Some things!
+ Okay, so episode two of Sherlock was a bit of a let-down. Not bad, just not nearly as delightful as the first one and also with some ooky-feeling race!fail. You could totally tell that Moffat didn't write this episode. Does anyone know if he wrote the next one? And is it only three episodes? I want MOAR!
+ Job search: applied for an administrative assistant position in one of the departments at my alma mater (I like calling it that. It makes me feel accomplished). If I got it, I would get to eat lunch with my sister and cousins (the ones who will deign to be seen with me) and see my former professors a lot more. It isn't my ideal job, obviously, but it would be five minutes from my house and pay more than I'm currently making. Which are good things.
I also updated my resume (which looks much more impressive now that I've had a year more of experience. I also moved my educational stuff below my work experience now, which makes it look like I've accomplished things outside of school! Yay me!). Other than that, I have done nothing, and I feel guilty but I just can't. This job search is going to kill me unless something falls into my lap.
+ Tomorrow: pancakes at the crack of dawn at the best pancake place in town! With my friends! Yay!
+ Also, I am seriously sitting here considering rewatching all of The Vampire Diaries.And also thinking that I ship Damon/Elena a whole lot more than I thought I did. Because I have been dreaming about it. Is that a weird thing to admit? I think my dreams, which have always been vivid and not-with-the-sense-making, have become more interesting and easier to remember since I went on this medication, and I sort of love it. Anyways, for some reason, TVD keeps popping up in various ways in my dreams.
Also, I rewatched the ComicCon teaser for the new season (will they EVER release a good-quality version?), and I have some thoughts.
+ I seriously ship Stefan/Katherine now. Seriously. Because Y'ALL THEY ARE ANGEL/DARLA 2.0! And as there is currently no one on the show who could take Cordy's place, I am going to ship my secondary Angel-related OTP on this show. ANGEL/DARLA! Stefan's all broody and trying to be good but recently struggling and Katherine blows into town and is like, "I came back for you!" Seriously, it would not have surprised me one little bit if she had said, "God doesn't want you but I still do." I really, really hope they go there and that these two are EPIC. Katherine is going to have some fun this season!
+ I really don't want John to be really dead. Because that would be a waste. Not only a waste by not having David Anders on my television screen each week, but also because we haven't even begun to explore his relationship with Elena, which has the potential to be all kinds of fascinating. And also because he should now be a vampire. Watching him become the thing he's always hated most would be incredible. Like more than I can describe. That should happen, y'all.
+ I reiterate my feelings that they should take the Damon/Elena thing slowly. Lots more BFF-ness! With UST! But don't really go there so soon, show! You'll ruin it! THIS MUST BE HANDLED GENTLY. I strangely trust the writers on this.
+ I could write a huuuuuge long post about how Damon and Stefan resemble Spike and Angel and how Katherine is sort of a combination of Darla and Dru and Elena is Buffy-ish (though obviously not as awesome as my girl). But I feel like it's all so obvious, so I won't. Still, the parallels are fun.
+ I find myself becoming a huge Alaric fangirl. When did that happen? Like, I liked him before, but now I'm all, "OMG HE AND DAMON ARE MY BOYS." And I just want more of them bonding and kicking ass so bad. I'm gonna be crushed if that doesn't happen in S2. I need an icon with the two of them. Also, my new never-gonna-happen dream for the show is Alaric describing himself as a rogue demon hunter and someone (Jeremy?) saying, "What's a rogue demon?" PLEASE.
+ Eventually, I'm going to want a good Bonnie ship, but there is no one on the show who is awesome enough for her. They should write a new character and make him cool. But not right at the moment because I'm content for her to be kicking ass and taking names. Also, in the little bit of Damon/Elena fic I've read, I see a lot of Bonnie hate, which startled me. I thought it was in character--and, frankly, probably pretty smart--of her to not disable the device. Sure, she shouldn't have lied about it to Elena, but she thought she was doing the right thing, and I can't blame her for that. I still love her. CARRY ON, BONNIE BENNETT.
+ Did I mention in my other post just how happy it made me that Caroline got Miss Mystic Falls? I want Caroline to be happy always and get everything she wants. And for her and Matt to keep being adorable and one day make adorable blonde babies.
+ Are there any long, good, completed Damon/Elena fics? Preferably with lots of Damon-and-Alaric-being-awesome-together as a side show? I've found some good shorter stuff but nothing long and complete. *sigh*
Yeah. I'm gonna go rewatch now. Toodles!
