Today is not my day

All in all, today has been a sucky day.

Bad stuff:
  • No Venetian Heat. Damn! If I were religious in any way I'd *pray* for a decent movie role for JM. He so needs to do something different.

  • My idea of writing a story to sponsor [livejournal.com profile] lordshiva turned out to be problematic because I hadn't considered copyright issues. (mental note: first think, then post)

  • PMS

  • A very annoying email from a RL friend who told me that it gets on his nerves when I get all fannish and that I'm insensitive and a bad friend for not noticing and then respecting his lack of interest in all things Spike. Bah. Just what I need.

  • My back aches.

  • I ate too much and the wrong things

  • My Carnivale 1x02 file is corrupt, so I have to dl again

  • Didn't write a thing

  • Lacked the energy to do anything constructive

  • Watched QAF (Hate Ethan!)


Good stuff:
  • Wonderful feedback for Wake and String Quartet

  • Hubby put money into my writercon piggy bank (twice)

  • Went to see a bonfire with the kids (fire pretty)

  • [livejournal.com profile] ladycat777 is writing more One, Two, Three, her marvellous Spike-gets-turned-into-a-girl fic. Squeee!

  • Read 25 pages of Anita Blake

  • Watched QAF (loved how Emmet tore up the cheque for a million bucks)

  • Daughters were ever so cute today. Katharina is growing up so fast!


Okay, maybe it wasn't 100% bad after all. *sigh*

Cracking up here. I hate Ethan, too. I wasn't much of a fan of Dr. Dave in Season 1, either.

I'm glad your day wasn't 100% bad, but sorry that any part of it sucked. May today be better.

Oh, I liked Dr. Dave - probably sheer sentimentality, since I liked him in that abysimal Kung Fu thingie with a fat and old and pathetic David Carradine - which I still watched more than 20 or so episodes of. So, I liked David better than I currently like Ben, and why is Michael always falling for Mr. Perfect? He really IS looking for a daddy/hero kind of lover. Ick.

But Ethan.... dunno why, haven't seen much of him yet, but something about him puts me off.
My favorite characters are Brian (duh), Emmet, Vic, and Debbie. Ted I can barely stand, Michael bores me with his doe-eyed look. Justin is cute when he isn't dim. I like his mom. All in all it's a nice show. Oh, and I loooooved George - although it was so predictable that he'd die during sex. At least he died happy. :-)

I'm babbling. I ought to go to bed. Almost 4 am here. Have to get up in about 3 hours. nite nite.

I forgot about George--he was a great character. I love Brian and Emmett, Debbie and Vic, and Justin (although he can be whiny, I think he's great for Brian). I adore Ben, I think he's great for Michael. I love Lyndsey, have a love/hate thing for Melanie, can't stand Ethan (that chin hair creeps me out--somebody buy that boy a razor), and constantly change my mind about Ted.

I'd love to hear your opinion about season 2 as a whole after you've seen it all. Of the three, it was my least favorite. I loved season 1 and I really liked season 3 (although I was unsure at first). Season 2 had some great moments but as a whole I liked it the least (probably because of Justin/Ethan - ick!).

God I hate Lindsey - she's so manipulative... I adore Mel though. She's snarky and a fighter. I admire that.

As for Ethan. The chin hair doesn't freak me out. I don't know what it is....

Did you read the Queer Survivor story eliade rec'd in her LJ. Fun, once you get past the first chapter.
