Spike's Bitches 31: We're Motivated Go-getters.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
it is too hot to sleep.
It really is. Though I managed to for a few hours which is impressive as I have become completely and shamelessly nocturnal in this heat. And now I am even going to go back to the Room With the Fan in the Window and read, perchance to sleep.
Cass, I hope you don't mind, but it looks like Kittenish is going to have a namesake.
Aww, that is sweet. I hope Baby!Kittenish is as happy and loved as her namesake.
Personally, I have a terrible time trying to name pets. Most of mine have been named by friends, actually. Actually a lot of them have even been nicknamed by others. Trudy coined Puppycat. Kittenish is actually mine though. I just started calling her that one day. It worked.
Okay, back to reading a truly awful book about Seductresses. Or, hopefully, falling back into a coma to avoid reading it.
And Indian short-haired otters are cool.
How do they differ from other otters?
...see
I
was assuming it was because they had spicier food and better stylists, and the Hec seal of approval. But maybe otters don't need seals of approval, or indeed seals in general.
Good morning peoples! Fay! How goes coping with the unnatural heat?
But maybe otters don't need seals of approval, or indeed seals in general.
Well certainly not when you already have otters. Seals are cute critters though.
Okay, either back to bed now or out to sit in the pool and read by flashlight (torch) for a bit.

When not visiting old ladies over the past week, I've done a lot of Staying Indoors Catching Up On Telly (via newly-acquired DVDs and/or downloads), actually - although really I should be outside sweating it out, because Bangkok is going to be hot like a hot thing.
Loved
Season 2 of
Veronica Mars.
Loved loved loved. Also loved
NUMB3RS
to pieces, to the point that I'm almost on the brink of trying to make a fanvid. Almost. But probably the apathy will get in the way.
Am now launching onto the waters of
Supernatural -
have watched six episodes so far. Boys v. pretty, ghosts v. scary. Ought to go and find me some fic, really...
Loved Season 2 of Veronica Mars
I've been reading your watch and posts on lj. It's so much fun seeing people's reactions when I know what's coming. Mwahahahah!
Loved Season 2 of Veronica Mars
I didn't love it as shown. It would have worked better for me in marathon. This should be the only way I watch shows. This one bit a week with the occasional month long break doesn't work for me anymore.
I love the otter talk since I am semi-vacationing in Otter Lake. Haven't seen any of the cuties yet this year. I have seen some muck gobbling carp though. The town bought over a thousand of them at $8 each to try and clean up the bottom of the lake some. Hope it works.
Slut that I am I had sex with each of my 3 husbands on the first date. Had no intention of marrying any of them. When will I ever learn?
The denoument was VERY satisfying, imho - there were things I'd sort of suspected, but other things I totally didn't see coming. Loved it. Really looking forward to Season 3...which I'll probably be mainlining about twelve months from now.
Quite apart from the acting (which is consistently good) and the writing (which ditto), I really do love the
look
of the show. Which I rambled on about at some length, I know, but - it's so PRETTY! So many many scenes are shot like some sort of Hopper painting, only more so - silhouettes and shadows and walls of coloured light and fascinating textures and patterns...just beautiful. Consciously so. Good job, set-and-light guys!

This pretty much
is
the only way I watch shows, for the past couple of years. May change when I'm in Bangkok, but I'm not holding my breath...
Hi Fay!
I discussed my issues with VM at the end of the season in that thread. Mostly I adore the characters and the snappy dialogue. But really it's further along the bleak curve than I like. Both seasons upset me. There is so much good that I will come back for S3, but I hope like hell that the underlying issues don't involve
rape
or
child abuse.
That just isn't so much entertaining for me.
Hi Fay! I'm glad you're enjoying VM and SPN. I posted a couple of fic links in the fanfic thread for the latter.
One of the reasons I like VM is that it gives people so much to discuss. I lent my S1 dvds to a coworker just so I could have someone at work to burble on about the show with.
