In case you haven't heard of Maurissa Tancharoen, I'll bring you up to speed: she's Jed Whedon's wife, and since Jed is the brother of Joss (creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, Firefly, and Dollhouse), she met up with Joss. Joss realized that little miss sister-in-law is not only a talented author -- she has helped him pen episodes in all ( Read more... )

I know I'm not the only one, but I'm a little upset right now. I know that I'm a geek when it comes to certain things. Great TV shows and book series are just a few of them. I'm a huge fan of escapism; I love to tell stories and to read stories that allow you to escape into a different world and live in it and breathe with the characters and feel ( Read more... )

Alright, alright, before we even get into this topic, I'm aware that I am a male and therefore my own rantings are partly self-hating on my gender. However, I don't really see myself in a rose-colored light and I think it's safe to say that the behavior I'm irritated with is something that I don't inflict on other people. If I did, I'd expect that ( Read more... )

But, shiny new icon which I actually kind of love. There's another "Dollhouse" pic which I put as my desktop background which is actually kind of sexy -- it's Echo in some imprint as a sexy girl applying makeup as she stares into a broken mirror. There are bullet holes in the mirror and in the background behind her there's all kinds of dead and ( Read more... )

Wowzas, peeps! It's been a little while since I've posted, but I'd forgotten what a time grind splitting school and work is! This semester I have some pretty sucky classes and really bad professors so I'm just waiting to get the hell into December so I can take my final exams and jump into the next set of classes. The good news, however, is that ( Read more... )

 And, of course, before I even start this, let's all acknowledge that "White Rabbit" by Jefferson Airplane is a fucking amazing song.
Okay, so I'm really excited about the new season of fall television that's coming up. For starters, in case anyone missed the outrageously welcome news, Dollhouse was renewed for a second season consisting of thirteen ( Read more... )

Hey, there. Yup, you heard right. It seems that no matter how many schools you start -- from middle school on up the first week just bites the monkey. Because it's always that darn syllabus talk, and it's so awful. Do you ever notice how time seems to just drag when you're doing nothing but when you're busy it flies by? That's why even though I ( Read more... )

It's insane how fast time flies, isn't it? It seems like just yesterday (or at least last week) that I was graduating from one school, and now I'm off to start another one, which I'll be in for at least two years. It's almost scary how short a time that really is, when you think about it. But don't think that I'm going to get all melancholy or ( Read more... )
