Do tell?!

Back from holiday = Bad

Holiday was awesome = Good

All your birthday wishes = Even more AWESOME. Thank you.

Yuletide story has been FINISHED* and is off to beta #2 = Wicked awesome. I am so pleased I may write another. Or maybe I will write [livejournal.com profile] sparky77 something to thank her for my most crazy wicked awesome (yes, I’m on a awesome kick) birthday story evar Sir Brad the Dragon Slayer! That’s right! Brad! Slaying DRAGONS! [does Snoopy dance] Read eeet! Then you can thank me. And her. Mostly her. ETA: [livejournal.com profile] sparky77 posted my second birthday story NATE THE PIMP NO. That's not a typo. Inorite?!

*Special thanks to [livejournal.com profile] thisisbone because her saying she was done basically motivated me to get off my ass and sort it out.


Also, I have a whole lot of emails entitled ‘Anderson/Michael Phelps’ I cannot begin to tell you how fast I thought somebody had written that or that people wanted me to write it and then I found out that Anderson was totally using his media powers on 60 Minutes to perv on Michael Phelps and I laughed for a very very long time. Oh, Anderson, never change. Even George approves of this one.

It appears my entire flist has exploded in a stream of Merlin confetti. I know it’s bad because I was reading some this morning and LIKING IT and I don’t even know what it’s about. I mean I have an idea but my reference points are The Once and Future King and Sword in the Stone. Only gayer than S1 Smallville apparently. I cave. Where can I start watching?

Today I plan to write something. Yeah, I dunno what. That’s all I got.

Apparently you can find everything on YouTube. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_DU57aYjQhs) :) (Merlin is kind of hilariously awful and cheesy and the special effects are terrible but it's hopelessly addictive and wonderful all at the same time.)

It would make many more like me utterly dizzy with joy if Merlin does take your fancy. It's hilarious and brilliant and the two young lads are so utterly endearing and cute.

I am totally in love with your icon. For obvious reasons.

I thought Merlin was this underground thing, but noooo. Yes, like S1 of SV in the silly and gay and the bad-but-tremendously-entertaining sort of way.

And I can't wait to get home and read about Brad the Dragonslayer. Dude, best birthday story ever, indeed!

I totally missed your birthday! Fuck! Well, here, have a cupcake; I hope it's not stale.

And yay for motivation, even though I'm confident you'd have worked up the enthusiasm even without me twirling around in circles going, "I'm DONE! I'm DONE!"

Anderson was totally perving on MP -- you can't tell me AC didn't plan that whole pool bit just so he could get in the locker room with him. And Michael's like, "Whatever, dude. I'm used to adoration. What else you got?"

I'm very much looking forward to Merlin, though I will be, as always, late to the party.

Happy belated birthday! Welcome back! We missed you! And we love you forever because [livejournal.com profile] sparky77 is giving us such unbelievable crack in yourname!

And yes, that is the royal 'we.' Mwahaha.

Le sigh. I'm gonna have to give in and watch this Merlin show, huh? And I was being strong...

Where can I start watching?

*giggles uncontrollably* I swear, when I saw that first episode a few days after it aired, I wanted to bend the universe so all my old fandoms' writers would come and watch and maybe write me epic crack in line with the epic crack the show already is. Now every time I read something like your post? (And by the gods, people are falling over like dominoes) I LAUGH EVILLY FOR MY UNIVERSE BEDNING POWERS :D :D :D

I am hugely amused at the whole Merlin thing. Everyone - and I mean EVERYONE - seems to be hooked now! Hilarious! Only the BBC could produce such utterly slashy Saturday evening children's tv crack!

Glad to hear your holiday was fab. :)
