Important changes in my life will cause me to stay away from fannish things even more than I am right now. Though, these last weeks, I feel like I've actually spent quite a lot of time here and I intend to keep that up. I just need to focus my fannish energies. In order to make more room for my life, I've stopped buying books (but I'm trying) cut down my TV watching schedule.

Here's what remains:

The Unit (SO EXCITED! YAY UNIT! BOB!)
NCIS (duh!)
Supernatural (what did you think?)
Numb3rs (so much love. I just wish they'd give an advance warning for the obligatory three boring eps every season)
Bones (OMG the Bones!love!)
Brothers&Sisters
CSI (for now, I may have to cut CSI later, but I feel rather loyal towards it. I've never missed an episode.)
Desperate Housewives (for now. I'm not at all fannish about the show, but I like watching it, and I think I will miss the people if I stop)
Doctor Who (which won't come back forever)
Eureka (very likely going to be cut later this year)
Torchwood (for now, will likely be cut due to exceedingly bad acting by John Barrowman and no more Tosh love)

I will only be adding one new show this fall season, Leverage, and it's only because there is always time for a dosis of Christian Kane on my screen. Except, if the how doesn't get better, I'd rather look at pictures or rewatch Angel.

It still looks like a lot, but with Torchwood and Doctor Who not coming back for a long time, it really isn't. Significant cuts were House, SGA and Burn Notice. Don't get me wrong, I love House, but I'm not interested enough in the actual content of the show to keep watching with the limited time that I now have. I'm actually trying to cut down to just NCIS, Numb3rs, Supernatural, Bones and The Unit, which would still give me almost one show every day that I don't have time for. DW would stay as an extra, as it is shown when the others are on hiatus anyway. However, I cannot really imagine living without Brothers&Sisters. We'll see how it works.


Most likely I will also be doing a massive flist cut. I haven't decided on anything yet, but if you always wanted to get rid of me but just felt that you couldn't unfriend me for some reason (why that would be escapes me), now would be a good time. I might still keep you friended though, because if I have friended you now, it's very likely that you are interesting and that I don't want to get rid of you. Which is the real problem - I don't want to unfriend anyone right now. I love my flist. But ti's too big, so it's either unfriending or rigorous filtering. I'll figure that out if I ever have the time.

It's kind of sad how reorganizing my real life means cutting down my tv watching. I guess that means that it was long overdue.



To those of you who were wondering: I did it.
*beams*

I'm back from the most fabulous vacation ever. I'd tell you all about it, but I'm too busy catching up on slash and vids. (also, I hear there are new ipods, and hey, mine seems to have breathed his last breath just yesterday, how's that for timing?). So here's the summary:

I LOVE LOVE LOVE horses.

I LOVE France.

I love podslash.

I had dreams about a fic where Cameron is Daniel's something (I'm not sure what to call it, but I'm sure it involves a collar), and one night Daniel is somewhere (who cares about details?) where he runs into a not-so-happy-to-be-back-on-earth John Sheppard wearing eyeliner, and maybe glitter, and the he takes him home for Cameron. I'm currently looking for this fic all over, because I'm sure it must exist. DAniel. John. Cameron.
GLITTER.
Come on.

I did not write any postcards, but fear not, for I will leave for Hungary on Tuesday. I hear they have postcards there, too. I wonder if I can get a new ipod in just two days.

Thank you anonymous wonderful person who gave me a virtual rose! It has made me very very happy, and it couldn't have come at a better time. I wish there was anything I could offer in return, but my skills in making fannish gifts are non-existant, so I hope you'll take my happiness and the big smile that has planted itself on my face as a thank you.

*hugs*
