Could nifty people stop dying
Apr. 17th, 2018 08:17 amLook, I'm going to need celebs I don't like to start dying because waking up after my nap to read that Harry Anderson died broke my heart. I loved Night Court and loved him so, yeah. I kind of went back to bed and waited for the cat to either forgive me or just take pity on me. (She had her flea meds over the weekend and it always makes her mad at me.)
I woke up to the cat snoozing on me, so at least there's that.
In other news, I dyed the ends of my hair purple so my showers will now consist of me wondering why the hell the water is purple for the next week or so. Painted my nails yesterday, too, and this is one that is kind of meh if you're not a fan of dark polish, but the moment the light hits it you're blinded by the beauty. So Chills is one I'll have to break out again once it's swimming time. Speaking of swimming, I saw the pool guy cleaning the pool Sunday morning nice and early. Naturally there was a storm Sunday afternoon and it's been nice and cool ever since (this morning it was around 40 degrees) but it's good to know.
I tried scanning the remaining shelves into LT but I started at the top and I don't know if it's simply that some books scan easier than others (BSC was easy but AG is a pain in the arse if they're the older books) or if it's the search feature not really working or what, but I think it took about the same amount of time to scan in like... 40 books as it did to scan in more than 200. So once more I wait for the site to be less buggy.
I should say that I am kinda pms-y still so that's probably not helping me be less cranky about things not working exactly the way I want when I want. :P
Because my late case of the sads interrupted my evening answer, here's yesterday's BSC thing as well as today's:
14.) Least favorite parent:
Kristy's dad. :P It's amazing how quickly just idly wondering what it'd be like if he came back turned into "oh, jeez, not this plot again" which weirdly roped the movie into being kinda canon and kinda not and my brain just spun off into a five minute montage of things that ended with, "THIRTEEN?"
Circling back to the topic at hand, yeah. Patrick Thomas is a horrible father and even his possible redemption book is kinda "you still suck, dude" about it.
And Dawn's mom simply because after she was completely Flanderized (is that a word? It is now) it meant that any freakin' recap that involved her in any way would be painful to read. Also, you all are lying or total Richard Spiers if you say you've never accidentally left something in or on the fridge/freezer when you were on the phone or in the middle of something and your mind was elsewhere. Liars, all of you.
Wow, I get wordy about the weirdest things. Also, funnily enough, my least favorites (parent and kid) are both things I bothered to fic. Who knew?
15.) Favorite BSC fight:
Huh. I was going to say, "is there anyone who doesn't vote for Stacey's bad girl arc" and then I remembered fight #1 which brought us Dawn and now I'm torn. Can I say both? The original fight set up the reoccurring theme of MA being super passive aggressive when ticked off and brought us Dawn, but it also showed us that Dawn wasn't here for just being a pawn between Kristy and MA. It was written early enough that we hadn't devolved yet, which is nice, and realistic in that the smallest things snowball.
Stacey's defection was perfection in the timing. About the time you'd start to wonder what would happen if one of the members wanted more from life that couldn't be scheduled easily (like Claud's art), bam! Stacey gets popular and things spiral. Sure, yes, the arc itself is kinda ridiculous (this is one of those cases where being stuck at 13 didn't help) but it starts off with a bang and yes, I was totally here for it at the time. Still am when I'm in my drama loving moments.
