I finally finished S3 of SGA! & it only took a week for me to do so! (I sleep too much, really.)

& you know, GOOD TIMES WERE HAD BY ALL. (well, mostly) )

Heehee, I watched A Dog's Breakfast again today . . . twice. I laughed myself into PAIN each time, even with the commentary on! I kind of want to watch it again, because my brain keeps looping the "DANCE, MONKEY, DANCE!" scene over & over & OVER in my head! O, man, I think that might be my second favourite part.

(O, & [livejournal.com profile] let_fate_decide, I SAW THE TATTOO. & Paulie's got some good arms, if I may say so!)

& AWW, Kate is still the cutest thing ever! She looks adorable in pigtails & she's so pretty & curvy! She's just so very cute!

& speaking of Stargate related things, I finally got back to watching SG-1 - I actually started to miss it while I was marathoning SGA! I took a break from it after season five (dammit, this fandom will break me by the time I'm done with it, won't it?), but tonight I was like, 'you know . . . Daniel or not, I HAVE to watch season six - I miss Sam & everyone else!' So I popped in the first four episodes & here's a couple of things I'd like to pop in & say!

- Redemption WAS SO MUCH FREAKING AWESOME! The Sam/Rodney! & the sweet little Rodney woobie moments! AAAGH, much fanbunny explosions from the awesome. & awwwwww, Sam kissed him on the cheek! (& come on Sam, you can't not be just a tiny bit into Rodney . . . can you?) ::flails:: SO. MUCH. AWESOME.

- Okay . . . I am TRYING to like & to dislike Jonas at the same time, but I think I'm actually kind of liking him! It started in Frozen, even though he sort of poked my heart a bit when he told Jack that not a day goes by when he doesn't think about what happened to Daniel. So I'm kind of torn between liking him & not liking him. Pout! He may win me over somehow . . . maybe.

- Sam's hot when she's soaking wet. Actually, make that hotter! Same goes for Jack. (I vote more underwater scenes for Amanda in S4 of SGA!)

- Sam is still love & I still ♥ her like crazy. (see? that's ONE thing I have in common with Rodney! ::giggles::)

OMFG.

MY SGA S3 DVDS WERE SUPPOSED TO BE HERE TOMORROW.

THEY CAME TODAY WHILE I WAS ASLEEP.

OMFG I AM SO HAPPY I CAN'T EVEN THINK PROPERLY!

THIS REALLY HAS BEEN A HEWLETT CHRISTMAS!

& now, how about a little babble about A Dog's Breakfast, which I BOUGHT TODAY OMG & WATCHED AS SOON AS I GOT HOME?

DAVID HEWLETT SAID 'BREKKIE'. OMGSQUEEE! (SPOILERS!) )

Today while at the bookshop, I finally, finally had a chance to read Arkham Asylum, by Grant Morrison & Dave McKean. I absolutely loved it, it was so creepy & so hallucinogenic & I really want my own copy! It actually makes me miss Black Orchid, even though I actually just reread that a few days ago. (Black Orchid is possibly my favourite non-Sandman Neil Gaiman graphic novel) Seriously. It was a great read, even for a girl that never really liked DC verse - I'm pretty much a Marvel girl, but when I was younger I was crazy about the DC verse! But whatever, I adored Arkham Asylum!

& now, I HAS SGA TO BE WATCHING OMG SO HAPPY! ::does the spastic!Betsygirl dance of JOY::
riverdresses: (daniel jackson ;; awesome ;; stunned)
UM! ::twirly hula hoop spacegirl dance:: Guess who finished season five of Stargate SG-1 last night? Yup, I did! SQUEE! I'm now offically at halftime & can now make with the fangirl squee, raves & tears!

WARNING! Capslock, squee & classy Betsy wackiness beyond this cut! O, & EXTREME DISORGANIZATION. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

I've always had a weakness for dumb blondes. )

I'm pretty pleased with all of this - I wanted to get up to season five before I took a bit of a break for SGA S3 & then slowly start getting ready for SGA S4. As soon as I'm done with SGA S3 & rewatched it a few times, I'll get started on S6 of SG-1, then continue on from there. (I've got six & seven now)

♥ ♥ ♥

Spent a couple hours with the awesome [livejournal.com profile] yasolo today, which made me exceptionally happy, because we haven't seen each other in FAR TOO LONG. We didn't do much, mostly walked around my neighborhood & scraping together money for a drink, like we did when we were kids. I had a good time & hopefully we'll get to hang out MORE, now that we're back in touch!

A Dog's Breakfast is coming out on Tuesday, along with S3 of SGA! I ordered my SGA DVDs tonight & they should be here by Wednesday - I'm buying A Dog's Breakfast at Borders! I'm so very excited! (I trust all the David Hewlett fen on my flist have seen the (non-spoilery!) one minute interview with him on Amazon, right? If not, be a good David Hewlett fan & WATCH IT, dammit!)

O, David. ::draws little hearts:: How can you be so awesome? Eeee, I am SO looking forward to S4 of SGA!
riverdresses: (daniel jackson ;; keep your chin up)
::waves at flist::

I actually wasn't going to post anything until I'd finished season five of Stargate SG-1, but o, what the hell?

I've been doing some LJ remodeling! I'm not entirely done yet, but I've got a beautiful new friends only banner, some delicious new icons (gah, I love this set of 100x100 pixels. ::licks them::) & a shiny new userinfo that sadly, I've managed to fuck up the coding on. I've tried to fix it myself & I can't figure out what I did wrong - it's driving me crazy! If it's not too much trouble, could someone maybe take a look at it & maybe help me figure out what I did wrong please? I'd really appreciate it! ::smiles::

(& how much do I love the banner on my profile layout? O, sigh!)

I've been well, nothing of interest to really discuss. I have made lots of new friends lately though! ::waves to everyone & gives you all cupcakes:: I swear, I'm not usually this boring - I'm just saving my fangirlish squee for after I've seen all of SG-1. ::grins:: But OMG SGA SEASON THREE & A DOG'S BREAKFAST ARE COMING OUT NEXT WEEKEND OMG SO EXCITED! ::vibrates with glee:: I'm ordering both this weekend & I cannot wait to get my hands on them! More David Hewlett goodness! & eee, Kate Hewlett goodness too! ::bubbles:: Ah, can Tuesday get here FASTER PLEASE?

O, well, I don't mind waiting. I like the weekend! It's the time for Betsy to be a lazy little jellybean & paint her nails, wear her glasses, eat Rasinets, stay up too late & watch Stargate SG-1 & Atlantis until her eyes melt. Yay for geeky fun!

::sighs:: I miss [livejournal.com profile] lost_little_nat. She's gone away for the weekend, so we don't get to talk, sadly. I miss her so!

& Anna Nalick's Citadel still makes me want to dance & flutter & float & be a silly little spacefae. ::twirls::

& I have the strangest craving for cotton candy, or something equally sweet, like Peeps or something. Odd! Maybe I should make more cupcakes. I want sweet treats & trifle!

Okay, no more procrastinating - going to finish reading this fic & then go blissfully geek out with my candy & sci-fi.

::sighs:: I want my spun sugar sweetness!

::stretches::

I'm currently watching the commentary on one of my favourite SGA episodes, which would be The Storm in case you couldn't guess, & AWWW, how much does David Hewlett make me smile during this? A LOT. ::squeezes David:: I do so love this episode & him doing commentary on it just makes me even happier.

& ooo, guess what? There's Laura/Teyla on my flist! ::squees & shooes you off to [livejournal.com profile] sg_femslash::

I'm planning on deleting all of my icons & reuploading a fresh set in batches of ten to represent my four fandoms . . . & I have over five thousand LJ icons for a LOT more fandoms than just four . . . this should be interesting. ::hides::

Pout, episode's over. Ooo, music! ::opens iTunes::

♥ ♥ ♥

I've been having Elizabeth/Radek (or Weir/Zelenka, if you're bad with first names!) bunnies hopping around my headspace for a week or so now. It's just one really, but it's been nibbling away at me for a whole week now! It's nothing life-altering, I think, just an Earth based AU of sorts. I'm a bit shy to say anything about it, just because, well . . . this is SGA fic I'm thinking of writing & that fandom already has such wonderful writers, but no one writes enough Elizabeth/Radek & well . . . I'm just so nervous to even put my head underwater in this fandom & of course, the ever-present feelings of total inadequacy that I have about my writing are rearing their ugly heads, so that's why I'm so hesitant, I suppose.

(yes, that last sentence made no sense, but just go with it if you can understand it, mmkay?)

I've also been struck with a Laura/Teyla bunny, but I'm way more comfortable writing this one! Plus, my prompt can go smutty or as girlishy/femmeslashily innocent as I choose to make it. Plus, stickfighting! That could be fun to write. ::nods::

(not sure why I feel more comfortable writing girlslash than I do with het - maybe it's my choice of pairings that I feel just a bit more comfortable with?)

. . . Hmm, I really do want to write that one. ::thinks::

Alos, in-between fic-thinking, I've been thinking about more mixes - I know I'll be doing a Daniel Jackson one, but I'm not sure when. I'm thinking I should see more SG-1 first - at least up to season three, ideally five, or the whole series before I start mixing him, but I'm so impatient & I want to do it now! But of course, I've got a Sheppard mix I'm still considering doing & I should do that one first, the lines of fannish order & all that, you know.

So, a poll!

[Poll #1046827]

Yup, Daniel gets the long title. ::giggles:: I couldn't stop myself - ever since I decided I'd make a mixthing for him, I knew that would be my title. An alternate title for . . . either mix actually, would be walking on clouds, walking on stars from Anna Nalick's Citadel, because it makes me think of Daniel too & not just John apparently.

& yes, I STILL have the Mal/Simon mix to upload, SOON, I PROMISE!

::sighs:: Have class tomorrow. Must sleep. & my mother's bribing me to sign up for two more classes so I have no free days off by promising to buy me stuffs at Target. I might actually take her up on it, in case they have season two of Supernatural or more SG-1 that I can get my hands on.

& speaking of SG-1, I'm getting seasons two & three tomorrow after class & before seeing Laurie. Yay! More Sam & Daniel awesomeness for me to see!
