Worked on Travis's wedding present mostly, and am still trying to find some long series to replace MI-5/Spooks now that I'm done with it. (Call the Midwife is just for watching with Fizzy, and with the time zone difference and me trying to reset my sleep schedule those watchings might be few and far between, and I think there are only six episodes at the moment anyway.) I want to watch Next Gen but that means getting past embarrassment squick heavy episodes like "The Naked Now" and I haven't been able to manage that. There's always Stargate: Atlantis but then I'd get sucked into the fandom (that I'd been back into when Fizzy got me into Supernatural, and then I got into Sherlock), and I don't want to leave Sherlock as my primary fandom yet because my daydream fic has been my primary anti-despair the past several months.
I've got the two Star Trek Reboot movie novelizations downloaded through Audible, but the first one is also hard to get through because it's...well, as irritating as the first movie, but I want to have the novelization of the first movie listened to before moving onto the second, and reviews of both audiobooks said that reading/listening to the books made the movie easier to understand (which doesn't bode well for the movie, but this is the first time I've ever watched a Star Trek movie for something other than its Trek-ness--I'm going to be watching it for Benedict Cumberbatch and in spite of Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto and Karl Urban, and it's not like the Reboot movies are real Trek anyway. It's Teeny Bopper Trek or Shallow Pretty Actors Trek or JJ Abrams Has Committed Sci-Fi Sacrilege That's Almost As Bad As The Starship Troopers Movie Trek...anyway).
I'm going to stop rambling and go to bed now. I wish I could just stay asleep until life (the universe, everything) gets better. Wake me up when the world isn't ruled by money and I can actually "follow my bliss."
