+  The we_pimpin Fall Festival fics have been posted.  A lovely anon (I have a guess about who based on style and vocab) wrote "From Sea to Shining Sea" for me.  The amazing schlicky worked hard as coordinator, doling out assignments and wrangling late entries.

+  Saw "Contagion".  Great cast, a lot of very good acting. (It's petty, but I felt a kind of glee as Gwyneth Paltrow's character died early; her holier-than-thou attitude really irrirates me.)  As a non-science person, the virus hunt seemed realistic to me, at least much more realistic than the last virus hunt movie I saw -- "Outbreak", which had so many things wrong with it even from a lay perspective.

+  Finished reading three books:  New York to Dallas by JD Robb; Headhunters by Jo Nesbo; and Married with Zombies by Jesse Petersen.  Reviews may be forthcoming, or perhaps just drivebys.

-  There's a whole empty beach out there, including at least 200 square yards unoccupied to my right; why do random strangers set up within five feet of my umbrella?  Seriously?

~  I slept twelve hours last night.  Accidentally.  I laid down with a book at 7pm planning to read until 9pm (Law & Order: UK) and woke up at 1am then 5am then 7am for good.  I had no idea I was that tired.

stuff to watch, gk, fan fiction
