Happy Capitalize on Love Day. Isn't it wonderful how we can cheapen even the most powerful of emotions by slapping on a big marketing campaign?

The boy and I have chosen not to partake of hearts and flowers this year. Partly because it just seems wrong to use love to turn a quick buck...and partly because I don't do that squishy shit.

The pink is starting to get on my nerves. But, on the upside, there is a new Criminal Minds tonight, so...today can't be all that bad, right?

There will be new fic soon. I can't really say how soon, or which fandom, but I'm at that point where I can't read anything without my mind wandering off to how I would do it, if I had had been the one writing it, so...soon. I'll be delaying as long as possible, no doubt.

I want to write more SGA, but too much time spent with drag queens is blocking my muse. Or corrupting it, can't really tell. Regardless, Rodney keeps coming off as a raging queen in everything I try to write, and I just won't subject the fandom to that. So no SGA for a while.

There's a plot goblin for "Born Under a Bad Sign" that just won't leave me alone, so you can probably expect to see a bit of Dean torture in here soon. ... That'll be one fic I won't be making the boy read, or he'd probably never let me touch him again... I'm avoiding everyone else's BUaBS fics for now, to avoid cross contamination. And to give me motivation to actually write the darned thing.

I also have a distinct urge to play with Reid, from CM, but not until I see how they tie things up from the last two episodes. If they give him enough onscreen angst I might decide to leave the poor boy alone.

Then there's the NCIS fic I was working on, but until they finally kill off Tony's new girl, I really don't want to write anymore of it. And she's gonna die. Soon, I hope. Then I can go back to putting the characters through an emotional meatgrinder and poking at the squishy bits.

Hey...still fifteen minutes left in the newest episode. Maybe they'll kill her off tonight...nah. Probably going to make us wait for the finale. But I'm still gonna go watch, and hope.
