Underground Wanderer

( cut for spoilery comments about a certain character/actor on CSI )

****

Despite the complete and utter trashing of my Scrubs on GH, (something I'll probably rant about someday), I still love Jason Thompson and Kimberly McCullough and I'm still holding out hope that Patrick and Robin will get back together on the show soon. Also, everything I ever read/see about JT just makes me adore him more. *sappy sigh*

****

And, again, I think it's sad that the only real couple I can root for at the moment, (because of actors leaving and/or characters breaking up), is Hodgins/Angela on Bones, and it's not even one of the shows I'm really fanatic about. I don't necessarily need to have a favorite couple, in order to like a show, but I will admit that I'm a sucker for great characters and relationships. I get involved with fandoms, (fic, etc.), because of characters I end up shipping. That doesn't mean I don't love wonderful familial relationships or friendships on my shows as well, (the Team friendship on Stargate Atlantis, for example), but if the romance or UST is good and fun to watch, I get hooked pretty quickly on it. I still ship Doctor/Rose, Josh/Donna, Sydney/Vaughn, etc., but these aren't relationships I can see during my current TV viewing practices, and sometimes that's a little sad to me.

I'm sure there's a whole big essay about this topic in me somewhere, but I'll stop here for now.

....really random/WTH/okay, that's a bit strange type of thoughts I've had today....

*It's bordering on ridiculous how adorable I find Jason Thompson and his constant "biological clock is ticking" comments about kids. That man really wants to get married and have children and do the whole "white picket fence" thing. It's all kinds of cute.

*Officially watched the first episode/part of the Dr. Who show/series. *hee* Oh, I love the BBC backlot sets and the 1960s hairdos and the slightly off dialogue. Love Ian and Barbara, and I've only seen a little bit of them so far. It's nice to see that many of the quirks that the 9th and 10th Doctor have are present in the first Doctor too. *geeky bliss*

*It's nice when you hear from a friend that, when she needs cheering up, you are one of the first people she thinks of to call, because of your optimistic slant on things in general. That was an incredible compliment and I'm glad that I can help in any small way.

*Poor Mom and her stressful job this week. Poor ckdutchess and her new shift at work this week. *hugs all around*

*Nat will be here in one week! *happy squee*

*I don't think this can be said enough, but I love the character of Mr. Thornton in North and South. Catching up on my reading and I can't get over how great he is. :)

*Voted for Joey tonight on the ABC website. Really, really want him to win. Cuz, you know, it's Joey!!

*I know I've been focused on the Who stuff lately, but I haven't forgotten my other shows and I'll be talking about SGA and others in the next couple of weeks. Never really got to comment on the latter part of the third season for SGA and I still want to do that, (especially before the 4th season starts this summer).

*Pirates! Piratey goodness starts this week! *squee* (And the third movie will be awesome. Cuz I said so, dammit!!)

Happy Valentine's Day!!

I spent the day working on job search stuff and then having dinner with my parents. Not very romantic for my parents, but it was still nice. We had steak and some Australian wine and my mom got some lovely presents. :)

I have a job interview this Friday for a part-time position at a Hallmark store. Nothing glamorous, but it'll be extra money that I can earn and save for when I do get a full-time job somewhere else. *crossing fingers*

One of the nice things about being back home is being able to watch the soaps with my mom. It's more fun that way. :) And I've become completely obsessed with Jason Thompson, (he plays Patrick Drake on General Hospital), and it's a little scary. *sigh* He's just so good looking and apparently very kind and sweet in real life and watching the Fan February clips, where he switches jobs with a first-grade teacher for a day, is making my ovaries ache. Because, wow, he's really good with kids and he got teary-eyed when he had to leave the kids and...oh. I *heart* him so much. And there is no one to gush about him with in my life. (Hmmm, probably should post on the Scrubs board. That might help).

*wibble*

Hope you all had a lovely day. :)
