Jun. 11th, 2007 02:31 amI went on a mini-friending spree tonight. People who I've thought about friending before who I saw around earlier and had a burst of "why the hell not?" tonight.
I meant to post the first mini-challenge type thing over at![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
spn_fanmix today but I got distracted with capping 1x16 and dinner and then reading ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dontwaitup's fic Exact Change. It's the first BigBang fic that I've had a chance to read so far, even though I have a couple others open in tabs. Good thing there's still a few months of summer, eh?
So, last night's Doctor Who, ( hmm? )
I also watched the pilot for Hidden Palms a couple nights ago. ( I know I'm behind )
I'm almost done my re-watch of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I think I'm on "Tough Love" right now. The distance from the last time I watched the show (back four years ago when it was first run) and separation from fandom has done me good and I can approach the show more objectively now. There are a lot of things I think about it now that if I dared breathe such things four years ago I would probably have sent more than a few fangirls into a tizzy, including myself. But that's neither here nor there because I haven't finished watching yet. I don't know if I'll continue on to watch season 6 and 7 again online because the show ends in season 5 for me. Even though I enjoy select episodes from those two seasons I don't know if I want to put myself through all that again.
On another old fandom-related note- Canadian Queer as Folk fans? All... like- five of you on my flist? HMV is selling all the seasons right now for 35.99$ each which is AMAZING. Those sets never go on sale. I've already stuck our season 5 copy in the staff holds box because it's been 100$ for the past... oh, eight months or so and I was sure I was never going to be able to own it. So I can get it for 30$+ tax with my discount. Then I'll finally have the whole series and maybe that'll be my next series re-watch. I don't know if I've distanced myself from the show and fandom enough yet, so we'll see after I finish Buffy in a few days. I still have s2 of Dead Like Me to watch, as well.
Myspn_heraea fic is coming along when I actually work on it but I'm having trouble forcusing on it. When I actually sit down to tackle it I'll probably draw a blank. Lame.
