Happy New Year, Moony-Moon!

[jackwabbit]

When I realized tonight was not only a full moon, but a blue moon, there was really only one thing to do. *ponders what it might have been* Why, write Remus Lupin fic, of course!

However, my muse is not complying (I have seven drafts open right now, and I hate them all! There have been many more open at various times tonight, too.), and I'm a little

Happy Howling New Year!

I'm surprised not to see Oz (from BuffyTVS) on your list of loup- garou. I don't know 'Being Human'... I'll have to check it out.

(((JW))) *champagne*

Okay, time for geek point loss confession time!

I have never seen a single episode of BtVS.

It's on my "to do" list, but...I totally missed that. I didn't watch TV then, and if I did, I can guarantee an adolescent girl as a main character was a huge turn off (still is, in fact - I can't stand River Tam in comparison to the rest of the FF crew, and Buffy, well...yeah...kinda annoys me just to look at). That said, I'll get there one day. I had a big conversation in my comic shop a few months ago about it - sounds like good, but I'm not there yet.

Dude. That took forever to type. (In fact, I did type "type" about four times. Yeah...wheee!) I probably shouldn't have fixed my typos, as they were funny, but...yeah...no...I can't do that.

No geek point loss here! I was the same way, but with XFiles. I watched Buffy to escape my massive obsession with LOTR, and never watched XFiles while it was on the air.

When I was 'ready', I got into XFiles. LOVE IT.

Buffy can be fun. Giles is my favourite character, then Angel, then Oz, then Xander. Buffy is the catalyst who brings everyone together..

I really recommend 'Angel', if you like Buffy at all. 10x better than BtVS, IMO.

Oh, The X-Files. I discovered it in season four. Sigh...

And then I fell.

Hard.

It was all over.

I lost my mind.

I watched it every day. It was on reruns on FX then and it was on at six and ten. The ten o'clock ep was a rerun of the early one from the previous day. So, I saw them all twice and then I taped them when they started over and watched them more.

Then I watched as the new ones came out.

I literally unplugged my phone when it was on, etc. Only show I've ever done that with. And it introduced me to fandom as a real entity. I'd been to Trek cons and such, but as they say "The X-Files is the be all and end all of internet fandom." It didn't exist before, you know?

Sigh...

Love. Them.

I know. But I'm in the States, remember? I won't get it until who knows when. BBC America will likely show it, but it will take a while. I can't even watch the character vignette vids that were released a few weeks ago online because they are geographically restricted. That is so stupid. But the way I see it is that it's my turn. Being stateside, I get most things first, so I can wait for this.

"Patience. For the wabbit it is time to wait, as well."

I was able to watch the series two preview, but I'll be going actively offline in regards to Being Human as soon as it starts airing for you lucky people. No spoilers, please!

Dear BBC, please, please, please, please, please bring me Being Human series one on DVD and series two on TV just as soon as you can! I'd really appreciate that! Kthxbai!

Indeed! hope you don't have too bad of a hangover ;)

Dude. I'm fine. I am reminded of my Scot genetics and a Jimmy Buffett quote:

"We both were growing older then, and wiser with the years."

Too true. I'm so glad to be past that "let's drink 'til we puke up our guts and think we're so cool" phase of life. Not that I did that much at all, really, even when I was younger and dumber. I managed one of those perfect buzz nights last PM. Happy but not too ridiculous, and up at ten with no ill effects today, despite the fact that I was up at four AM still.

Of course, my cat woke me for breakfast at seven, but I was able to go back to sleep, so all in all an average morning for me!

Hope you're fine, too.
