're so well portrayed in here that it truly becomes what makes this comic tick. So, Mitchell Hundred is New York's city's mayor, and he can also speak to machines and he used to be a masked vigilante. Really, why can't all superhero comics be this good or this smart? It feels incredibly real, along with being quite creepy at times. And the art is amazing; Tony Harris is really something. Read it, folks, I recomend it fully.

Yayz, I did post Oleaje's translation instead of procrastinate wildly! I'm definitely improving, haha.

I'm really liking the Buffy comics, although the first arc ended like the Heroes' finale. Haha. LAME-O.

I finished the first volume of Sandman! SCARY. :p

Me too, although I know it mostly has to do with how nostalgic it makes me - it honestly sometimes feels like I'm watching it in tv again. :)

Zomg, just wait for volume two. That one's truly the creepiest. o_O BUT. Didn't I tell you how awesome it was? AND DEATH. SHE'S AWESOMECAKES. I love Morpheus, but I like his sisters better, haha.

And eeeh, Project Runway's 3rd season's about to start on tv and i'm all exciiiited about it!

DAAAANIEL, he was so awesome, wasn't he? He's my favorite, and Jay and Austin my favorites from the 1st season. ♥

He's my absolute favorite gay guy EVER. I mean, he's so dreamy. I was watching last night and almost drooling when he smiled. MAJOR crush on that man.

I like Chloe and Kara Saun, they're great designers. Austin was too much for me to handle, I think.

I know nothing about the new season so this is exciting! I really like this show.
