It's almost lunch...

I wanna see the OC. I could get into it, I'm sure. Hell, I watched Young Americans and enjoyed it. *g*

Quick questions for USians watching this: what does the "OC" stand for? (I keep thinking we're just missing one O, for Out Of Character... *g*)

Last night was fun. Lot's of good ideas about UST, even if it was all het focused. Spuffy was used as an example of a relationship that satisfied the sexual tension but retained the emotional tension, and I cracked at the clips we saw (The kiss, from the musical; the rape scene; matyr Spike being burned - really, that does sum up the relationship for me. *g*) There were other BtVS clips shown (Xanya "I'll Never Tell", and S4 Spike asking Buffy to marry him) and examples from Seachange, Secret Life of Us, and X-Files. There were some interesting ideas, but I'll ramble on about them later.

Hey, has anyone heard of the website "Jumping the Shark"? Sounded pretty bitchy/snarky, and was mentioned a lot during the presentation. (Along with someone's shocking comment re: BtVS going downhill after Willow became gay and started seeing "her ugly girlfriend" (Tara!) *grrrrr* That person must be blind.)

Also, I met another Sorkin slasher (anyone who mentions homoeroticism and "For me, WW was never about Josh and Donna, it was always about Josh and Sam", is someone that I have to introduce myself to!) Invited her along on Saturday, but I need to remember to email her.

*sigh* The boss is out today, and I have a list of things I should be doing, and no motivation to do them. It's very bad. I'm just tired, and my ear's a little sore, and my throat's a little scratchy. It's not that I'm really sick, I'm just feeling rundown. I need a good night's sleep (ie. bed before midnight).

Rec: SN femslash

I don't often rec SN fic, or femslash, but this pleased me greatly. Smoky Blue by meadowlion is a Dana/Natalie piece that really hit the right spot for me. This is what I love about the best slash, the physical tension, the hot smut, the underlying romance. Even if you're like me and don't usually read femslash, read this. This is how it should be done.

Night all!

I can't believe it. My throat is sore. I'm having slashers over on Saturday, and my throat is sore. I think it's time to bring out the Strepsils.

I'm going to bed. This isn't as early as I planned to go to sleep, but it's still a lot better than I've managed for the rest of the week. *g*
