I'm watching the Sci-Fi Channel Dresden Files series from a few years ago for research purposes* and the plotting is pretty abysmal and really makes me appreciate Butcher's ability to write a story that makes sense but I kind of like how they've made Harry less of an obnoxious dick** and I think I'm falling in love with Paul Blackthorne don't you ( Read more... )

This evening, I was channel surfing and wound up watching "Glitter" for the first time since it aired.  Shortly thereafter, I was called to dinner, where I discovered that the padres had also been watching the episode in another room.  We had a brief but lively conversation/immature gigglefest about the episode while the hermana glared disapproval ( Read more... )

Of the many, many, many things I could have stayed up literally all night writing, this is probably the last thing I should have gone with.  It's apparently what I needed to write, though, for my own psychological well-being.

Oh my gawd, Bug/Joey, why don't you just belt out my exact feelings at 1:36 in this video... I am being very good and not watching any more of the show until my DVD arrives, but I couldn't not watch that bit, as many times as I've listened to the song over the past couple of days. Jeeze, what a birthday present they gave me without my having any ( Read more... )

I had planned to wait another week or so before even thinking about when to next see OST, but after this week that has been happening to me and everyone I know in this area, I need #3 on Saturday.  Assuming I live that long ( Read more... )

I took the hermana, the Lovely Kat, and the Lovely Kat's novio to see On Stranger Tides tonight.  Of course they WOULD have brought religion into the story now...

What a weird, weird weekend.  I shall tell you all about it (and debut my brand new Inspirational Phrase of the Moment icon) later.

Work is going to be _weird_ tomorrow.

It's time again for another Meme from Magpie!

Using only EPISODE names from ONE TV SHOW, cleverly answer these questions. Try not to repeat an episode title.
