10 Books in 2009

bookish
I can hear: Love You Til the End--The Pogues
I've seen quite a few people do posts like this, and I thought it was a good idea. I didn't pleasure read nearly enough in 2008, and I'd like to change that. Recs appreciated.

Well, this is weird...

I can hear: Ghost Town--The Specials
I realized today that I... I think I ship Uther/Gaius. :o I don't know how this happened. I was minding my own business, thinking idly about making caps of Arthur and Merlin and Lancelot, when WHAM! I found myself highly tempted to scour the comms for Uther/Gaius fic. And this isn't one of my crackstastic LOL ships. I actually see chemistry and potential. This is a very strange development.

Being Human and an Icon Meme
Jul. 12th, 2009 | 02:35 am
I feel: 
thirsty
I can hear: Just Like Heaven--The Cure
I decided to watch a couple episodes of Being Human tonight. It's been a while since I've watched it, so I thought a mini-marathon was in order. You know, I just can't decide who to ship on the show. While I like George and Nina, I also find George and Mitchell rather intriguing. I know I have some fans of the show on my flist. Do any of you have ships for the show?
And now, an icon meme.
1. Reply to this post, and I will pick six of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon glee.
( Mine are under here. )

2. By that same token, I'm sheryden on Dreamwidth. If you are on DW, feel free to add me. I'll add you back. If your name is way different here, though, drop me a comment on this post and let me know, so I know who I'm adding!
3. Fans of Sanctuary's resident vampire scientist, Nikola Tesla, check out this comm dedicated to him:

5. Ghost Adventures last night was a hoot. They went to Eastern State Penitentiary. I love this show more and more as it goes on. It's goofy and light and airy (and probably won't break my heart). Sounds like a win!

Okay, so here are my comments. They're not terribly well thought out... more like wordy, semi-coherent gibberish. :D

Just a reminder... I'll probably be a day behind most of you getting to see the new Torchwood episodes because of my work schedule. I would appreciate it if you would use cuts when discussing any juicy plot points. :)

betterthanlegos for pointing this out. It has MADE my 4th of July weekend!!!
WHY COULDN'T IT HAVE HAPPENED WHEN I WAS WRITING MY MASTER'S THESIS?!?! It would have made an epic conclusion.
Rob Liefield is having a major hissy fit over recent developments in X-Factor!
( Here are the highlights and an explanation of the whole thing for those who aren't familiar with comic books or are out of the loop. )

I hate to be the one telling those who don't know, but here it is: SciFi is changing its name to SyFy. Because they hate Science Fiction.

A few things...
Jul. 3rd, 2009 | 04:55 pm
I feel: thirsty
1. I'm contemplating making some brownies. The idea is sounding better and better, the more I think about it.
2. I have Torchwood: Dead Line waiting for me. I shall listen to it tonight--possibly while I eat a brownie. I e-mailed the link to Kelley. She should be pleased, as she is experiencing epic Torchwood Withdrawal. I'll comment on all the plays when I finish that one. It'll be nice to have something to comment on again.
3. I've become addicted to Ghost Adventures. It's really a fun show, and Aaron cracks me up. Poor guy, lol.
4. Kelley and I are supposed to go to the midnight showing of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. We were going to go to an evening showing, but we figured that since we're both insomniacs, we'll be up anyway!
5. I'm thinking about revising my tags so that all of the "tv" and "movie" and "book" fandoms are all listed under "fandom" in order to 1) cut down on tags and 2) make it less confusing when you have a fandom that crosses genres (like Star Trek, Harry Potter, LOTR, etc.). Thoughts?
