misscamRight. So my brother and his girlfriend are visiting, which is why I am a bit absent and behind on things. We've been out doing stuff, including an amusement part where my head had an unfortunate encounter with a steel trash bin. Don't ask, it's profoundly stupid.
In summary of stuff going on:
1. Congratulations to Spain on winning the Euro, and deservedly so. They were the best during the match, and hey, they've certainly waited long enough for it.
2. WTF Berlusconi?! Fingerprinting gypsy children for being only that, are you fucking kidding me?! SO. MUCH. FAIL. Seriously, what the shit is this shit and WHAT. I just... WHAT THE RAGING EVERLASTING FRAK? What the hell is going on in Italy?![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
falena84, maybe you should take your mother's suggestion and marry me for Norwegian citizenship already. Because whatever is going on in your country, *that* is such a bad sign it gives me shivers.
3. I saw the Doctor Who episode. I has Worries (so many it needs a capital letter) about the next one, and therefore hold my opinion on it so far. I haven't really had time to check fandom opinion on it much (apart from modding T&C), so tell me, has there been implosion yet or is everything storing up for part two?
4. Speaking of Doctor Who, this one, which I did see. Drawing a line between what is bashing and what isn't can be tricky at times, which we also come up against on T&C. But eh well, do the best you can, right?
5. When you see this post, quote from Doctor Who on your LJ.
The Doctor: What do you think of that, now, eh? A Viking helmet.
Steven Taylor: Maybe.
The Doctor: What do you mean, "maybe"? What do you think it is, a space helmet for a cow?
6. And my own version: When you see this post, quote from Battlestar Galactica on your LJ.
William Adama: What can I get you?
Laura Roslin: A new body. Perhaps one of those young Cylon models from the Resurrection Ship
Adama: I can't see you as a blonde.
Roslin: You'd be surprised.
7. Brother loves the BSG. It's quite funny, actually. We've made it past Resurrection Ship II, and I've observed the following things so far:
- Brother has no love lost for Lee. At all. Rolling his eyes, calling him the 'terrible spawn' - yeah, there's not much Lee love there.
- Brother has deep love of Adama senior, despite a tendency to call him Obama accidentally. (Which always makes me laugh.) When That Thing happened at the end of season one, brother was rather annoyed, and when Admiral Cain showed up in Pegasus he was downright perturbed when she took command from Adama, even crossing his arms while watching. 'How long do I have to endure ths shit?' was his exact quote on Adama not in charge. When Laura promotes Bill, brother wondered why she didn't promote him even further. Clearly, Admiral is not good enough. (Brother also liked the kiss, calling it 'a cute life-time partner thing', referring to them being partners in leading the Fleet. I think he will approve of the eventual pair-up.)
- Chief should end up with Boomer again, in bro's opinion.
- I think bro rather fancies an Eight/Six girl-fight.
- Originally being quite unkeen on visions and that aspect of the, bro's now really quite into it and trying to lure out of me who'se behind it all. Since I don't know, that's easy enough to avoid spoiling.
- Rewatching it chronologically when knowing where it ends up really does fill you with an appreciation for the structure of the story.
- My brother and I sharing tastes is once again apparent.
8. Fic planning for the summer:
- Banter fic forbluerosefairy. Adama/Roslin and boxing, which is rather leading me down the path of Intentional Bad Euphemisms. Hmm.
- My assignment for the A/R gift exchange. Shh, it's secret what I'm doing.
- "What We Live By", the topic 'comfort' for the A/R month of love in August.
- A piece contrasting the story being read by the decendants of Galactica with what really happened, how stories change into what we want to make of them.
- Hera walking the dreams of the Galactica crew.
- If what might happen in the DW finale does happen, a story about having memories of something that never really happened to you and others having to deal with it. (Vague enough for you?)
- Whatever else strikes my brain.
9. Another chapter is the never-ending soap opera of the American embassy in Norway. *facepalm* Can we just like get that thing done already before the entire population of Norway ends up arguing over it?
10. And how are you all?
