Jan. 4th, 2009
If nothing else, I should do that end-of-year meme I always do considering it's, you know, January 4th. Oy. ( 2008 in review. )
I finally ran into my super yesterday and was able to give him his end of year tip (my first time ever doing that!). We talked for a little bit and then he wished me a Happy New Year and held his arms out. I was like, uh, okay, and so we hugged. It was weird yet adorable at the same time. LOL. He's such a sweetie. Have I mentioned I am happy to be here?
Other news in brief:
Confessions of a Teen Idol is AWESOME. Seriously, you need to check that shit out. Eric Nies has LOST HIS MIND.
Rock of Love 3 is OFF THE CHAIN, as the kids say. It also featured something that may just top someone shitting on the floor in Flavor of Love 2. Well, I'm not sure anything can top that, but this chick tried. ( Cut for the morbidly curious. )
Gotta love seeing Sharon Osbourne smack a bitch.
The new Doctor Who: eh. He does not pass my attractiveness standards so I will not bother watching. Which is fine, as I didn't really want to anyway and that's one less TV show to worry about. I have been laughing about the fandom explosion over his being so young, though. It's pretty simple, really: the Doctor only has 12 generations, yes? And he's number 11? So they need some guy who's young and hungry and hasn't done much who will be INSANELY GRATEFUL and will stick around for many many seasons, instead of someone who is established and in demand and who will leave after a couple seasons to go do Shakespeare or whatever. ;) It's a business, folks. Ah well, despite this seeming to further confirm my suspicions that the Doctor will be turning into Captain Kirk, I really do hope he's good for the sake of all of you who will still be watching. Let me know how it goes.
In more pressing fannish news for me, I finally caught up on the BSG webisodes, hence I felt the need to upload
airings' awesome icon. ( Little bit about that. )
BTW, I believe I will be doing that bsg_100 idea, so more on that very soon. Thanks to everyone who participated in the poll!
I also finally watched the last episode (but not last forever yet, right?) episode of Dirty Sexy Money. ( Hrm. )
yahtzee63 wrote a V story for Yuletide! Eeeeeee! It is Ham Tyler POV but it's also about Juliet and it is awesome and it is here. And
jesshelga recced this Calvin & Hobbes fic, which may be the most depressing thing I have ever read. You've been warned. In brighter news, you can find a Scully/Kara Thrace fic (with underlying M/S and K/L) here. Thanks to
dashakay for that rec.
Boeing Boeing closed today. Along with a lot of other Broadway shows closing this month. It's kind of amazing how many are closing right now, wow.
Hey, John Taylor of Duran Duran is going to be on Samantha Who. I know some of you will be excited about that.
Article on Kristen Wiig in NYT today.
CakeWrecks has pictures of some awesome dragon cakes today.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
nicole_anell! Hope it was a great one.
And yes, I am among the legions who does not want to go back to work tomorrow. Especially since I have a doctor's appointment, too. Happy New Year. Sigh. OK, time to play some more Guitar Hero before bed. (I made it to Hard, woot!)
