bironic: Neil Perry gazing out a window at night (Default)
[personal profile] bironic
Apparently today was moving day? Since I just carted almost all of my stuff over from apartment 1 to apartment 2. I was going to wait until the weekend, but TV and Internet got installed this morning and I had to stay overnight last night to be here when the tech came, so some of my stuff was here already, and this is boring—but the point is that I'm moved and I have a TV with 100 channels plus six months' free HBO and Showtime, which is about 95 more channels than I'll ever watch, but now I can watch True Blood and House and various movies and boycott SyFy. Luxury! I don't have a desk or a table or even a chair, so everything's on the floor except my alarm clock, and also the place reeks of cleaning solvents that I am battling with piddly Gladé air fresheners, but I do have a super-awesome gigantic bed with the sort of S&M frame I've dreamed of since I was a kid. (Some girls want canopy beds. Others want metal bars.)

Speaking of which, there's a PWP I want to post. Just need to write some fairly substantial author's notes to go along with it. Unless they turn out not to be so long when I get started.

How're you?

That's cool that you have free HBO and Showtime. Hopefully you'll have a chance to watch at least some worthwhile movies or shows.

I'm assuming the reason you're boycotting the SciFi Channel (I refuse to spell it the new way) is because of the SGU kerfluffle. I've been following that on [livejournal.com profile] sheafrotherdon's LJ and have been appalled by the level of fail involved in the whole matter, from the casting call to the comments by various Powers That Be and fanboys. *shakes head in disbelief* Thank god TPTB can't fuck up the SGA characters any more than they already have.

I lost my love for the channel a while back, lost respect when it changed its spelling, and now the SGU stuff is another nail in its coffin. :(

What the hell IS that with the spelling?

/random

But TV is good. It sounds very Zen, but with bondage potential XD

*g* Though I'm already finding that all the interesting channels aren't included - Science, HBO On Demand, BBC America...

p.s. Don't say that until the SGA movie comes out.

I'm assuming that the SGA movie will never get made, given the headlines I've glimpsed on Gateworld regarding how much money they're wasting on a worthless, exploitative show SGU.

At this point, I really don't want an SGA movie: I'm too afraid of what they might come up with. I'd prefer to stick with fanfic.

Edited to fix tags, since they really do need to be in brackets.
