Good Intentions Foiled by Beer and the Internet
So, I had the best of intentions of going home after work and cooking myself a healthy dinner and doing things like applying for jobs. What I actually did was have a couple of beers and curry (It had vegetables in my defence) with friends and came home and played around on the internet. Yeah. It's not that surprising.
I did however get some potentially good news about a possible extension of my contract at work, which would be nice, but I am remaining cautious about the whole thing.
In my playing around on the internet I did come across some things I wanted to rec.
First, this awesome amazing Wire vid. Beautiful Struggle by
sdwolfpup. It's a Carver vid to a Talib Kweli song and OMG I love it so much. It's just so amazingly done and Carver and Bodie and Randy! After watching it I was so disappointed that I don't own the show on DVD so I could re-watch some things. I loved Carver and his journey so much on the show and this vid really did it justice.
And then two H50 fics:
just your typical saturday (1030 words) by

Wherein there is Steve and Danny and a cat and it's a little crack-y but also so in character and adorable. Adored it.
Wish You Were Here (535 words) by

Gorgeous Steve and Catherine scene with beautiful imagery and I really love them.
And there was some sort of Avengers trailer, which totally contributed to me arriving later to work this morning than I had intended.
Pretty! Visually it looks goooood and hi there Loki, I am so glad you are back as the Big Bad for this movie (or is he?)
Almost all the dialogue was Tony snark and while I adore that (I mean, he's my favourite Avenger, for reasons I can never quite fathom), it seemed a little too much, but then it's only the first trailer and god RDJ is awesome in that role, so I can see why they'd use him so much.
I am also thinking happy Tony/Steve thoughts.
Good music choice too. Hi there Academy Award Winning Trent Reznor.
