this is not the droid you're looking for

001. So I don't understand Tumblr. I admit it. I have no idea what the point is or what it's for. Is it just like a blog? Even if someone were to explain it to me, I can't promise I wouldn't continue to be confused.

002. I still haven't found any books in present tense. You Shall Know Our Velocity turned out to be just plain old past tense. Though, I'm still thinking of reading it. I also got this book Rendezvous in Black which looks like it might be a fun read.

003. I was working on this Dollhouse video about two months ago and just gave up. I don't know if I'll ever finish it or any other vid, ever again. It's sad. But possibly true.

004. Regarding Dollhouse. I'm slightly disappointed in the season thus far. I keep waiting for this to turn into a full-on ensemble and it's still just the Echo show. And call me crazy, but the Echo show mostly bores me. (As does the Paul show.) I almost think I wish TSCC would have been renewed instead. It always seemed like a toss-up, but not right now.

005. I really really like Eastwick. Well, maybe I just like Stars Hollow. Haha. Either way, I'm having fun watching this show.

006. I may have signed up for apocabigbang which is just the most hilarious thing ever. I haven't picked a fandom yet, and it's possible I'll chicken out at the last second. But yeah, it's a thought.

007. Stargate Universe. I don't hate it. I am curious to see more. I enjoyed the first three episodes. I like a lot of the characters. I'm just confused and intrigued enough to make this a regular thing.

008. I don't know if I've even talked about it on my LJ before but I was watching The Big Bang Theory at the end of last season. I think I've officially decided that I am going to give it up this season though. I'm just not laughing. Never was much of a sitcom person. Though Community and Modern Family are definitely making me laugh a lot this season.

009. I watch too much TV.

010. I know I promised/discussed a "life" post, but this is just as good right?

001 Never heard of it.

002 Don't remember if I ever read a present tense book (I've seen some fanfic in the present tense though). Do you know GrammarGirl's blog? She wrote an article about present tense books. Scroll to the bottom for a short, incomplete list of popular novels in the present tense. http://grammar.quickanddirtytips.com/present-tense-novel.aspx

004 I may have to agree that Dollhouse 2 has been really slow. In retrospect the pacing is just as slow as the first season started. But after the fast changing latter episodes, we hoped they could keep the momentum. I heard that Dollhouse had an half-season guarantee BUT a cut in budget; I wonder if that short-changed the rest of the cast? Except for Echo, Paul, & Topher, the rest has have their hours cut short. There are episodes when Sierra, Victor, and even BOYD don't appear :( I wish they'd get to the business of the Dollhouse-mythology arc but alas, it still seems engagement of the week blahs.

005 Stars Hallow? Like Eastwick might crossover with Gilmore Girls???

006 apocabigbang sounds interesting - I haven't heard of it before. Might be a gentler alternative to NanoWriMo.

009. NO! really? (Well, guilty here too!)

Oh thank you so much for that link! You're the first person that's been able to help me on my quest! That's just what I was looking for. And apparently I've read two of those, Fight Club and The Time Traveller's Wife. And I think there was another one someone mentioned (not on the list) that I've also read. Ptsch, way to pay attention KC!

005. No, but that could be cool. They totally film on the Stars Hollow set though.

006. Definitely gentler.
