* I officially hate my [livejournal.com profile] holmes_big_bang story and I wish I could just stop writing it with good conscience.

* Is it just me or is Doctor Who getting kind of... yawn? The Weeping Angels scared me to death in Blink but somehow managed to be boring in The Time of Angels and Flesh and Stone. Vampires in Venice was just plain bad. Terrible acting, terrible storytelling, terrible all the way through (I do like Rory though). Please let the next episode be awesome, because I want to keep my love for this show.

* Got another not-quite-cold that just refuses to become a real cold. So, tired and grumpy and freezing and not in the mood for anything at all.

* [livejournal.com profile] holmes_big_bang status report: 8k. Plot pretty much figured out. I have no illusions about the quality of the writing but hey, at least I'm writing! That's a good thing, right?

* I seem to be on a films-based-on-comic-books roll. Saw The Losers yesterday after mainlining the comics. The comic made more sense plot-wise than the film, but at least the film did not break my heart at the end. The characters are awesome in both comic and film. Cougar and Jensen and Aisha all own my heart.

* It's been a weird week, emotion-wise. I've been going around feeling guilty for no reason at all. I have nothing to feel guilty about! Even if I had, I would grab that feeling by the scruff of the neck and kick it out of the door, because my life? Guilt free zone! But to do that, I need to know the source of the guilt so I can just tell myself that it's really nothing to worry about in the long run. Whatever.

* The Mentalist is beginning to bore me. Castle still holds my interest. I cannot wait for Psych and Leverage to start up again.

* Aaaaaand I have watched Supernatural again. Spoilers up to 5x21 )

My quest to catch up on Supernatural has begun! I have coffe, I have chocolate, I am ready to tackle this beast!

When am I going to learn that I just shouldn't watch the last thirty minutes of Serenity. Damn you, Joss Whedon! Five years and I still bawl my eyes out. Every. Single. Time.

I was going to catch up on Supernatural today but I think I've had my heart torn out and stomped on enough for one day. Might finish the latest Dresden Files instead. Or maybe not, if what I've read so far is any indication to how it's going to end. (See: heart torn out and stomped on. And no, I do not want to be spoiled!)

Soooo... sitting down and waiting for Doctor Who? Check.

By the way. Am I the only one who has trouble finishing a book or a show or a movie if it looks like it's going to end badly for my favourite characters? Just to take an example - I was spoiled for the end of Torchwood and I still haven't been able to bring myself to see Children of Earth. (Let's not even talk about SGA. The last episode is sitting unwatched on my harddrive. I know what happens but it's like, if I watch it, it's going to be over for real.)

These are the things I ponder on a Saturday evening. How about you, dear f-list?

I'm thinking about taking a break. I haven't written anything in a loooong time and I feel terrible about it, so I might as well make the hiatus official and take the pressure off. Right now I just want find my way back to that place where I write because it's fun and not because I have to.

Over to more interesting things:

So. I'll miss Tennant and I'm pretty sure Ten will always be my Doctor. However, despite my earlier doubts, I can report that Matt Smith is, in fact, the Doctor.

(Still. He's the same age I am. I don't know why that seems wrong? Does it mean I have to accept that I'm a grown-up? Meep.)

(Seriously. Not only is he the same age I am. He's actually seven days younger than me.)

(Seven days.)

Yay!

I can has PSYCH! Welcome back, Psych! Even if this particular ep was kind of meh.

And on that note - I wish I wasn't allergic to pineapple. (It's pretty annoying. Why can't I be allergic to something I hate, like nuts? Noooo, I have to be allergic to delicious fresh pineapple. Ah, well. At least it's not something really inconvenient like gluten or lactose.)

[livejournal.com profile] sgabigbang progress report: 40 130 words. I'm really not nice to John in this one. But I figure, if I had to spend all day yesterday with a migraine that made me throw up until long after there was anything left to throw up, why should he get off more easily?

Time to write some porn now, I think.

Oh, and why didn't anyone tell me how awesome Leverage is? I think I'm in love with Parker and I don't even find blondes all that hot...

I do not follow it, I do not go looking for it. I just read fandom_wank when bored at work.

So, can someone explain how this goes? This is what I have found out:
- Having seen TOS prior to the reboot makes me better than those who haven't.
- However, since I had to watch the reruns (due to not actually being born in the sixties) I'm a n00b trekkie and should shut my mouth.
- Equal liking for TOS and the reboot puts me somewhere in between those who prefer TOS (apparently WIN) and those who prefer the movie (apparently FAIL).
- Writing fic for the reboot is inferior to writing fic for TOS.
- Fangirls are terrible creatures and should DIAF.

Umm... am I a bad person for actually preferring reboot fandom? 'Cause I didn't encounter wank until I started wondering where all the cool old-school trekkies were hanging out. And boy do they have grudges!
