Three good things!

1. I have a Cara Cara orange. Om nom nom.
   
2. I read Crossing The Tracks, which after three deeply disappointing reads was more than worth it, oh my goodness. Women and friendships and family and mourning and survival and ahhhh, feelings. So many feelings. Currently reading the second Incorrigible Children of Ashton Place book, which a ( Read more... )

A couple of recs! By burntcopper, Putting The Natives At Ease, a Narnia fic from the POV of the Pevensies' parents.Everyone's children came back from the country changed. They were older, for a start. Some of them were wilder, some had no manners, some had been turned into country children with not a trace of London in them, complete with accent. The Tovey ( Read more... )

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: inlovewithnight WROTE ZHAO/ZUKO. IT IS SET DURING "SOUTHERN AIR TEMPLE". IT IS EVERYTHING I WANT FROM THIS PAIRING. Okay, like, what little fic I have found for it just presents it as flat-out rape, and no, okay, no, Zuko beats Zhao in hand-to-hand combat, that is why I am okay with this pairing in my head, because Zuko is more than a ( Read more... )

i. SPICE GIRLS MUSICAL. I have nothing rational to say about this.

ii. I only saw half of Leverage last night because I was super-sleepy and finally gave up and went to bed at 10:30, figuring TNT would rerun it at some point (plus don't they usually stream it online after it airs?). What I saw, I liked!

iii. Since I finished Gossip Girl S1 and ( Read more... )

I was feeling cranky about fandom, but instead of me actually talking about that shit, have some things that have delighted me recently instead.

This isn't new or anything, but it has some gems in it and I felt the need to hear Patti coo over how the dude interviewing her is "just a baby", so here are some audio clips from an interview Rolling ( Read more... )

Hey, so remember after Zombieland when I was like "man, there needs to be hilarious gen set a few years down the line where Little Rock develops a crush on Tallahassee and everyone, including the two of them, is really uncomfortable with that situation"? BECAUSE austen DID, AND THEN SHE PROCEEDED TO WRITE IT. Except it wasn't really gen. It was AWESOME, ( Read more... )

i. So when Sam and Ruby have sex, fandom screams about how it's rape (and all the blame is only on her), but when ( spoilery for last night's episode )

i. I spent $60 on clothes today, but thank god for thrift stores, because I ended up getting a skirt, a pair of pants, two nice-ish dresses (ugh, I can't wait for it to get warm so I can wear this blue dress I got, because it's so pretty), and like four tops. I desperately needed more business-casual-type stuff to wear to work, and I've been really ( Read more... )

Oh my lordy-loo, I am trying not to capslock too much about it but honestly IDK if I can do that. Like, it took me ages after reading it to come up with anything beyond ":D :D :D :D ;_____;". That last bit is mostly because, well, it's a ( Read more... )
