( Some blathering about QAF as of s1 e6 )Classes start tomorrow / I start looking for Gainful Employment / perhaps I will exercise or something. I have had an all-fanfiction all-the-time winter break, but it might be nice to reinterface with RL, partially because McKay and Sheppard have started talking in my head but so far all they want me to do is write Mary Sues where I am a dashing anthropologist who saves them from their awful, awful attempts at first-contact diplomacy. It's not that I don't have muses, it's that my muses are fourteen-year-old girls. Sigh.

There was a lot more fan in my holiday than I anticipated, mainly because between Bittorrent, Youtube, and other people's wireless networks, it is difficult to find a place where I can't drown my boredom with delicious delicious television. I was going to resolve to watch less tv this year, but I have to at least finish Due South s4. Also, I confess to the internet, I started watching Queer as Folk (US). Why? Frankly, because the internet has infected my brain to such a degree that all tv shows look slashy, and I decided it would help to watch a show where the dudes actually do get it on, a lot. I'm only four episodes in, and so far I've been too busy really really hating Brian to form any other conclusions. Everyone else hates Brian, right?
I am feeling the disadvantages of watching shows years after they aired right now.
I caught up on SGA season 3 while I was at home, which was good in a way. I have been horribly gun-shy of SGA since I read Freedom is Just Another Word by![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
synecdochic. It makes me feel like a twelve-year-old to admit it, but now every time I read (or even watch) SGA I get a little weebly but-their-love-was-so-beautiful about the whole thing. Silly but apparently unstoppable.
The new SGA episodes I very much don't hate. I like it when they stay in the city and snark at each other, and I really really hate episodes where they go offplanet to visit Olde-Europe-as-found-in-Busch-Gardens villages full of bustiered women. My brother calls this syndrome of mine "The Office in Space". My sister says it's a throwback to growing up with Babylon 5, where there were exactly two sets and no action sequences to speak of (besides when their one stuntman jump-spinning-kicked someone). Just forty-five minutes of well-written, well-delivered dialogue. That's what I want from a show, man.
That and attractive dude makeouts. So I will go see if QAF is done downloading yet. Why does iTunes never have these things? I would buy them, I swear, just for the convenience.
