So, I was randomly reading AOL news stuff when I cam across something that disturbed me greatly.

Tossing Out Old Pillows "In five years, 10 percent of the weight of the pillow is dust mite and dust mite debris," says Dr. Tierno. To fight the mites, he recommends a protective cover for your pillow in addition to using a pillowcase. The National Library of Medicine recommends purchasing allergen-impermeable pillow covers, or replacing your old pillows with synthetic, washable pillows and wash them in hot water weekly. So let's hope the 15 percent of survey respondents who said they never throw away their pillows are making every effort to keep the mites away.

DUST MITE AND DUST MITE DEBRIS, WTF?! (o_O)

There's also this:

Washing Your Sheets Sixty percent of you aren't changing them weekly, which is how often Dr. Tierno recommends -- and that's as long as you have a protective cover to guard against dust mites and debris that build up in your mattress. "You could do it more, but that can be excessive and a waste of water," he says. To the 16 percent who wash their sheets monthly and 10 percent even less than once a month -- you might want to consider changing your bedding more frequently.

Now, I fail in the sheet area, always have, but after this I'm gonna try to do it at least once a month now. As for the pillows... that freaked me out even more because isn't everyone's favorite pillow the one they've had forever?

Needless to say I just changed my sheets and hurled them and my pillows into the laundry area. I'm MacGyver-ing my own stuffing for clean pillow cases. Yes, I know I'm being paranoid. I am also buying new pillows to bring to my apartment this week.

After MUCH TRAVAIL I have finally managed to acquire AND upload a JaeMin moodtheme *dances* Much thanks to lefty_215 who re-uploaded it so I could have it!!!

Also, because I am insane, this VeggieTales Silly Song has been stuck in my head. Ukulele Karaoke with Bob. The insanity may come in handy though if anyone is depressed by my Dresden Files vid. Or...you could just watch Hi Ya Ya. That always makes me smile.

I would like to start out saying that this is NOT MY FAULT. I blame Sarah, Anthy, Ra, and Mia. And most especially Hero JaeJoong. For being so goddamn pretty. Now that that's settled.

I'm...slowly becoming obsessed with a Korean band. This is bad as I do not know Korean or Japanese, which they also do stuff in. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE SAYING/SINGING. T_T Which means I am demoted to staring pathetically at them as they sing beautifully/move/talk. Or trying to sing along and failing miserably. >_<. Okay, so there are some subtitled things but...still.

This band is DBSK. Learn more via Wiki Not only do they sing and dance but they also do fan service. They play up to the fact that people slash them. (Which really, if you've seen anything, they're very touchy. ie right here)

It's getting bad. Pics. Vids. Songs. FanFic.

YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW. You don't....even... KNOW!

*/channeling Dane Cook*

Thus. I must PicSpam you. Of Hero JaeJoong because he owns my soul. Don't worry it's all links. Um, but don't go hotlinking...cos that's just not right. Save them. Like I have. >_<;; Er...Pg-13?

( Cut for your sanity )

( And here's some vids )

So yes. Welcome to my world. And now I'm stuck trying to figure out what icon to move because... I think I need one of DBSK. I'll figure something out.

So today was fun in the sense that I couldn't breathe out of my nose. Ugh. Still not sure whether this is allergies, a cold, sinus crap or some combonation of the three. >.<;; But I deposited a check that was about 1/3 larger than I expected it to be, so yay!

Also, I blame edana_ni_emer for having the "Baby Got Back - Gilbert & Sullivan Style" stuck in my head the whilst working. Eerily similar to when I had bakerybard's "All Alone" vid stuck in my head on Monday.

I really shouldn't have put YouTube on the bookmark!bar. It's just not good. I mean, granted there are glorious things on YouTube but 80% of it is utter crack. And that whole converter thing? Yeah, I've "converted" a bunch of YouTube Vid Crack. But I don't regret converting some of the awesome ones. ^_^.

Just to torment and scar show you some of what I've been enjoying...
( Follow the cut if you dare... )

No, seriously, For. The. WIN.

Met up with Heather at the Art Fair in Minneapolis, pretending that I actually knew my way around the other twin city. Oops. XD.

But it was way fun, even tho we only ended up hanging out for like, 30-40 minutes XD.

We browsed around various arty-shop things and talking about Harry/Bob, writing, Plaude, and being dorky. ^^

So yes, luckily for the world we weren't together long enough to wreak total havoc, but there were pictures taken! PROOF OF CONTACT, I tell you, PROOF! I foresee a project in the future...

So, we all know I'm on crack but some how this just really amused me from http://www.subreality.com /glossary/terms.htm#W:

Woobie

2. in fandom and fanfiction circles,

“A character, usually male and good-looking, who is constantly be in a state of woe, misery, or sheer unlucky suckitude to a degree that fans want to figuratively scoop him up and cuddle him. . This causes friction when fans of normally “unwoobie” characters (ie. Lucius Malfoy) go wildly out of the canon way to concoct ways to make him/her a woobie and thus deserving of much mooshy sympathy.”

"sheer unlucky suckitude" bwahaha that phrase FTW.

So. Lots of fun things going on.

Firstly, Yay! for people liking my slightly-cracky rpg icons.

Secondly...yesterday sucked. I mean.. everything after like, Noon my-time sucked. The cleaning sucked a lot. I HATE DUST. And LAUNDRY.

Thirdly. Library HATES Y!M. So not cool. So...no scening with peeps who only have yim/msn unless I'm at Dad's randomly.

Fourthly. WTF, MY FAMILY? My awesome Bi Uncle (who Maestro ingeniously noted sounds kinda like bionicle heehehe) had this major falling out with his dad/my grandpa. As in he wants nothing to do with him and doesn't want to be around him, get money, ANYTHING.

Aaaaand they're supposed to be going to my brother's graduation. Riiiight. Not together, they aren't. It seemed like Sam was just going to stay up in Fargo but...not sure. I mean he was planning on going down and hanging out. But now with the whole losing his job/falling out I don't know WTF IS GOING ON. And I'm pissed. I love him, he's a great guy we bond over the bi-ness and stuff. So...GAH.

Fifthly. I totally have allergies. To what I'm not sure but probably the same stuff my mom has. Wonder if that includes the cockroaches because that was hilarious. Pity she didn't watch Heroes that'd make it more amusing for her. So that's like...grass which I already knew... (I was the freaky kid who ran around in socks during the summer when everyone else was barefoot...) Dust, prolly. DAMN YOU, DUST. Um... maybe maple trees and whatever that other really common plant-thing was? Which leads into...

Six. SINUS HEADACHES ARE MADE OF LAME EVIL. That's self-explanatory, truly.

Seven. I want my internet-haven room. I cleaned it, I changed the sheets on the bed, I Swiffer'd the ceiling... I want my net back. And it's only been one day. :(

Blaming this on the other member of the Evil Crack Duo. Just going backwards through my f-list seeing if I've missed things. I'm not surprised by the result. XD

So I finally got around to watching "Less Than Three" on YouTube. Then I made icons.

15 lj/Y!M-sized and 1 AIM-sized. Don't hate me because it's addicting.

(1) (3) (5)
( Meet me here on IRC, L-O-L-O-L )

Yay, I can try posting on various things. I've only got like 39 icons made 0.o

It was a tough choice of which icon to use for my lj right now. Really it was. But 'So easy' was just on my mind so there ya go.
