May. 24th, 2008 02:40 pm-- Five Awesome Movies Ruined By Last-Minute Changes: The alterations to I Am Legend continue to piss me off.
-- Keith Olbermann's special comment on Clinton's remarks about RFK's assassination and how it relates to her not leaving the race. I'm sure she didn't mean, "I'm staying in the race just in case Obama gets assassinated," but it's not really a good thing that that was the first thought that popped into my brain when I read the quote, and it makes me exceptionally uncomfortable.
-- Just in case you missed it, I posted fic yesterday! For the first time in weeks if not months, y'all. I'm all proud of myself. :)
I really think I needed to write that, though. I love the novel I'm working on to bits, but it's not high on the comedy scale -- it's pretty much post-apocalyptic and the main character's not exactly a comedian, so ... *shrugs* -- and, hell, I have a much easier time writing comedy than I do drama. I've spent the past couple of days trying to come up with an original idea I can write the same way, so hopefully I'll be able to do something with it because that was way too much fun.
-- Anybody got any fandom recs? With the summer hiatus upon us and all of my reality shows not starting for a month or two, I need new stuff to watch. I've got Terminator and Reaper to catch up on, and I'm going to do Life On Mars and probably Gossip Girl after that. I'm partial to sci-fi and fantasy, and I've already tried BSG but I can't really get into it. (I know, right? It starts with an apocalypse and yet, I've got nothin'.)

-- I still haven't gotten to see this week's Top Chef or Step It Up And Dance, but ( spoilery comment for SIUaD. )
