Out of the box is where I live

Status on my BSG auction item: it has shipped and has traveled from California to Philadelphia. Estimated delivery date = Monday. Merchandise description: Costume from TV Show. LOL

Can't remember if I mentioned this here but I landed a 2nd itw for a job! (the one from last week) Itw is next Wednesday. I guess my "spontaneous cover letter" was good enough!

Have started reading the Sookie Stackhouse books. Sometimes listening to the audiobooks instead. A woman narrates the story and her Bill & Sam voices are hilarious (to me). Also, this quote:

"Eric is much better looking than I am," Bill said. "He is more powerful, and I understand sex with him is unforgettable."

LOL!

I've joined yet another whedonland-like community! It's himymland and it's focused on - wait for it - How I Met Your Mother! I bet you didn't see that coming, right? lol So please join the fun! I landed in Team Lily&Marshall.

I had other things to write about and forgot. I'm busy writing fic for the fic fest at whedonland. One is done (Better Off Ted fic!), two to go! One of these is a unlikely crossover with (so far) 3 references to 3 other shows lol.

Oh I know, I'm watching Merlin. It's fun. It makes me say things like "Hey, King Giles, shouldn't you be doing the research about spells instead of letting Gaius do it?" And of course in my mind the only Gaius is Baltar. The next episode I'm watching has Santiago Cabrera, and I knew he was in it, but I didn't know he was playing Lancelot! I find this hilarious for a reason.

Glee is back (for real) tonight!!! Fall season is starting at least!!! yay!!!

Because whedonland is awesome, it has now 2 sister communities: jjverse (teams are LOST, Alias, Fringe and Trek) and spnland (...duh?).

I'm not joining these but some of you might be interested.

I wish there was a BSG community like that! Coming up with team names is hard though (because you want people to join all teams). Possible team names: Cylons, Final Five, Military, Government, CIC, Deck Hands... or by ship: Pegasus, Galactica, Colonial One, Basestar... or maybe by planet? Caprica, Kobol, Earth... can't find a fourth... Team No Planet! Space! hahaha

Emmys noms in 40 minutes! Preparing myself to be disappointed! yay.
I love this post @ ew.com. They're rooting for Eddie & Mary in the lead actor in a drama category aww. I swear I didn't write this article.

Mary McDonnell, Battlestar Galactica: Seriously, Emmy, THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE. McDonnell's been revelatory for four seasons of BSG, and her final episodes showcased some of her finest work, as her Laura Roslin convincingly shifted from flirtatious lover to defiant cancer patient to resurgent fleet heroine. Failure to recognize her genius would be like calling Bill Gates a small business owner or saying Michael Phelps is just an okay swimmer. (Okay, so those are frakked up examples, but you know what else is frakked up? The inevitability of another McDonnell snub!)

Edward James Olmos, Battlestar Galactica: Can you imagine one of the best SciFi dramas in recent TV history without Olmos' stoic-but-tender performance? Yeah, me neither. If McDonnell gets her due, so should this dude. So say we all? So say we all!

Speaking of awards, but better ones, I forgot to post about the new Tubey Awards round. Go vote!

Been skipping a lot of your posts, f-list, because you're all posting your HP6 reviews. Who's with me to create a "I can't see the movie until August" support group? I know I'm not alone ;)
