bironicMy magnificent friend ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
catilinarian was visiting from Friday until this morning, with a bonus cameo by the illustrious maddy_harrigan on Sunday, so it has been a busy and wonderful week. Movies and TV were watched (X-Men: The Last Stand and Longing [Saudade], DS9's "Improbable Cause"/"The Die is Cast" and SGA's "Grace Under Pressure"), food eaten ("sunny" and volcano rolls at local sushi restaurant = divine, as are sidewalk-cart Firecracker Popsicles at 2 p.m. on 90-degree days in the city), plays seen (Frost/Nixon with Michael Sheen, Frank Langella and Remy Auberjonois [René Jr.]), museums visited (gorgeous new classical wing at the Met), books ogled (Men of WWII: Fighting Men at Ease), fanfics celebrated and mocked (rec and possible MST forthcoming), conversations had (innumerable), work attended (ah, you can't have it all), etc. They both live in London now, so our time together must be savored more than ever.
The only downside was that, though I have been starving for a decent thunderstorm this season, the traffic caused by flooding rains and lightning in our area this morning meant that it took an obscenely long time to get C. to the airport for her flight to Chicago. The good news is, we made it on time after much figurative nail-biting, and I subsequently made it to work without collision or submersion, if a few hours later than I'd hoped.
Also, my awesome cousin is going to be in town soon, and my dad will be away this weekend, and so for the next few days I can do whatever I want (e.g. write and read) without grief or guilt from anyone.
And that's good, because fandom-wise there's that fic I really want to MST (haven't tried that before) and there are movie writeups to do and SGA Big Bang novellas to read and the![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
dvd_commentary challenge to consider and two fics to work on and a non-LJ fic index to construct and...
That aside, a moment of well-wishing in all seriousness for the swift recovery ofscribblinlenore, who fell gravely ill and has been hospitalized since last week, though rumor has it she's going to be released soon, with a long recuperation ahead. Healing in the guise of shameless porn is welcome at allvoodooanyway.
