I haven't fallen off the face of the earth, I promise :)
Summer reading club is OVER as of tomorrow and my life will go back to a normal pace. In other words, YAYYYYYYYYYY! I love my job, and I love summers, but I am very glad that they only last two months because I am majorly pooped out by the end.

I have been DEVOURING the Sookie books. I'm all caught up on the True Blood tv show (very much enjoying that still), and my neighbor was kind enough to loan me books 1-8. I've read the first 6 in the last 7 days and I'm pretty sure I'll have blown through the rest of them by next week. There is nothing like the rush of getting sucked into a really really good series. So good!
In addition to True Blood, I am currently watching and fangirling Leverage, Warehouse 13 and So You Think You Can Dance. I love Hardison/Eliot/Parker, I love the Bones-like snark and tension of the leads in Warehouse 13, and I loooooooove good dance choreography like nothing else so I have really been enjoying SYTYCD this season.

I guess it's about time that I confess that the finale pretty much killed my fannish interest in BSG. I'm still watching vids as they pop up on my flist, but my desire to read fic or create anything fannish of my own for BSG has waned. The finale was an incredibly disappointing resolution for pretty much all of my favorite characters and, if I'm honest with myself, I'm not over that. When I rewatch the series, I'm pretty sure that I'm mainly going to watch seasons 1-3 and revel in the awesomeness of My Girl in her prime.
This doesn't mean that I don't adore the hell out of all my BSG flisters, and I'm still sticking around to see where all of our future interests take us :) *hugs to all*

I am more excited for Supernatural to come back in the fall than ever.
I was once overwhelmed by the size and scope of SPN fandom, especially after the coziness and familiarity of VM and BSG fandoms, but I am REALLY enjoying playing in the fandom now.
The
spn_j2_bigbang entries this summer have been awesome, and I have had so much fun devouring good RPF and good vids/art. Also been enjoying the hell out of rec'ing for
crack_impala too.
As much wank and weirdness as SPN fandom has sometimes, I am really happy hanging out and really enjoying getting to know y'all better :)

Also really excited for Glee, Bones, Dollhouse and Castle this fall! I've got all the premieres marked on my calendar like the fanglorious nerd that I am. (And, of course, I will be excited when Lost decides to show up on my tv again in early 2010).
So many awesome people going to be on Dollhouse this fall! We already have Tahmoh, but adding in Bamber AND Hogan? I just love that Whedon is a huge nerd himself :)

Enough tl;dr for now! There is a ginormous vids/bigbang/fanart recs post to follow shortly, wheeee!
