8.59 a.m. All the precious empty moments stretching ahead of me. I'd do a poll to see what you all think I should do with these and the other PEMs of the weeks to come but as I'm ignoring all of the resolutions I set myself, I probably wouldn't listen so I won't waste your time ;-)
Should be...beta reading, incorporating beta changes to BCD (going to post it in all its revised, beta'd splendour, complete and finished next week sometime and yes, that still makes me feel like crying), starting Gilesficathon (got a plot way too early; 'il faut souffrir' and all that), doing masses of little bits and bobs like answering mail, posting fics around the place...all of those are fun things to do.
Want to...write PWP with an entirely gratuitous, gleefully out of character Giles spanking Xander in the library because I mentioned I'd like to read it yesterday and realised no one would write it for me so if I want to read it I'd have to do it myself.
Masturbation can be way more fun than sex with someone else on occasion but I'm damned if writing your own fantasy fics always is. It's that element of the unknown that's missing.
I'm also realising how dull I am. Did that kinks in fic meme in my head (too shy to post it, or maybe it's redundant) and got to about five before I realised that was it. I can't even find ten things that make me breathe in shallow gasps to stop myself moaning too loudly as I read a fic? How depressingly narrow and focused of me. Add to to do list: discover new kinks.
Last night I finally watched an entire episode of US QaF. I've seen all the UK ones but never the US one. Hmm. Same in many ways...but different. Nothing earth shatteringly bad to say about it; Brian is prettier than Stuart but not half as much fun, Nathan/Justin, meh, Justin's less of a smartarse maybe, Michael isn't half as vulnerable/strong/appealing as Vince and the hearts and flowers from the older woman (can't remember her name) had me going, 'meh' again.
Trouble is, I grew up near Manchester not Pittsburgh. I'm inclined to think the UK show is more realistic because of that, when it isn't really; but it feels as if it's got an edge to it somehow. The US version was prettier, tidied up...but it was interesting. I'd watch it again, if only for the eye candy. It's so nice being able to say that without even bothering to feel guilty about the shallowness of the sentiment because I doubt anyone reading would blame me ;-)
And speaking of that; hello to anyone new and thanks for friending a procrastinating, repressed, idle, contrary me ::hugs::
And now it's 9.20. Oh, bugger.
I'll end with a GIP; see my new, scrummy Giles icon, swiped from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
loraineee79. That's just how he'll look in my PWP...
