Things that I am not doing
I had this great plan that I was going to do my Christmas shopping (on Amazon) when I got home. And also that I was going to read massive chunks of my current library book.
I spent a couple of hours relaxing on the couch. Then I heated soup for supper and watched Angel as part of my Buffy re-watch. Now I'm writing this up before I head back to the couch. I may get really active later and sit up in my recliner with the TV remote.
I did accomplish something: I read some of my library book. It's not that I hate the book, but I don't love the book either. It's a very 'meh' book. It's a YA urban sci-fi type thing, which should be great fun except the characters are rather 2D and the storyline is nothing that I haven't seen before, usually better. I usually enjoy this author's grown-up books, but it looks her YA stuff isn't my thing.
I've reached the "I'll finish it or die trying stage". Woe is me.
When I get too bored with the book, I keep switching to fanfic because it's so much more fun.
I'm not sure whether this is a reaction to the book or a reaction my current level of brain-dribbling exhaustion, but I'm going through a bit of a re-boot Star Trek fic thing. I have fics on the go on my iPad and on my Kindle. And as all the good, long stories are K/S, I'm reading rather a lot of K/S reboot slash. For some reason, my brain cannot handle TOS K/S, but I'm quite happy with reboot. Hmm.
It helps that in with some quite excellent plotty fics, there are also some rather cracktastic fics and I'm loving those as well. Oh, fandom, my love for you is eternal.
If anyone has good recs for reboot K/S stuff (if it's on AO3, even better) I wouldn't say no...
