fangirl_says | Reading

It's no meeting week at work, which is the best week! And then I'm on PTO next week. I carefully portioned out my to-do list so that I have one main thing to do every day (on top of whatever comes up each day) and it's so satisfying to mostly just cross things off it and not have to go to any meetings (which always add things to my list).

Yesterday, it was so quiet that I was able to read a whole book! Just sitting at my desk and answering email occasionally! So, Wednesday reading!

What I've just finished
Stone and Sky by Ben Aaronovitch, the very latest Rivers of London book. And when I say, "very latest" I mean it was released yesterday. I enjoyed it! ( spoilers )

What I'm reading next
Idk, I'll keep opening books in my library until I find one that holds my interest, I guess.

Character/Pairing: Daniel Jackson
Rating: G

Happy Daniel Jackson's 60th birthday, everyone! July 8th, 1965 our intrepid, stalwart, and dashing archaeologist was born to travel the stars and find a commonality in spirit and hope in all. Whilst living the greatest love story of all time with his retired General hubby... *g*

I'd like to think he is still attached to the Stargate program in some capacity, perhaps the SGC is now based out of Atlantis, and maybe not completely under US control anymore (they learned their lessons with Kinsey, no kings/goa'ulds/yadda), somewhere on Earth, or out amongst the stars...

Anyone else feeling a little... dated? >.<

I know I had some stuff I wanted to post about but now I can't remember what it was. Oh well.

I finally watched Captain America: Brave New World and it was fine. ( spoilers )

We start the season with Jack O'Neill inside the Daniel Jackson...*bg* where he tinkers with tech, learns all the things, and is Generally ~~almost~~ a wry spark. Back in his body, and expressing his daddyness, Jack finds himself to be The Man™, with Daniel as his trusty advisor, confidant and side~~piece~~ kick. As is the way of things, Daniel quickly goes missing offworld, gets kidnapped a few times onworld, on a spaceship, and online... before dying once ~~once?~~ more before the Ancients dump his nakedness right under Jack's nose, as it were. The season ends with some superfluous fishing, as Jack has already (insert your own jokes about bottom fishing, chumming and fingerlings, etc... why am I doing all the work? *g*)

An icon per episode of Season 8 that both characters were in plus some extras... <3

I am planning to do another set for their appearances together in seasons 6, 9 & 10, Continuum, as well as SGA and SGU, I just need to find screencaps for the later two, if those still exists online.

These are made in NZ so only of interest to the tiny no. of Kiwis using the comm, I'm sure.

I tried Quality Bakers Muffin Splits - pre-sliced English muffins, advertised as GF and sourdough. The flours are Tapioca Starch, Flour (Rice, Soy), Maize Starch. They contain egg white powder so aren't vegan.

alt

Pros: nicely crisp crust - they toast well and taste okay.
Cons: a little on the thin side, and although said to contain sourdough, I couldn't taste any.

Overall: acceptable but a bit unexciting. I still prefer bagels. :)

I want to start posting here more often again! So a meme on writing - feel free to steal it if you want to do it too!

🍓 How did you get into writing fanfiction?

I was one of those kids who had a feral childhood back in the nineties. My mother would work evenings and I'd be left alone to watch TV and put myself to bed, so I remember watching The X-Files from the time that I was like, 8? So once we got our first computer I looked it up, found fanfiction, and read it vicariously. After that came Lord of the Rings, which was the first fandom I wrote in.

( More here! )

Last night I watched a cute movie on Netflix called Nonnas about that restaurant on Staten Island that hires grandmas as chefs. Lorraine Bracco, Brenda Vaccaro, Talia Shire, and Susan Sarandon play the nonnas, and Vince Vaughn plays the guy opening the restaurant. It's kind of a nice mellow detox from The Bear in terms of a bunch of Italian-Americans yelling at each other in a restaurant kitchen. *g* Plus a really horrifying rendition of capuzelle, which is a roasted (or baked?) sheep's head, which is one of those dishes I try to forget knowing about. Anyway, the restaurant still exists, and now it has grandmas from all different backgrounds who cook there (a review of the real restaurant).

Today was my Monday, and tomorrow is my Friday at work. I could get used to a 2 day work week!
