And it tastes like lemonade

[rachg82]

My head hurts, my period is starting, and FMM is getting cranky. Not in the faux-smacktalky way that I expected (i.e. the way that I like, where people are still having fun & laughing/messing *with* one another, not yelling *at* one another), but in an actually semi-personal, wanky/mean/angry, haterade-sippin', fun-killing sorta way. Where people are using capslock because they're all ~pissed off~ at other fans? (it makes me think of the South Park rabble-rabble crowds) Where they start their comments with, "UH." (you know what I'm talking about! With the condescending shit)

Time to booooouuuunce.

I think I got spoiled last year, with the Donna/Dana lovefest. Y'all were like my brothas from another motha'. I already knew it was nicer than normal (by what people said), but now I can really appreciate it. I was given false hopes.

Hey, at least we'll always have Paris.

So, yes. I'm outta there/done with the whole thing. The spirit of it has been flat-out ruined for me. It only took a few things (amidst many great posts/comments, to be fair), but it was enough. I would like to trade in this song for this one. See the difference?

I'm gonna go back to building a virtual bunker to hide in over at bones_ga, I think. It's nice over there. I need easy fun right now & kind words. Anything too harsh is straying into dangerous territory for me at the moment (I've got too much on my mind as it is--it doesn't take much). Oh, well. Live & learn.

On a positive note, look what I came across today. Number one, hilarious. Number two, it lets me once again (I need to just create a specific tag for this thing, though I guess the "my fandoms have random shit in common" one works too) add to my 51 Things Bones, X-Files, Buffy, Dollhouse, BSG, & Angel Have in Common Picspam, like so:

Haha, I couldn't resist. Once I saw it, I was just like, "OMG, COOKIE TIME."

Cheered me up a bit, anyway (which I needed). Hopefully you guys found it entertaining as well.

Since I'm awake & spamming everyone, I'll end this with a Vid of the Day before I go. This one is by racho14luvser and is a tribute to Parenthood--a lovely little show that makes me smile & cry & flail on a weekly basis. It's like a big bowl of mmm-mmm-good every Tuesday night.

I just recently got into Parenthood and I am absolutely loving it. After the horrible Nate thing happened on Southland, I heard Kevin Alejandro had done a tour over there and had to see it. I actually signed up for Hulu Plus to be able to. I adored him on it most of all, and I'm sad that didn't go anywhere, but I unexpectedly fell in love with the whole show. I haven't seen Season 1 though. I'll have to figure that out.

And also I'm a week behind on Southland which is why I haven't been reading/commenting on your posts. I try to go back and catch up on them after. But stupid TNT doesn't put up last weeks until the day of the new one and that's not enough time to ever get caught up!

I didn't even make the connection that was him on Parenthood! Ha. WTF, self. BOTH SHOWS AIRED ON THE SAME NIGHTS, TOO. Maybe if he'd been wearing a cop uniform (or suit, since y'know, he was a detective--you know what I mean!), I would've noticed. It was like a Superman/Clark Kent situation.

I'm so glad I have another Parenthood fan on my flist now. Yay! Thinking back to that plotline, I wish it had gone somewhere too. I need more Alejandro on my screen, especially now that I'm paying attention to the fact that it's him. Hee. (so THAT'S why I liked him!) I also like the teacher, but I think he was more so around in the first season, so I'll zip it on that front.

Dude, waiting until the day of a new ep to post the last one is not cool, TNT. Everywhere else on the internet does it immediately the day after it airs. Stop trying to be ~different~.

You def need to come back & talk to me about it when you catch up though. The last ep of Southland was badasssssssss. Lydia, you are my HOMEGIRL.
