February sort of kind of pretty much sucked. I don't want to be negative Nancy because there's really good tv to discuss and that's so much more important than life but I had every intention of actually keeping my resolution and posting more. But the apartment has proved tricky for many, many reasons but the most important would be the lack of ( Read more... )

Hey girlie! I was wondering what happened to you after you asked about beta-ing. And bah, I wish you had just been busy :(

So far, the cost has been $2475. Insurance covered $200 for the tooth pulling. WOW.

Ugh. Insurance is truly the biggest ass-raping industry. Strangely enough, my sister went through all this dental trauma during February as well(she hasn't been to a dentist since before she was pregnant with Paige) and the costs just keep piling and piling. I keep thinking I should've been a dentist, but I have a weird thing about having my hands in other people's mouths... ;)

I spent the weekend rewriting Tee's fic and will hopefully spend this weekend recreating the end of MSS. And I have that shit backed up every where now.

OH GOD PAIN! When my first laptop completely crapped out on me and I lost the opening chapter to a story I was writing(and i had got the opening just perfect too!), i could NOT touch it for at least a year, so good for you for being able to jump back on both those horses. I still have the unfinished version of the last chapter of MSS if that would help. I'm sure what you lost had more to it, but if you want this, let me know :)

Oh and I'm still all for the beta-ing, so send it when you're ready.

As far as TV, last night was the first episode of Heroes that I really liked. I've been sort of drifitng in and out of the show and it had not at all grabbed me. But I wish they would do this from now on. Not jump back and forth to different stories in one episode, but focus some character in one storyline. That works much better. Also, I guess Claire is one of the few characters I like. And Matt.

The Black Donnellys... I'll give it another shot. But the pilot didn't impress, so... We will see :)

How have you been feeling about The Office? I finally jumped on that bandwagon, did I miss you?

*cuddles you* Always good to see you around, girlie.

Your icon? IS SO AWESOME.

Dental insurance is ridiculous. I'm like I'm so glad I pay for it when wait I still have to PAY FOR IT!!! This whole experience has just been GRRR on a constant basis.

and i had got the opening just perfect too!
That is the absolute worst!

I waited a couple of days - until it seemed like I definitely couldn't save it and I calmed down because I was very sad and angry - but I didn't want to forget anything and I'm almost back to where I finished before. I'm trying to see the positive in it. That I'm tweeking some things that I might not have been too crazy about or whatever.

MSS kills me, though. Because I had just what you have and on the flash it was done. Maybe a few things here and there, but essentially DONE.

You might get Tee's fic before MSS but thanks!

OH and thank you for the Valentine's gifty. That was too sweet of you :)

This week's Heroes was definitely the best of the bunch. I adore Claire and I hope that they continue to focus on characters like they did this week instead of shoving them all in there like they usually do. Granted, I don't usually have too many problems with the show but sometimes it gets a little too draggy when focusing on certain characters.

I did read that you weren't that thrilled. I think because my expectations were kind of low and I didn't expect to like it and it really did turn out in a way I didn't expect, I liked that. For me now, I hope that they work on keeping that good.

Well, you know me, I don't think you're the devil because you don't like a show. I mean, really, you were actually very smart to not like Veronica Mars. ;)

I still love The Office beyond words. It makes my week. I'm hoping now with Roy finding out (finally!), that we can start moving on the whole J/P/R/K thing because it is going on forever. I think I just love it so much that I find it hard to pick on anyone or anything about the show. It's my new Buffy. I just love it (too much, probably) and I don't want to be negative. But, for me, there really isn't anything negative to say.

I am so happy that you watch it now. Did you create your voodoo doll for Karen yet? :)

Looking forward to whatever comes :)

Hee, you are very welcome.

I think because my expectations were kind of low and I didn't expect to like it and it really did turn out in a way I didn't expect, I liked that.

Oh, I don't think my expectations were high, especially since I knew Paul Haggis was behind it and I'm not really a fan of him. It just didn't work for me for a bunch of reasons. But, like I said, I definitely want to give it another shot since usually the pilot is different than the series.

It's my new Buffy. I just love it (too much, probably) and I don't want to be negative. But, for me, there really isn't anything negative to say.

Well, finding negatives or just spending time analyzing it doesn't mean I don't love it. I did that plenty with Buffy(still do) and with movies that are my favorites(you should see what I could do to Say Anything...), but this doesn't mean I don't think it's awesome. If a show is crap, it doesn't make my brain churn up anything. But because this show is so good, it makes me want to dissect it.

Nah, Miss Passive-Aggressive is doing just fine all by her ownself ;)
