1. Grinned like a idiot to find this review of Merlin on NBC in my copy of EW:

NBC's new medieval adventure poses a question that has no doubt been puzzling Athurian scholars for centuries: What if Merlin, the bearded old wizard, was actually way hot? This rollicking U.K. import is more O.C. than Camelot, reimagining its hero (Colin Morgan) as a young undercover warlock working as a manservant for the cocky Prince Arthur (Bradley James). Cheesy? Sure. But there's enough sword-clanging action- not to mention homoerotic tension- to keep viewers happily entertained for a spell. Grade: B+

Bwahaha! Also, is Merlin really that much like the O.C.? Eeeh, I dunno, I don't think it's that soapy. Still yay, one more week! \o/


2. Kate Hewlett (*waves at icon*) has some songs up on ReverbNation, and they're not bad. She sounds...a lot like her, if that makes sense. Worth a listen! The first song is really growing on me.

Mostly though, it made me think of a incredibly weird but shiny SGA RPF AU fic where Kate, Jamie Ray Newman (she sings too and I have some nice covers by her from god knows which fangirl) and Rachel Luttrell were in an awesome mellow jazzy indie girl band together. And maybe the Flan could be their roadie who plays guitar sometimes because he has nothing better to do. I bet the Flan always wanted to be a roadie. THANKS, BRAIN.


3. I'm finally moving this weekend! It's a great apartment in a great location, but it's been a bit of a...challenging experience all told. My first experience finding an apartment in New York was surprisingly painless. This experience has been more like what painless would be if we lived in OPPOSITE LAND where painless means SUCH A SOUL-KILLING PAIN IN MY ASS THERE IS NOT ENOUGH CAPSLOCK IN THE WORLD TO EXPRESS IT. Basically, to detail the various trials, tribulations and sheer WTFery of actually getting this place and moving in would require its own post that would probably reach whining critical mass.

SO. Focusing on the positive instead and only saying yay for my new cute apartment and I can't wait to get settled. \o/
