Five things
1. Decisions, decisions. Do I make the trip to my comic shop on Saturday to get this month's comics or do I wait another week until the next issue of Red Robin comes out and pick them all up then? I had it perfectly worked out because Batgirl, Red Robin, Batman and Robin and Birds of Prey all came out on the same day and those are my favourites. Now they've changed the schedule *sulks* It's only about 20 minutes away by train but somehow it still manages to take up my entire Saturday but I don't want to wait another month to read Red Robin.
2. I bought a new mouse for my computer because the gel on my old one had gone all bubbly and started leaking (IDEK). It is pink and awesome!
3. Every time I think that I am completely uninterested in a particular comics character or pairing - I come across an issue or fanfic that changes my mind. e.g. I never thought I'd find Rose Wilson (Ravager) interesting until I read about her in Nightwing and in The Titans (she used to baby sit Lian!!!) It gives me hope that someday I'll grow fond of Raven (the comics version, I mean. I adore Raven and her world weary voice in the Teen Titans cartoon).
4. Countdown by genre (Under the Red Hood. Jason Todd. Gen, PG-13 )
There’s a feeling of wrongness that’s been following him around since their plane first landed and he can’t shake the feeling that something is about to happen. Heartbreaking fic about the events leading up to Jason's death in Under the Red Hood with an amazing sense of place.
5. Oh crap! Only five days until I'm supposed to finish my
notgreenorblue fic. I picked the prompt Bilal Asselah, Dick Grayson "Learning to fly", which is pretty much based on this page because I was desperate to read it but I am so stuck. I've got some vague ideas but I have no clue how to make it into a coherent whole.
