Writer's Block: Transportation  

In the past they promised us jetpacks for the future. We’re still waiting. What is your ideal mode of transportation? Has it been invented yet?

I'm not sure about teleportation, (see: Heroes for possible problems), and it could be hard to stop, I mean the lines, personal spaces, how would goverment divide space into "portable" and "non-portable" areas? Come on.

I always liked The Jetson's lifestyle though, flying cars, moving tubes. That could be it. Dreamy answer would be teleportation, but the latter is more possible (in a very rich country, of course.)

I like subways very much too, in this lifetime.

IT'S A BOY!  
I'm SO happy and excited. My cousin Virginie just had her baby! YAY! The first baby from our generation. His name's Phileas, 3kg3, cute as hell. My grand-mother can barely contain her glee and is saying to whoever will listen that she's now a great-grand-mother. This is all super exciting... I'm not really sure who he is to me... a cousin, yes, but I don't know the exact name. Um. Maybe first cousin once removed? Anyway, it's awesome.

I have a brand new tiny cousin! Eeeeee! *twirls*

Hi,

I've been thinking a lot about the election and how important it is to all of us.

I've decided to support Barack Obama, and wanted to let you know why.

There are many rumors floating around out there, so here's some information about Barack's positions on things I know are important to you:



This is probably going to be the most important election in my lifetime, and it's something I strongly believe in. So let's talk about it. Ask me anything.

Thanks,

Writer's Block: The X-Files Birthday  

Today in 1993, The X-Files first premiered. What's your favorite episode? Have you ever experienced paranormal activity yourself?


View other answers



Ooh, so hard to choose from many. The one first popped in my mind is 'Arcadia'. How can it not be? For all of the shippers of XF? It was just brilliant. And with many unseen scenes, fans created a whole different world out of that episode. (So with Millennium, that kiss is still the event of 2000 for me) I love 'Small Potatoes', I love 'Detour', I love 'Fight The Future', I adore 'Triangle', and I just love the fact that I remember the episodes by names. Not one other show could make me do that.

My paranormal activites come from my brain, especially with timeline. I often feel deja-vus, both from the past and future. My senses are very heightened about feeling people of what are they doing or stuff like that, but I always think that as coincidence, I'm not into that type of 'talents'.

Tim! Booth! Sweets! Fics!  
Did I mention I have the best of friends? Probably, but it's still worth repeating: I have the best of friends. Who write me fics! <333

NCIS

They Call Me Boss written by the talented [info]oxoniensis for my birthday. Tim-centric, with team!love and abby!love. It's just lovely and all the voices are spot on. Go read it!

Bones

Comment drabble written by the lovely [info]lillyjk just because I asked. How awesome is she, right? And it's Booth/Sweets! I don't know if this pairing had ever been written, but now it has and it makes incredibly giddy.

Btw, the 'booth/sweets' or/and 'sweets/booth' interests need love. I'm all alone right now. This just isn't right.

Who's with me?  
I have watched the latest Bones episode and all I have seen is this:



I have been seeing it for a while now, I wasn't just vocal about it. I have this special talent to always root for the ships which are unpopular -- as in followed by very few people, not necessarily disliked. John/Rodney from SGA being the exception. However, I think I've outdone myself this time.

I love you too much to make you stay, baby fly away.  
I'm sick. Do you remember the time that I went out with a t-shirt in thunder? Well yeah. After moving into the winter house, I worked all day long with a sweaty back, and here we go, welcome sickness.

I'm also netless, and it's driving me crazy. I hope I'll make it get working late afternoon, I ordered mom to buy the stuff I need to make it work, she's on it. Not that I'm gonna sit here or such, but I need to know that it's working. Net is like drugs, gee. I'm writing this as a draft e-mail on my Outlook, I'll post this entry when I'm finished via dial-up. Also, tiredness and dizzyness make my English form very wrong sentences, so bear with me.

I'm having trouble with sleep, since my throat is sore. I'm fighting against to not have fever, cause when I have fever, I have it bad. I only have it for one day, but always I see 41-41C, and it tires the hell out of me. So yes, I'm on antibiotics, and since I haven't had any for the last 2 years, it's tiring me up. I'm forbidden to get sick, since my sister's fragile condition, so I'm more than careful ever since, but this time they won me over. Well, I'm not defeated until the war is over, so yes, I'm fighting. My sister is forbidded to have a step into my room, I'm also going to seperate my dinners and such.

As a sickness ritual, I set up my computer and my bed aligned, and put on my shows on line. Usually, when I'm all feverish, I go with Alias Season 2, that is the best medicine for me, cause the awesomeness keeps me awake and I feel that my brain is still alive, and not going numb.

Today though, since I'm not that bad, I chose Bones. How I love that show, seriously. When it first began, I wasn't that over Angel, and I saw David Boreanaz as Angel still, so I didn't start to watch this. I honestly hated that show, and didn't appreciate Boreanaz, also thought that Booth was just an alive Angel, who was doing forensic criminal things now. I thought he was acting like Angel, still.

But last year, (while the show was on it's 3rd season, now you see that I'm sometimes very stubborn) I watched some of the episodes on TV, and I kind of hooked up with it. Yet, I wasn't ready or thinking about to buy it/marathon it. So, one of my feiends lend me her Bones DVDs, and boy, I'm a fan of it since then.

I love the characters, each and every one of them. Their personalities, histories. And they are always in character that I'm so amazed. I honestly respect the writers of this show, I mean Brennan is still the same woman in the Pilot, but she is also so changed right now. She has grown up a lot, and only the ones who watched it all can see that. I'm proud of her.

I'm watching all of the episodes slowly, it's like sugar to me, I don't want to waste it, so on the slow watching, I'm about to close the first season nowadays, today I've watched 5 episodes in a row. But on the wider cycle, I have finished the third season, so yes, I know what happened. It's making me so sad, and angry at the same time, but I'll deal with it. I need to get my hands on the 4th season, just to make it ready. Or wait for the DVDs, yes.

So, whatever it's worth, I'm happy to be pwned by Boreanaz. I love Emily Deschanel, and I love all of the visuals, forensics, characteristics (Racing beetles, anyone?) of this show. It makes me remember that once upon a time, I wanted to be one of them. I was this close to choosing that path, they are this real to make me remember that. And it's like sharing real time with them, I don't know.

I also found my termo-cup! I'm happy, I thought I lost it! It's a cute red, long mug, but a thermos, you know those are selled at Starbucks? Like that, but much prettier. I won it at a competition held by Nescafe, it's dear to me :X

And now my tea is in it, the weather is not cold, but not hot either, I'm having a good music, watching a good show, my bed is cozy and purple, I'm back at my purple room, my beloved ones are texting me, and life is good, so good right now. I'm honestly content, full and happy at this moment.

Why's?  
Why do some people keep calling Ronon Ronan?

Why do some people write "slash" in the warnings?

Why do some people after I ask them the previous question tell me that they write "het" in the warnings too, and why do I have trouble believing that? ETA: And why do they completely miss the real issue?

Why do some people sign their comments with their usernames every damn time?

Why do some people bother to customize their fonts when posting in a community?

Why do some people ask questions which are answered in the post?

Why do some people ask questions when it's written in the post that I don't answer questions anymore?

Why do some people always comment with "nice brush work" when there were no brushes involved in the making of the icon?

Why do some of the non-McShep shippers assume that McShep shippers are sheep?

How can some people claim to be fans of a show and at the same time really hate a main character?

Why do some people friend me and unfriend me literally two minutes later? And then, do it all over again a couple of weeks later?

Why has an idiot sent me an email asking me why on earth I had vidded "The Tree" to a song in a foreign language? To which I answer: foreign to you.

Why most of the people leaving comments on YouTube videos are intolerant morons?

Why do crabs walk sideways?

So they owe me about 61 cents. I think I can live without it.  
So, my sites are down. Dreamhost says that it's a wide cut, and they are working on it, it should be crucial. Anyhow, when my sites are down, I read comments on status page, and they are ALWAYS fun. Below are not mine.

01. “It would be nice if DH would credit us for the interruptions.” On my plan I pay $10.95 a month. In a 30-day month there are 720 hours. So for each hour of downtime that’s approximately $0.015. The entire time I’ve been with DH, including the power outage fiasco a couple of years ago, my total downtime is about 40 hours. So they owe me about 61 cents. I think I can live without it.

02. I’ve been with DH five years. In the first four years there were maybe two significant outages. But today my sites have now been down for 12 hours. This last year it seems like there are constant problems. Halloween is a big holiday for me - well, it would have been if my sites had been up. Not a single reply to contact, no call back, and no update here. From what I can see, the blogs on mySQL are running - but nothing else is. I must sadly agree that it might be time for anyone with a serious business site to look elsewhere. Myself included.

I love how people take these things seriously. I mean, I've been with Dreamhost for like 2 years, and I've been to that big outage too. It's not a big deal, you are on a shared server, and you are the one to blame. Make a deal with a guaranteed one, with a special server dammit.

I have my own personal domains for over 5 years, and every host has problems. They are machines for fuck's sake. And of course, half of these people are paid to write those, also they are the same people most probably, but honestly, the reasons are so LOL. If people who are pwning them are actual customers, then I get happy. But if not, who cares, DH has it's right.

I pay low for big amounts of hostage, and I'm not complaining. So my forums are down for 1 hours, 2 hours? So what. Even if it takes for 12 hours. I should be an administrator who has everyone's contact info, and tell them to relax, that I'm on it, and that we'll be back soon. I signed that contract, I acknowledged the situations that may arise.

I don't know, this doesn't need that much of a law brain, it's just proper human way. Logic.

A historic love, ours was.  
Since it's festive week, I'm not around. I sat today though, after a week, I think. We are returning home on Sunday, and I can't wait for it. Even though I love our summer house, I missed my home.

I read all of my flist, from time to time. Ref, I'm sorry for your loss, Christina, thank you so much for making me see the updates on Jack's Mannequin, I'm so happy!

Also, this post is a reason to use this icon of mine. Ali Larter and David Anders? Joy. Can't wait for the Adrian Pasdar scenes though. Just.Can't.Wait.

So yes, I'm not dead, but apparently bored.

Nobody plays with Chuck Bass.  
On True Blood : Eric was awesome. There needs to be more of him. That is all.

On Gossip Girl : I was Team Serena for the first time, Blair deserved it, she is acting like a spoiled little rich girl (which she is, already). Also, I was happy for Chuck at first, but then I got so sad. I hope Dan can get back to him. He can help him a little. Also, where the hell is Nate? Interesting.

No no, I only smile in private.  
I've come to learn the existence of "Lost in Austen", and I'm in love with it. As a hardcore fan of Pride and Prejudice, I really got happy to see that edition.

I'm in love with Mr. Rochester and Mr. Darcy since I was 13, and I'm so happy that for all those years, I was in love with them through books. In these years, I've seen so many girls loving Darcy through movies, series and such, and it is such a waste in my opinion. Yes, BBC series was good, Colin Firth is an exceptional Darcy, and he will always be the legendary one, all of the Darcy versions we'll see will be compared to him.

I loved Matthew Macfadyen's Darcy too, maybe more so. He is more handsome than Firth, also he is young. He had his advantages. Firth had an extended time slot, Macfadyen had only 2 hours. So I know that Macfadyen is may be nothing compared to Firth, but I really liked this portrayal too.

And now, this Darcy, portrayed by Elliot Cowan. At first, I thought he was a stunt of Firth or something, he was looking so like him! But then, minute by minute, he gained his own spot, and now I like him too. Onto the series ;

Lost in Austen : Not one heartbeat, do I forget. )

So yes, I'm waiting for the DVD to come out. I shall put this near my other Pride&Prejudice DVDs. It'll look pretty. :)

I watched Heroes, finally. And I'm totally satisfied, I missed this Heroes, and now it's back. I love this twisted logic of it, and yet being meaningful.

Heroes 3x01 and 3x02. Thoughts, theories, many ramblings. )
