- My littlest brother is 20 this weekend. 20. When the hell did that happen? Anyways, I've explained that he can't actually have a present till this inheritance money I'm waiting for comes through which clearly makes me feel like a shitbag, but hey, that's just me, I do guilt incredibly well. I'll make him a nice big cake though and generally spoil him. Same as any other weekend then =)

- I watched the first episode of Being Human but only the first one so far. I don't know. Really. I just don't know. I think maybe if I'd not seen that awesome pilot I wouldn't feel quite so unsure. I need to watch the second episode, don't I?

- I love being completely spoiler-free for Supernatural as it's great watching an episode without having a clue what's going to happen and also, you avoid all the fandom wank that way too - but I only found out by accident this morning that it's on hiatus for a month after this weeks episode. Nuh. NUH. Actually dreamt about Jared last night. Wish it had been more interesting. But it wasn't.

- I know I've focused a ridiculous amount lot on making icons and building up [livejournal.com profile] paper_packages lately and I'm sorry if I've been neglectful in other areas. Bear with me okay - I'm enjoying it and I'm trying to build up the community and... *shrugs* You know you can all just poke me whenever though if I'm being slack or you want anything, okay?

- Talking of icons... I'm fairly happy so far with my latest batch of text and stock icons, but I'm finidng it difficult coming up with the smut for the Merlin ones as I'm preoccupied with the pretty... obviously if I'm losing the smut factor I need help!

- That's all =)

*hugs all*

I was undecided after the first episode of Being Human, but I was really impressed with the second. Probably because it focused on George, who was absolutely brilliant in it. And the others are growing on me. So yeah, have a look -- would love to hear what you think.

*hugs*

I will - I'll most likely watch it tomorrow and I'm sure it'll grow on me as it wasn't nearly as bad as I'd thought it might be - I'm just still too dazzled by that amazing pilot =)

Just added a bit about icons too *points above* and need smut-help immediately! *lol*

Hahahaha! Canon-smut's not enough? ("Faster, Arthur" and "how's your knee walking?")

I've been writing smut all day please don't hate me I'm writing RPS and I'm disgusted with myself but it's not my fault Bradley and Colin are so irresistible so I might be tapped out, but what in particular are you looking for?

[identity profile] the-muppet.livejournal.com 2009-02-05 10:09 am (UTC)(link)
You're right, I know that, I think it's inner inspiration I need - I mean all the material is right there isn't it - it's almost too easy! I just need to snap myself out of the pretty icons I'm making of them and dive back into the innuendo-laden, smut-filled ones... somehow =)

[identity profile] lilithilien.livejournal.com 2009-02-05 10:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Pretty icons are good too! Nothing wrong with the pretty!

[identity profile] the-muppet.livejournal.com 2009-02-05 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Well I've done a bunch - then deleted half of them for being utterly crap - and maybe, just maybe, found a little smut to finish with =) Will give up now as my eyes hurt and hopefully finish tomorrow ready to post =)

*hugs*

I KNOW! WTF? *sighs* It's only been back on for 5 frickin minutes, dammit =(

And the pretty is good. Pretty good!

The icons?

I know what you mean =(

Oh, I do try for pretty ones too, it's not just smut over there =)

*Hugs* I'm glad you're doing a bit better, or at least in a better state of mind *massive massive huggles*

[identity profile] the-muppet.livejournal.com 2009-02-05 12:34 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm doing fine. Anything other than that I'll whine about on the other filter =)

*hugs*

Spoiler-free? You're amazing. I don't have that much will power!

[identity profile] the-muppet.livejournal.com 2009-02-05 04:47 pm (UTC)(link)
I've totally sppoiled myself by reading stuff for other shows in the past and it really ruined my enjoyment of them - I enjoy Supernatural so much more by not reading all the spoilers or the picking-apart of every aspect of every episode =)

My littlest brother is 20 this weekend. 20. When the hell did that happen?

Time flies. Like really flies!

Very cool. I didn't know you had an icon comm. I shall have to go and look.

[identity profile] the-muppet.livejournal.com 2009-02-05 04:48 pm (UTC)(link)
It's still scary! It'll take me a while to get used to him not being a kid anymore - though I suppose he's not been a kid for a while now =)

Yes I do! It's [livejournal.com profile] paper_packages - all my old music videos are there as well as all the icons I now try to make =)

My host-baby sister turns 19 this year, they grow up so fast!

re Supernatural, I am sooo behind on the eps, same goes for Bones and I scrowl through my friends-list whenever I see anything remotely related to either. Also, Accident? WHAT ACCIDENT?! O.O *wibbles*

Haha, I want cake too XD

*facepalm*

[identity profile] nimielle.livejournal.com 2009-02-05 01:51 pm (UTC)(link)
uhm... haha, apparently I cannot read properly! O.o there was no accident. *breathes easily again*

[identity profile] the-muppet.livejournal.com 2009-02-05 04:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm behind on a couple of other shows, but never on Supernatural =)

No accident - don't worry! *hugs*

I'll have a slice of his cake and think of you - will that do? =D

[identity profile] nimielle.livejournal.com 2009-02-06 04:24 am (UTC)(link)
Heh, I wish I could say the same. I try to be up to date on Supernatural and Bones, but with this connection right now, it's not possible at all.

Haha, yeah, I am soooo glad, I was really worried there for a minute!

I believe that'll definitely do! I shall close my eyes and try to sense the molecules of the "awesome cake" as they float through the universe as they focus on you and consume them through the interwebs XD

On hiatus again? Geez. How silly and annoying.

I have nothing else intelligent to say. Alas.

*hugs*

[identity profile] the-muppet.livejournal.com 2009-02-05 06:07 pm (UTC)(link)
I think that says it all.

*hugs*

I've never watched 'Merlin' but after hearing half of my flist raving about the show, I think I might give it a chance. :D

My littlest brother is 20 this weekend.
They grow up fast, don't they? My little brother just turned 19 last month! O.o I sometimes wish he was still the ickle 12 year old, obsessing about skateboards and Metallica . *sigh*

[identity profile] the-muppet.livejournal.com 2009-02-06 01:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, you really should watch Merlin if only just for the sheer entertainment value =) It's on The List so help yourself =)

Yeah - it's weird Peter now being 20, can't quite get my head around it.

[identity profile] starrylizard.livejournal.com 2009-02-07 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
I don't mind the lack of smut factor. lol

Spoiler free is awesome, although I guessed the major plot points this week. Ugh, sometimes I hate that I do that while watching... even when unspoiled I have to think ahead. :P

[identity profile] the-muppet.livejournal.com 2009-02-07 10:02 am (UTC)(link)
As you well know *pokes you* I do other stuff besides smut! *lol*

Still spoiler-free - and still haven't seen it =( Was going to watch it last night after posting my latest icons and just as I was finishing up the power went off. And stayed off for 6 hours - which made it pretty damn cold here - so I just went to bed. *sighs* I'll watch it this evening hopefully =)

[identity profile] starrylizard.livejournal.com 2009-02-07 10:10 am (UTC)(link)
I know, and I prefer those ones... well at least for Merlin. :)

Aww, well enjoy! Hiatus coming. Bleh!
