Why yes, it is in fact a tradition now that Sunday evenings are for TV blogging.

( The Good Wife - s2, episodes 12 and 13 )

Dear Merlin,

( I love you! )

Some of you reading this might have noticed that most of my fannish energy these days is going into knitting.

However, I just saw the Watchmen trailer.

Um, I think I will be over here dying of geek anticipation for the next, oh, YEAR.

OhmyholygodiftheygetitanythinglikeasgoodasthattrailerIwillbesohappy!!!!!!

( Supernatural. Because hey, they really HAVE been through both Hell and high tides! And think they can rely on each other! So tell us, Sam and Dean... what difference does it make? *iz deep zomg* *also, spoilery up to Red Sky In The Morning* )

I was going to write about writerly ethics - no, really, I was, I had Thoughts and a list and everything. Only my life takes me past my local graveyard, you see, which usually I like very much (it's pretty and quiet and I, er, am kind of weird and like graveyards generally) and this means 1. gargoyles and 2. statues.

Because I know some of my favourite people are sad today, and because I hear it's Thanksgiving or some such in some strange corners of the world, and because shiroi_chi made me, I present: my favourite Canadian music. Plus, it's way too cold here and they're threatening snow this weekend - snow! in Blighty! - so I thought it was appropriate ( Read more... )
