1) Around 2 p.m, all the sudden, I was well again. I got up and did yoga. And then I spontaneously did pushups. And my first thought was, "I've been replaced by a Cylon. This is awesome!"

2) One of my main goals when I got this lj was to keep my head down and avoid wank (because I am Polite and Southern) but this week I've been feeling very: please, SGA fandom, do not implode yet. I just got here!

3) Who wants to see some pictures of somewhatmiddleaged!Callum Keith Rennie laughing? I do! I do!. Link is to [livejournal.com profile] scriggle's livejournal, which I hope s/he does not mind.

He has dimples.

4) The AU I was not going to write is a concussion grenade and a FOX news scrollbar away from completion. I spent about three hours yesterday under a tree scribbling away at it, which was very pleasant, because most of the rest of my life happens at my desk right now. Finals, please get here so you can be over and I can turn off my computer and leave my house. Or at least pretend I'm going to. I guess I've only got one more semester to enjoy wacky finals behavior, so I might as well embrace it.

I enjoy how "writing enormous piles of fic" is something that stays on my to-do list during finals, but "go to grocery store ever again" and "delicious life-giving sleep" are things I just don't have the time for.

5) I spent a little too much time with my linktracker today, and do you know that about one in two hundred story-readers leaves a comment? For some reason I always thought I was one of those Few Special Lurkers. No, it turns out we are legion!

Have a lovely Tuesday, everyone.

Lurkers really are legion. (I am not kidding when I say have been reading fic for like 10 years. And the first commenting that I did? In the last couple of *months*. For real.)

I also hope the fandom does not explode because, well, I just got here too. And I don't like that kind of drama. (Or things interfering with the porn supply.) My total lack of attention span kind of prevents me from having an OTP, and therefore truly grokking ship wars. (Is "no reasonable offer refused" an OTP?)

Also? If you were turned into a Cylon, that would be totally sweet!

I'm glad you have been replaced by a Cylon are feeling better! Awesome.

Regarding fic-writing during finals...hey, it's nice to have priorities. *g* I, similarly, will probably spend lots of time reading fic during finals.

Oooh, linktracker? Point me, please? Also, lurkers unite!

Hope you have had (are having) an excellent Tuesday!

I'm so glad you're feeling better! I stopped on "Southern" though. I'm from southwest Georgia. Are you a peach stater too? As far as the lurking goes, I am extremely guilty about reading without commenting. I always think my comments are incredibly dorktastic. I know I should comment, I start to comment and then I don't. I'm going to try to turn over a 'commenting' leaf and do better.

Pushups?!? Seriously, pushups?!? You consider that to be better???? YOU'RE CRAZY! Must be all the beans.

The AU I was not going to write is a concussion grenade and a FOX news scrollbar away from completion. ... This? Had me rolling on the floor. That is an *awesome* sentence right there. I can't wait to read the actual fic.

SGA fandom does this periodically. I'm sure it'll still be here when the dust settles.

My first thought on number one: Oh noes! The robots really do have a plan to take over by replacing us one by one. This is bad.

Still reiterating my joy at AU. Ok, done now.

I remember delicious life giving sleep. Or maybe it was something that happened to a friend of mine.

And because I am moving the comment thread of doom: Unitarian solidarity! Yes, I'm still a unitarian, but considering my lack of sleep, I do not go to services often. In the last year. Except for solstice, I always make winter solstice, usually all three services. But one year there was this big embracing of native traditions. Let's just say that there was smudge and phnelt+anything besides air that I have to breathe= stoned. I thought the floor was a vortex that was going to eat me. Apparently someone complained (not me, I do not make fusses) and the next year there was just water purification.

I am pretty much weirded out and overjoyed with the amount of things we have in common. Huh.

Ah, banana, now the dowel rod makes slightly more sense. kinda.

And also because I was stalking your comments just a little, I think Zelenka/anyone is usually brilliance. Mostly because he is awesome. I don't really want to comment on shipwarness, mostly because I am of the philosophy of ignoring something and hoping it goes away. You don't have to tell me, I know that this is not the best system.
