Important Gilmore Girls PSA:

Tonight's Gilmore Girls episode is 62 minutes long.

(Seriously, they should promote that info more! That's two whole minutes of finale that I wouldn't have taped - well, two minutes I wouldn't have taped if I wasn't crazy anal and scared of networks and always tape five minutes past a show's supposed end time - that would have meant me screaming at the TV!)

Young Riders is killing my brain. I watched this show when I was 12, so you can imagine how it is through the eyes of a 29-year-old. The scarily intimate relationship between The Kid and his horse, the fact that Teaspoon is still enjoyable to this day, the scary pauses and camera work, the really, really funny gunfights where a dude gets shot and falls in the same spot over and over.

Watching, there's a reason I always like Jimmy better than The Kid. He had a personality. It was warped and screwy, but he had one. The Kid is just a WEE too perfect (and his eyebrows scare me). Then again, I wanted to BE Lou, because she had glasses and short hair (just like me!) and rode horses and hung with the boys.

Buck and Ike are just...huh. Did NOT see the homoeroticism back in the day, but boy is it pinging me now. Except Buck is just a wee too het at times.

Admittedly, back then I was iffy on Cody, whereas now I love him. I think it's the fact that yes, it's Stephen Baldwin, and he's batshit insane in this series, but he's the one that I knew growing up. That kid was always around.

Also, waking up at 3:17 in the morning because an ovary makes itself known is NOT fun. Neither is waking up at 4:00 because food consumed 10 hours before suddenly decides it doesn't like you. And then waking back up at 5:30 for the same reason.

I just had a completely "DUH! Moron!" epiphany.

The reason original fic doesn't want to get written? Is because I was trying to make it dark and angsty in parts. Setting up the story? Kind of heavy. I have to rethink the whole thing, because in retrospect, I don't do dark and angsty. I'm comedic. I prefer comedic and light. It's when the writing flows it's best. So just go with my normal style, embrace it, and adjust the story to that instead of trying to change my style.

Why did it take me a YEAR to figure that out?

Dear American Idol, why I love you and yet hate you.

In trying to avoid my boss who is driving me batshit insane this afternoon with avoidance of doing her work (seriously, does she think the proposal will write itself?) and refusing to let anyone help her (including the three people that offered)...

(Warning, huge picture.)

( Did NASCAR.com just do what I think they did? )

Also, I have the most hideous picture of Jimmie in shorts. It's scary. Biffle is in the picture as well, looking all cute and Biffley, but Jimmie is wearing shorts and flip flops and it scares me.

Of course I'll be good and only post it in the morning, when there's no chance of having to sleep any time soon, because the nightmares...oh, the nightmares.
