A list! I love lists.

Several things of passing interest, in no particular order:

--Well, blow me down, a Highlander rec, of sorts. Been doing some link checking for suzecarol, helping update the ROG-L links page and came cross In The Wind, a Homicide/Highlander story, which I read all the way through! There were a few things about her Methos I found out of character, but on the whole I liked it and I thought I'd share. Can't speak about the Homicide side, since I'm not that familiar with the show, but lack of knowledge didn't hinder reading, which is a good sign, I feel. It's not incredible, but there were elements I really liked.

--Connected to the above and as a direct result of said link checking, I find myself craving Methos/f fiction. Well, blow me down again! *g* It's all very new and strange. Actually, it isn't, 'cause I've always enjoyed well written gen/het, I just don't tend to seek it out. But now I'm asking if anyone has any good Methos/ofc recommendations? Anyone? Beuller? I'm about 90% sure I'm not going to find what I want, but hey.

--Despite slogging through some truly hideous fic sites out there and the discombobulated nature of the fandom at the moment, I am ridiculously fond of Highlander and Duncan and Methos. :) I want to hug it and squeeze it and pet it and tell it I love it and feed it....*ahem*

--I am only now reaching the half-way point in my current story. I feel like I've written a metric ton already. But I haven't. This is annoying. But, I think it's going well, so I suppose I must exercise patience. argh.

--I love the Star Energy commercial where the guy saves enough money from his utilities to buy a pony. And he brings it home to his apartment. And he calls him buddy. And he tries to teach him how to fetch. And the pony comes to him in the morning.

--I want a pony.

--Anyone out there wondering what the first one million digits of the square root of 3 is? 'Cause I know someone out there must just be dying to know. How about the first million digits of the square root of 6? 10? There's more, but I'll stop now.

--The Astronomy Picture of the Day is a favorite place to visit. Look how incredibly beautiful and strange our universe is! Look how awesome.

--I saw two movies last night that I highly recommend. The first was 28 Days Later, which freaked the hell out of me. And the second was City of God, a Brazilian movie about living in the slums of Rio De Janeiro, which taught me that gang warfare is the same no matter what the country, language, background, race, etc. Both movies play interestingly with narrative and story structure, as well employing different camera techniques with nifty editing. Both movies were extremely violent. Note to self: do not see two freaky, harsh, violent, and urban realistic movies in one night and then take the subway home alone at 1:00 am in the morning. Just, don't.

--Happy Birthday bethbethbeth! Hope your day went well and you got lots of presents. :)

--New York will open it's first Gay High School in the fall. I have mixed feelings about this.

--And on that note, go Episcopal Church!! Very exciting news. I love and admire everything elynross had to say about it.


Ta da! Okay, if I don't do some writing tonight, I'm in deep doodoo.

eta: The HL story linked above isn't slash, just so everyone knows. Although if you spin real fast and blink while reading, it comes close. *g*
