    What Movie are you Currently Watching?

    After an exhausting week (with a day of insanity still to go), rewatched "The Muppets" tonight. Needed some silliness. Tomorrow night, going to see either "Logan" or "Get Out," depending on my mood.

    Kermie's Girl (ushy-gushy fanfic)

    Catching back up after a loooong absence! Fleet coming to Piggy's summons, and the dialogue between them, reminds me I will never write romantic scenes this well. Dang, Ru.

    The last TV show you watched was...

    The Expanse. Scifi & politics, well mixed.

    What Book Are You Currently Reading?

    Reading 3rd book in Scott Lynch's Gentleman ******** series, The Republic of Thieves. The adventures of Locke Lamora and Jean Tannen are utterly wonderful. I can't stress enough how well these are written, and how engaging and excellently flawed the characters are.

    Video: "The Muppets" Official ABC Trailer

    HOLY JIBBERS CRABST, Y'ALL. I am posting from my PHONE because I am SO EXCITED about this series! It looks clever, meta, and endearing...everything I love. I dearly wish I was writing for it!

    Kermie's Girl (ushy-gushy fanfic)

    Wow... This went places I was NOT at all expecting. VERY glad that Piggy's new(er) friends are smarter than the average singer/dancers (ok, smarter than the ones I was privileged to know. ahem), and that Seymour's and Fleet's machinations are soon to have magnifying glasses thrust upon them...

    Kermie's Girl (ushy-gushy fanfic)

    Awwwww! What a sweet, subtly painted chapter. At the risk of sounding ushy-gushy, there is so much TRUTH about what love is and means in this that I was nodding and smiling away, while reading it in a crowded bookstore. (Unlike our Dashing Duo, I CAN afford to let any observers draw whatever...

    Kermie's Girl (ushy-gushy fanfic)

    Ha! I can easily imagine the whole confrontation: Bobo and Moishe arguing, Piggy for once being drowned out, the workers staring raptly...hilarious! Hoping Creepazoid won't have much chance to elbow in to our star lady's personal space again with these two growling at all and sundry... Nice tip...

    Kermie's Girl (ushy-gushy fanfic)

    Hooooboy... Yeahyeah, double-posting shmakety blah blah. I have MONTHS of catching up here! So I'll post where and when I can. None a you can stop me! :crazy: LOVE the PIG FU! I am wondering if the hapless fanboys represent anyone Our Author knows personally, but really, given the repellant...

    Kermie's Girl (ushy-gushy fanfic)

    So, I'm finally at least attempting to catch up a bit... You know I'm fascinated with the whole Fleet-Piggy thing. I love these chunks of history you keep dropping in! This "origin story" is lovelier (and makes more sense) than most superheroes'. :) I love the idea of Fleet being so enamored...

    Kermie's Girl (ushy-gushy fanfic)

    --------- :news:NEWS FLASH! The reader has READ and is ALL CAUGHT UP! Wow. Well, there's far too much here for me to be uber-detailed, but some specific things stand out to me. Fleet is back as Piggy's champion, making up (at least in our view) for his opportunistic photo nabbing...

    Kermie's Girl (ushy-gushy fanfic)

    ---------- Holy cow. I can see I've missed a lot! Have copied the last SEVERAL chapters to my laptop while on a friend's wifi, to take home and peruse over the next few days! Glad the saga continues. :) --------------

    A Nest Divided: A Sam the Eagle Story

    ------------ That is EXACTLY how I'd expect Gonzo to play Horse. You could've gone even MORE nutjob and it would have rang true... Ants have teaching colleges? For what? How to snub grasshoppers? Very, very funny entry. I know you're going through some rough stuff just now but I hope you'll...

    Kermie's Girl (ushy-gushy fanfic)

    -------------- Feedback: Ch. 151 (wow! It just struck me again how EPIC this story is...) Hmm. Sounds like the bar may be offering Rowlf a different sort of full-time gig. I know he'd never leave the Muppet troupe, but with all the nonsense going on, I could actually see him considering it...

    The Doctor Who Thread

    ------------ As to Moffat: "Don't you think he looks tired?" Capaldi is a fine actor. He impressed the Dalek out of me in Torchwood: Children of Earth with a truly squirm-worthy antihero role. I think he will take the series in a good direction -- PROVIDED good scripts and a new Companion...

    Questions about anything

    Many of the things we like are chemically based reactions. Neurotransmitters wired for endorphins for certain tastes/scents/textures/colors/sounds. ANYTHING love-related falls in this category. --------

    The “What did you do today?” thread

    ----------- Found pic research for a new drawing. Received a kiss gladly. Completed making my Second Life avatar. (That's a LOT of work, and I'm not even browsing the grid yet!) Slept in. Grocery shopped. Found Chocowine for $2 a bottle at Trader Joe's! Aaaaand...came to see how my meeps on MC...

    Dealing with depression and anxiety

    --------- When I'm having a crappy day and say so on Twitter, a text message pops up on my phone minutes later from dis mook. *hugs* You rock, Charlie. Yeah, life pretty much sucks. We all have to figure out how to make it suck less personally. But seeing you pop up asking if I'm doing ok...
