It seems that pilots are starting to be leaked onto the lovely internet. I've gotten my hands on Fringe and enjoyed it a great deal. It's a bit creepy and defintely interesting. Plus, it has Josh Jackson.

I'm a bit worried about getting too attached though. First, it's a show that I like on Fox. Rarely, if ever, does this work out for me. Going back a very long time with Firefly and Wonderfalls...a show airs just long enough to suck me in and then goes away. It's sad when Arrested Development got cancelled after three seasons (FAR TOO SOON) and I was thinking, "For Fox that's like running Law & Order."

Second, this is JJ Abrahams and I have a love-hate-love relationship with that man. He always manages to suck me into his worlds and creates characters I come to love...and then BAM. The shoe drops and it goes to sucktastic places and I have to decide if I'm strong enough to make it through (see 2nd season Felicity, 3rd season Alias, and 2nd season Lost).

Anyway, it's a good pilot and I'll watch it when it airs in the fall. I mean, it has Josh Jackson with scruff.

**

I also got my hands on the first two episodes of season two of Dirty Sexy Money. I haven't watched them yet, but I can't wait. I love this show. It's awesome and snarky and Brian is made of win. I'm so glad it's coming back for a second season...and hopefully, it will be a full season of wonderful stuff.

**

I'm going to try to do a bit more writing this evening. Maybe some prompts so that I can build up my confidence again before undertaking some of my challenge stuff. It's nice to finally have written something, especially since it was decent. Now I just have to keep the momentum going.

I'm slipping in my Supernatural obsessive love lately. Last week I didn't see the episode until Saturday and this week I might not get to watch it until then either. Normally, I start it at 9:20pm, late enough that I can watch without commercials...but the past two weeks, I'm either exhausted or watching the Flyers fuck up the last period of their play-offs game.

Yes, that's right. I love Flyers hockey more than Sam and Dean. I think it's because I've been a Flyers fan since the womb and Sam & Dean have only been around for three years. It's a dedication thing.

I'm hoping to do some writing this weekend. The last few weekends I've been hoping to do such things, but then I end up doing more house hunting and/or having flat tires and other fun things. And I'm so behind on the writing. And so out of ideas/talent/any ability whatsoever.

I really suck. My life has just been crazy in the non-good ways and it's affected my writing. ::Cries::

Any of you guys going to Winchestercon in Baltimore? Last year was a lot of fun and hanging with fangirls was awesome. I admit, I was a bit wary of what I was walking into, but it was so worth it.

I just watched two episodes of Iconoclasts on the Sundance Channel. I've seen them before as they're repeating seasons one, two, and three, but I adore watching it in the same way I like Inside the Actor's Studio. I find it so interesting to see two different public figures interacting. And it's fascinating to see these people's relationships with one another. Like the ones I watched this evening were Renee Zellweger & Christiane Amanpour, which was great, and Mario Batali & Michael Stipe, which was so awesome.

I like some REM music, but I'm not a huge fan, and despite my mother and sister's obsession with the Food Network, I know next to nothing about Mario Betali. That said, this was such a great episode. I walked away with a new appreciation for Michael Stipe.

Definitely recommend this show.

Today was a day of many errands and I have no idea where the day went. I'm having lunch with a friend tomorrow and then I'm hoping that I can just relax for the remainder of the day. How do weekends go so fast? I need some time to write. I need some ideas to write too.

I haven't even started my Supernatural Big Bang story. I know what I'm doing and I have a feeling that once I get into the story, it will flow...but the due date for the first draft is fast approaching and I would like to make the deadline.

First up though, I have to finish my bubbleficathon and femme ficathon pieces.

**

I see livejournal is at it again. And that would be why I bought the permanent account here after the first round of huge issues. Because I have a lot of paid time on my lj account from gifts from people and myself from awhile ago, but once it runs out, I don't think I'll be giving them any more money. And I'm not sure what will happen to mine, if I'll have the option of basic or be forced into evil plus accounts.

Anyway, now I'm off to find some season seven American Idol icons, specifically Jason Castro.

I have managed to get a new friend addicted to Twilight. Mwah. Now, if only I could get some more people to write me Alice/Jasper fic whenever I want. That would be lovely.

Okay, really, why limit it to Alice/Jasper fic? There is a lot of fic people can write me on my whims...hee.

**

I gave New Amsterdam two episodes, but I'm just not sure how I feel about it. It's not bad, but it's not good either. The guy is hot, but the character isn't nearly as interesting as you would expect from someone who has lived that long. However, I did like the relationships around him and how they are affected by his immortality.

Maybe one more week because right now all I seem to watch is Bravo Reality TV and American Idol.

**

I'm trying to get past this huge writer's block I'm suffering through. Though it's not so much writer's block as after being sick for so long and busy in real life, the idea of just sitting down and writing seems so foreign to me. I need to suck it up and get to writing.

I don't mean to neglect this journal. I really enjoy Insanejournal, but I'm completely terrible with doing the duplicate entries and I don't always have access to the program for it anyway. And then there's the fact that work has been kicking my butt the past month.

**

When do we get some new Supernatural? I know with the writer's strike there aren't a lot left, but I need some Dean and Sam Winchester. I'm obsessed. I accept this. I think about those boys a whole lot more than will ever be deemed healthy, but I'm okay with it. And I need my fix.

**

Writing this month has not been happening. I want to entirely blame work and the fact that I'm exhausted when I get home, but I'm also feeling drained and uncreative. I want to write some Alice/Jasper from Twilight. I have a table of prompts to do for them, so I really should try it. I want to write some Ellie/Captain Awesome from Chuck because they are adorable. And then, like the crazy person I am, I signed up to do Supernatural Big Bang.

My reasoning seemed sound at the time. Back when I started with fanfiction, I used to write longer type pieces all the time. It was all I really did and then I got out of that practice...I'm still wordy as hell, but not quite in the way I used to be able to come up with ideas, plan, and write. SO I wanted to make sure that I could still do it.

Except now I'm panicking and it's not even officially underway. Go me?

Anyway, feel free to hit me with prompts of any fandoms that I know and I'll try to do them. I'm not making any promises, but I need to do something to get my writing brain moving again. So prompts! Please!

Writing is going terribly at this point. I hate when I'm perplexed by what to write for a challenge. I end up working myself up into a tizzy and it's supposed to be a challenge, not anxiety-inducing. Must write my undermistletoe fic! And yuletide! And Supernatural holidays fic!

**

I downloaded a client so that I could do crossposting to this account and journalfen along with livejournal, but the problem is...I tend to do a lot of updating while I'm at work and I can't download the client...so all my entries end up different because I'm far too lazy to copy/paste anything.

**

Anyone know how to set up RSS feed/livejournal account for your del.icio.us account? We decided to set one up for [info]polyfandomrecs for those that like recs as we add them rather than in the batches we tend to do. Any help is appreciated. I can't seem to figure it out on my own. I'm a tool.

I have a few ideas for some Dean Winchester fic based on my [info]30_somethings chart, so I should probably get on that. Along with many other things. I can't figure out what my problem is lately. I'm behind on reading, reccing, and writing fannishly. It's like my brain has simply shut down.

And yet, I want to sign up for [info]30_kisses. Well, sorta. I don't think I'd be good at doing the table for one pairing/character. I'd want to just do the table of kisses, but for various pairings/fandoms. I wonder if I could email the moderator and see if I could just use her prompt table unofficially. Hhhmmm...

Oh, I need to be more productive.

I am trying to accomplish some writing this afternoon. It's not going to well, aside from Party TARDIS stuff that is just for me and [info]larah33's eyes at the moment. (Speaking of, Lara, do you think we should create a back-up of that over here?)

I really need to get to work on my Multiverse story, which is do in four days and finish up my Apocalyptothon piece as well. I feel bad about apocalyptothon at the moment because last year I worked my ass off on a good story (and I do think it's a good one) and I never got one in return. So while I try not to let it affect me, it sometimes does. Le sigh.

Also working on outstanding drabble, first kiss ficlets, five things, and abc pieces that still need to be finished. I have them all written down and I slowly cross them off as I go...so maybe two years from now I'll be caught up.
