Does anyone want a Dreamwidth code? I have lots to give away. I always post at DW and just crosspost to LJ, makes it pretty easy.
A Clockwork Angel arrived from Amazon yesterday. Am pretty excited about that one. I still haven't read Mockingjay yet, though. Can't decide which one I want to start first.
I guess Mad Men won the best drama Emmy on Sunday (I'm so out of touch I didn't even know the Emmys had come and gone) and people are starting to grumble because they've had a lock on it for the past 3 years. I would probably be grumbling too, except that I LOVE that show and things I love so rarely get that kind of love and attention. Though as Jade points out, I would have been OK with Dexter winning, particularly after the last doozy of a season.
TV Show Meme, Day 28 - First TV show obsession: Quantum Leap. It was the first show I ever got so into that I begged my mom to push my bedtime out one hour so I could watch it. I loved Sam Beckett and Al and the crazy adventures they'd go on. It's funny because I've never considered myself to be a fan of science fiction (growing up, I was like, that's a boy thing), yet if I think about it, even at the very start I was a big science fiction fan. I just didn't know what it was. In my mind, sci-fi had to do with aliens/spaceships (a la Star Trek/Star Wars, neither of which I liked) and weird scientists and scary Twilight Zone music. Yet shows like Quantum Leap (and fave movies like Back to the Future) were science fiction. I just didn't have my definitions right. But now I know better. I'm a sci-fi geek!
