# Real life. (Blah.I was planning to go for a walk today, but then I slept until 10-ish, breakfasted and wasted time on the internet, practiced Excel, had a bit of lunch, half-heartely thought about where I might go, couldn't decide, and ultimately decided that I needed a lazy stay-at-home day after last weekend's stress ( Read more... )

Another quote from RTD's book -

To be honest, I have trouble with 'escapism' full stop. It's usually a derogatory term. Or condescending. At best, cute. [...] It makes the pastime, whether it's a hobby or a job, seem tiny and silly, when it's a vital part of your life. [...] Writing is actually my way of engaging with the world, not escaping from ( Read more... )

Oh dear. So I'm watching videos from Dragon Con on YouTube, and, quote, Michael Rosenbaum on the subject of the actors apparently not being told anything on Smallville:

'There's this giant through line, throughout seven years, for the show. And they go, okay so this is what's gonna happen. Lex will become bad. But right now he's not. Ookaay. So, ( Read more... )

Just finished SV S4 and, dear god, am I depressed now. In the 'Draco Malfoy is a poor, horribly misunderstood (possibly abused) saint in leather pants and JKR is an evil, evil bitch' way. Except that the SV writers gave us a little more reason to become emotionally invested in Lex. More whining about that possibly likely to follow ( Read more... )

* Whee! Present from soavezefiretto! ::smooches:: It's a gorgeous red, orange and yellow glass sun, and it's hanging from the shelf above my desk now, slightly behind and to the right of my computer, to remind me of, and inspire, good, sunshine-y thoughts ( Read more... )

Wanted, with some desperation: a tv show that I can fangirl without blushing. Because right now, I'm marathon-watching Smallville, without too much internal snark even, and what that says about the state of my mind I don't want to know ( Read more... )

Once in a while even I have to make one of those fangirlish squeeful posts, because SV S4 Devoted? So very ::squee:: And aw!, and heartbreak, and wanting to smack Clark (Seriously, would it kill him not to ask Lex something do for him immediately post-reconciliation? God. It's really kind of disgusting.), but that last isn't exactly new. Not that ( Read more... )

Sunny and warm, beautiful day, slightly tainted by the faint melancholy of Sundays. Did this breakfast & movie thing with some people from work, we saw Fatih Akin's Crossing the Bridge, which is a truly amazing, wonderful film about the music of Istanbul and the power and impact of music, regardless of genre - everything from rap to the music of ( Read more... )
