Hey you guys! A list:

- Been a bit of week for me. Don't want to get into details, but things might be weird for me for a while.

- I'd really love it, if any of you were interested, if you'd look into signing up for [livejournal.com profile] martha_lims. First challenge is already up, if you want to check it out, and there's two weeks before I close sign ups. :D I'm not ashamed of this pimping!

- I getting into making icons, specifically Doctor Who icons. Sort of a therapy to help me with my anger towards the finale. Yeah, there's just some parts of that finale I've come to loathe and I don't want to take it out on you guys, my lovely lovely f-list.

- I like to move things I don't like from my mind. Working on DW icons is really NOT the answer to that. Hmmm...I suppose co-modding [livejournal.com profile] martha_lims would fall under that. BUT she's like, the one thing from that finale that I had NO problems with.

- Anyone on my f-list watching the new USA network show In Plain Sight? I love it, it's fun, with little sides of drama and angst, and enjoyable.

- So many shows I get to watch in the summertime now! The one previously mentioned, Burn Notice, The Middleman (which I've described to some as awesome, terrible, fun and THE BEST), The Closer and Eureka. I think I'm missing something...OKAY FINE, I ADMIT IT, I'm also watching So You Think You Can Dance.

- I'm in love with the pizza place down the street from me.

- You know, I was watching something this morning to remind me of this. I mentioned something about this a couple weeks ago. Anyway, I've never made it a secret that I sympathize and relate to female characters that pine for the wrong guy. And I mentioned the other week the double standard of girls getting attacked in fandom for this and male characters in similar situaitons don't, but I FINALLY GOT IT.

Girls pine for the boys that treat them like shit, and the guys (specifically in shows I watch, this isn't widespread) pine usually for a girl that's not so bad to them (or in some cases, their best friend).

I was again reminded of this when I was watching a couple episodes of Firefly. Yeah, I'm totally re-watching all of those right now to be reminded of the AWESOMENESS. Anyway, I remembered that Kaylee pined for Simon, and that he was sometimes quite a jerk towards her. But I totally forgot that she didn't let him get away with it. She always let him know when he had said something out of line and I'm reminded why I liked them in the first place and why I utterly adored her too. Plus, he didn't do it on purpose and he was so awkward when speaking a lot of the time to Kaylee, so you almost felt bad for him.

- I'm hungry. I think I'm gonna have some of that pizza I mentioned earlier :D

- Weird, random post is now...over *blows kisses*


OMG, you guys were just totally reminded of what a supreme dork I am, weren't you?

My way of working through the things about Doctor Who 4x13 I don't like is just trying not to think about them. It's working better than it was at the start of the week. Time heals all wounds, etc..

I love Kaylee. She's easily my favourite female character in Firefly by a long shot. She feels very real, and I love how Jewel Staite plays her. Such a lovely character and actress.

Yeah, I think that'd help a lot. Just distance myself and NOT think about the episode.

YES, Jewel is wonderful at helping in creating Kaylee, her joy and sadness and everything, something really natural about the character that I adore.

Firefly was a really nice to show to watch. I really enjoyed it. And Kaylee was pretty much my favourite and I like Simon/Kaylee for the exact reasons you gave. Kaylee is such a positive girl, but she never lets him get away with things, it was really nice.

I LIKE DORKS.

I adore it so! What's really lovely is going back and remembering exactly WHAT I loved about the show and especially Kaylee. I actually couldn't remember why she was my favorite. And yeah, that is why I love Kaylee/Simon.

HEH.
