Sep. 16th, 2010 07:03 pm+ I seem to be writing again. Last night I wrote about 1000 words of Cara having feelings and 500 words of dialogue for my
help_haiti story (which was due in... March. I know, I fail at life), while watching bits and pieces of Legend of the Seeker for purely research purposes. Which led to the discovery that Cara's niece is also called Ella. Do you see what this means,
hibernate? DO YOU? It's like the multiverse is sending Signs.
+ Ever since discovering the wonders of online streaming, I have watched random episodes of various tv shows. The Hellcats premiere, The Vampire Diaries 1.01 (it's hilarious watching Ian Somerhalder playing a ~mysterious, ever so evil vampire), and Warehouse 13 Season 2 (the episodes with H.G. Wells in them, that is). Once again I bow before your superior judgment, flist. You were right. H.G. is awesome and Relevant To My Interests. She appeals to my inner twelve year old who squeed over The Invisible Man and The First Men In the Moon and wanted to be an explorer/adventuress across time and space. The fact that she has an inappropriate amount of chemistry with the lead helps.
+ And now I feel compelled to seek out books by Wells I have not read (there are so many).
+ My copy of Mockingjay has still not arrived. Stupid imported editions. Humph.
+ For the three people who will know what I'm talking about, I watched Dabang the other day, and I'm a little ashamed to admit how much I enjoyed it. I could have done without the melodrama (it's very 90s that way) and the travesty that was Dimple Kapadia as a frumpy old-ish lady, but I'm a sucker for kitsch and parody, and the movie had it in spades. I'm also left wondering if Malaika Arora is a little bit magic, because somehow she looks exactly as she did in 1998. No, hotter, if that's possible.
