*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:

It's late night in the hanger deck, and he is not alone.

Why do our bodies do this to us? Don't they know we need to sleep in on Sundays as some kind of cosmic balance-outer for the rest of the week? Hahaha, Re: The fic. Well it's a bit smutty and a bit angsty and a bit hopeful. So not unlike my other crap. I hope you can appreciate it even if you don't know who any of the folks are!

Yeah I haven't WATCHED all of those yet, just downloaded most of them. They're waiting for me to get around to them!

Dirty, Sexy, Money is so worth checking out.

Exactly, although I did sleep until 12 on Saturday.

I figured it would be smutty/angsty, which is why I plan on reading it. I like that combo.

Still, that's a lot of TV. I watch like 4 shows a week.

I was wondering about Dirty Sexy Money. Guess I'll have to tune in. What day is it on anyways? Wednesdays?

This is quite true, though I feel my list of there is vastly unrepresentative of what I actually watch. My regs are: SPN, LOST, BSG and Big Love on HBO

I try to catch the Office but you know I'll be the first to admit that I have been a really bad viewer over the past year - I've probably seen less than half of s3. *hides*

So pretty much, right now, with SPN starting up this week. I've got one show. All the other crap is my attempt to find something ELSE to watch while waiting for BSG and LOST to return hahah. And to give at least the pilots of some of the new shows a look, see what I'll be missing if I don't watch.

Pretty certain that Tell Me You Love Me, Bionic Woman, and Moonlight aren't anything I'll be watching again anytime soon. And that's my second reason I haven't really been getting "hyped" about these new shows. I'm either afraid that A) they'll suck. Or B) They'll be canceled. At least Dirty, Sexy, Money managed to surpass A. We'll see if it surpasses B.

I really really like Jericho, of what I've seen (2 eps) so I'll try to catch up on that, but it also doesn't come back to TV until next year. (A gift, in and of itself. It was apparently brought back from cancellation!)

See mine are GA, Lost, Bones, and The Office. Everything else kind of falls to the wayside unfortunately.

I've seen most of Season 3 but missed the latter half of Season 2. The timeslot sucks for me.

Bionic Woman was okay, but I won't be returning anytime soon. Moonlight looks to much like Angel for my tastes. Tell Me You Love Me I never even got around to watching.

Jericho I never tried to watch because CBS cancelled it and then brought it back but it's really only a matter of time before it disappears again I have a feeling, and I hate getting attached in cases like that.

Dude I even LOOKED THIS UP and forgot to say it.


Dirty, Sexy, Money is on ABC at 10 PM (EST) on Wednesday nights.

lol, I do that all the time. Forget the most important part.

Thanks though, I'll definitely look into that. I was only using that timeslot for Haunted reruns on SCI-Fi so that works for me.

You know, I have NEVER watched that show.

Seriously? You really should, it's not half bad.
