roxy: (coffee--no)

erg, i need more coffee.

I got home from work yesterday, ate dinner and went to bed about 6-ish--slept straight through, not waking up once. Scary.

After I finish Lodi,(soon, very soon!) I'll be busy on the SVBigBang, I hope, so there probably won't be any story at all here for a while. Besides the challenge, I'm feeling kind of empty at the moment. *sigh* No what-ifs at all.

Oh, *huggles* hon. I am reaping what I sowed last night, in the whole feelin' like crap thing, so. . . at least it's not your fault. *hands you big cup of java*

Same here, though I really gotta buckle down and finish CFMWH soon. Sounds like we're gonna get another crazy-ass, pain-ridden story from ya this August.

*rubs hungover paws eagerly. . . but not too coordinated*

But. . . no more Lodi? *whimper*

Where you misbehaving last night? If so, good on you--I was being an old fart. *sigh*

No more Lodi. Poor boys. I feel sorry for them myself.

I just went out (at 7:30--yes, in the morning. On a Saturday) with no makeup and damp hair so that I could procure for myself a four-shot mocha at the corner indie coffee place.

The straight-through sleeping? I kind of envy you that.

As to the no what-if's: any chance of a new fandom? *makes magic Leverage motions*

I love my shows, I love Leverage, but I'm not wondering what they're doing when I'm not looking, and I'm not wondering what they'd do if I dropped them into other worlds. That's reeeeeeelly scary!

[identity profile] emeraldsedai.livejournal.com 2009-04-18 03:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Funny, innit, fandom? You've summed it up nicely: there's enjoying a show, and there's totally invading the fictional privacy of the characters being interested in the characters beyond the plot.

It's not usually the best shows that generate the fannishness, it's the ones whose characters are better than their writing. Those ones need us. An element of sci-fi/fantasy seems to help, too.

So yeah, Leverage is awesome (and now, 95% more local!) and I can't wait for it to start up again, but I'm not really fannish on it either.

Hope your muse comes back with the riding crop real soon.

ah?

Your icon explains why I love Leverage so much! Is there a sweeter, more endearing guy than Aldis/Alec? His character on the show is adorable, and apparently he's that way in semi-RL, too. Throwing Christian Kane into the mix doesn't hurt--plus having female characters I actually like a lot, instead of tolerate.

Yes! Leverage has moved production to Stumptown! They started blowing up cars and shit the day before yesterday.

And Aldis Hodge is just fantastic! Having seen him both in Leverage and in some goofy Leverage promo stuff, I can look back on him as Jake in SPN and see that he's on the verge of busting out laughing the whole time.

Because have you SEEN The Hand Jobs?

[identity profile] roxymissrose.livejournal.com 2009-04-18 04:17 pm (UTC)(link)
OMG, I LOVE HIM EVEN MORE!!!!! MORE!!

I loved him even as Jake, something my niece can't seem to forgive me for...but it's Aldis! It's impossible to dislike him! *happysigh*

[identity profile] emeraldsedai.livejournal.com 2009-04-18 04:21 pm (UTC)(link)
While one does not particularly love Jake for killing Sam, let him be under never so much infernal persuasion, one cannot help generally loving him for the wide-eyed charm he evinces

wow, you were worn out! i hope you enjoy the bigbang writing (rather than suffering for it).

I have no idea why I was so tired!!

Oh yeah, at some point, it'll make me suffer...*G*

YAY you're doing the Big Bang, that's awesome! I can't wait to see what you're coming up with!

Your icon made me lol . . . I am slurping on a huge cup of coffee even as I type this!

Coffee, man--it makes the world go 'round. And round and round...*G*

so what do you do for fun and laughter when you're not writing wonderful things for us to read? Why you empty? You seem full of life

[identity profile] roxymissrose.livejournal.com 2009-04-18 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, no, no, just the ideas part of me is empty! Which is scary, because that doesn't happen that often! Not to worry--something will pop up--and if not, then I'll just be a reading fool! :)

*whew* hehe hey - are you going to the Vancouver convention in August? someone told me they were and I can't remember who it was

[identity profile] roxymissrose.livejournal.com 2009-04-18 08:52 pm (UTC)(link)
I wish! Only if some unknown filthy rich relative kicks the bucket and leaves me a fortune!

[identity profile] cha.livejournal.com 2009-04-18 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)

:) it's beautiful up here - we actually live in a semi-desert! which is kind of odd - we're the only one in Canada.

Sorry - I'm babbling.

Maybe you're not empy at the moment, maybe you're resting up for Big Bang. You've been doing a lot of writing lately. Maybe the Muses need vacation time. They need to relax and save up their energy for whatever you throw at them next.
