*shh... i'm LJing from work*

I'm kind of jacked up from caffeine right now. I had to come into work at five am today because there are a lot of stupid people who do stupid things that I get to fix, but whatever, not the point of this post.

dude. There is so much win in my life right now, I don't even know how to deal with it all. Most of it has to do with La Murney, but I think it's spilling over to non-theatre stuff. Work finally hired a third person so instead of two of us doing the work of five, we have three! yayz.

My boss just bought me a caramel macchiato from Starbucks. He keeps on being FTW like there's no tomorrow.

My RL friends finally realized that I won't shut up about Julia Murney and are willing want to come to Sac with me. FOURTH. ROW. SEATS. MOFOS.

LJ friends rock. for serious. like a hurricane.

Television is back. BSG, 30 Rock, Office, HIMYM, SVU. So much awesome, so little time.

[livejournal.com profile] obliviate's birthday is today/tomorrow. silly timezones. [livejournal.com profile] joran's was yesterday. people being born = win.

dudes. spam me with the awesome that is your life. :D

you got tickets to Evita already? I thought they weren't on sale till May.

The 3 show packs went on sale on monday. Someone somewhere mentioned that they tried to buy tickets and they were already getting row P so I caved and bought the pack.

I've always wanted to see gypsy anyway...

wow, awesome! And if you're close enough, might as well. And 4th row for Julia in Evita, I would die! Happily!

LJING FROM WORK IS WIN. ESPECIALLY WHEN IT'S TO FLAIL ABOUT JULIA.
OMG. Convert your friends to the Church of Murney. They'll be FOREVER GRATEFUL.

I think I just spent an hour reading old entries on [livejournal.com profile] julia_murney, LOL. FAIL. But she used to post there, did you know that?!??

I love that you're still listening to Buenos Aires, mwahahaha.

[identity profile] ellixian.livejournal.com 2008-04-17 05:45 pm (UTC)(link)
And since all I'm doing right now is making Julia icons, apparently. You want an av of Julia singing Buenos Aires in rehearsal? ;)

i think by "FAIL" you meant "WIN"

ZOMG. ICON IS SO AWESOME. AV MUCHLY APPRECIATED.

oh man! LINK ME TO THE ENTRIES!!! and what's her LJ name?
not that i'm going to stalk it or anything...

[identity profile] ellixian.livejournal.com 2008-04-17 06:11 pm (UTC)(link)
I DO think I meant win. It's so much fun to read about people stagedooring and getting mail from her. She's SO sweet, you know? Have you ever written to her??

I'm MAKING ICONS like a crazy person. You get sneak peeks before I post them. She's so SEXY in the Pippin performance, zomg:

And it was AGES ago when she posted here - like in 2005, when the community first started around Lennon-time? She was made of fail and did not know how to post so she doesn't have a handle. But she's STILL adorable. Go here! (http://community.livejournal.com/julia_murney/11270.html)

See all the fabulous things you find by reading old entries, LMAO!

OMFG, I just *have* to say that your icons are AMAZING!

[identity profile] ellixian.livejournal.com 2008-04-18 06:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you! ♥ Julia is a fascinating subject. And I've made WAY too many of these over the last 24 hours, lol.

[identity profile] weazel-luv.livejournal.com 2008-04-18 03:57 pm (UTC)(link)
oooh icons... ::pets them::

How do you make animated ones? I keep wanting to learn, but then I get distracted by the shiny shiny videos...

I've never written to her, just because by the time I fully realized my obsession started listening to her stuff, she was done with Wicked and I didn't know where to send a letter.

And OMG, Julia finding her LJ comm FTW! The silly comm doesn't allow boot discussion, so I've never felt motivated to look through their older stuff, but now, I'll have to go hunting through their archives for other fun stuff.

*pets my icons too*
Do you have Photoshop? Basically it's a fairly tedious process of screen-capping the moment you want, right down to the second, and then editing it in Photoshop's companion programme ImageReady. Took me AGES to first figure it out. And they're quite frustrating to make if you want them to fit the LJ size limit, lol!

OH GOD. We both got into the Julia!flail too late, didn't we? I don't THINK I've asked you this, pardon if I did - when did your flail start btw? You're a new fan too, right?
My friend suggested that a letter could be sent to where Julia's currently doing Saved! So I'm tempted to do that, maybe a little nearer May when the show is due to start in previews.

This is terrible - I haven't been so flaily over someone that I'm actually contemplating writing FAN MAIL. But I need to let this woman know how awesome she is and how she rocks my world on a daily basis!! ;)

I trawled through pretty much the ENTIRE LJ yesterday, and found most of the good crack. A couple of personal comments from Julia here and there, but she seems to have stopped providing that for the LJ community. Probably after her fan base increased with Wicked? IDK.

Win! Thank you. :) I'm so jealous.

[identity profile] weazel-luv.livejournal.com 2008-04-17 09:14 pm (UTC)(link)
I hope you had a good one! :D

[identity profile] dying-moonlight.livejournal.com 2008-04-18 10:57 am (UTC)(link)
Well, since I'm being invited to spam... ;)

Exactly one month till my birthday!

Caffeine is goooooooddd. And so is Starbucks. It's practically my lifeline. Never had a caramel macchiato - still attempting to draw the line at mochas, but it does't quite work ;)

Eeee Julia. Insanely jealous again. Julia is so freaking AMAZING

hearting the win in your life :)

[identity profile] weazel-luv.livejournal.com 2008-04-18 04:06 pm (UTC)(link)
YAY for birthdays! it's the one day I feel justified in thinking that the universe revolves around me.

Caramel macchiatos (and lattes in general) are my caffeine fixes of choice. You should give it a whirl.

Julia = AWESOME. 'nuff said.
