So much going on!!

Oh life!

As far as real life goes things are moving along. Work is good. I really like all my co-workers and what I do. Typing is calming to me (which I obviously thinks come from all the writing I do for fandom) and there's always something to do so the day passes really quickly. The only big drawback is that it doesn't pay well. I mean it does for someone with no education, but for having a masters degree it's really just a joke. We're official moving in March though so I'm looking for something more in my field. I want to be a key account relationship manager. We'll see how it goes. I think I'd actually be good at it though. 

The only other drawback to the office is all the DRAMA. There's around 100 women all in the same space so things often get out of hand as I'm sure you can imagine. Fortunately it doesn't really bother me. Except for when it threatens my work value or character. Most of the lawyers are elitist jerks, but I don't see most of them and the ones I do work with are nice (most of the time).

Next week we're moving out of my parents house and into our own apartment closer to our current jobs. I'M EXCITED!!!!! Living with my mom has been nice since they're moving so far away and I won't get to see them often, but I need my own space like whoa. If I don't get time to myself I get grumpy and feel on edge. I've been trying to cope but I'm starting to feel boxed in and am just SO READY for Jared and I to have our own place again. Not to mention our own internet that actually works. 

As for fandom I added 3k words to my superbang fic that I wasn't sure I was actually going to do. It's an infidelity fic and I normally won't touch the subject. I don't know why my muse wanted to write it. I've been in weird moods lately and it's been strangely easy to write. Though writing everything from Allison's point of view is kind of strange. She's an odd character that I actually don't care for very much. Regardless, I do like what I have so far. It's going to be angsty and a little dark. Mainly I'm just proud of doing something so far out of my comfort zone even though I doubt anyone will even read it >.> <.<

I haven't been able to watch the past two Merlin's because I don't have a good enough connection to download them :((( I've seen spoilers on Tumblr and dear goodness me, I NEED TO SEE THESE EPS LIKE I NEED AIR!!!!! NEXT WEEKEND I'M DOWNLOADING THEM ALL!!! 

Supernatural...well I can't even deal with all the feelings of the Destiel. No really, if I try and talk about I'll end up in a giant pile of goo and feelings. 

TVD has been amazing and I'm super excited to see where they go with it. Overall just super happy to have my fall lineup back. WOOT!!

SPN review

These big epic fics are seriously about to kill me.

My muse is so much easier to please when I do cute little one shots when inspiration hits. These monster fics are making my muse get all kinds of grumpy. grrrr she really needs to get over this!

Black Friday Results and AHS Review

I LOVE SHOPPPPPIIIINNNNGGGGG!!!!

*ahem*

So the trip to Wal-Mart last night was an absolute disaster. I pride myself on always getting the stuff on my list. In all the years of black friday shopping I've only ever missed ONE thing- ever! So you can imagine my pain and sorrow when I didn't get the only thing on my list this year. I cried in the car much to my husbands confusion. He was being a sweetheart and saying he would get the dvd for me for Christmas, but he really didn't understand that wasn't the point.

WELL---this morning I check Amazon.com and the exact same thing is going to go on sale for the same price in an hours time. oh my, was that exciting! I GOT ONE TOO! I can keep my reputation of always getting my stuff :)

Then today I went to Best Buy and they still had copies of Supernatural Season 6 and I got mine for ONLY $3.00!!!! *EEK*!!!! It was so wonderful to feel that giddy feeling of shopping again. And I don't even have to feel bad about it as I literally spent like $15.00 today and that's all. *tear* so. happy. Also picked up the stuff I need to make my holiday cards for everyone.

My husband and I are putting up our Christmas tree tonight and I'm REALLY excited!!! I've finally decided what to get him for Christmas, but I'm not super sure we can afford it. He wants those really fancy gaming headphones by turtle beach. They have all different kinds varying in price so I'm hoping I can find a nice pair on Cyber Monday.

Also, a big thank you to [livejournal.com profile] ronsoftie for making me the most awesome Percival/Elyan icons *hugs*

Finally, my review on this weeks American Horror Story:

AHS Thoughts )

EDIT: I just got those headphones for $40 (normally $60) plus free shipping! YAY!

Merlin & SPN Reaction +Weekend Ongoings

Well I had a pretty good weekend! How about all of you?

Friday night I was exhausted after having to function all day on only four hours of sleep. We played The Settlers of Catan and I was a bit snarky considering I'm already a competitive person and I had no filter whatsoever with the exhaustion.

Saturday I literally did nothing but work on my hols fic. [livejournal.com profile] wolfangeldeath were in chat all day and she was the best. encouraged me and then kicked me in the butt when I needed it :) Thank you to everyone for your support! I finished editing it this morning and now it's off to my other beta.

After finishing my fic last night we went to a friends house and had a couple drinks. I didn't think I had that much, but I'm apparently I lightweight these days, and ended up pretty drunk. It was fun though, some girlfriend of mine were there that I hadn't seen in a while and we had some really nice girl time. Sadly I did manage to pull a muscle in the middle of my shoulder blades and it hurts. Only other downfall was that I got really mad at my husband over something completely stupid. I was honestly a complete and utter bitch and I feel terrible about it today. I have no idea what was up my butt, but I said some of the most hateful things ever- for no reason! I've apologized, and he's not even upset cus he knew I was being drunk and ridiculous....but I'm still upset with myself. Words can really hurt people and I try so hard to watch what I say. My mother raised me to be sensitive to other people's feelings. Plus I really have very little respect for wives that belittle their husbands. I want to be treated like a lady and in turn I try to treat my husband with respect and like he's a man. I feel like I undid four years of respect in one drunken escapade. *sigh* He's so laid back but I don't feel like sorry was enough. I'm just so confused as to what set me off like that. I think I need to pull out the old journal and spend time doing some self reflection.

ANYWAYS...No Once Upon a Time tonight :( But I did watch Merlin and Supernatural this weekend. Thoughts:

tiny bit of show reviews

wow, I don't know how it happened, but I think I actually got caught up on all my tv this week! So here's my reviews:

Ringer

This show is keeping me intrigued enough to keep dvr'ing it, but I'm certainly not all 'omg is it Tuesday yet?'

American Horror Story

OMG!! This show is just so good! I'm completely hooked! This episode was particularly great! I felt so horrible for Tate :(


Vampire Diaries )

Secret Circle

This show is picking up and I'm SO glad! I may be a bit of a Jake/Cassie shipper now :)

Supernatural

LOVING THIS SEASON LIKE WHOA!!!!!!  Oh boys <3

Merlin )

Once Upon A Time

LOVING this show!!! Prince Charming and Snow are just too adorable. Though I looked it up and Snow White's prince was actually just "The Prince". Cinderella's prince was actually "Prince Charming" and so was Sleeping Beauty's, but he also had a real name of "Prince Phillip".

Meh, not super awesome reviews this week. I'm tired and lazy and have one more week of crazy grad school before I can be free again!

Merlin review and other random stuff

Hello all!

Merlin was AMAZING as per usual!! My thoughts under the cut:

Merlin Review ) 

My weekend was pretty good in general. Had our Halloween party on Saturday night. Which meant I had to clean the house. Oh man, I had really let the housework go. It took me forever to get everything picked up, scrubbed and then decorated. The upside is that my house is now actually clean :) Plus the party itself was pretty fun!

Sunday I finally got to watch Merlin. Completely forgot to watch Once Upon a Time as my husband was home and we watched Captain America. I really liked it! I can't wait for the Avengers movie next summer- it's going to be SOOOOO amazing!! And so full of hotness I might pass out! Thor and Captain America on the same screen *gulp* *fans self* um...yeah..

Hope you all had a fun weekend too!

emo-ish stuff and TVD review


This week has been an emotional rollercoaster. I considered going on hiatus for the month of November but then decided I was being a big fat baby and needed to get over myself. So I did, and yesterday I was really really cheerful for no reason. This morning I'm grumpy from lack of sleep and needing new contacts (my eyes are all bloodshot and angry). But I no longer feel like giving up on writing. I swear my tattoo was the best idea ever. Any time I get discouraged it reminds me to stop being a brat =D

In other real life news, I finally got all my operations management homework turned in. YAY!! Spent the entire day at the library trying to figure out utilization equations and production capacity. Really not enjoyable, but I think I got it. Also found out I got a 60/70 on the test with a chance for 10 extra credit points so I may graduate after all! YAY!!

Stayed up for to late last night catching up on tv with the husband. Day before yesterday we watched two episodes of American Horror Story which was AMAZING!! I'm so addicted to this show it's ridiculous. Every time it ends I'm just like- I want more more more! It's getting easy to tell who is and isn't a ghost which makes it slightly easier to understand the plot.

Then last night I watched Vampire Diaries, two episodes of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and an episode of The League. Still haven't seen last nights Secret Circle OR last weeks Supernatural. There's just way to much good tv these days! Last year ALL I watched was Vampire Diaries and Supernatural. Really, that was it. Made my life so much simpler. I don't know what happened  >.>

So review for:

Vampire Diaries )
We're having a Halloween party tonight and then I have tons of homework and I also must write more of my hols fic. It's getting there but needs a lot more time put into it. HAPPY FRIDAY EVERYONE!!!

Merlin, TSC, TVD and Once Upon a Time reviews!!

I still haven't watched Supernatural yet, but I've seen my other shows YAY!!! All my reviews are below and are (obviously) spoilery.

So first and foremost-
MERLIN!!!!! )
My next review goes to The Secret Circle because WOW!!!!! I was FINALLY impressed by this episode!
The Secret Circle )
And of course I can't forget about my beloved Vampire Diaries. This episode wasn't the best, but I wasn't dissapointed.
Vampire Diaries )
And finally (omg, I watch too much tv!!) the second episode of Once Upon a Time. This week was particularly wonderful as I got to watch it with my best friend whom I don't get to see often!
Once Upon a Time )
I'll be watching Supernatural and American Horror Story sometime soon (after Homework of course, cus that's all I live and breathe ><). I also want to download Grim and watch that- it looks really good!

I would wite about my Halloween weekend home, but this post is already far too long. I missed being on here far more than I probably should have, but oh well. Loves you flist.

Great Weekend!

I had such a marvelous weekend! Minus feeling panicky over homework again of course.

Friday night we played beer pong and my husband and I totally kicked ass. We won a total of ten games, seven of them in a row. We were a "dynasty +2" so that was pretty cool. I actually prolly played the best I ever had-got on fire and then made two more cups after yippee!

And of course Supernatural was Friday night!! I haven't actually done any reviews yet for the season so here's my thoughts to date:
Supernatural )
Saturday night I went and saw Paranormal Activity 3. It was really good! My spoilery thoughts are behind the cut.
Paranormal Activity 3 )

After we watched the movie we went out to a club for drinks with some friends. I hadn't had a really good vodka cranberry in SO long- made me so happy. Once we left the bar we were supposed to all meet up at ihop but our friends ditched us. It ended up working out perfectly though cus my hubby and I sat together at IHOP and talked about all kinds of stuff. He's not really a talker and I am (I was in debate in h/s and college if that tells you anything) so it was wonderful to have some good conversation with him.

Sunday I did a little homework and reached my 5k goal for my Merlin Holidays fic!! YAAAAYYYY!!! It's nowhere near being close to done, but I'm still happy I hit my goal. I also watched Once Upon a Time. My thoughts:

Once Upon a Time )

And that was my weekend! I hope you all had a good time as well!!

rambling and TVD/TSC review

This week has not been fun. As for the bad news this is all I have to say on the matter (since I complain to much as is):

1. I told my husband I was going to change my name and run away to Mexico. He said I wasn't allowed to do that and I agreed 'Mexico is too dangerous'. But I think ppl could find me if I go someplace like Canada. Don't they extradite Americans there? idek. Anyways, I just keep trying to remind myself it's just until May and then I can (hopefully) stop living paycheck to paycheck and having no time to myself. Perhaps I can even convince my husband to move to Europe.

2. In order to avoid a minor panic attack I had four Hornsby's (apple beer), got fantastically drunk and watched Vampire Diaries and The Secret Circle. It was actually a whole lot of fun and then I slept much better than I have in a while. I pretty much plan on doing the same thing tonight- I do have a beer pong championship to win. (is beer pong an American thing? what drinking games do you guys play?)

On a happier note...I have started my merlin hols fic like I stated earlier this week and I'm 100% in love with this fic. I'm only 2,500 words in- so not nearly as far as I'd like to be at this point- but the writing is coming easy and that makes me so insanely happy.

Also started a new Merlin Birthday Gifting community for slash fans. Pretty excited about the whole ordeal cus a.) I'm a nerd and I'm just excited to mod something. b.) I think it's the most awesome idea ever and we're going to have a lot of fun!

And now I'm going to try and review my shows that I was only kinda sober to watch:

Vampire Diaries )


Secret Circle )

And most importantly of all:

MERLIN IS TOMORROW!!!!!! *EEK*

Vampire Diaries Reaction Post

Oh you guys, I can't even begin to tell you the amount of happiness and freedom I feel this morning. The horrid week of massive amounts of homework is done and I survived!!!! I even managed to write two pieces of fanfic- both prompted by a team thing we're doing over at [livejournal.com profile] teamcanon. I can't post them until tomorrow, but I'm just SO excited about them. Two very odd pairings I NEVER would have thought to write on my own. It really just felt good to write again in general. My schedule has kept me so  busy that I haven't had the time.


I didn't get a chance to see The Secret Circle last night, but I did see the new Vampire Diaries. Here is my initial reaction:


ASDBO;IADNGLKJASDGKLJADGLKA


WHAT?!?!?!


AJA;AJ'A;KJFHLKAJWLDKGJA;;


NO WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHAT IS THIS SHOW DOING TO ME?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!


 
(i exploded from the awesomeness)

I didn't do a reaction post last night cus that was literaly as coherent a thought I was able to form on the matter ^^ Click on the cut for my more in depth thoughts.

I say it all the time and I know it gets old but....I FREAKING LOVE THIS SHOW!!!!!!

Merlin reaction post and FANG PORN!!

so first of all- True Blood isn't on right now, but after finding the icon I have I couldn't NOT set it to my default. Vampires and magic have always been my favorites things. I mean--I liked vampires BEFORE it was a cool thing. And man this icon- fang porn. NO ONE does fang porn like Alexander Skarsgard. *swoon* the fantasies those blue eyes and little fangs bring to mind are downright sinful. Doesn't help that True Blood fandom has some of the most graphic, kinky porn fic out there. AHHHH! I LOVE FANG PORN!!!! Anyone else as addicted as I am?

Ok, now that it's hotter in here....let me voice my thoughts on the latest Merlin episode:

Merlin 4.2 )

Been a good weekend in general. Got all my homework done and my free for fall stuff completed and ready to send off. Now I just have to focus on the two fics that have to be done by this weekend. Once I get through this week I can start to write my Merlin Hols fic-- YAY!!!
Got our prompts for teamcanon today. We did super great in the prompt race and it was a ton of fun GO TEAM CANON!!!!

Hope you guys all had an awesome week too!
