Well, that happened. I have thoughts about the end of the tenth season of Supernatural, but I don't really have feelings about it, which tells me something has changed in my relationship with the show this year, since last year I was still touched by the "I'm proud of us, Sammy" moment ( Read more... )

I stopped to get a chai latte on my way in to work this morning as an It's Finally Friday treat, and saw a big sign that said WE SHIP! Without considering other options, my brain immediately queried, "Oh, who?" Admittedly a chunk of this was not having had my morning tea yet. It also reminds me of when someone else once posted about how early ( Read more... )

I'm completely shocked at the news that The X-Files will be returning to broadcast TV this year. What the hell? This is the kind of thing that just doesn't happen - except apparently now it does. I really, really hope that they tell good stories, and don't screw up like I maintain they did with the movie in 2008. Six episodes - surely they can ( Read more... )

I'm going to try posting occasionally this year about some of some of the fanworks that have stuck with me, and it seems like the first one is the best place to start.

According to my calendar, the semester that begins tomorrow at my "flyspeck university" is the one in which Rodney McKay will be teaching Scientific Ethics in the timeline for " ( Read more... )

This is the first episode review I've posted in real time in about two years, because I hadn't been tense with anticipation to watch it on the CW website the day after it aired for awhile. But I got caught up when the season nine DVDs came out, and wanted to experience this one with the rest of the fandom. Because even when I'm pissed off at the ( Read more... )

Gnome: An explosive blend of effervescent golden ginger and black peppercorn with sarsaparilla, gurjum balsam, nutmeg, gear lubricant, and smoke.wet:something spicy, probably the ginger and pepper ( Read more... )

I watched the pilot ep of Time Trax last night for the first time since about 1993, and at one point I sat straight up asking, "Oh my god, is that David Franklin?" And it was, it really was. A few years younger, but still good at being the "anything for you, boss" sidekick ( Read more... )

1. The return of cold. Yesterday morning I discovered I had dragged the heavy comforter up over myself in the night. Because it was 20F outside, and I refuse to turn the heat on when it was 86F last week, and I had to run my A/C to keep from melting. But I love being able to snuggle up under the covers, and cool weather in general. When ( Read more... )
