raw particles of inspiration

Who else is getting anxious about the H50 premiere next week? I thought so. While we're waiting, I hereby declare this day Alex O'Loughlin Face Day!



( More pretty! )

I'm sitting at work and we don't have anything better to do than watch youtube videos of drunk people falling down, so I might as well do this instead.

So, sgamadison asked me why I like Suits and I had to do some thinking. I usually hate lawyer shows, but for some reason, this one caught my interest. (I swear, it's not only because of the pretty people and the snark.)

Usually, the best way to make me like a show is to have the the characters be likeable. They don't have to be saints or anything, but I want them to at least be good guys. In Suits... they aren't. More often than not, I'd like to smack them with a spoon until they start behaving. And for some strange reason, I like it. No one is exclusively good or bad.

( Cut for pimping, spoilers and pretty people. )

Dear TV-gods,

Shirtless Christopher Gorham and Shirtless Matt Bomer, all in one week? I must have been good!

Much love,
Zin


(No, I really don't have anything more intelligent to say. Other than a big YAY! for Diana's girlfriend finally getting a little bit of screentime.)

* casa_mcshep is open for business with a free-for-all challenge. Yay!

* I just spilled a glass of red wine all over my favourite chair with the green cushions. Bleh.

* Also, I just had a thought. (Yes, it happens!) It's entirely possible someone else already had it. I don't keep up with SPN meta.

Yesterday, I had a bit of a headache and stiff shoulders. This morning, I woke up with the worst wry neck of my life. When the simple motion of reaching for my cell phone to turn off the alarm made me cry (literally cry - that's how I know it's bad...) I had to realise that there would be no work for me today. Long story short, I've been forced to spend the entire day flat on my back because even thinking about moving made me hurt.

So with nothing else to do, I decided to watch the rest of Merlin season 3 that I haven't been able to work up the enthusiasm for before.

(Neck is a little better now. I've got an appointment with my physical therapist tomorrow morning and he can hopefully sort it out.)

* There's a lady in my building who loves music, especially loud music. Last night she decided that midnight was a good time to play her very loud music. Eventually someone'd had enough and called the landlord's security guards. Music Lady refused to open when they arrived and kept playing her music. The security guards gave up and called the police, who finally managed to get her to turn off the noise. At 2 o'clock in the morning. When I have to be up at 5.30.

I love my flat and I think renting is brilliant but right now I have a sudden urge to find a house in the middle of the woods with no neighbours at all.

If anyone needs me I'll be under my desk, sleeping.


* Leverage! How much do I love Eliot? (Realism? What realism? That was awesome.) And how cute are Parker and Hardison? (Pretzels!) The answer to both questions is: Very Much.


* Two days 'til Christmas and I have bought a grand total of zero gifts. It's probably time to start thinking about that...

1. I'm alive. Sorry for dropping out of internet existence. In short - my joints hate me, and we've had a wasp invasion bad enough that you can expect a Deluxe edition of Stupid Customer of the Day soon.

1,25. So, so, so sorry for missing all those birthdays and not bearing gifts. Happy belated birthday wishes to sgamadison, anyanka_eg and winter_elf! I'll try to make it up to you.

1,5. I have a wrist brace and a bottle of anti-inflammatories and I'm not really supposed to do any typing for a while (yeah, good luck with that...) so I'm probably going to be verrrrry slow to respond to things. Please bear with me for a little bit.

2. Fandom.... Leverage: Could Hardison and Parker be any cuter? White Collar: Yay for Diana! Psych: Still awesome. Also, I went to see the A-team movie which was entertaining enough but also made me want to check out the tv-show. Not disappointed :) I think I have a new love.

Thank you dearest almighty f-list for not spoiling me!

( Spoilers for 5x22 - Swan Song. This is pure reaction, no insightful commentary in sight. All right, maybe a little. But mostly gut reaction. And a little bit of letting my writerbrain out to play. )
