fightingthecage: (SPN - Closeup Dean)


OK, last night was fucked up. You know when all you want is an early night and then you get it and then can't sleep? This was one of those - and then add the scaryass Supernatural nightmare (Sam was the actual Antichrist, complete with cartoon red eyes and painted-on black pupils who wreaked havoc like whoa and then Dean thwarted him (to my immense relief) by setting fire to the top set of a pair of dentures that we had unearthed and then I was really pissed off because everyone was all over Sam being back to normal and no one cared that Dean had saved the day) that had me awake two hours after dozing off...and then the baby woke up for food and wouldn't go back to sleep for ages and the dreams shifted into something completely random that I can't remember now. I do know waking up feeling like I hadn't been to sleep at all and I hate that.

Anyway! (Oh also, I had been sleeping with Dean and then some other chick wanted to muscle in which also pissed me off). I am watching Smallville because it's on and Clark just totally injured some football player by tackling him. Yeah, like he couldn't imagine that that might happen? Whatever, this is only the second ep I've seen and it seems OK. Young!Jensen is hot!

I finished watching S2 of Heroes a couple of days ago. I liked it! Possibly even better than S1 actually. The thing that gets me about Heroes is that a) the writing is often dead clunky - when Peter says things like 'what's going to become of me?' I just have to roll my eyes because who the fuck talks like that? - and b) it's sometimes hard to keep up with who has met who and who knows about others' powers...this might just be because it's ages since I've seen S1 and can't remember though. But overall, I like it. I want to love it but can't quite get there. Some things:

a) Peter with short hair is hot. Thank God he cut that floppyass mess.
b) I had hoped Mohinder might ditch the mullet altogether but it was creeping back there towards the end. He annoys me.
c) I hated Elle at first. I can't stand childish touchy-feely little bints, even though she had justification for her lack of social skills. In the end though, I just felt really sorry for her.
d) Noah FTW! He's awesome. I still like Clare a lot too. And West is cute, if a little annoying at first.
e) Much love goes out to Hiro, of course, and Nathan. And Adam/Tensei - so cool! And yay to Sylar being back to his normal self! Should set up for an interesting S3.

In other fandom news, I have managed to recover the SPN fic I was writing, so hurrah.

And in the news, thank goodness that the Diana inquest is over and came back with a sensible verdict. Now it might actually get off the news, something for which I will be eternally grateful for.

Life = same old. Some thing will just be a continuous stress until I get them sorted out. Apart from that, I am on holiday from college and getting to spend loads of time in the gym - which is starting to be a bit of a problem actually, as I go nuts if I can't go. Still, no biggie.

...what is up with Clark's hair, honestly? Wow.

I've been watching S2 of Heroes now that I've run out of SPN. After three episodes, here are my general thoughts.

i) It's probably better than S1 already

ii) The 'Irish' accents? WORST THINGS EVER!! Would it be so hard to hire actual Irish actors so that it's not painful to listen to them every time they open their mouths? Also, I've never heard a single Irish person say, 'boyo' or 'to be sure' in my life. These guys say it constantly through the episodes and it is totally irritating. Cliched, much?

iii) Hiro and Ando are the gayest couple ever to exist on TV. Even without being outed. Yes, yes they are.

iv) If they were going to have competition in the gay couple stakes, it would obviously come from Matt and Mohinder who a) already live together, b) already talk to each other like they've been married for ten years and c) are already raising a child together. Those guys move fast.

But they're still not as gay as Hiro and Ando.

And those are the entirety of my thoughts. Riveting, I know.

It amuses me these days that all the spam I get in my inbox is to do with penis extensions. Is someone trying to tell me something? It used to be that all spam was just empty emails or gibberish. This is far more fun.

It also amused me, while watching Austin Powers 3 the other day, that the dude who plays Hiro in Heroes (who the hell thought up that little pun anyway? It's both clever and trite, which is a feat in itself) is in it briefly. I find it funny because a) any time a massive fake lizard is stuck on top of a mini, creating the impresison of running amok in Tokyo while pausing the movie while copyright is explained...well, how could that not be funny? and b) because it makes me laugh when Hiro speaks English. Yes, I'm perfectly aware that the actor who plays him has perfect English (is he actually American? I assume so) but Hiro is so sweet and speaks pidgin English so cutely, its weird when he randomly appears not to be Japanese.

On that note, musings on Heroes. Cut for length or the disinterested )

Note to self: do not wake up in the morning after three hours sleep and not get up. Otherwise a repeat of today will happen, where you lie awake uncomfortably for another two hours, then sleep until 16:30, thereby ensuring that you'll be up all night again tonight. Bloody fool. Still, it means that after I finish off the last two episodes of Queer as Folk that I have to watch, I can then start on S6 of 24! Finally!

But first, shower, then supermarket, then food. Then random time-wasting. Awesome. :)
