Yesterday for some reason Scalzi was listing his 5 favourite John Cusack teen movies and I volunteered that mine was The Journey of Natty Gann.
Meredith Salenger, the actress who played Natty, responded with an “Awesome!” and I am now totally full of dorktastic fangirl squee. OMG. #dorktastic
Seriously, that movie could be the place my great love of unrequited/impossible love stories comes from. Even now I think Natty and Harry’s story was utterly heartbreaking in the best angstful way possible, and of course in my head I wrote MILLIONS of stories about how they find each other again but no I am absolutely not looking for fanfic of that because if it wasn’t perfectly done I would hate it forever so no. o.o
But I do still love the movie, even a lifetime later, and I’m all dorky and happy now. #beams
Well, she’s now climbed to even more dizzying heights: Playing tabletop games with Wil Wheaton on Tabletop.
I live for that stuff on Twitter particularly. The other day someone (I want to say it was Dallas Page) said they got to hang out with Chuck D, and I commented that Chuck D is, you know, a legend. Then Chuck D followed me on Twitter.
I know I SHOULDN’T think it’s a big deal, and yet… :)
Excuse me. I’m going to go run around and go SQUEEEEE on your behalf. *laughs* Yes, yes, it SHOULDN’T be a big deal, but…! :) :) :)
