David Krumholtz is such a geek. Who bumps their own thread?

The long-awaited sequel to Faith (Harry/Draco, R), To Walk a Narrow Path (or here at FF.net), has started! It makes zero sense if you haven't read the first story, but it was one of the first Harry/Draco fics I ever read, so I'm rather fond of it. And with nearly 4500 reviews, I think a few ( Read more... )

ESPN College GameDay is at the Coliseum (and even after living here my entire life, I still am unsure how we spell that). I was very tempted to wake up at 5am or so and make my way over there, but instead I slept. ESPN was there because it's USC-UCLA today, and UCLA will be clobbered. But since both defenses leave much to be desired, hopefully it ( Read more... )

Er, Possession, the epic Harry/Voldemort fic by Jade Tatsu has, apparently, disappeared from FF.net. ::hopes, but doubts, that this is just a glitch and all 2409 of her reviews have not been lost::

On an unrelated note, HOUSE, M.D. season premiere! Will be back tomorrow with random thoughts. All I will say now is House and Jeff Buckley, mmmmm.

Christmas was lovely. A crystal clear blue sky and the RotK EE. I now have the perfect leather jacket, a treasure chest (the tag said it was from pirates!), an oxblood purple wallet, and best of all, the sassiest purple suede gloves. I wore the gloves yesterday with one of my black coats and I looked oddly reminiscent of the new Willy Wonka. I only ( Read more... )

I just read the newest chapter of Unforgivable Promises by Aethen and I am just going to give a ::dreamy sigh:: This fic is slowly but surely working it's way to the top of my list of all-time favorites. For those of you who are actually reading this and care about my fanfic fangirling, Unforgivable Promises is an SS/HP (and good lord, PG-13!) that ( Read more... )

I'm gutted. Jerry Goldsmith, my favorite film and TV composer, has died at the age of 75. For those of you who don't know who Jerry Goldsmith was, where have you been? He wrote the themes for Star Trek, The Twilight Zone, and Perry Mason among many others. He also composed the scores to some of my all-time favorite films: Patton, Lilies of the ( Read more... )

We're having a heat wave. A tropical heat wave. The temperature's rising. It isn't surprising. She certainly can....can-can...

In other words, it's rather hot today. Luckily I procured a Japanese fan at the Festival yesterday. Besides using my new fan for it's intended purpose of cooling myself, it's also awfully fun to whip it open and closed, ( Read more... )

...There's a new world I'm afraid to see
...A new world louder every moment
...Come to me, come to me...

Started training today for my research internship. It went well, just an overview of what's expected of me. Tomorrow I start my first regular day of labwork. Should be interesting.

I saw the first two episodes of Ultraviolet last night!!! If I ( Read more... )

The Ten Commandments is on. Oh, the melodrama! Oh, Moses, Moses! Oh dear. I really must turn the station. I can only handle so much of that movie, and only in small doses.

If you're not averse to HP time-travel fics, here's an interesting pre-OotP AU series: The Amulet of Time by Luna the Moonmonster. There are four stories so far in the series and ( Read more... )

Went out to lunch with my mother, today.  It was the first time I'd left the house without a jacket of some kind all year. I always feel somehow safer if I have a jacket on, even in summer. ( I'm such a prude, sometimes. Click here to find out how much of a prude. )
