So because I feel incapable of watching TO/TVD without doing a reaction post, it kept getting put off, but I’m finally getting to it.

Short rl update )

Okay, on with the shows.

The Originals 1x09 )

TVD 5x09 )

So, in case anyone was wondering, my standard reaction posts are going to be late if at all this week. My grandma had a stroke and is still in ICU although she's not getting any worse at least. It's been a stressful few days and I only today bothered figuring out my grandparents' internet connection to get online. So I'm still a bit from getting to TV shows, not a huge priority obviously.

Hope all of you are well.

-Since I don't have much in the way of TV shows to talk about right now (and even less after GoT ends for the season) what have I been watching? Baseball of course. My Rockies are doing way better this year than last tear so it's fun to watch them again (they're always my team, but last year it sort of stopped being appointment viewing to watch the games). But so far this season it's still appointment TV most evenings.

-Also, apparently my dad has been reading ASOIAF, and asked for my GoT DVDs the other day. We've got tickets to a ballgame next week so I may spend part of the late drive home getting his thoughts so far (I'm sure it hasn't been as surprising to him as it should have been since my mom and I have been discussing stuff around him for a while now so he probably got to certain things and remembered that he'd heard about it a couple years ago).

-My [livejournal.com profile] scifibigbang fic is...progressing. I've rewritten this (probably) closing section almost as much as I rewrote the opening. I think I'm going to leave the smutty bits for a follow-up to be written later unless the talky parts really start coming easier and I feel I have the time/inclination/story room to add it to the goal of this fic. Unless that happens it's not going to be any too long, but should make the 25k requirement.

-Also, GODS DAMN DO I HATE THIS POST EDITOR, THIS IS WHY I WRITE MY ACTUAL THOUGHTS IN A SEPARATE PROGRAM, WHICH MEANS I SOMETIMES FORGET HOW AWFUL IT IS WHEN I DECIDE TO JUST WRITE QUICK POSTS IN IN POST EDITOR WINDOW. And yes, that whole thought needed capslock, I REALLY HATE THIS, WHY DID LJ DO THIS TO ME?!?!?!?!?

-Okay so I've spent the last few days traveling and going to a wedding. It was nice to see family but it was a lot of time in the car with my parents.

-Plus I got sick on the last day of all that. Completely awful sick. Fortunately I seem to be on the mend. Pretty much just knocked myself out to finish the trip home but a good night's sleep in my own bed was a plus.

-All in all it was at best a meh trip.

-However is 'The Originals' is actually a thing...I will have to figure out how I feel about it. Because The Originals are like 90% of the reason I'm still watching TVD (I love you Elena, but the show clearly doesn't) so I should love to see them get they're own spin off but...I 'm not that interested in watching the weekly exploits of Klaus where he's probably going to be the supposed sympathetic main character (plus it would take Klaus away from his OTL Stefan) and I still don't see ow they're going to get Gillies into a full time role. So, I guess for now those are my feelings, I'm not as excited as I want to be.

-I always think I'm going to get more writing/editing done on trips than I actually do. I ended up with basically nothing accomplished, sadness.

-Now I have TV shows to watch while I recuperate.

Okay, so there’s a few updates on some of my ongoing projects (if people are all that interested) here, but then there’s real life stuff again.

Various stuff here )

Umm...

Not that I think many of you would notice, but I might be less available than usual for a few days. I'll still probably be around some, but less.

Cut for real life drama )

1) I had really good plans of writing this weekend, so far I've come closer to vidding (in that I'm prepping some stuff for future vidding). I can't even blame the muses for this one because they're around, I just can't seem to make myself do anything with them.

2) A quote from my sister "So I watched the first half of Doctor Who season 6; it's really not good." I haven't gotten to season 6 yet myself (I will one day...probably) but that's a further reason not to. Sis isn't even that big a DW fan to begin with and even she's disappointed by s6.

3) I thought I'd check in regarding my Buffy rewatch before I hit the Angelus arc.

Spoilers from a show that ended almost ten years ago )

Tomorrow morning I am off on a family trip to Phoenix to see the tail end of baseball spring training. By this point we know we'll only see some of the big players, but it will still be fun.

And then next weekend the actual season starts. Come on Rockies, give us a great year.

So yeah, Merry Christmas everyone (I'm a little early for me to be saying it but I may not have time tomorrow). Whether that means the religious bit of it or just a good time to spend with family and friends, the sentiment is the same (since I fall in the later category myself).

Cut for moping )

Okay, so back from the family, as expected once I managed to get myself into a more Christmasy mode I was more into it. Had a decent time, ate too much, got some gifts and laughs.

Now have 'The Writer's Tale' S4 of Doctor Who on DVD (don't have S3 actually, still can't quite justify it, but one day I'm sure I'll find a decent deal and I'll complete the set), as well as my own copies of the 'Song of Ice and Fire' books so next time I read them I won't have to use the library. Also, more people on my f-list should read them so I have some of you guys to talk about it with. Plus a bit of money to spend for the first time in a while so also plus.

Also, got *lots* of half formed vid ideas from hours of iPod listening in the car.

When I got home I had a letter informing me of a preliminary test on the 2nd for the job I recently applied for, so looks like I probably won't go out of town for New Years' (am going to a party on the 3rd though and that'll be good enough).

I've watched 'The Next Doctor' but I'm still processing it. Have some thoughts that I'll try to collect a bit later.

Haven't really even begun to catch up on my f-list, I'll try but if anyone wants to point out something specific I might have missed that's good too.
