I've been at work until 2am 3 of the last 5 nights because shit just did not get done while I was on holiday and now I have to save the world before the holidays. I am probably best described as more fragile than I should be, but I think I'm finally getting all this crap to heel.
I just wrote about 700 words of pure awesome.
Dogboy & Justine fundraising is chugging the hell along this fine morning (we are $61 away from being down to needing less than $1,000) and I am so grateful.
Crash course film school this weekend. And apartment cleaning. My life it is glamorous.
Actually, you want to see how unglamorous my life is -- follow me on fucking Four Square. It's like all Duane Reade all the time.
Having not bought a dress when I was thinking of it, or a coat, because neither were quite right, I'm still having the itch to reward myself in some manner. I'm thinking opera tickets. It's been a real balm lately.
An Erica who is not Erica of Treble Entendre is raising money to make Geek Girl Con happen. I hope to be able to go to this con and talk about cool shit when it becomes an actual thing, and I bet a bunch of you might want to too. So check it out.
Whovians: The Master, on Formspring. Oh, it's so wrong, it's right. (Warning: NSFW language, non-con, violence, etc. About what you'd expect from fandom with a character like that).
Ugh, flights to Gally this year are a special clusterfuck. I'm having trouble making useful decisions that involve stupid prices, stupid scheduling issues, professional concerns and my whole "it just isn't Gally without Virgin America" feeling, which is totally, ludicrously true for me.
So how about that un-aired Sherlock pilot? Super weird, yeah? And made John and Sherlock seem even more couple-ly than they do in the show we actually got. Unaired pilots are so peculiar.
The unfortunate costuming (seriously, what was with the whole black jeans thing on Sherlock?) and cinematography aside, I actually preferred the pacing of the unaired pilot to "A Study in Pink." I feel like the speed and manner which Sherlock came to his conclusions was far truer to the character. Other parts of the script didn't work so well, and the climax was just all kinds of messed up, though.
And yeah, the subtext was just actual text in that one.
yes! yes! in 'a study in pink' i was so frustrated that i figured it out before the greatest detective in the world! that is the one thing i really wish they'd kept from the pilot
exactly! i was so... UGH that i figured it out like 20 minutes before he did - but then in the pilot sherlock had it and he was trying to lead john, and therefore the audience, to the right conclusion
