Vampire Diaries and I have been starcrossed this season, which is why I haven't been posting much. The first episode premiered when I was on a honeymoon cruise in the Caribbean, and try as I might, there turned out to be no way to watch it on that torture prison of my own design boat. Internet access was charged by the minute and the television ( Read more... )

I can't believe that I am going to say this, but . . .  I want to recommend that people start watching Hart of Dixie? It's been my secret shame show this year, the one that I watched devotedly but would never, ever think about thrusting upon someone else because this was something between me and my psychologist.

Oh, Thursdays. You are the most superior of days! I came home today in the worst mood due to general work fuckery, and I was like, that's it, pretty sure it's just gonna be all darkness and villainy from here on out.

I meant to do a recappy post thing much earlier than this, but my subconscious has decided that my life isn't spontaneous enough and we should play this hilarious game where I forget my keys and lock myself out of the apartment at inopportune times. Keep in mind that in my seven years of upstanding key-ownage and apartment living, I have only done ( Read more... )
