(no subject)
This week I got home from work after 10-10:30PM almost every day, so today I said fuck it and left at the normal hour, only to arrive home at 8:30PM and fall asleep watching the Master Chef semifinal /o\. I woke up an hour later, watched about an hour of Labor Partly primaries results, and then officially retired for the evening, although as you may note by this post's existence, unofficially I'm not yet actually asleep :/
Tomorrow morning I'll leave for Tel Aviv at 7AM to meet the IKEA guys who are supposed to assemble my closet, who will HOPEFULLY be on time -- given my experience with them this week, I am full of sadness and doubt. Straight from work I'll be going to a friend's wedding, meaning I'll get home around 2-3AM, which would be fine if not for the fact that on Friday morning I have to leave for my uncle's two-day birthday extravaganza up north for which we have to leave at 10AM, meep. I love my family but this is the worst timing -- not only because I actually wanted to rest this weekend, and because I wanted to use the time to clean up the new place and make it livable, but also because of the UN speeches which will be happening Friday evening and god I just want to sit in front of the TV and watch the news broadcasts for a couple of hours, watch the live Abu-Mazen and Bibi speeches and listen to reactions and interpretations and see what happens. Stuff is happening and not only do I not want to miss it, but I want to know what's going to happen next. I feel like our leaders, and by our I mean just Israel's, are playing a game of improv, and there's no array of scripts to choose from -- the future's just a clean blank slate and I have no idea what's going to happen, no idea what ball will be set rolling by the UN proceedings this weekend and which direction it will roll.
On the fandom front I:
(a) watched the Emmys. FNLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL \o/ \o/ ♥♥♥♥♥. Wish they could have won more, but I'll take it.
(b) watched HIMYM (meh), have obtained but haven't yet watched Unforgettable (anyone seen that?) and Glee eta: have just watched Glee. Does anyone have recommendations for any new shows you've enjoyed so far?
(c) read the synopsis for the s8 premiere of House. Whaaaaaaat O_O is that for real?
(d) had an actual Panic plotbunny that might maybe, if I actually find the time, get written, or at least notficced.
(e) am sooo excited for getting a new Panic song soon :D And am almost equally psyched that it's coming out on a Batman soundtrack. When fandoms collide <333 I was talking to someone about a Panic/Comics crossover and I don't remember the plot, just that it was like, Brendon getting shipped off to his kooky relatives in Smallville and being the new kid in Kon's high school, and I don't know where we were going with that, I don't think we knew. Anyway here is a 30-second preview of the song yay.
ETA: I forgot to add: if you want to save your Delicious links, please accept the AVOS T&Cs by this Friday, Sept 23rd, or your bookmarks will be lost D: Please save them, please please please, and remind others to do the same. Delicious.com, save your bookmarks!
And another note about that: while Delicious is amazing for fic-finding purposes, it's also an awesome ego-booster to search for your own fics/username and see what other people have said about your stories. Some of people's comments will probably disappear after the 23rd, so if you want to go look and bask one last time, or save some of those HTMLs for a rainy day, now would be the time to do that...
