what I did this summer...

[lady_m2835]

First of all, can someone please explain to me who or what Claudia Black is playing on Life? Is she on more than one episode? Must watch. It's Claudia!!

I said I spent the summer/my lj hiatus reading, and I did. Some old favorites that I reread, but some new stuff that I thought I would share my enthusiasm for. I reread some Jane Austen,

It usually takes me a few days of cold weather after a hot summer to concede that it is in fact cold. I have to admit, yes, it's freezing with the wind blowing like that. I usually go around everywhere the first day of coldness going "It's not cold" to everyone I know. Because I still remember freezing my little fingers off in elementary school waiting for the bus in september.

I'm jealous of all the reading you got done this summer. Thanks for compiling all this fanfic for Lotr. I'm officially keeping this so I can look it all up.

It's the wind, well, that and it's FREEZING! I'm having to haul out all my fall/winter stuff quite quickly here.

It was a nice way to spend the summer when I wasn't working, I have to say. And, you're quite welcome! :) There's more, I just wasn't sure how interested anyone would be in LotR fic. I might do another post in the future, there's some really good non-romantic Éomer stories.

You're quite welcome.

Dang girl, you've been doing your LOTR homework eh?
You sound more geeky than me, and I have ELVISH tattooed on my WRISTS! ;) I love it!

I'm going to have to check out some of these books as I've been on a reading kick lately (am in the middle of P&P myself actually) and am always looking for new books to read.

The permanence of body art so eclipses my fic list in the geek factor! Though I've never shied away from admitting geekiness. But, dude, it's ink, permanently affixed to your body! Admit the geek level here!

Ahhh, Lizzy & Darcy! That might be my favorite book ever, they are certainly my absolute favorite book 'ship, far & away.

Claudia Black was supposed to play Charlie's ex-wife on "Life", but had to bow out of the role because of the pregnancy (she's expecting her second baby next month :) ) If you go here - http://www.nbc.com/Life/exclusives/documentary/index.shtml - NBC left Claudia's scenes in this documentary :) TV Guide magazine, in which Claudia's pregnancy was revealed back in July reported that the producers are going to find another role on the series for her when she's ready to go back to filming, of course if the show survives. I hope it does, it's really good.

Thanks so much. She's absolutely amazing in that last bit. Not that I expect anything less from her.

Boy howdy when you come back and decide to write - you really write :) I can't read your more recent posts since I'm not all caught up on tv.

[lady_m2835]

Well, my first post was about FNL, thus far. All of which you've watched! Heh.
