old movies and cleaning house
Dec. 2nd, 2020 09:22 pmWhy is there no fic for the movie Dirty Dozen?
Am just saying! The movie is slashy as hell (Charles Bronson and Lee Marvin, hell yeah) and it's been around for decades. Have I just lost my fic finding mojo?
Old movies are awesome. Am clearly doing a 60's war movie thing right now, watched the Great Escape yesterday. I think I have at least a couple more war movies waiting, so will have to see if I can find time to watch them as well.
Have also been cleaning the flat, mostly trying to organize all the stuff I have and deciding what to just throw away. Yeah yeah, recycling everything I can, but there was so much junk I just tossed a ton of it. I'm not exactly a hoarder, but I like pretty things and books and clothes and OMG I AM a hoarder, right?
*hides*

old fandom cynic
Jul. 11th, 2017 12:53 amNo matter how many times I've heard a rumor/watched a promising trailer and got disappointed by the end product, I can't help being all squee about the trailer for the last 10 eps of Teen Wolf. That show is so cheesy and silly and I've been watching it mostly for hot daddies (yeah) and now we get the trailer with Stiles and Derek and my fandom heart just melts.
:)
Well I need some kinda fannish fix now that there's no hockey. Yeah.

thinking about writing a journal again
Jul. 8th, 2017 12:45 amIt's been a couple of years at least since I last posted anything on a journal, any kind of a journal, and lately I've been thinking about starting to post stuff again. I think I have way too much time on my hands right now (on vacation) and I've spent way too much time thinking about the same things over and over again, so maybe I should just write my thoughts down to get rid of them.
Yeah. :) That'll work.
Writing here seems to prove I'm an ancient relic who doesn't want to modernize herself, but I've tried some of the newer arenas for being a fan and I can honestly say they are so totally not for me. I'm an old fashioned, a bit boring person who doesn't want to communicate in pictures and/or post everything about my life. So it's back to basics with a journal.
I'll most likely concentrate on fannish squeeing as always, but there'll be the usual whining about real life as well. As if I have a life...
Now I think I should go and get new icons. OMG who still uses icons?
/relic

Disclaimers: Don't know any of these people. It's pure fiction! Not mine, borrowed without permission, am not making any money. Please don't sue.
Summary: One hellish week (or so) during which there were three times Adam realized he couldn't read people (and grew as a person thanks to that)

Once again betaed by the wonderful

Written as a part of the 'write the bunny out of your head' -thing in a couple of days while being mostly blind. Notice that it's still betaed and though it's a cliche ficlet, I'm not calling it crap.
Contains spoilers to the top three of American Idol season 8.

Hopefully this is the last Adam -centric bunny! Should concentrate on the other guys now...

such a perfect day
May. 14th, 2009 01:15 amThis was today.:;
1. House, which I already said, was good.
2. American Idol, which wasn't bad. I liked Ryan's 'I'mnot amused' -look. Jealousy fics ahoy!
3. Being a nice gray civil dservant for a n hour or seven.
4. Angels and Demons. Not a bad movie. Tom Hanks without the mullet was good. Ewan McGregor in a priest's outfit even better. The robes -ripping and branding scene almost made me swallow my tongue. Yeah. *drool*
5. Finished another AI fic. Am now waiting for my dahling beta to appear online. *snicker*
6. I has Pepsi!
7. Tomorrow; AI results show, shopping, and possibly a visit to the hairdresser's. OMG my real life is so exciting!

In the middle of watching AI
May. 7th, 2009 08:23 pmI realluy shouldn't wacth this show. :) Now it's not just the Simon and Ryan show, but I'm.... er...
*facepalm* I'm having a bunny for Adam and Danny.
Why? Like.... What the hell is wrong with my head?
*wails*
[ETA_Er... The judges and Ryan really seem to be pressing for the 'dream finale' by pimping both Glambert and Hokey. This is weird. Really weird.

writing teenage style
Apr. 3rd, 2009 01:36 amHmm... I'm slipping back on the evolutionary ladder, listening to a melancholy indie song on repeat and writing a ficlet idea that came to mind.
It's actually working. Managed to squeeze out an angsty piece of angst and now I can't decide whether I just wrote something pretty neat or if I'm so depressed I want to slit my wrists.
This is actually fun! No wonder some authors manage to write dozens of short scenes every month; there's something immensely therapeutic about this.
*smirk*

Life season finale made me go all meep. [ETA: my bad, the *second to last* episode! OMG YAY!]
Now I want to read good fic about Charlie and Ted, and their weird living arrangement and maybe not hot sex, but I wouldn't mind reading that too.
Any ideas where to find it, or do I have to add some silly crap to my unfinished folder?

fic rec: 3.10 to yuma
Apr. 1st, 2009 04:45 pmOh man! I'm really glad this story was finished, though it would have been nice to get some sleep last night instead of sitting here and reading through the third and final part... :)
But that's actually not the writer's fault. I'm stupid! Should remember not to start reading stuff near bedtime.
Anyway, here's the link to the author's main page, you'll find the fic at the stories. Yes, it's an actual site and not LJ, the author's old school.
Reason to rec this fic: it's good! It's also a perfect fix it to the movie, and it portrays two very unique men totally in character. Go read it!

american idol and CSI NY
Mar. 26th, 2009 08:45 pmOh man! Oh man!
:D
( Spoilery stuff )
Tomorrow, I hope we get to see some of Simon's artistic side... *cough*
CSI NY... Oh man. I mean, it's good, but please gods I need that romance stupidity to end. Like now. Danny and Lindsay have grown on me (like mold or something), but this show can't turn into a romance whatnot.
Someone could strangle that certain someone with one of Flack's ties, and then the others need to prove his innocence, followed by a very cliched slash h/c story with lots and lots of sex. Yeah.
- Blah dee blah.
:D
