Ah, well, another week down. This weekend will be much more low-key than the last one- mostly cleaning, maybe some cooking, and for goodness' sake finally writing the other auction fic I've been avoiding. *sigh* If you're reading this, foxtoast, I haven't forgotten! I just need a decent muse to descend and give me a little direction. I dunno, have any ( Read more... )

work, tv, fringe

Yay money! Money is awesome. I have yet to get my check for the past two weeks, so I fully appreciate how awesome money is. *laughs*

I was having that "Oh. I used to think this show was good, right?" reaction to The Good Wife a couple of episodes ago, but then it got suddenly awesome, so don't lose hope. Sometimes with a new season they just need a couple (or ten) not so awesome episodes to ramp up to the really good stuff. On the other hand, I have never seen an episode of Fringe so I am no help to you.

Hah, did you submit that macro to Failblog.org? Or I'm sure there's a Shakespeare Macro community on lj. The hilarity must be shared!

Woo! Aw, I'm sure once the paperworks gets sorted out they'll pay you what you've earned. Hey, don't you feel like Wendy, waiting for her first Middlecheck? I doubt they'll buy you a smart car though.

Maybe. It's just... we're building up to the big climax, and I just don't like how they're going about it. They're really embracing some cliches that they had previously avoided. Here's hoping they do something new with said cliches, now that they're here.

Heh, maybe I'll try to get it on So Much Pun later. I'm hungry and tired right now and not inclined to be proactive.

Well, the problem is that it's AmeriCorps Headquarters in Indiana that's actually paying me, and they're more disorganized than I am, so...things take a while. I may not be getting a smart car, but one of these days, for sure, I'm getting my new/old car! One of these days...

Heh, I actually kind of think that's what's happening with Community. I mean...I still like it but...eh.

Psh, hungry and tired are boring!

Hm, unfortunate. Well, yay new/old car! Eventually!

Really? Well, I guess since I'm a n00b I can't really discern stuff like that yet. Have you heard about the upcoming Abed-centric Pulp Fiction episode airing on my birthday? I'm pretty psyched about that.

Agreed! Doesn't make them easier to ignore.

It's gold and pretty and I'm sad about my old blue car probably going away.

Maybe I just really don't like Jeff/Annie and the fact that they've been teasing it annoys me. Apparently I'm one of those fangirls. *laughs* I haven't read any spoilers about Community in ages, but that does sound awesome! I want to see more Abed/Troy/Britta/Shirley stories.

Psh. I don't believe that at all.

Aw, well, at least you get to say goodbye.

Hm, I kind of doubt they'll go for Jeff/Annie, they seem to recognize that Annie is pretty freaking young for him, though.. they did win that E! Best TV Couple contest. I guess if they do hook up we'll know how much they cater to fan service. But, yeah, hopefully they won't focus too much on Jeff or Annie when they have so many other awesome characters.

Well I've taken care of the hungry bit, so that's good.

That is true.

I don't think they'll actually go with it for really, but they'll keep teasing it and that annoys me.

Hooray! I'm watching V for Vendetta and enjoying young Dominic very much.

A year ago today I lost my first car.

Well, I like the chemistry between Jeff and Annie enough to not be bothered too much. But I hope they don't buy into fan service.

Ooh, V for Vendetta, that would be nice to watch. I've gotten sucked into The Rachel Maddow Show, though. Maybe tomorrow, when I'm done cleaning and should be writing.

Seriously, that long ago? Wow.

I don't know, I think both Annie and Jeff are like my least favorite characters on that show. Which doesn't mean I don't like them, just not as much as everyone else, and the more time they spend on them (due to the fanservice), the more annoyed I get.

I'm having a good time with it. Tomorrow I will actually try to get writing done, after I give blood in the morning. Productivity! I hope to at least finalize my auction fanmixes.

Yup. Weird, huh?

Again, I'd say I'm too much of a n00b to have an opinion one way or another.

Hee, I just voted in Rachel's text poll! Yay for giving blood, and writing! Seriously, I'm dying for some new Plaude (if that is what you're working on). I'm sick of re-reading my old crap.

Very weird. It kind of freaks me out to realize how long I've been at this livejournal thing.

*laughs* Well, you know me. I have very strong opinions about things that really don't matter that much, but by god I will argue them to the death.

Yay! Hah, well, I could finish a Plaude thing. Or a just-Claude thing. Or what I should do, start my auction fic. I'll probably do one of the first things.

lotus0kid March 5 2011, 02:43:02 UTC
Hee, yeah, my four year Plaude anniversary is coming up in a few months. It's.. pretty much my longest relationship.

We-ell, I'm afraid you won't find much to butt your head against with me.

I'd love to write some Plaude, but I really can't do it before I write the auction fic. (Ooh, poll results... aw man, my choice didn't win.)

visiblemarket March 5 2011, 02:45:11 UTC
LOL. Yeah, same. Probably the healthiest one I'll ever have.

Sad. I've been trying to stay off sites where I'd actually get more argument, because they just drive me crazy and depress me. But I miss doing long posts of meta about stuff.

Hah, so you'll tempt me into ignoring my own commitments instead, then? Tsk, tsk. (Aw, what was the poll about?)

Reply

lotus0kid March 5 2011, 02:52:38 UTC
Well, we know a good thing when we find it.

I wouldn't mind long posts of meta about stuff, just don't expect me to fight you over it. ;)

Yeah, I've gotten that desperate. (Heh, about how embarrassing Mike Huckabee is. As in, "What's more embarrassing: Huckabee denouncing Natalie Portman for being pregnant (my choice- god what a dick move), Huckabee shilling his book in a super tacky way, or Huckabee being referred to as a "vibrator" of the Republican party?")

This is true. Oh Plaude, you made/make me so happy.

Hah, I may be doing a roundup, "My Thoughts on V For Vendetta", post. Which I always seem to do whenever I watch that movie. It's just so full of stuff!

Well, I guess it's a compliment. Hah, did the vibrator one win?

Mm, we are blessed.

Neat! Speaking of movies, Peacock is on Instant if you still wanted to watch it. It's quite a picture, I'd say.

It didn't, actually! The book thing did.
