Whoaaaaaaaaa what is this about a potential Xena reboot? First 24 is coming back, then the X-Files, and now this, maybe. If this ends up being some kind of sequel with Lucy Lawless that could potentially be awesome, but what if it ends up being an entirely new reboot! I feel way too young for the universe to get reboots of iconic canons I grew up on, what even.
And if it ends up happening and it is a total reboot, I'm just wondering, is this what '70s BSG fans and Hawaii 5-0 fans felt? Or I guess more relevantly, is this what Star Trek fans felt? I'd never watched TOS so watching the movie really was pretty much a blank slate for me.
In random news, still trying to figure out where to travel other than Edinburgh but we're almost there, I can feel it. And for another completely logical change of topic, is the LJ-links-trailing-off-into-ellipses thing new? Is it only me that's seeing it? Is there a way to disable it? Is anyone still checking their LJ regularly instead of their DW? I will be honest, I like and am used to the formatting of my LJ friends page more than my DW one, which is why I check it first and more often. I could probably spend some time trying to design the DW one to look just like LJ, but that would, uh. Take time.
Meanwhile, I started reading a few books, and was on a really good trend! And then I stopped :/ :/ :/ I'm halfway through Gentlemen of the Road, and it's such a short book, I'll try to finish it on the train ride tomorrow. I am taking a train to Haifa to meet some friends but really, really it is to meet the puppy that they just adopted even if I'll only get an hour to play with him. It's a LEGIT REAL LIFE PUPPY. I'm so excited.
On the train, I will either be *fingers crossed* finishing the book, or I will attempt to write some fic. I signed up for a Kaner/Tazer hockey RPF finish-a-fic-in-August challenge, and I have a very realistic feeling that if I don't finish my story I will get yelled at, and uh, I don't want that to happen. I also want to finish the story! So that's something that should happen.
Hockey's been fun this past week, though I can't help be jealous of One Direction fandom, who got a secret baby plot twist that looks like so much fun! I want a secret baby plot twist too, sigh. Perhaps someone in the finish-a-fic-in-August challenge will write some secret baby fic. Perhaps that is a thing that will happen.
I should go to sleep. Don't mind me; it was an unbearably long day at work, and I left at 10PM, getting home around 10:30. So now it's one of days where I'm just dragging out how long I'm awake because I don't want my entire day to have consisted of just work and sleep. But: sleep I should, because tomorrow I'm going to need my strength. There will, after all, be a puppy.
