Hey you guys! I've been so quiet because I've been fucking busy. It really sucks. Reading the f-list though, I'm so happy to see most of y'all had lovely holidays. ♥

So, a list of things I'd like to share with you all...

- Target had Firefly for $19.99, I got a giftcard to Target for $25. Do the math. *SQUEE*

- I found an old giftcard to Borders. $15! Score (When I say old, I mean literally years)

- While I may hate it when my sister comes home sometimes, it's so lovely at the same time because she's so outspoken and very obvious liberal, it warms my heart to hear her talk about some things. ( Just a little family and slightly political/religious stuff... )

- I fucking love our local flea market, it's the best thing (well, very nearly, their "pet store" could use a little investigation). They have a little book cove and it's heaven. And I mean heaven as in you can get a complete works of William Shakespeare hardcover novel for $2. NO LIE.

- OMG, any of y'all watch Life? Amazon.com has it for $17.49. Damn, you guys. I should have asked for a Amazon gift card.

- So, the only Doctor Who mood I seem to be in is the bug that bite me and is making write another Martha Jones centered fic. It's making me want to change my mood theme to a Martha one I acquired. I'm trying to think what triggered this in my brain, and I just remembered a Martha fic I read the other day and I know now why. Got bit by a big bug, apparently.

- There's been a book I've wanted to rec to you guys for a long time, but I couldn't remember the name or the author's, and I thought I have lost the book but I cleaned up my room a little and found it. It's called The Last Time They Met by Anita Shreve.

- I really hope you guys had a great week, and in the unlikely event I don't get to in the coming week, hope you guys have an amazing new year :D

RaNdOm, yes. And....I'm out.

ETA: ACK, birthday! I thought I'd been keeping track of that :( Happy Birthday, hollywoodgrrl and _becca84_!

*hugs f-list*

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 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 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?
