An arsenal of hammers

Jan 03, 2012 19:23

I am typing this primarily with my left hand, as my right hand rests pathetically on the desk under a Simpsons-themed boo-boo buddy. You will see why later in this post!

But first, back in time: Christmas was a blur of driving, celebrating, attempting to avoid family drama, and shifting our plans around to accommodate a sick and exhausted wife. ( Read more... )

fiction on paper, get out and push, you can stay at my place, in search of a master narrative, i don't know what that means, cakemaker of kiev, catch me if you, that fandom about hair and geek heros

Hi to both of you...regret to inform you that Downton Abbey doesn't really get better (though I suppose it depends on one's definition of better). The characters don't get any more likable within series 1--in fact I'd say they continue to degenerate to the bitter end. In the second series almost all of the characters are softened, but in exchange the plots become more ridiculous. It is not a good show, but it is addictive.

You tripped over a kitten. That is NOT how I expected you to have slammed your hand in that door. LOL. I'm so sorry! If it's any consolation, I tripped over my mom's cat a few months ago and managed to fall on a giant rubbermaid container and SHATTER IT INTO PIECES, and gash myself open in the process. Cats are DANGER.

I have not talked about seeing the Sherlock Holmes movie because I am still not sure what I saw was a movie and not a fever dream of queer beauty.

LOLOL I need to see that shit, STAT.

Glad the holidays went well for you ♥

OMG BB DDDDDDDDDDDDDDD: THAT IS A LOT OF BADNESS TO HAPPEN ALL AT ONCE LIKE THAT, SHIT DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD: HONEY!!! :(((((((

I really hope the bills for all that housework aren't TOO egregious, and I hope K is feeling better SOON, and your poor HAND, JFC! I was literally reading your entry with my hands over my mouth, like, HOW DOES IT JUST KEEP GOING LIKE THAT /o\

*SO MANY, MANY HUGS TO YOUUUUUUUUUU*

I laughed at your DOWNTOWN ABBEY words (I haven't seen it yet but people are enthused enough that I will probably hate it), and told feverbeats and he laughed too.

WEIRDLY THOUGH, actually not weirdly, I really don't like Bones at all because the two times I've seen it, it was nasty about religion in a way even I find gross (I mean, I am disillusioned and rude about religion, but I have limits--I think one of the main characters kept assuming the priest was a child molester, WHICH MADE ME ANGRY), and and the other time it was nasty about kink (specifically pony play) in a way I also found gross. Even when that stuff is a product of the characters, and how they are meant to be flawed, I mostly just find it uncomfortable--especially since I can't step into the story and say LISTEN, BITCHES, YOU'RE BEING A) RUDE AND B) PRETTY BAD INVESTIGATORS IF YOU LET YOUR PREJUDICES GUIDE YOUR THINKING.
