*yawn*

I didn't go to bed until very late last night so I have no clue what the heck I'm doing up at this hour.

I wrote bsg slash last night. Dayl asked me for some Tyrol/Anders slash like, I dunno, a month ago? I finally made good. But in the process of doing so I discovered that m/m slash in the bsg fandom is nearly non-existent. Not like Lost and sure as hell not like SPN (in which het is the dark horse). And if there it isn't, then I'm sure as hell having a hard time finding it! Very weird. It seems like a very slashable show to me. But then again it is an entirely different genre than I'm used to. Maybe the scifi buffs don't dig the man-love like the rest of...

WAIT. What am I saying?!?! The birth of slash lies in sci fi! Which makes this... all the more baffling. *scratches head*

Put up a shiny new header (Tom Waits! So much love!) and color scheme. I'm not sure I like it. I pulled them from the banner, but I'm not sure they work. Ugly? Yes? No? You tell me. I'll probably end up changing it anyway.

I was having a hard time getting stoked about the new TV season, but I'm coming around.

I quit Grey's last season mid-season and have no real interest in starting back up or watching Private Practice. I don't like Heroes or FNL. Though admittedly I haven't even given the latter a chance. Ugly Betty was another trial run that I ultimately couldn't watch despite finding it quirky and fun. And Lost and BSG don't come back until the winter.

Gave a watch (a while ago) to The Bionic Woman and pretty much the only part of it I enjoyed was Katee Sackhoff. It was a snoozer and unless it gets much better I probably won't be watching any more of it. I also watched Moonlight, which was a little too wobbly and shiny for me. It could get better, I suppose, but I'm not hedging any bets just yet.

Also checked out the first and fourth eps of Tell Me You Love Me on HBO. Still not quite sure what to make of it, even after the initial crazy-graphic-sex-omg-wtf-carmen!-shock wore off. I really like the Tim DeKay couple. And Penny is a bitch! Does Desmond know?

I haven't watched The Office yet. It's downloaded... it's just... waiting for me. I did have the chance to check out Dirty, Sexy, Money, and loved it to itty bitty bits. Not in an epic sort of way, but still. It is awesome!

Come to think of it, I've been on kind of a downloading spree these past couple days. I also grabbed Skins, which I know isn't new, but I have yet to watch any of the eps. I also DLed Reaper, Chuck and The Secret Diary of a Call Girl (Billie Piper, what?) And um, I also want to check out Pushing Daisies and finish watching Jericho, which so far I am in show-love with. But, sadly, I am having somewhat of a problem finding suitable downloads for it.

Holy wow. That's a lot of frakkin' TV that I'm going to have to drop out of school to watch. Haha.

And in conclusion... hello out there to [livejournal.com profile] jenthegypsy, [livejournal.com profile] halfdutch, [livejournal.com profile] amaleka_crone, [livejournal.com profile] jcathm, & [livejournal.com profile] sockkpuppett! Two of whom are from the bsg friending meme, by the way. Hi guys! I really should do a "new friends" meme or something. I have a hard enough time as it is keeping you people straight in my head!


Here be the fic:

Oh, the header looks very pretty, KC! Is this S1 or S2? I always have problems with my layouts; they come out not at all how I want them too. lol.

How was Reaper? I heard from quite a few people that they actually enjoyed it? When I saw the previews, it looked like a tacky version of Dead Like Me so I wasn't sure. And, hell yes, I'm definitely anticipating Pushing Daisies premiere - I think I've fallen in love with the premise alone. :D

And Penny is a bitch! Does Desmond know?

Lol. Kc, you crack me up! :) ♥

Oh! Mason/Daisy!

*takes a moment to appreciate the icon.

It's a s2 layout by... *looks it up* http://community.livejournal.com/interlinea/2394.html

I tweaked it a BIT so it looks better in firefox. The menu bar was off-kilter a bit before.

I haven't actually WATCHED all those shows up there yet. I've just downloaded them hahaha. So I'll let you know how Reaper is once I actually get the chance to watch it. Going to try to spend some time today on my History which I've been neglecting.

I miss DLM.

*sigh*

Oh, Mandy. I really should watch his other show Criminal Minds, but I just can't bring myself to do it. LOL.

Can you believe I still haven't finished watching DLM. I just want to savor it! :D And, I think I actually saw Mandy in the streets of Manhattan on Thursday. The guy I saw looked A LOT like him so I'm hoping it was him just because it would've been really cool. Also, I don't think Mandy's on Criminal Minds anymore ...

I just love saying Mandy. lol. Moving on...

You can download layout styles?! Whoa, I totally saved that link, KC. Definitely going to try it out sometime! Thanks!

Dude that is awesome!

Wait? He's not on that show anymore? Crazy.

I once heard this thing about him. There were these older women who used to shop at the store I worked in. They were like aristocrats, spent their youths traveling and had some serious potty mouth going on. They always told these crazy stories about their times in Europe when they were young and LA-DE-DAH. Very well-off family and I THINK they were a couple. I mean, they have husbands, but their husbands reside in another state in a house together, and they reside in this state in a house together. YEAH.

Anyway I think one day I mentioned Mandy and they just kind of chuckled (in a non-appreciative manner) and gave each other these looks like,... like they KNEW or something. Said some things that make him seem like he's some kind of big jerk or something. LOL I've always wondered about that.

Sorry for this totally random story!

By the way when I say older, they were like in their 70s. You have not lived until you have heard a couple of cynical 70-year-old women swearing like a couple'a sailors.

Lol. I just love the way you described those women. LA-DE-DAH!!!

*shrugs* Some people say celebrities are the sweetest, some say they're the meanest. I'd like to think they're human and they're a little bit of both...
