+ I visited Switzerland (and a bit of France). Well, I actually visited [profile] rei_ who happens to be there. I saw bears, bought chocolate and lost a bit of my characteristic pallor. I also saw first-hand how ridiculous being heads over heels in a new relationship can turn an otherwise normal person. This makes me 90% deliriously happy for said person, 10% lonely (80-20, depending on the time of the month; not sure if it's one of my issues or just human nature). Oh, I also butchered the French language like I was getting paid to do it.

+ [personal profile] cuits wrote me a NCIS fic for the [community profile] help_japan. It's called "Action and Reaction", and it's my new canon as far as Ziva and Tony are concerned. It fixes the clusterfuck that is their characterization in the last season and it makes me (much) less rage-y about the show in general (none of which is an easy feat).

+ Talking about fic, [community profile] the_fic_filter is two posts away from its rec #300. It makes me kind of proud in a very silly way. We are even planning to do something ~different for post #300.


+ Game of Thrones. A couple of very lame thoughts and a question )

+ I've started watching The Wire. It's as good as they say it is. (Also, Broyles! And Henry the taxi driver!!)

+ The [profile] lots_pornbattle is accepting prompts. I'm trying to think of some of them, and turns out the only things that come to mind involve ~feelings. THIS WORRIES ME GREATLY.

+ Good Girls Gone Geek are doing a re-read of The Sandman. This is a fabulous excuse to put to good use the gorgeous Absolute Sandman editions I bought. They put very nicely why everyone should read it and I even offer to share the whole thing if anyone's interested (not my re-reading it, which I may also share, but the comic).
