summer_skinLet's see. My right eyebrow has been twitching, along with my left eye. Student loan's on my ass a bit, but my application for debt relief is still in limbo and has been since fucking JUNE. My lawyer is trying to figure out how to proceed with my case with the accident and I don't know if there's anything to help secure a bigger settlement than the base limit (UGH, so irritating since I'm still in pain). Work is ... work, I guess. It's stressful enough but not HORRIBLY right now. But still. New girl still hasn't clicked with me and even after a month she's still NOT GETTING IT. I can't afford to see my therapist and I'm not doing well right now, mentally. Luckily I told my doctor on Monday and he said there's an in-clinic therapist who I can see for free because I'm a patient there. Hallelujah.
ON the bright side of things I've fallen in love with Sons of Anarchy (see below), The Vampire Diaries is awesome at the moment, Gracie's doing well, I just bought a 32" flatscreen LCD TV for $100 today (and it's not stolen!) and I get Thursday off so I can enjoy Misfits in peace! A lot of the high points in my life right now revolve around TV, sure, but I'll take them where I can get them.
Bought my ticket for the midnight opening of HP, too. That should be super fun, even though it looks like I'm going alone. Then the week after is my Christmas party at work so a friend is coming to that. I'm looking forward to that.
Someday I'll post something that isn't caps.
I really threw myself into this show over the past week and have mainlined every single episode to this point, catching up in time to watch 309 a couple nights ago in anticipation of tonight's new episode.
I don't know where I fall on the fandom spectrum in terms of what and who I like and what I don't like. I've read a couple things here and there by people but for the most part I've stayed away from the fandom aspect (what little there is, damn! Where IS the fandom for this show?!) because I didn't want to spoil myself. I feel like I've been spoiled and of course I see the show differently because I've had such an insulated exposure.
I love Jax/Tara. This season has been torture with them being on the rocks and her being all distant and Jax's attention being divided by Abel's kidnapping. I love that she's adapted to his life and has been trying so hard to BE in his life because she loves him. It's like Gemma said, you love the man, you learn to love the club. Their relationship is the thing I love the most, I think, and secondly the bond of brotherhood within the club.
Second season when Jax was heavily questioning the club and the aftermath of Donna's death was weighing down on everyone was a bit hard to get through, especially since the writing got to be a bit circular until the point when the rest of the story could happen, as triggered by Gemma revealing she'd been assaulted. Bobby going between Clay and Jax four or five times saying, "I don't know what's going on between you two, but the club is noticing and you guys have to get your shit together," was annoying near the end.
I love Bobby, thought. I think he's adorable. I like Tig and I find Happy appealing, especially now that he's back in the club. Chibs is okay and I super miss Half Sac. That I know these guys' names is amazing because until a couple nights ago I really wasn't 100% on Chibs' name, thought he was Chips. Which isn't that far off, sure, but still. Another side effect of watching everything so quickly for me. I always miss things when I'm watching because I'm REALLY watching and missing the things like, oh, you know, names and shit.
Cherry's okay, I guess. Her reappearance in 310 was a bit late coming but I don't like how she really... I don't know. I didn't find her forthcoming enough to win my trust and she wasn't in Charming long enough for me to come around to her there, either. Not to say I don't like her but I don't think her character was fleshed out the best it could have been.
Another thing that's not fleshed out? The whole kidnapping thing this season. One of the few comments/opinions I've seen about the show was about this season and how it's very boring and dragging because of this kidnapping thing, which is what I've been thinking all along. It's pretty bad when I've had the first eight episodes of the season that I mainlined in a couple evenings and even I thought it was SO SLOW. It's like the Clay/Jax beef from season 2. Until Gemma let the info go everyone ran in circles until something could happen FINALLY.
It's also very angry-making because you KNOW the priest is bad news and you know that O'Neil is in on it and Jimmy's a bastard and shit and even the MC realizes but no one fucking DOES anything. Add in the complication of the IRA and that they have ties to that as well and this and that and ALL THIS FUCKING BULLSHIT and you just want to firebomb everyone to make something happen! Oh, my bad. They DID firebomb them and pretty much nothing happened.
Because a couple people are dead but that fucking priest is still spewing his bullshit. UGH.
I really just want Jax to get Abel, they go back to Charming and Jax releases the motherfucking sound on the dude that's got Tara (can't remember his name). I DON"T EVEN KNOW. I'm sure Tara will keep the baby once she does get released (and watching those three that stayed behind in Charming is fun. They're the probably-not-supposed-to-be comic relief at the moment).
I love this show, but I find the storylines to be so circular until something HAPPENS. I just want Jax and Tara to play house and kill people. Is that too much to ask!?!
Also, if I was Gemma and saw my son cuddling up to his half-sister, even in a potentially-sisterly way, I'd've been letting him in on the family secret ASAP so at least he could put a kibosh on things without letting her know what all went down.
