chat, and Californication

[kassidy62]

I have one episode left to go for the season, so don't spoil me! I know only about a guest appearance I'm really looking forward to. And on that note, I am SO SAD that there's only one story with this at A03:

Lew Ashby/Hank Moody

I do not understand!

If I've misspelled anything here, well, I've been doing that a lot. Not catching things. One day I typed a WHOLE OTHER WORD than I meant to type. I need new glasses, for one thing, but that's not all of it. I try to fix stuff but don't want to feel too uptight about posting here/ so the typos, they're here to stay I guess. Like flies.

I'm off from work today, and I have to get writing. I subbed a story to riptide and they said they'd be interested in a rewrite (I might have mentioned this already - I wrote a first person narrative, rare for me nowadays, and did way too much TELLING over showing) so I'm hoping to get a rough of the second version done by Monday, then get back on some other projects. I have about 10 different story ideas I'd love to tackle, complete with notes. I have a complete rough draft that's been sitting for a year without edits, a wip or two that have been sitting while I go off on tangents. Well, not strictly true- much as i love writing, there was the block I went through, now there's just stress and a lot to do - I'm of the age where I'm taking care of both my parent and my children, so. My boss died a couple of months ago, but so far his wife is keeping the business open. She's good to me, and understanding of the family stuff. Lots of change going on for me.

Just wondering what people are watching? Currently I'm watching Justified, Game of Thrones, The Borgias soon as it gets back (it's not back yet is it? I do the On Demand thing), Supernatural of course (wondering how Jeremy Carver will do as show runner - as Cass and I were talking about, Sera's episodes, her writing, are so good, but as show runner? I don't know.

Gonna revisit Starsky and Hutch Saturday at GNO (Shoot Out) and trying out Legend of the Seeker and Sons of Anarchy.

My friend loaned me the first season of Game of Thrones on DVD, since I don't get HBO. I got a Roku recently which lets me stream videos from my unintentional Amazon Prime membership to my TV, and one of the series that is free with that is Lost. Never watched it when it was on, but now I can watch the whole thing from beginning to end.

Legend of the Seeker sounds interesting; I've seen it talked about various places. Maybe I'll put that on my list of things to try over the summer hiatus of regular TV.

I still watch Glee, of course, whose fate will be interesting to see after half the cast "graduates" this year. And Fringe. House ending this year. But I'm really, really liking Once Upon a Time so far. And Walking Dead, of course.

unintentional Amazon Prime, lol. Legend of the Seeker is on your prime for free right now. I think I'm gonna keep watching Sons of Anarchy, too - the first few seasons are free - the Prime connects up right thru our PS3 and it's a really nice picture.

Borgias comes back on Sunday, babes.

Ashby was awesome and there should be way more slash, totally agree.

Watching right now (some of it not on atm, sadly): Californication, Sons of Anarchy, Person of Interest, The Vampire Diaries, White Collar, Sherlock, Doctor Who, Breaking Bad and The Walking Dead.

I am fighting off the urge to check out The Secret Circle because I'm kind of a Thomas Dekker and Gale Harold fangirl, but that show looks and sounds really stupid. Thinking about watching Game of Thrones because everyone who watches it seems to really love it and I really like Jason Momoa. I do wonder if I might be using TV sometimes to procrastinate like a motherfucker on all the other important things though, lol.

I loved Walking Dead this year, moreso than the first, and just watched the first episode of Sons of Anarchy, and plan to watch more. Game of Thrones - I think it's really good, but I had a hard time getting into it. I had to watch the first episode more than once and I kept thinking, why do I care about all these people, ha. Because there seemed a lot of people to be introduced to, but it's really about 2 families and so once I settled down I did really enjoy it. Jason Momoa is quite a savage in this show.
Yeah, about that procrastination thing, I'm only fucking up all my intentions on what I want to do, so ... not with watching tv so much as with other delaying tactics. I suck that way, but mostly I think I'm just tired.
