Things I Should Really Do Today
It's been a slow start to my Sunday. As in "hmmm, it's two pm, I should probably get dressed, eat, wash my hair (not necessarily in that order)". So far today, I've finished watching all of Dexter and slept in. Not a lot to show for my day and it's already 2 in the afternoon.
Things I should do today: laundry, clean the apartment, clean the cat's litter, put away dishes, sweep, vacuum and mop the floors, write. Things I will likely get done today... tough to call that one.
Things I would like to do today if I had more time for poncing about online - wank extensively about Starbuck/Apollo, Starbuck/Anders love (although Sam has not been winning any points with me lately), and why Dualla annoys me (oh grow a pair, already woman!). That might lead into a meditation on the question of why the more earthy metaphors for courage and action all seem to involve testes - we live in a patriarchal society and don't let anyone convince you otherwise. And, yes, I can write for several hundred words about profanity and gender politics, should I choose (mostly not).
Following that would be a general repudiation and throw down on the 15-year-old fangirls and 15-year-old fangirl wannabes who have taken over online Veronica Mars fandom with their cult of St. Logan of the Woobification and their constant refrains of 'OMG Kristne Bell is such a bitch/clueless/doesn't understand her own character' - change out Kristen Bell for Rob Thomas and repeat as necessary.
Gah! It's hard to follow a fandom that has been so agressively taken over by the lowest common denominator. Also - once upon a time, there used to be decent VM fic out there. Has anyone seen where it went?
Unfortunately, I don't have time for these things, so I think I will settle for eating, dressing and clean hair. Then I will head out to the pub, order breakfast and sit and WRITE for a couple of hours. Then there shall be laundry.
Maybe.
Possibly.
If I don't get a better offer.
