So here's one of those random posts --
Two people on my flist requested I write a Sawyer-baby fic - probably because I'd just written the very fluffy "Cats and Dogs." So I started one, but honestly, I'm not liking it much. So, instead I am shooing you all towards
eponine119's fab fic, Babysitting. It has a touch of Sawyer angst to keep things from getting too damn sweet. So, go read and enjoy.
In other fic news, I feel so bad about neglecting "Happy Birthday!" Is it because I got on board the J/S slash train and never looked back? Or simply that I got stuck? A little of both. And I don't have a brilliant writing partner on that one, like I do on "Night Fall," so slightly less motivated to keep it going. But I just started working on the next chapter again ... urgh. Hope to finish soon and post the darn puppy!
I stayed up til 3 am last night watching old tapes of Foxy's show "Haunted" after seeingcrystalkirk's fab icons. And you know what - the show was not even as good as I remembered! I think I was just blinded by the Foxy love back then and all the mega-angst. The actress who played his wife may be the worst actress ever in the history of television. Just truly, truly awful. And now we know when Foxy got his tats - after that show was filmed because he didn't have the pyramid/5 tattoo on his bicep yet or the inner-arm one with flames yet. (Or they were covered with makeup, I suppose.) I thought I had the pilot ep (the one where he is stabbed/shot and dies and comes back to life - major angst!) but I couldn't find it last night. So do I want to get the whole series on bootleg on eBay ... maybe I still do!
And the last ep I watched was the worst written - completely predictable since the man sees ghosts, and if he hasn't seen a ghost all ep, chances are, the people's he stuck with are, yep, ghosts. But in this one, he's been in a car accident in a remote area and they take him in and take care of him but at one point they tie him to a bed! Crystal, where are the screencaps of that?
In discussing old New Order withphilomel, I realize I don't have one of my favorite songs/EPs: "Everything's Gone Green/Mesh/Hurt." But I swore I had it once. Maybe on tape? Looks like I'd have to buy it on vinyl on eBay to get it on its own, or shell out for a mega box set. I already have almost everything else, though, so would it be worth it? (thinks hard)
And that band Louis XIV is another '80s throwback. Anyone remember The Fall? They sounded *very* similar.

You know, I take it back about his TV wife being the worst actress ever - that title must belong to Neve Campbell. I used watch "Po5" but Neve finally drove me away. Blech.
As for Party of Five, I think it was Lacey Chabert (is that her name? Claudia on the show) who drove me away. Her voice was just so annoying. And of course, Jennifer Love Hewitt didn't help matters either. *puke* Why couldn't they add more guys instead of busty girls on that show? Why!!!
And you at least tried to watch Haunted so I'm giving you your badge back. Pardon me, just having a crappy, sense-of-humor free day. I'll just be over here, drinking and glaring with Sean Penn.
I can put in a request for that New Order EP in a music/mp3 community. There's no guarantee anyone will have it, but I can try. :)
*adores Louis XIV & The Fall*
Aye aye! ;-D
Ooh, thanks for asking about that elusive New Order for me! (loves you)
I used to have some Fall albums but I don't think I kept them. The lead singer (what was his name - Marc something?) did that same sing-speaking thing that the guy from Louis XIV does, and that same kind of detached tone. Cool stuff.
Oh, I hate when I do that. *nods* He does sound like a slightly more cracked-out Mark E. Smith. :)
I did purge some vinyl a few years ago, even, some, gasp, New Order, like "Power, Corruption Lies" and some Smiths. (shakes head at self) I think that song I'm looking for was only ever on tape, though, which isn't really like having it all, is it? (Ah, mix tapes and college. I'm on a total CD making binge. Makes me all nostalgic.)
I totally know what bed-tying one you're talking about. Whoa. That was a bad episode. (It had the woman that played Gina on Nip/Tuck was in it too, heh.) I'll try to do caps soon, but seriously, the quality sucks up one side and down the other.
That episode was so lame! Just insulting to the audience because we already had it completely figured out. If I weren't a hurt/comfort Foxy freak, I wouldn't have ever watched it once, let alone twice!
