Three things that just made me cry:

1. THE NEW MERLIN EPISODE (2x08). That - that was. That was exquisite storytelling. "Merlin?!" you might be thinking. "No, she must have the wrong show!" OH NO, MY FRIENDS. That was an EXQUISITE HOUR OF TELEVISION. Bradley James, I take my hat off to you sir. Unbelievable. And Colin Morgan, and Anthony Head. ( Read more... )

I've been wanting to do another music video for a long time, but when I switched to Mac I lost my Premiere and all the surrounding tools that I had built up, so it's been hard to even consider tackling all that again. But I think this is something I'd love to do during my (very short) summer, and I finally have an idea I love ( Read more... )

Ugh, I'm so tired I almost can't see straight. X___x Have arrived safely in Salt Lake City, many hours ago after 12 hours of travel. (There are no airports within a decent distance, and I had a connection. Blah.) Me and my fellow chemists from F&M (we're at the American Chemical Society conference, if I didn't make that clear) went out to dinner ( Read more... )

I miss Kara Thrace. I just keep thinking about her, about my girl. Her laughter, her fire, her doubts, her vulnerability, her heart, her passion, her light. I miss her like she was mine.

Goodbye Bill Adama, Laura Roslin, Helo and Sharon Agathon, Saul and Ellen Tigh, Gaius Baltar, Caprica, Leoben, Sam Anders, Galen Tyrol.

I'll miss you. :(

I've just started the first half of the last episode of BSG. I can tell it's going to rip my heart out. Ten minutes in and it kind of has already. I just wanted to flail about one particular thing.

( Spoilers for the first 10 minutes )

I have arrived safe and sound in Ann Arbor! I was ushered here in a swank black sedan from a limo service that I shared with a nice girl and my friend Andy, who goes to college with me and is also visiting UM this weekend. The hotel is lovely and classy, complete with old heavy keys for the rooms. The welcome pack is AMAZING - a white tote bag with ( Read more... )

Gerard: forever my favorite geek.

Mikeyway: forever my second favorite geek.

Grad school: terrifying and thrilling all at once. I found a guy I REALLY want to work with at Michigan. His research is into new ways of tackling neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimers. Amazing. (Monica and other geeks on my flist, you should check out his website ( Read more... )

Wow, I am just bowled over by the birthday wishes! Thanks everyone ( Read more... )

So you don't have your birthday on your userinfo, but I have sneakily deduced from shotgunteacup's happy birthday post that it is your birthday, today or yesterday or something, miss Matilda! So... HAPPY BIRTHDAY erode!!! I am so happy to have met you, utterly by chance as the MCR gods smiled upon us. I know getting to the concert and getting tickets was a bit of a ( Read more... )
