Life
...take places mainly at the office. Then it's home to the tv, bed, shower, office. Weekends since I moved were spent traveling (a lot), going home (I miss my horse and my dog SO much) or here, buying things for the appartment, and cleaning, shopping, ironing and all the other things I don't have time for during the week. I spent DAYS on the phone with the german t-kom because of my internet connection. Now they came and gave my DSL 2000 instead of 16000, because 16000 doesn't work. At least I'm online, though I really really want my 16000. 2000 is a joke. But, not complaining. And it only took three months!
*tired laugh*
Job
It's good. Seriously, it's great. I regularly work more than 50 hours a week, which seems like a lot, but time just flies by. People are nice (most of them), work is good (most of the time), everything else is good too.
Appartment
I love it. I still need a desk, a closet for my shoes, a table for the living room, and many many other things, like actual furniture in the bedroom, but I love it. And the lights-and-curtains-install-guy is supposed to show up any minute now, so I will have lights! and curtains! And they are pink! Yep, love it.
Fandom
Knowing that I would be without internet for two months (and not knowing that it would actually be five months), I started watching Stargate in February. And when I say "watching Stargate", I mean all of it. From the movie to the very last episode.
Five months later I can tell you, I didn't make it. I've religiously watched Stargate, and nothing but Stargate except for the few times I was at home watching new episodes of other shows, for four and a half months. (okay, I also watched Slings&Arrows, but that's because my brother was here and refused to watch Stargate with me). I have reached the last episode of season 8 and that's when I gave up. I just couldn't do it. Suddenly I was looking at Sam and wondering what this show was that I was watching. I don't know if it's a psychological thing, knowing that this will be the last ep with "my" team or if it is because I found most of season 8 incredibly boring. I just know that I couldn't watch any more Stargate for a while. Which is funny, because I actually liked season 9 and 10 and was actually looking forward to watching them again.
But I had to move forward, and after a weekend spent with Kevin Costner movies (I am NOT ashamed), I started watching NCIS season 1, and have now, a week later, moved on to season 2. I love that show so much. I even have a story in my head that needs to be written down, and it will. I just don't know when.
How, you will ask, do I find the time to watch so much tv when I'm working all the time? The secret is not to sleep. Yes, I realize that it's not healthy, but it's just such a waste of time. I'm down to 5 1/2 hours a night. I'm trying to sleep more, of course, but I just can't find the time.
I've read tons of fanfic in the first two months of my internetlessness, but then I ran out of unread fiction on my HD and, well, I couldn't download anything new. So I'd appreciate it if you could point me to the Must-Reads of the last six months.
That's about it, I think. I'll be back with my usual, contentless entries in no time. Oh, so happy to be back. SO HAPPY!
And despite the Stargate thing, I still love Jack and Daniel desperately. More, now that it's over, if that's even possible.
