( She has the best secret. )

So I just went and bought Mean Girls so I can write femslash. I? Am so cool. This story idea? Also so cool. I'm half-afraid it's already been done, because I've only read one Mean Girls story and it was written specifically for me (I love you, Sarah), so I have no idea what is out there in the fandom.

However, I love Regina. Love her. She's so bitchy and wicked and evil. She reminds me of Shauna.

How can I not love this movie? Bitchy, caculating, evil Regina. High school students acting like animals. I've done more than one project about animal behavior in humans, and evolutionary psychology and oh. This movie just covered some of the more fun points of it. Amazing, absolutely fabulous.

I should get back to this story. I had another idea, but one of the lines in the movie gave me a scene which won't go away, so I'm going to write it instead, and leave the other one for another time. So much fanfic this weekend, I'm thrilled with my writing.

See the icon? Sarah made it to go with the story. It makes me smile. More people should write Mean Girls stories.

I should trust thestalkycop more often. Or really, because I do, I should listen to her movie recs and watch them immediately. Mean Girls is one of the funniest films I've seen in awhile. It's all the things I like in my comedy--sarcasm, high school hijinks, bitchy women, and a far-too-pretty Lohan, pre-anorexia. Thanks, Sarah, I love it and this is going to be one I buy.

I'm also interested in femslash for it, because can you see Cady swept up in female romance? Or Regina using sex to tie people to her? You know she does.

Sarah, you were right, Regina is definitely high school Shauna, or at least the outside of high school Shauna. She's wonderful, cruel and frightening and fabulous.

To round out the high school girl experience, I've just finished Away Laughing on a Fast Camel and Then He Ate My Boy Entrancers by Louise Rennison, the latest two books in a British series about Georgia Nicolson, her friends, her boyfriends, and all sorts of mishaps. It cracks me up.

Watched the first of the BtVS season three graduation episodes, because Oz. Panicking. Still the cutest, sweetest thing I've seen. Even though the show is over -- far, far over -- and Oz has been gone for awhile, I miss him. The world needs more Oz, and more Seth Green in general.

It's been a fandom weekend. Seth Green is the avatar thestalkycop and I use for [data embargo], so watching Oz was good. I've already mentioned Mean Girls, and we use Rachel McAdams as the avatar for Shauna. (Anyone reading Queertet Revisited will know who I mean. If you've read The Protector Series, Rachel McAdams would be high school Shauna, obviously not adult Shauna.) J. and I watched D3 The Mighty Ducks, which is, of course, the fandom Queertet Revisited is in. Finally, I have The Butterfly Effect to watch, which has Elden Henson in it, who plays Fulton in the Ducks movies and Fulton is one of the main characters in QR.

And I've rambled way, way too much. I think I need to make some pictures for QR and write some more. I sent Sarah some bits and pieces, but I didn't hear back from her today, so I'm not sure what to write next.

Yay fandom. Yay four day weekend. Yay one more day off.
