Added two mysteries to the ebooks post, for those of you who've got access. And since I don't know how clear I was in the opt-in poll: I haven't filtered anything I've posted on DW. If I've granted you access at all, you've got access to those uploads (plus any locked angst posts and the post with all my contact info, but they're much less interesting).

I accidentally took a seven hour nap, this totally counts as the Tuesday entry. I was like "Oh, I'll just lay down for an hour or two while I'm waiting for my upload to finish" and then boom, seven hours later.

As for that upload: it froze on 97%. And stayed there for my whole nap. So now I'm uploading all the files individually instead of as a group, which, pain in the ass. But! When it's done, I will be sharing 50 Halloween-y songs (zombies! ghosts! vampires! serial killers! necrophilia!).

So I love the song El Paso, right? They used to play it a lot at work and it is hilarious/quintessentially country and I won a dollar off a customer for knowing who sings it - Marty Robbins.

Who has somehow stretched El Paso into three songs. "El Paso" is the story of the young cowboy doomed by love for the flirtatious Faleena, "Faleena" is the girl's song - a "she didn't mean for men to die for her coquettish ways" backstory, and "El Paso City" is about Marty Robbins's inability to let go of the El Paso story. No, really, like, explicitly. I find the whole thing delightful and (still) hilarious. Because...okay, the song is like COUNTRY OPERA - gunfighting, Mexico, homicidal jealousy, and a death speech. You should ALL listen to it. In fact, here.

So, on my flist, [livejournal.com profile] fox1013 mentioned this show, The Jake Effect, and omg, people, I cannot resist a show with Leslie Grossman (Mary Cherry!), Nikki Cox, and Greg Grunberg. So I torrented the first three episodes and I love it. I mean, it fails in some places and the third ep kind of sucked, but I really enjoyed the first one. So I uploaded it.

The Jake Effect, 1x01

Oh, and since once I start uploading, I find it hard to stop, I'll be editing this post with links. Links to what, I'm not sure. Probably the second ep of The Jake Effect, almost definitely some of The Inside, and possibly Little Britain.

And if anyone wants some Bones, Angel, The Evidence, NCIS, Criminal Minds, How I Met Your Mother, or Heist, I've got most of those series on here. Plus random eps of Invader Zim, CSI: NY, Grey's Anatomy, and House.

ETA: The Jake Effect, 1x02. And I've got The Inside pilot and some season one House (the pilot, Poison, and Detox) up here. Plus, I'm currently uploading Three Stories, which is one of my favorite episodes ever. Oh, and the reason these links are from three different sites is that I was trying to find one I liked as much as sendspace, since they capped their uploads at 300 MB.

ETA2: Okay, so I've uploaded Three Stories and episodes one, five, seven, nine, ten, eleven, and thirteen of The Inside. And wow, it's a little bizarre that all my favorite eps of that show are odd-numbered. But people, that show is awesome. It was created by Tim Minear and stars as the incredibly fucked-up Special Agent Rebecca Locke the girl who later became Rachel Gibson on Alias. Plus it's got Peter Coyote as the creepily Svegali-esque Virgil Webb and Adam Baldwin (Jayne!) as Special Agent Danny Love.

There are only thirteen episodes, because Fox sucks, but those thirteen episodes have cannibalism, child killers, and the obligatory hallucination episode. Plus it's got Firefly nods and Amber Benson as a guest star.

If anybody's interested, I can upload more of The Inside, or what season two House I've got handy. Or both. Nothing makes me happier than people liking what I love.

Okay, so, I'm up to roughly-100 entries. Hence, present.

You know what's awesome? St. Valentine's Day is really just a big thing because the Roman Catholic Church is prudish. See, there was a pagan holiday in Italy around this time that was also a celebration of love. Except this holiday was much more about the debauchery. There was a whole thing where teenagers especially would form temporary "marriages" that were more about getting some socially-sanctioned ass than they were about love. So the Church made a big thing of St. Valentine's Day, and made it a holiday focused on courtly (non-physical) love.

Anyway. I have many new uploads.

I Did It For Love )

This is just to track what I've got uploaded. I'll be editing it as the info changes.

Enjoy )

I'm wasting away, dammit.

I'm so hungry. I want chicken. Or a cheeseburger. Ooh, Burger King. A Tendercrisp, plain, with onion rings and a frozen Coke. And then some fries. Because Burger King has the best fast-food fries.

Oh god, could I ever go for some Okie fries. Potatoes sliced and fried, and then covered in shredded cheese, bacon, and onions, and served with ranch. Mmmm, Okie fries from Jake's; Jake's has the best ranch ever. There's little pieces of onion or something in it and it's wonderful.

Or I could eat some Quizno's.

I miss real food, though. Food that's not all processed. Some spaghetti with turkey meatballs and shredded Parmesan. Homemade chicken tacos. Lori's chicken-and-rice. A nice rare steak, with some pasta.

Wish I had a kitchen.

You know, I talk about food a lot. That's because I love food.

People, I am a hedonist. Food is a sensual pleasure. So I enjoy my food. I develop intense sense memories of food; I crave remembered tastes.

So, instead of talking about, say, the weather, I talk about food.

Okay, so really, this entry was to give some links to some more uploads I did. Here y'all go:

NCIS 1x04 - The Immortals
Navy gamer dies mysteriously. Wearing a sword he shouldn't even have.

NCIS 1x20 - Missing
Serial killer targeting Marines. It's the one with the bees!

NCIS 2x04 - Lt. Jane Doe
Has a killer from Ducky's past returned? Or is it a copycat?

NCIS 2x10 - Chained
Tony goes undercover, chained to a fugitive.

NCIS 2x13 - The Meat Puzzle
Ducky solves the meat puzzle! For those of you not up on the show, the "meat puzzle" refers to the remains of three men found in a barrel of alcohol, sliced up like a jigsaw puzzle. I love this show.

NCIS 2x17 - An Eye for an Eye
Petty officer is mailed a pair of eyes.

NCIS 2x22 - SWAK
Tony is, I kid you not, struck down by the pneumonic plague. He gets the Black Death.

NCIS 2x23 - Twilight
Ari's back. And Gibbs was right about him all along.

NCIS 3x08 - Under Covers
Tony and Ziva masquerade as married Canadian assassins.

NCIS 3x09 - Frame-Up
Tony's framed for murder. With a pair of disembodied legs.

And, just to change things up a little:

Little Britain 1x01
Awesome British comedy, faux-documentary style.

Bones 1x01 - Pilot
'Nother crime show, with an awesome supporting cast.

Uploaded some NCIS episodes to sendspace.

NCIS 1x01 - Yankee White
The pilot-pilot, where we meet Kate.
