**Has anyone been watching In Plain Sight? We're a week or so behind the states, I think, and I missed the first episode, I THINK, but I'm watching what I THINK is the second episode and it's pretty good! A little hokey and uneven, and the script is pretending to be tough in a PG-13 way (Mary calls a guy's dick a 'wee wee' when she's trying to bully info out if him), but parts of the main character (Mary) remind me a lot of Veronica from VM. It's kind of like what might have happened if season 4 of the show had been set with Veronica in the FBI, only she's a US Marshall working for witness protection.

**Work kind of sucks right now. If I could work from home it would be amazing. The atmosphere is... not plesant.

**"Iris" by the Goo Goo Dolls is totally a Bella/Edward anthem. I re-read "Twilight" last week.

**I've finally started editing my Big Bang. What? I've got a week before I post. *shifts nervously*

**I'm reading "Veronika Decides to Die" right now. I bought it before I knew it was being made into a movie starring Sarah Michelle Gellar Prinze. So far the book is very... it rings true in a lot of ways. It's very insightful and written beautifully. It's short but I usually read on the bus or on breaks so I'm only about half way through right now.

**I found out last night that my laptop came with two remotes. First of all, a remote? Really? and second, TWO? One was in the box when I unpacked the thing and the other one was IN my computer that I just found last night when I was poking around. I haven't really figured out all the features this thing has, LOL.

**I cancelled my membership to zip.ca last night. I watched the second Resident Evil last night but I've had it for a couple months. I've had Syriana since JANUARY and another one for awhile, too, so I figured there was no point in continuing to pay. The selection wasn't the best anyway and you had to wait forever for the movies you really wanted.

**I've been updating my Twitter more. I'm Marishna over there, too, but I have no idea how to do those daily Twitter update summary things that get crossposted to LJ automatically (I think it's automatic?). My feed is here, if you're interested. It's pretty boring so far.

I feel VERY accomplished right now. VERY.

Last night I FINALLY posted the new application post at [livejournal.com profile] good_snicons here. I've also opened an application post for mods here. If you're interested take a gander, read through the obligations (really, they're very little once you get used to the comm) and apply, mmkay? I've also started a comm for the mods and I'm thinking of posting some sort of resource/tutorial post or something for there? All the icon resource comms I can think of as well as as many GOOD SPN icon tutorials that I can find. [livejournal.com profile] icon_tutorial is great if you're just starting out and wanting to figure out how to do some basic tricks and everything but there's only so many selective colouring tutorials you can see in a row before your brains leak out of your head.

Also, would it be wanky to compile a post, of sorts, explaining what the mods are looking for in applications and how we base our decisions?

I've also FINALLY posted the first challenge at [livejournal.com profile] spn_fanmix here. Check out the rules of the comm, join and jump in! Mind the subject line when you're posting fanmixes, please, as it makes filing memories easier and try to use tags and it'll be great!

I'm also working on my second meta (on folklore) for [livejournal.com profile] spn_resource but I'm having a little trouble pinpointing exactly what I want to write it on. Any ideas?

I've heard the latest spoilers for Doctor Who season 4 and I'm kinda really okay with it. I'm excited, even.

AND AND AND. I'm working on an Edward/Bella fanmix for the Twilight series. I want to read (good) fic and I'm tempted with trying to come up with writing something. I don't know if I'm behind that Browning girl being the ideal Bella. There's just something about her that irks me a little, although she's growing on me. I'm kinda behind Amber Tamblyn being her but there's something about her voice I don't really like. I think I'd rather go find someone totally anonymous and use her as my vision. Same with Edward although the french guy isn't bad, I guess. I dunno.

And now I think it's time for bed. It was 32 C or something stupid here today. I LOVE IT! It's not a humid heat like at home so I'm as happy as a pig in shit. It's supposed to get upwards of 38 this week! *flails*

ALSO! THIS MOODTHEME MAKES ME CRY.
