Jun. 13th, 2006 10:24 pmSo wait, Sam and Dean Winchester go to Chicago and don't meet up with a Mountie or anyone named Ray? That's what my people call a MISSED OPPORTUNITY, KRIPKE.

Oct. 27th, 2005 11:51 pmToday was my last day at uni (GOD it's nice to be a student. Except for pending assignments). So it was my last chance to ask Cute Girl from Contemporary Medievalism Seminars what her lj is. She is the only person, in three years of uni so far, that I know for sure poked around in my corners of fandom (I've had my suspicions, never before confirmed). Well, goodbye Cute CM Girl! I hope you happen to randomly stumble upon this post. I'm not a stalker!
I am SO CLOSE to finishing Mists of Avalon! SO CLOSE! There is not one. single. character. in this book that is lighthearted. EVERYONE has issues big enough to hang an entire ongoing epic fantasy series on. I can't decide whether it's intense or infuriating.
------
Aw! Ray's "dorky," "nerdy," and "geeky" moods all prominently feature his glasses. God bless the glasses!

Jun. 12th, 2005 04:52 pmJust watched Call of the Wild. Am so in love with RayK, he's just so vulnerable. The only thing wrong with this show is that the women are constantly shortchanged in the characterisation and plot departments...but it *is* a show about the guys, so I suppose it's understandable. Anyway, new Ray mood theme, courtesy ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Jun. 4th, 2005 11:36 pmThe Due South blooper reel has finally been put online!. If it's been available before I've never seen it. It's a pretty kingly beast, I laughed my socks off.
Terry made the greatest things for dessert tonight; little puff pasty rectangles glazed and baked till done; sliced horizontally & spread with honey and (slightly sweetened) cream. AWESOME. I am so making them next time I have a party. Between those, the porridge & honey (a beekeeper friend visited recently and brought a HUGE bucket with him, it tastes wonderful) for breakfast, great bread at lunch, and getting the icing bowl forlainy122's yummy cake, today has been a good day for eats.
Not such a good day for the essays, however. I even resorted to Stargate: Atlantis for procrastination (Battlestar Galactica has ruined me!).
PS: I hate it when scholarly books don't have adequate indexes. An index of names is not sufficient people! They have machines that can help you these days!

Dec. 8th, 2004 11:40 pmVarious things happened, seen, done. Can't remember most of them *has brain like Jarlsberg cheese*
Watched My Beautiful Laundrette last night. My liking for Daniel Day Lewis has mutated into the kind of emotion that has me writing JE + DDL 4EVA on all my notebooks. The ending was very wtf, like, why were the fifty or so plotlines not resolved AT ALL, but I went searching for answers and Roger Ebert tells me it's just a 'few weeks in the life of' so it really doesn't need to have an ending. I choose to believe him because Stephen Frears really is a good director and it's the only thing that makes sense.
Also watched Gods and Monsters again that I taped from last week. I scribbled out all the DDLs on my notebooks and wrote IANMCKELLENOMG instead. He had me slapping my thighs laughing (literally! I don't think I've ever slapped my thighs in laughter before. This is all very new to me) and crying alternately every ten minutes throughout the whole movie.
Also saw Two Brothers. Go watch if you like animals, the tigers are SO BEAUTIFUL. I was crying at the end and well in several spots because they are just SO BEAUTIFUL. They walk around and roar and play and just generally look BEAUTIFUL. Also Guy Pearce is there who looks almost as BEAUTIFUL, but top billing literally goes to the tigers because they are more BEATUIFUL. The plot and so on is not really BEATUIFUL but the tigers are, are least. I will have to buy the DVD to see all the makings of because I think it will be fascinating.
Got my signed Cerberus from Dave Sim last Monday, I think. I jumped on the bandwagon pretty late, I must say, but it was a great experiment and Dave is a funny and talented and generous guy who does weird things in the name of science.
More importantly I received in the mail DS Season 3 yay! Next to all my McKellen notebook scribblings I have written ALSO CALLUM KEITH RENNIE TEH SEX AND ALSO PAUL GROSS TOO PRETTY. More obviously a different show from the first two seasons than I expected, so much less gritty and more wacky. But still fun and funny and poignant and almost blingingly good-looking. Draco is more what my mental image of Dief looks and acts like than Lincoln and the Pilot dog (who is albeit wonderfully shaggy) and I love him to pieces.
Also buddy-breathing hahahahahaha!
