I hate getting bit by a fanfic bug. I almost always get halfway through a piece and end up stuck.

FU brain!

Wow. So much for being back and intending to post more!

Although, a little in my defense, I have commented on a couple journals! But at the same time I owe quite a few birthday wishes.

I'm sorry for being a bad LJ friend *pouts*

I've been caught on some shows though, watching and all that, and spending quite a bit of time with family. Like going to the flea market with the parents. I love that place so so much.

I'm...pretty sure I'm done with The Office. I haven't been watching and I don't really care to. Which is sad, because I was capping it, and have stopped. We'll see if I at least finish the season. I did watch the special "baby" episode. Liked it, but I miss what the show used to be like. Also, I think Pam was pregnant for a whole year. YIKES.

And I am watching this last season of Lost. Holy fuck. That's it.

I'm watching Chuck, too. I'm really sad that not so many others are. I thought they've had some really solid episodes. Although, this past Monday's was just...special. I think that's part of what's a small problem. Needs more "OT3" and less "OT3 and that Superman guy".

OH OH and I found BtVS on LOGO. I haven't properly watched an episode in so long. Loved that show so much.

So, speaking of tv, I may or may not have gotten myself hooked to two soaps and found months too late that that was a very bad idea. Really no good. *shakes head*

HELLO DARLINGS. I just disappeared. I think I commented on random posts, but I feel that I've been really out of it. It started with a really bad weekend and...well, I just now feel like it's picking up :)

- I've missed birthdays! So very happy (and dreadfully belated) birthday wishes to: [livejournal.com profile] twisted_angel5, [livejournal.com profile] justbolognese, [livejournal.com profile] whywastewords, [livejournal.com profile] nina_ds, and [livejournal.com profile] kammgirl.

*hugs to you all*

- Thank you [livejournal.com profile] seekingwords for the snowflake! I wish I could return to the favor to each of you on the f-list, but alas I'm not able to this year. But I adore having each and every one of you lovely individuals on my f-list *muah*

OR HEY, I did this...a long time ago, but maybe I could offer icon services? :D For the end of the year/holidays, let me know!

I think I'll update sometime later with my thoughts on TV. And possibly share with you a new obsession that I'm slightly ashamed of, hehe.

OH AND also, who else watched Rachel Maddow pwn her guest Richard Cohen last night? Man, that felt good to watch. Frustrating because that man was infuriating and just plain wrong, but it's really nice to watch her in her element in a debate like that because she's just so calm and it just works so well like that.

Just a quick drive-by...

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!
meganlynn09: (Default)
So, my paid account expired a little while ago, no problem. But then I look, and without a lot of details, and realized I couldn't get it back for a while.

And y'all know how I love my icons! I was starting to get worried that I'd get online one day and see that all my 100+ icons would disappear, heh

So, I just wasted spent a little time saving all the icons I had and uploaded 15, yeah, just 15. Mostly new ones *points up...or to the side* and just a few of my oldies to keep the newbies company :D

I feel better *nods*




*iz lame* :D

OH, and I think I'm gonna change my mood theme, maybe, I don't know. Maybe I'll change my layout first.
meganlynn09: (Default)
I really miss my icons :( But I've still got this pretty one to use!

I completely missed wishing [livejournal.com profile] beck_liz a happy birthday the other day! Hope it was a good one!!

Also, I'm totally taking icon requests over here. Dooo it. You know, if you want :D

So bored my friends. But hey! New SPN in 20 minutes, looks entertaining ;)

And Glee last night was great, really having fun with that one.

And I'm really enjoying looking for those quotes for my subject line. Seriously, first few years of That 70's Show were so funny. Maybe when I get bored of those quotes though, I'll use Malcolm in the Middle, so hilarious.

P.S. WOW at my mood.
meganlynn09: (Default)
Wow, I feel like I've almost been ignoring you guys. I've left a few comments on a very few journals, but really, I've been pretty quiet since my last visit to grandma.

Anyway, A LOT HAS HAPPENED. Yes, that needed all caps.

First, RIP to Ted Kennedy, a bit heartbreaking to have lost him.

Second, a very late birthday wish to the awesome [livejournal.com profile] lafemmedarla, hope it was lovely, hon!!

Thirdly (yes, that's getting old), how about some pics of my kitten? Here... )

She's gotten so big (but still pretty small) and she's still as crazy as ever.

Um...OH, I watched Glee and ADORE it, can't believe I resisted all summer to watch it.

I also caught some clips from the President's speech last night. I haven't talked much about the health care debate (here in the states) but I'm still not up to talking about it because just thinking of some of the antics going on just piss me off so frickin' much. (I am completely with the President on reform, although I don't like him potentially open to dropping the public option)

HAPPY THOUGHTS

Yum...my mom and I made homemade chocolate chip cookies, they were SO GOOD. Yeah, my mom has this recipe book that was her mom's that had been put together by a church group and has so many recipes in it. I think I'd like to search through it and maybe make some more cookies.

And I will not promise, but I really want to comment more to you guys, so I'll try!
meganlynn09: (Default)
So, last weekend, I finished a book that I had been wanting to buy and read for a long while.

A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini and I HIGHLY recommend it for those that feel up to reading a story about two women struggling in Afghanistan over the past 30 or so years. It's pretty intense but once into it, I couldn't really put it down.

And now I think it's time I finally just go ahead and open up Persuasion (Jane Austen).

Or finish that Supernatural fic that I may or may not be writing. *sigh*
meganlynn09: (Default)
GAH, I fucking hate the news lately. RAGE GRRRRR.

Christ, it's just...I can't talk about it. How about what I really wanted to post...

I owe some belated BIRTHDAY WISHES to two of my lovely, lovely f-listers: [livejournal.com profile] angdelia and [livejournal.com profile] marcasite and a bit of an early birthday wish to [livejournal.com profile] veronica_a!!

*huggies*

I have enjoyed some downtime with my mom, she was on vacation for over a week. Me and the parents went up to the Florida Aquarium which...probably is just a little more fun at 12 instead of 22. But still, it's a beautiful place with awesome marine-life and a Goliath Grouper and they have the Coral Farm for education and as a restoration project.

AND I was looking through Doctor Who caps because I really want to get back to iconning and Martha is so easy (:D) and I was found wondering: Why did we never see this jacket again? (We saw it in very brief flashes during "Human Nature")

Photobucket

It's so much better than that red one!

OH and subject quote belongs to the mood ;)
meganlynn09: (Default)
Whoa, whoa, whoa, what happened? Just over two weeks ago I said I'd actually be around. And then I wasn't. WAT. That just happened.

ANYWAY. I'm catching up on TV stuff, I'm watching Ashes to Ashes and then like [livejournal.com profile] quiet_fractures some of you have pushed, I'll watch Being Human. Plus, I'm still watching my American shows.

Speaking of...The Battlestar finale... )

I've also somehow, very mysteriously, gotten back into Heroes. The hell?

And for some personal news, I got to spend last weekend with my grandmother and her sister, my aunt Jane/Faye/Rose/Whatever the fuck she wants to go by. Ah, three things I learned:

- I have a really small bladder.

- Older people don't know or don't seem to know/care about names. But they sure as hell know (or seem to know) if you're Mexican, Italian or apparently Irish (which I'm not, actually, and baby name sites tell me that Megan is Welsh).

- And I now know of a traveling Christian group that uses concrete as a prop.
meganlynn09: (Default)
OH my lovely f-list, how many of your birthdays have I missed?!

I haven't been paying attention to dates for a while, so I haven't been keeping up, and I'm sorely sorry for that because I adore you all so much :D

So to [livejournal.com profile] pheonix_iz_me, [livejournal.com profile] ninnui, [livejournal.com profile] trialia, [livejournal.com profile] cah215, [livejournal.com profile] wordsalone, [livejournal.com profile] surreallis, [livejournal.com profile] aerynvala, and [livejournal.com profile] mlsky: I hope you all had amazing birthdays (if you made birthday posts on your journals, I may have already wished you this! - it bears repetition though)!

Aside from those tv posts and picspam, I feel like a bad LJ participant. Dunno, I'm here! And I'll be posting more probably.

So, I'll be posting another picspam very very soon ([livejournal.com profile] picspammy is frakking addictive), I have a new fic! Needs betaed, what's new. I bet y'all can't guess who it's about. ;)

Probably another tv post soon. And I'm sorely tempted to start a political post to discuss something/anything with you guys 'cause you all are so brilliant and it's fun picking your brains.

BOO!

How is everyone? Good? I feel like I'm disappearing. Remember when I made sure to make one post a day? HAHAHA. I should talk more about something.

Like TELEVISION!

Hahaha.

Let's see, Heroes is done, I'm not watching it anymore, I thought I was over Lost, but I'm not because I'm watching it again this season. It's frustrating to me but I CAN'T STOP WATCHING AGAIN.

And disturbed because I think they've killed off a disproportionate amount of women to men and I hate that a lot.

I'm watching too many shows. Although, luckily Psych is done for a while, and BSG is almost over. Sorry, but that's starting to feel like a trainwreck and I'm a little relieved it's almost done. I'm really sorry to say that.

Did I hear correctly that Burn Notice is only a few more episodes? That'll be one less show to record for a while.

Anyone watch The Closer? Because every time I do, I think fuck Jim Halpert, I want a Fritz Howard.

AND, I'm adding Law & Order: UK, because hello, Freema and Jamie.

A few thoughts jotted down about that... )

That was useless, heh.

I'm gonna go make homemade chicken noodle soup. YUM.
meganlynn09: (Default)
Hi guys! Haven't posted in a few days, felt I needed to :D

- Ocean's Eleven is on TV, I so love this movie. I don't know why. I could watch it all day though.

- I suppose you all know about that plane that landed on the Hudson River? How amazing was that? I'm in awe of that pilot and obviously so glad that everyone made it out relatively alright.

- There's still no point to Smallville, is there?

- OH, I still haven't watched the new episode of Battlestar Galactica and I love you all for your lj-cuts. I'll be watching it tomorrow, we'll see how it goes.

- I was surprised to see a headline about a Fox News anchor arrested in FL on AOL, and when I checked it out was even more surprised that I knew who it was. This guy was on my TV all the time. That's my local Fox channel. This is him on a good day. Fucking hell, I've no idea what happened with him, I really liked him.

- So, I've told you guys that I really like Gwen on Merlin, well, someone else does too. And they've done their homework. Over here is a pretty comprehensive essay about the many different Guineveres of the Arthurian legend. Fascinating read, even if you don't watch the show and you just like the story of King Arthur itself. Although, at the same time, it's mildly disheartening because I feel they really fuck Guinevere over. Here's to keeping my(our) fingers crossed for Merlin.

- I'm really excited for Tuesday. It'll be the first inauguration that I watch live, and it's gonna be great. :D:D:D


"Do you moisturize?" Heh, sorry, I'm gonna go back to watching my movie.

AHHHHHH

OMG YAY, I got my Firefly DVDs today. *bounces around* So happy.

Also, I've totally not commented on the new Doctor announcement, have I? heh But then I thought, what's there to say? YAY, NO MORE TEN? I already had that moment. I don't know who "the new guy" is (should I censor his name? Is it being kept a surprise for some of you?), so I have to wait to really say anything. Can't properly judge someone as the Doctor until...they are the Doctor.

Oh fuck. That's a whole year from now, isn't it? Whew, as if I wasn't already happy to be out of that fandom!

Just a quick other thing about the Doctor Who announcement... )

And...why is it my first reaction to a new show/fandom/whatever is TO GATHER ICONS. I'm gonna spend the next week collecting Merlin icons.

Whew!

Oh man, you guys, I just finished watching the last 3 episodes of True Blood. FUCKING. FINALLY. It was interesting, there were some things picked up and some things dropped that I didn't care for, but eh. I hadn't guessed who the murderer was, so good job TB. Time will tell if I'll be curious enough to watch S2.

Now, I have all of Little Dorrit to watch and when that's finished, YES, OKAY, I will watch Merlin.

But there will be hell to pay if I don't enjoy it! AHAHAHAHA, you all know I'll eat that shit up.

OH and, OMG, I just re-watched most of North and South and wow, I adore it so. I can't help but wonder why I dislike Guy on Robin Hood so much, is Richard Armitage such a good actor that I can really pin a difference between the two characters and like one and not the other (can you tell I'm not so used to that)? Oh, Richard. ♥

I'll give those on my f-list that haven't seen North and South some pretty good (pictoral) reasons to watch it tomorrow. ;)

And totally random - I have 12 icons of Martha Jones - alone. That's not counting the ones were she's with someone (which I believe numbers 4 or 5). Wow.
meganlynn09: (Default)
No, no, OMFG, NO.

STOP FUCKING WRITING THEM THAT WAY.


He's not fucking British. She's not British, they don't talk that way!

Ahem, when I read fic about an American show, I can overlook the occasional British spellings, but I cannot overlook when they say something THAT AMERICANS DO NOT SAY. We do not end our every sentence with "Love", we don't really address our significant others like that. There's a reason "Baby" is so overused on American shows.

Some of us go to great pains to ensure we're writing for a fandom correctly. I get a beta when I write for Doctor Who, I'm begging that you return the favor. I go pretty easy on fics, but not when they completely ruin the mood like you do.

Yeah, this isn't about any of you on my f-list, I don't think you guys know how to write bad fic :D Sorry, it's just annoying to get into a fic and realize that they didn't catch the little things. I have never called a flashlight a torch in my entire life, I thought that was pretty basic.

Although it's amusing when they use words that I don't think I've ever heard before. But then, I think I might just live a sheltered life, heh

/pointless rant over

*goes back to staring at mood theme*

Hi you guys! I'm so exhausted right now, but I felt like posting :D

Mostly because I wanted to share my WTF?! feelings about something.

So, I mentioned in my post the other day that I'm re-watching Firefly and I'm nearly done and I just remembered that well over a month ago I was pledging to watch my S3 DVDs of The Office and just...stopped.

I, I don't know what happened. Did "The Merger"/"The Convict" kill me as much as I thought when I watched them? Or did the fandom kill me? Most likely the latter as it's driving me bonkers.

I will probably start up watching that again soon. Once I get over my renewed Firefly glee :)


Also, I hate to do it, but I wanted to update this moodtheme. I adore this one with Rose and Martha, but I was thinking of making it, maybe, Nine and Martha, or Donna and Martha.

OR NINE, DONNA AND MARTHA. heh

Any ideas?
meganlynn09: (Default)
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?

I'M BORED

So effing bored. Some thoughts:

- Took my dad to see Indiana Jones for Father's Day. Um...I rate it higher than "Temple of Doom" and that's all I got.

- My mom loved Shia LaBeouf. I just kept thinking of Even Stevens.

- My mom was watching one of those entertainment programs, and they brought up "Secret Diary of a Call Girl", which was pretty awesome. Still need to watch that. Also, people, tell me, is Billie really pregnant or is this one of those she's married now, so we're gonna hear she's pregnant for the next two years?

- Awww, my dad has a crush on Martha/Freema Agyeman.

- I truly, truly, truly hate Florida in the summertime.

- I give up, I'm watching the two, no, THREE, episodes I haven't watched of Doctor Who. I'll let y'all know what I think when I catch up. BECAUSE I KNOW YOU ALL ARE SO WAITING FOR MY OPINIONS! :D

- *sigh* I'm getting the crap kicked out of me by THREE FUCKING FANDOMS. Tell me, point in the direction of a show that's not full of all this?! No, forget it, I'm going back to watch my Wonderfalls DVDs over again. And taking a page from Jaye Tyler's attitude book: BITE ME (aimed at the fandoms, m'dears).

SOooo, bitter. Okay. I'm just gonna find some happy making stuff.
