Ah, nice to see that LJ's letting me post again. My brother arrived yesterday, so I've had fun seeing TTT again, with him. We'll probably watch FotR tomorrow, as I've spent most of today either playing Tetris World or watching the extras on the FotR DVD. It's only watching the cast mini-interviews that I suddenly realised who viggo was reminding me of -- Alan Alda. For some reason, there's something about his eyes that makes me think of Hawkeye. (But I still find the rest of the fellowship more attractive than him or Boromir. I think it's something about the filthy, scruffy look that just doesn't do it for me.) The thing that made me laugh most in the cast comments? Sean Astin saying, and I quote, "Sam loves Frodo". Yes, I am easily amused.

Some people regularly get together with fellow slashers, I just have fun making snarky comments with my brother. I still can't look at the CPR scene from the SV premier without hearing him say, "Dude, you're in. Go for the tongue!". However, he's five years my junior, and now a good 3-4 inches taller than me. It's kinda off-putting because I still have a mental image of him being shorter.


I'm still working on "The Gods hate Kansas". I cannot get Clark and Lex to do anything more than kiss, once. It's just bothering me that I can almost hear the dialogue, but I have real difficulty in fics trying to desribe the action and surrounding. I love reading fics that give that almost physical sensation of being there, where you can picture the characters clearly in your mind. Just not something that comes easily to me. I'm going to leave it for a couple days on the computer and come back to it to see if I can fix it anymore, but I have a sneaking suspicion that this is as good as it gets.

Meanwhile, it's hot again and I've helped myself to a couple of Vodka Cruisers. I have over 25 friends entries to catch up on and just under an hour before Hornblower starts. Life is good.
