The Omnivorous Geek

Ugh, I was all depressedy this weekend and I think I missed some awesome stuff. So if you are on my flist and you posted something interesting in the past three days or so, please to be linking and I will try to catch up. I am meaning fic, picspams, icon posts, etc., not so much episode reactions. I'm kinda burnt out on those, trying to preserve my own thoughts from now on. There are still a few I read every week, though, just because I think they're awesome.

...

LOL, okay, so here's an episode-reaction-author rec list, because I am a DORK.

I always read dotfic and smilla02 because I agree with them so hard on almost everything. (And also I love them.) And I almost always read musesfool, even though I disagree with her on some things, because her thoughts are always so interesting. And I always read tracy_loo_who, because her Castiel squee is pure and infectious, and I find her shipper's perspective on Dean & Castiel fascinating, since I see them so differently. And if animotus posts a picspam, you'd better believe I'm clickin' on THAT mofo. And of course, kroki_refur, whose Episode Reviews of DOOM I miss like burning. Whatever she posts, I read as a matter of principle.

I feel like I'm forgetting something important.

OH YES! erinrua. She usually posts her reviews a few days after the episode airs, because she takes time writing these things. They're beautiful. It's like having a favorite magazine column writer, the kind that always make you grin when you see her name in the byline because you know the article is going to be interesting and gorgeously written and thinky and supremely satisfying. And also full of fangirl squee, which is bonus bonus plus plus good.

Also I do read a few posts by people I consider personal friends, like moonshayde and superbadgirl and probably a few others I'm forgetting. I totally, totally suck at commenting lately though.

Hmm. That's still rather a long list. Maybe I should cut back? Nah. Those people are awesome.

Bah, I am depressed today. And it's my brother's graduation open house and we have family from two different states and friends from all over the area and I just want to go away, just be alone. And then I feel guilty for being antisocial and unhelpful, especially with all the work that needs done but I'm just. I don't want it.

I hate this feeling.

Oh, and incidentally? Second day on anti-depressants, and this crap really works. I am impressed.
