The cat is asleep on my ankle. I see pins and needles in my future.

I don't think anyone does but...Today has been declared lurker amnesty day! Have you read me but never commented? Do you surf by occasionally? Here for the fic recs? Say hello! You are under no obligation to ever comment or delurk again, but here's a chance to do so in a post just half for that.


Also I think I finally have an unpopular fandom opinion \o/ 

Here it is: Sherlock Holmes is a god-awful movie. You know that generally I love bad movies - I say YES to giant killer bunny rabbits! YES to mutant shep on the rampage. YES to giant chicken feet of doom!* - but this wasn't even one of the so bad its good kind of films. It was just bad. Let me prove it to you [very very briefly]:

• This is not a Holmes movie. It's a generic action blockbuster shoved into a period setting
• Jude Law's forehead is terrifying

That said, I only lasted 35 minutes! Maybe it gets better after that?  Doubt it :P

I haven't seen Holmes yet - funny observations though! LOL!

I am a lurker - like to add the odd tidbit here and there though. Truly love your fic recs. Go there now and again when I need to read something juicy or angsty! Lots of fun!

Something about me - hmmmm... Married, dog, two kids, two fish. Like SPN, Star Wars, Star Trek, Gone With the Wind, Jane Austen, Charlotte Bronte, Jared and Jensen (of course) - but totally a Sam-girl, and enjoy long walks on the beach at sunset. LOL! (*giggle* The last one was just for shits and giggles!) Tah, Tah!

Oh, watched Avatar - thought it was good but didn't like the 'Titanic'-like moment at the end though.

Also, didn't care so much for Adam's 'Colonel Sanders' tie look. Not so much. LOL! Gorgeous boy though!

*g* Are you planning to?

Nah! I know you :) But THANK YOU its always nice to hear the recs are being used by someone other than me.

Awwww. Two kids! I can barely cope with one cat. Kudos. I like those authors too, but I'm gonna have to go with Emily Bronte as my most read thanks to Wuthering Heights.

Hmmm. I'm going to wait on Avatar. the idea of spending a billion hours with it ar the cinema fills me with dread, so I'm going to see it when it's on the small screen. Loss of the magnificence of the special effects is worth it for smoking and toilet breaks :)

He is GORGEOUS *happy sigh* I liked the weird little bolo thing. I thought it stopped his outfit from being too plain ♥

I didn't know Adam could be too plain! Ha, ha! Is that even possible?


I just started watching 'Wuthering Heights' again last night (the one with Laurence Olivier and Merle Oberon). I was just thinkin' I should read the book again though - it's kinda a weird one.

Yeah, I sometimes have an oops moment when I look at my LJ for story updates an my kids are hovering and I say, "Aaahh! That's not really a pic for you guys to look at!" or "How come they're kissing?" LOL! Too funny! (*nudge* FYI: Mommy's a pervie!)


Tah, Tah! (Saw a fic rec list of movie inspired J2 fics - some of them are f-locked, which is annoying, or others have been purged, etc. How annoying is that!?!!!)

*g* Shoulda prefaced that with too plain for Adam!

It is a strange book, with its violence, strange narrative and and strongly colloquial speech, but I love it and the ending with Hareton and Cathy never fails to make me cry!

Hahaha. That must be strange!

Yeah. Lots of people keeping locking up or deleting fic :( It's sad. That's a cool rec list though!

I guess if there are one's that I really wanted to read you might know another source to find them or something - who knows?

You know it's kinda funny - you'll start readin' a fic and part way through it's either dragging or whatever but you can't stop reading it 'cause it's like a train wreck and you can't look away! LOL! Maybe I'm being mean - these people did after all put a lot of time and effort into their fics and I should just shut up and keep reading, right? Ha, Ha! Not being an author of one myself, I should shut up! LOL!

Whatever... 'How's about Adam?' (*changes subject*)

*giggle* YAY ADAM!

Did you see his birthday & holiday pictures? SO PRETTY :D
