snogged: ([Starship] Kick It Up A Notch)
[personal profile] snogged


Brian Holden is a SILB (Starkid I'd Like to Boink). That said, he didn't really rise to this status until Starship came out. I mean, I loved him as Lupin in AVPS. I thought he played drunk!guy well and he was really quite funny. But as Junior, especially when he broke out the pink sunglasses during Kick It Up A Notch - Reprise, I felt my insides melt.

As a side note, this melty effect did not happen during Brian's portrayal of Flopsy the Vagina in Me and My Dick, but I did enjoy what he brought to his portrayal of the character. The pearl necklace (*snort*) was a nice touch.



A stream of recent posts on Tumblr inspired me to place Boy Meets World in my Netflix queue. The first disc of Season 1 came yesterday and I watched the first four episodes. Oh happy '90's nostaligia! I'm going to finish the disc tonight and get it in the mail asap to ensure quick turn-around on disc 2.

In other news, I was contacted by a place I'd applied to back in early May. Apparently, they'd done first and second interviews for the position already, had been left with some concerns, and decided to explore their "maybe" pile. I was one of three applicants that had made that pile.

To their credit, they're willing to offer full-time and benefits, but the commute was just too much (~2 hours one way), especially since I've got a lock with the Pauquette Center now. Also, their ideal candidate was someone who's close to licensure or someone who is licensed and right now, I'm neither.

That said, the lady really seemed to be taken with me so she's keeping my resume on file. Apparently, they do work closer to where I live so there might be a possibility for a different position somewhere down the road.

I can safely say I'm not too bummed though...because I report to the Pauquette Center in less than two days!!

Even though you are already with Pauquette, it must be nice to know other people want you...and with good reason. You're awesome!

Well, I'm not sure I'd call it a job offer so much as it was a phone interview. But yeah, it's nice to finally feel wanted after waiting so long.

I know, right?

I'd be far more likely to entertain the thought of switching out of Pauquette if the drive was a 1/2 hour or less.

Oh boy meets world! I used to watch that show all the time years ago.

So did I.
It was my favorite part of TGIF.

It makes me quite happy to be able to marathon the show in the order it was intended. :)

That'd be cool if this new place has something for you closer to home that won't interfere with Pauquette.

Even though you're hired, it's nice to feel wanted! Right when I thought Starbucks wasn't going to take me, I applied other places and I had callbacks for interviews for them sounding really interested - it's a nice change!

Oh, Brian Holden! I fell in love with him the instant he showed up as Lupin. The fact that he strongly reminded me of an old crush gone by did not hurt one bit. I am just really impressed with how he'd done a lot of the behind-the-scenes work and the writing before he got to really take the stage (though I appreciated his turn on "Little White Lie"), and of course I had no idea he had such singing talent until "Kick It Up a Notch" happened--swoon!

I still need to check out MAMD-- my first attempt was diverted by roommates and I never got around to viewing it past the first two minutes! So trying again should be a must.

I'm glad more organizations are recognizing your awesomeness, even if it doesn't necessarily lead somewhere immediately. Looking forward to reading about your experiences with Pauquette coming up!

Brian Holden is really wonderful.

I hope you get to watch MAMD soon.

I'm sure I'll have plenty to share.
