Cannot decide if I love or hate the new Glee character.

( Glee, you so weird )

( Raising Hope )

( Criminal Minds )

( Supernatural )

( Hawaii Five-0 )

( real life, keratoconus, bad eye days )

And yeah. That's my life in the past little while.

Watched the pilots of those two fairy tale TV shows today. Once Upon a Time...eh. I'll give it a few eps. Only thing I really have to say is that a handsome man cradling a baby in one arm and sword-fighting with the other is fricking hot, on a very id level. Like...all you could want in a man. Physical prowess and a nurturing instinct. Y/MFY?

Grimm was...so SPN. So very, very SPN. I liked it a lot. Liked the relationship between the cop and his partner. If this show gets a fandom, I expect there to be lots of slash with those two. Also maybe with the blutbad. He was cute. Though Dean would kill him because though he might not be killing right now, he used to. :P

They are both currently being tracked on my sidereel.com calendar.

My back thing, bug bite, Lyme disease or-whatever-it-is seems to be back and causing more trouble. I've just been so horribly exhausted lately, sleeping too long and having a really hard time waking up, and yesterday I had this really strange and disconcerting period of numbness and cold in my arms and legs. From what I read, Lyme's disease can take several rounds of antibiotics to knock out, so I've seen the doctor and gotten another prescription, plus for some Prenizone for the rash, which still hasn't gone away.

I'm just so tired lately. It sucks. I want to write. I have ideas, I had things I wanted to write for my castielfest prompts, but we had spotty internet for a few days and the next thing I knew, it was too late. (Someone pinch-hit for me and did a marvelous job, though.) Maybe I'll do the prompts later, if it's okay with my should-have-been recipient. I want to write, I want to participate and rec and talk and discuss, but I'm just utterly drained.

I've been watching a lot of TV, because that doesn't take much energy. Burn Notice is fantastic, in case you ever wondered. I also watched everything that's available of another USA show, Royal Pains, and now I understand why people like hospital shows--it's televised H/C! Definitely the fluffiest and least deep of the shows I've been watching, but it's like candy to me and I can't wait for the next episode to air so I can grab it. I've kept up with Psych, Leverage, and White Collar. I also have almost finished the first season of Mad Men, which is amazing, but also rather awful (the culture is so poisonous, I just don't understand how anyone could have lived like that). And I've started on Fringe, too. Walter and Peter are pretty damn adorable and Olivia is among the more heart-breakingly amazing women I've ever come across.

Of the new shows I've started watching, though, Burn Notice is definitely my favorite. Something has finally finally gotten my obtuse little gen-goggled heart to ship something--Michael/Fiona, man, I am all about Michael/Fiona. It helps that they are both fantastic, fun, well-rounded characters who are clearly perfect for each other, and their reasons for not being together (or being together, off and on) aren't annoying and stupid like most TV UST. (Hank/Jill on Royal Pains, I'm looking at you. You're BORING.)

I also ship the Winchester Impala and the Westen Charger. They would make sweet, sweet glossy black love and have beautiful and powerful car-babies, I have no doubt.

Okay, I have to drag my butt out of my bed and go work for a few hours. I want to make a rec post later, though. I've read some awesome stuff lately.
