occasional updating for posterity!
- I finished Dexter season 5. I hope there will be fic forthcoming. (On the whole, I really really loved Lumen's arc. Not really a fan of the show in general, however.)
- Bridesmaids is one of my top 10 movies ever, especially if they do a director's/writer's cut.
- Finished the first draft of junetide (on DW) and now I'm buckling down on other projects: Skins Bang, casestory art... digging out my thesis. Turns out, Von Trier being a hilarious asshole at Cannes and reading the first reviews of Melancholia was what I needed to kickstart my brain. Course, now I'm a lot more excited about the 'analyzing Von Trier' part of the thesis and less about the 'I write shit' part. Ah well.
- Currently watching Game of Thrones, The Killing, United States of Tara & Parks and Rec. And Oddities! AHH THAT SHOW IS AWESOME. So far, the only summer shows I'm going to watch are True Blood (because I hate myself) and Degrassi (because I LOVE myself!) -- OH, and DAMAGES! I started watching DVDs of Fringe, liking it so far.
- If you haven't read In The Woods and The Likeness by Tana French (there's a third book, but I haven't read it yet so I can't officially recommend it), you REALLY REALLY SHOULD. Unreliable narrators, epic friendship... Cassie reminds me of Rebecca Locke mixed with Mel Sims. She's like... their French/Irish adopted baby.
- Really wanting a tattoo, but between paying all my various bills I don't think it's in the books unless I start trading sexual favors for ink. Trust me, I've considered it. If you know someone rich who wants to sponsor a ~tattoo virgin~ hit me up. Not kidding.
