.097 - Well, don't tell us what we can't do.


Four days guys!
I can't believe it's ending.

Vid swiped from [livejournal.com profile] jenthegypsy. If you go to the youtube page they offer downloads for the mp3 version of the song.

*WHOOPS! Sorry about the tag mix-up. I forgot to type the hyphen. *headdesk* I think I got to it in time though. As soon as I saw it I fixed it. Saved it. And then came back to type this. Hopefully no one saw that who hadn't already seen the show.

→ Just so you sneaksters know. Only like two of you who commented to this fic meme have actually re-posted it [or had already posted it]. Tsk tsk. I guess you don't really want fic after all...

→ I spent two entire days at work making an 11 minute sampler song mix for my boss. Far, far less gratifying than actual vidding, by the way. But still an interesting experiment. I think she had no idea it would take me more than ten minutes to put together. I think she expected that I was going to go into my magical cabinet and just snap my fingers and it would appear.

→ Also? This:

from here.

→ Have I mentioned that I really, really like this show?

Audio may not be exactly in sync. I can't tell. Vegas, why so buggy?

Holy shit guys, I think everyone on my flist agrees about an episode of LOST. This is the first time ever.

I haven't watched and... I'm pretty much afraid to now.

Anyone wanna spoil me with the key points in the comments?

→ Just popping by the public library on my little mini vacation. Unless I lose my mind completely I should be home tomorrow sometime.

→ How crazy was Lost last night huh? Gonna have to re-watch that one to let it sink in fully. Literally halfway through there was a door-locking emergency that didn't end until after the show and I was distracted. Saw everything that happened, but couldn't fully absorb it.

→ The fish are not biting, for those curious.

Holy shit!
CTV Promo for this week's LOST. I strongly urge you not to hit the play button if you generally don't watch promos for upcoming eps.

thoughts )

Also, my computer is currently installing the 41st of 58 updates. I am crossing my fingers that it lives through the next restart.

Snagged from [livejournal.com profile] jenthegypsy who found it on Damon Lindelof's twitter this morning:
We wrapped the Pilot on my birthday. Bender called at 6 AM to say the finale is completed exactly six years later. The circle closes.

As many issues as I've had with this show through the years, hearing that news kinda just makes me want to cry.

→ My fic is prophetic? hahaha, not really - marginally irrelevant spoilers for lost )

→ I was supposed to write tonight. That didn't happen. Maybe in the morning before work. I will set my calendar.

→ I am coming down with a cold. Started with a sore throat two nights ago and then again last night. It is now migrating to other areas. Sneezing and upper congestion is commencing, this will probably end up lasting all week, moving from place to place until it is deep in my lungs and I have filled an entire garbage bag will used tissues. FUN!

→ Why does watching Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution just make me want to eat everything in my fridge? He keeps saying "tasty, wholesome, fresh meals!" Etc. It's like not-so-subliminal messaging. My stomach is listening, Jamie, although I'm sure it wasn't your goal to get me to eat more.

→ I watched this BBC 3 special about tanning under tanning beds/lamps etc. Holy yuck! I don't feel it was the most informative program ever, but it was certainly enough to scare you. I don't know all the ins and outs of it and how damaging it really is, but why risk it, I say? Here's some info about what the World Health Organization says about tanning beds.

→ So, Ugly Betty. We have bid adieu. And she will go right up there with Buffy, Veronica, Starbuck, & others as one of the great female characters and role models of my tv-watching career. I wish I could really sum up why this show was so remarkable and important, despite its goofiness, and how there really is nothing else like it on TV right now. Which is kinda sad, really. But I don't know how to do it. I don't even have an icon to prove my adoration. So for now I will just say goodbye. Goodbye Betty! Goodbye Suarez family! Goodbye Marc & Amanda! Goodbye Wilhelmina and your craziness! Goodbye Meads! (Especially Claire!) If I could, I would kiss them all.

→ Life Unexpected also ended. Renewal is still up in the air. Season one. Ah, it was crazy! It was beautiful! I won't give away anything when I say that this show really came out of nowhere and rocketed to the top of my "must-watch" list every week. It was just delightful and I love the characters and their building relationships and the well-done focus on minor characters and the setting and the dialogue and the fun and the melodrama. There is no reason not to be watching this show, flist. I just hope it gets a second season cause I'm dying to see these characters continue to live. They're too adorable not to.

→ Justified. Um, I think I'm two eps behind. Whoops!

→ Parenthood. First episode I was not sold. Liked the second ep a ton better, and now I can officially say that I really like this show. I've got to say that I think the cast is really great, including the younger members. I still don't particularly like Peter Krause's character, but I guess with a character list that long there's bound to be someone. I love the opening credits and just think they're doing a great job all around.

→ I tried the first two eps of Miami Medical and was surprisingly charmed by them. Not planning on attending regular service just yet, it's too soon to tell, but I can think of worse things to watch. [Much worse.]

[livejournal.com profile] gigglemonster made this awesome themed wallpaper and accompanying fanmix for Jack/Sawyer/Claire called We Rob Banks. Awesome. Gorgeous. And sexy. I am hoping to write those three again very very soon and this just made me remember [not that I'd forgotten] why I love them so much. (That and re-watching all of her Jawyercita, Jack/Claire and Jack/Sawyer vids multiple times.) I'm feeling very optimistic.

[livejournal.com profile] slybrunette literally just informed me that I won this month's best het fic [livejournal.com profile] lost_fic_award for And Life is Wine! I am beyond shocked. I never expect to win anything, let alone an LFA! So thank you to anyone who voted for my fic.

→ The list of shows I'm behind on gets longer every day. No wonder. I keep trying new shows and actually really enjoying them. Perhaps this is due to my desperate desire to find some new shows I like that don't get fucking canceled thank-you-very-much!
