massive entry is massive!

So Aidan's gone as of Friday afternoon (Mary's staying for three weeks, yay!). We went to the beach, to the springs, played Ultimate Frisbee, had a party, and played possibly illegal amounts of board and card games. I socialized for what ended up being almost five days. Still utterly exhausted and anti-social. I slept badly Friday night, woke up three times or so.

Yesterday night I didn't get enough sleep either, for other reasons. Mostly involving The Roach Saga. (I HATE roaches, guys. SO MUCH.) About five in the morning today a roach took it into it's head to be as obnoxious to Mary as possible, including running across her face. *shudder* Then it got onto my bed, and things spiraled out of control from there until Mary was sleeping on the couch in the living room and Katherine and I had the lights on and were watching Primeval (the last four episodes of Season 3) and White Collar's first episode on my bed, while encouraging our dog to kill any roaches she found in our room. So yeah. I got... six hours of sleep last night? I've been alternating between hyper and looking drugged all day. Anyway, that all led to the Great Roach Hunt, wherein Kat and Mary and I spent large portions of today clearing out my room. Really thoroughly.

Come on down to metatardis!
Where we are all definitely madmen in boxes.

It's going to be pretty fabulous, guys. There have already been some great meta-pieces, and I know there'll be more. You should drop by! 

Vid recs! I have four.

Your Ghost by charmax is a devastating and beautiful Winchester family epic. The lyrics are utterly perfect, the song is beautiful with the right melancholy to it, and the story told is wonderful. Three generations of Campbells/Winchesters, with all their utter tragedy!

Never Gonna Leave Me by lee_fragilidad is a Syfy Alice vid, Alice/Hatter, and it's just the right mix of upbeat running/fighting and wishful glances. The cutting is sharp and the whole thing is really well-constructed.

Bad Romance by such_heights may have me convinced that I need to finish watching S2 of Merlin. (I'm.. .not sure why I haven't, actually.) But I definitely have to watch the Morgause episodes, and this vid is why. Gwen/Morgana/Morgause love triangle! WANT.

Lullaby For A Stormy Night by such_heights is the tiny!Amy and Eleven vid we all knew we wanted. So adorable, omg. ♥

On TV-watching fronts! White Collar 2x01 was quite lovely. Neal and Peter were in fine bickering form, Mozzie played a great role. I only wish there had been more (MUCH MORE) of El and Diana, and that that one Scare hadn't happened at the end.I swear, White Collar, if Diana the awesome gorgeous Marsha Thomason played lesbian is evil, I'm quitting you. *glares*

Primeval is pretty wonderful - I wish it was more racially diverse, but they are fairly decent on delivering Awesome Ladies Being Awesome and there is no shortage of handsome men and I am shallow. also SARAH PAGE, who doesn't have to be able to shoot things to be wicked awesome. <333 (also STOP DYING, PEOPLE. STEPHEEEEEN. NICK. D: CLAUDIA! though we did get Jenny in return. *still sad*)

Femgenficathon it is! this needs to be DONE. I need to move on! wait what why am I writing Claudia Brown/Jenny Lewis fic all of a sudden. *eyes* but I wanted to write Rosalie fic? except... I guess that's not happening.

I am SO sorry about the roaches! Ew, ugh! D: D: D: I'm having a minor skeeve-out over their presence at my current place of work (despite the fact that the exterminator was JUST IN). Everyone else shrugs and accepts this as par for the course. I am NOT. USED. to roaches. I got one every 4-6 months or so in my apartment in LA, informed management of same, had exterminator come, was safe for another season. We had some in the dorm freshman year of college; repeated shouting at facilities got an exterminator in, problem solved all year. That's the full extent of my experience with the nasty ugly things, and I do not like having them around as 'normal'. Ewwwwwww. I grew up with ants and flies as the household pests. And pantry moths. All of which are frustrating, difficult to get rid of completely, and not pleasant, but none of which are NEARLY so gross.

I got... six hours of sleep last night?
Wait, you find this abnormal? That's a good night for me.

ROACHES ARE THE SPAWN OF EVIL. I can tell you this from close experience.

sleep and I have a very complex relationship. Mostly I have to get a LOT, or I am no good. Six hours can work, but not after a week like this one. Plus, if I don't get around eight hours of sleep I head into a state of wired energy that can be really useful and get lots of things done, but always results in crashing REALLY badly afterwards. basically there are all sorts of things going into it. sleep and I don't really get along. *sigh*

ARGH, ROACHES. HOW I HATE THEM.

And I totally need to watch that Merlin vid, like, yesterday.
