A post that's not about Supernatural!

Why, oh why, am I still watching 24?

WHY?

The show hasn't been good since Season 3. In fact, I found Seasons 5 so very horrifically violent that I put off watching Seasons 6 and 7 for a very long time.

I feel like a battered wife*. "Oh, baby, I know you don't mean to hurt me. Maybe this time it'll be different!"

Oy.

The show has been a parody of itself for a long time. Here I was telling myself this year that at least Jack Bauer hadn't ripped out a man's jugular with his teeth (I only wish I was kidding about that), but this time around he actually eviscerated someone after torturing them.

Umm. No.

I really hope this is the last season. It's a train wreck, and yet I can't look away. Somebody put us both out of our misery, please!





*I am being flippant here, but rest assured that I take spousal abuse very seriously. I work for the police, and in no way do I think that domestic violence in any way, shape or form should be condoned.

More wittering about writing

This is me yammering on about the very boring parts of my writing. Number-crunching, basically. It's not really important or interesting for anyone except me. Unless, of course, you like reading about wordcounts and the like.


( Nattering behind the cut. )

Anyway. That's what's going through my head these days.

In mostly unrelated news, I am still looking for a good Chuck icon that says "Writing is hard!" Oh, and for a 5.04 Cas icon that says "insouciant." I keep thinking of instances when they would come in handy.

Roses in December (4/14)

So here's the next chapter! It turned into a bit of a beast, and this one character just jumped out at me out of nowhere, and since I'm not 100% sure where this fic is going, I'm too chicken to just cut the character. We'll see, I guess.
