State of the babble.

I am not a morning person. No, like, for real, SO not a morning person. I had a thought that was going there, but mostly at this point I am all just blathering. Points of interest:

a) I posted my [livejournal.com profile] picfor1000 story, which is Chuck Happiness Was Never Really Our Success, which I apologise madly for if you tried to read it yesterday. There was a bit of a coding snafu, which cut out, like seven lines, which, when dealing with 1000 words, kind of relevant.

b) All Hail Generation Kill people! UK goers, GK started airing on FX like yesterday, so you know, FUCKING WATCH IT. Ahem. And the rest of us are required (yes, by me) to read [livejournal.com profile] bluflamingo's Yuletide Resolution story Seagulls and Sand, which takes place when Nate goes to visit Brad in the UK. Ah, GK fen, we do not turn out a lot of work (I have complaints about this), but what we do churn out I enjoy immensely. No lie. Maybe I need to check out the GK-based resolutions myself. Hmmm.

c) Speaking of small but mighty fandoms, Leverage folk, OMG THE ALEC/ELIOT Y'ALL ARE WRITING IS THE BOMB! Naturally, I (biasedly) recommend everything [livejournal.com profile] sparky77 has written (Leverage/O11 people), as well as [livejournal.com profile] with_a_key's work (esp this story), and this story by [livejournal.com profile] merle_p and this story by [livejournal.com profile] darkeyedwolf.

d) DEAR PRESIDENT OBAMA,

U IZ THE MOST AWESOMEST EVER.

<3,
X

e) Rahm Emanuel continues to be greater than you. (or me). Turns out the NYT has a White House OTP too.

f) I know y'all thought I was bullshitting you about Robert Downey Jr being cracked out in The Kingdom of the Blaggers, but I wasn't. Hell, by this example, I totally didn't apply ENOUGH crack. Gacked from [livejournal.com profile] musesfool

g) We now return you to your regularly scheduled Merlin/Burn Notice*/Psych/Gossip Girl/Leverage/BSG** babbling already in progress.

g2*) Burn Notice people, it is not my imagination that Michael got hotter, is it? Yeah, didn't think so. Also, do we all agree that in the Sam & Michael relationship, Sam is the big brother, which is why he gets to call Michael "Mikey" and nobody else does. Do we have fic about that, because we sure as hell need some.

g3) BSG, people, I don't even have words about the last two weeks. Actually, yes I do : OMGWTFBBQSTOPLYING!

You should TOTALLY write that. And yes indeed, Michael has managed to get hotter. I am not sure how, but your eyes do not deceive you.

I was rewatching the premiere, and that bit where they were fighting, I was like, OMG! Sam's the older brother! And it makes so much sense, when you look at it, b/c Sam is always looking out for him, and he has a pet name for him. Has Sam *ever* called in Michael? It's always Mike or Mikey. Sam is totally the irresponsible, girl-crazy older brother that Michael never had. I think one of the best parts of their relationship is that Michael knows Sam can take care of himself, it's not a constant worry like with Nate and Madeline. I totally just pulled that out of ... thin air. Yes, thin air.

Also? SUPER HOT this week.
