the status of my brain
Aug. 23rd, 2006 03:37 pmI have school starting tomorrow! EEEEP! I am so not ready for this, I can't even tell you. Seriously, my brain right can only handle watching OK Go on repeat.
For a week after VVC I didn't do anything (well, except for icons. I did make icons, yes), and then I realized I had school approaching at lightning speed and better hit the petal to the metal, ipso pronto, and so I have been writing these past few days in a desperate attempt to finish before tomorrow, which is perhaps a saving grace, although I am not yet done. I may finish tonight, I dare to hope. And such a silly, little, angsty wallow, it is, too. Little runt of a fic. :D Duncan and Methos are behaving quite well, I'm happy to say, and letting me hug them and pet them and squeeze them and call them George. Okay, maybe not so much with the last one.
I'm also reading, rather compulsively, historical romances, which is a tad embarrassing, but vastly amusing. Most are mediocre, I feel, but some are much better than others. I haven't read anything that grips me as strongly as a some of the P&P fan fic does, tho.
Another oddity in my life right now is that I've started rewatching the first few seasons of Star Trek: Voyager, which has come up on my netflix queue. ST:VOY is like viral, or something. I can never quite get rid of it, and it keeps popping back up, wanting to be played with, every two or three years. Very odd, but darn it if they aren't cute! I always forget how much I adore Chakotay and Tom Paris, until I watch an episode and then I'm smitten all over again. It's just about the doofiest show (okay, maybe there are doofier *looks at the SGA crowd*), but it's kinda soothing. I'm trying to decide whether to stop watching after Kes leaves or continue on. hm.
I'm also deeply amused by
astolat's descent into Wiseguy. Bwahwahaha. Never underestimate the power of Sonny Steelgrave. Or in this case, Destina and Barkley's awesome WG vid. heeeee.

Now I say, what a difference 10 years makes! Can you believe it's been almost ten years? I think I wrote that in 97? Wait just a minute... how old were you back than, young lady.
*VBEG*
