What's up?

Apparently a new season of TV started and I missed it.  The only nights I can really watch anything are Mondays (dedicated to Syfy channel for now) and Wednesdays (which are TAKEN, even if by shows that annoy me).  Last night, I managed to get home from class an hour early, so I got out of the shower and managed to catch the last 20 ( Read more... )

Thank you and have a nice day....

I am curious about 'ships.  I find it interesting how we get very invested in fake relationships on a television show, or pretend two characters are secretly in love, or wish so hard for a certain relationship to happen that we write stories about them.

This fascinates me because I  do it too, even while making fun of those who would fervently ( Read more... )
