This is me asking for your attention...

[beelikej]

Man, the internetz is quiet today. Anybody else as bored as I am?
To entertain you (and pimp my blogs;) here are some linkies to my other corners. Go forth and report back to me when you're done, pretty please. I love comments, good, bad or ugly.

I treated myself to DVD's and books today: check out the goodies! (who wants to come over for a Hornblower marathon? I already found fanfic *g*)

Have you seen my finished Livingroomproject? (Is it me or is the room suddenly a lot bigger?)

The Goldstar icon and banner project is now available with commentary (or go to the pretty here if you only want to grab some icons;)

If I ever have to disappear, I'll probably hide in My GreatestJournal

I made an archive of my Livejournal on my harddisk. You can do that too!

I've finally watched Dr. Who eppie 'Blink'. Now I'm in love all over again.
"People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually, from a non-linear non-subjective view point, it's more like a big ball of wibley-wobbley ... timey-wimey ... stuff." *huggles Doctor*

Comments

hey - and yes, i am utterly bored to death.

comments:

1. your room is cool.

2. doctor who rocks.

3. hornblower! hahahahahahah oh yeah baby. is there hornblower slash? is there, is there? *jumps up and down*

4. if you're into the sexiest robin hood ever, come visit me at community.livejournal.com/wolfshead for some hot merry men and woodland sex. ;)

[beelikej.livejournal.com]

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm almost longing to go back to work next week. At least I'll know what to do during the day;)

1. Thank you

2. Yes he does. Number Ten is awesome. I still have to check out Nine, I've heard good things about him and Tanni was nice enough to lend me some eppies on DVD. I think I might do a marathon this weekend;)

3. I've never seen a complete episode, but those men in uniform: wrraahwr *paws* I just couldn't resist the box-set:) I've found one fansite with fiction. I haven't read any yet, so I've got no idea if it's any good, but I will surely check it out as soon as I've watched the DVD's: Horny! Horny!

4. That was a gorgeous Robin Hood, but my brain is too busy with Harry Potter porn fanfic at the moment. And CSI of course *g*. But when those fandoms happen to implode for being too obscene, I might take a trip into the woods;)

[wildecountry.livejournal.com]

LOL.

HP is better now that they're growing up a bit. i just can't seem to get my head around slashing characters who are the same age as my own children.

horatio just has to be slashed with archie. 'tis the only way to go - but you really haven't lived until you've read robin of sherwood/will scarlet (that is to say, michael praed/ray winstone)

just my opinion.

p.s. nick/greg still rule. :)

[beelikej.livejournal.com]

I know what you mean. I don't need fanon for Harry himself, the books cover his feelings and adventures to my satisfaction. I mostly read Remus/Sirius adult-fanfiction and even in their Marauder-era stories, my favorite age to read is late teens.

It's tempting to try another fandom, but I've only just discovered HP-fanfic, so that's why I feel there is still a lot of exploring to do in that massive archive - while it's still available...

Yes they do:) I will always be faithful to my first OTP. (Well, I've read Buffy/Angel/Spike in all combo's when I started my web-life - but that's canon, really;)

[wildecountry.livejournal.com]

very cool. of course, there's always doctor "ten-inch" who/captain jack if you get bored with HP. *snick*

[tanisafan.livejournal.com]

Hee, I have the same edition of the first Floortje Zwigtman book (was indecisive because there were two different covers available, but ultimately decided on the one that had the pretty boy, of course!)

Hornblower! Me, me, pick me! *jumps up and down, waving her arms not at all being pathetic*
I have the same boxset, only mine has only 4 episodes. I had to buy the last three episodes separately. And which is this fanfic you speak of? Does it feature Mr. Kennedy? (Because aw, Jamie Bamber is so cute and young there! *pets*)

I'm so setting up an extra online home at GL next week. Hmm, icon orgy.
And I'm SO happy with the Goldstar project, hee! Best motivational technique ever. Why did none of my professors know this? ;) *hugs you tight*

So, what will you do now that the living room project is finished? :D

[beelikej.livejournal.com]

I haven't seen other covers, maybe the other was a paperback? I prefer hardcovers anyway - heh, I said hard.

You are hereby invited for an official Hornblower-marathon:) You might have to teach me about that series though, because I don't know any of the men you speak of. I have only seen snippets, but I love Ioan:) While I was researching, I found a link to fanfic, but I won't go there until I've seen at least a couple of eppies.
Four episodes? My boxset has 6 DVD's, sounds like a lot more. (Or maybe it's five, I'm not at home right now, so can't check, but it's still way more than yours:-p)

OMG orgy, YES! *hugs back*

Well, I had planned to continue with the CSI-hairguides, in fact I got very distracted started collecting Greg's season 2 haircuts yesterday. But now that I don't have a computer, I'm gonna have to find something to do in the real world, hrmpf.

[tanisafan.livejournal.com]

Oooo, yay! I especially loved the episodes 4-7, which have the Four Lovely Men. Mmm. And also, naked Ioan getting hosed down in front of everyone. Good times.

I just saved the fic in case I decide to call it an early night, hee ;)! And yup, my bx looks the same but only has DVDs. It's from a more primitive era ;).

Whatever will you do in this 'real world'? :| (Ooo, you could read the prologue you the trilogy you weren't gonna read *evilgrin*.)

[beelikej.livejournal.com]

You evil, evil woman. That prologue will stay wrapped until the end of next year.

[tanisafan.livejournal.com]

Hee, clearly you have more self-discipline than I do. Oo and now that I have time, I can finally read the first book! Wheeee!

And damn, looking at my last comment, my keyboard was acting up :|. I meant that my box has 4 DVDs *eyeroll*.

[beelikej.livejournal.com]

So I finally found time to count the contents of my box: it has indeed 6 DVD's. FYI:

1. The Even Change

2. The Examination for Lieutenant (which has Robert Lindsay on the cover. He's a guilty pleasure of mine. (He is so adorkable in My Family)

3. The Dutchess and The Devil

4. Frogs and Lobsters

5. The Adventure Continues 2(?) with 'Mutiny' and 'Retribution'

6. The Aventure Continues 3 with 'Loyalty' and 'Duty'.

Want to set a date for the marathon?

Did you start reading yet? I'm very nervous curious to hear what you think of it.

[tanisafan.livejournal.com]

Ah yes, my box has the first four, and I have 5 and 6 on two separate DVDs.
And sure! As long as it's not the weekend of The Move (Sept. 8-9), I should be fine ;). The thesis presentation tends to be on a weekday, I can't imagine that they'll be bothered to do it on a Saturday, hehe.

I haven't, but I'm starting as soon as I finish reading my Neil Gaiman book, which should be tonight or tomorrow. I'll be sure to let you know my thoughts on it in excruciating detail ;).
(My mom finished DH today. There was sooo much fangirling at dinner, up to the point where my dad sighed, picked up his plate and went to the living room 'because the tv chatters less'. Heh.)

[kennedy-unknown.livejournal.com]

Hey, that LJArchive is great! Thanks for pointing it out.

This LJ stuff is weirding me out, but I am strangely optimistic. For once. Bizarre, I know.

[beelikej.livejournal.com]

Hey, you're welcome. I figured it was a useful tool in these times of panic;)

I love your icon. I came across my collection of The Five-books when I was redecorating the livingroom. Those brought back happy memories: they were so cool:)

[tanisafan.livejournal.com]

The LJ thing is what (maybe) killed beelikej's computer, dude. Get away from it, get away now! *flail*

*uninstalls it in a hurry*

[beelikej.livejournal.com]

To be fair: I don't think it was the LJ-archive, but that Net-framework provided by Windows. And I'm not even sure that is it, it's more likely just my computer being an ass. Because if you have a 'proper' Windows like I obviously have, because what other option is there that official plug-in definitely shouldn't be causing problems. Ahem.

[tanisafan.livejournal.com]

Ah, okay. I did 'uninstall' anyway, just to be safe ;).
Using the Internet at my dad's house is sucky enough already (seriously, it blocks *all* forms of dl'ing, argh), don't want to take any more risks!

[sillie]

Hey, your room looks awesome. I really like the colored stripes. :D

*goes to add you on GJ*

[beelikej.livejournal.com]

Thank you:-) Heh, the stripes are not as straight as I would have liked them to be, but the colours are perfect and my room is so much cooler now; much more like me *g*

As soon as I have fulltime access to web again, I want to dress up GJ a little more...
