1) fic rec: I know I haven't recced in a while and I'm ridiculously late in reccing this particular story, but if you've not yet read Think Less and See It Grow then you really, really should. It's a Merlin/Arthur boarding school AU and it's totally wonderful ♥

2) new moon: Went to see New Moon last Friday and can't decide whether I'm relieved it was better than Twilight (which was truly atrocious) or disappointed that it wasn't as crackily bad as the book. Either way, Kristen Stewart still can't act at all.

3) lottery: I won the lottery! Sort of. My friend Sam put a lucky dip lottery ticket in my birthday card and I got 4/6 numbers. That'd normally be about £70 apparently but so many people won that day it was £19 - which is still pretty wonderful =)

4) bradley/colin: Really enjoyed the triple bill of Merlin/Bradley & Colin this weekend - could they be any more adorkable?

5) flist cut: Did another flist cut this weekend. Hate doing them. Still wussed out and didn't cut as many as I was going to. Am equally wussy when wanting to friend new people too. Why so pathetic, me?

Thanks for the fic rec. I'm very far behind in my reading but I'll add it to my list :)

I haven't read nor seen any of the Twilight series. I just...I don't know. I heard not-so-favorable things about the books and it kind of put me off the films. But, hey, cracky entertainment has its merits ^_^

Woot! for lottery winnings :D

OMG! I'm still reeling over the Merlin fandom goodness from the past couple of days. Just when I think they can't be any more appealing to me, I find out they can, in fact.

I like a smaller friends list. Not so much because it's more manageable (even though it is) but I want to have interaction with the people on my list. I have wussed out, though, lately, on friending a couple of people I think are interesting. They are in the Merlin fandom but I still feel like I'm on the fringe of the fandom. So I'm hesitant to branch out. You are my only LJ friend who is really into Merlin. Most everyone else is just like, "Oh, that's nice...blah, blah, whatever" when I post about anything Merlin related. Oh, well.

I'm glad you're on my flist! *hugs*

I'm not saving anywhere near as many as I was; don't know if I'm just getting choosy or there is less stuff out there that appeals to me. This though, this is amazing ♥

If you read the Twilight series as bad crack!fic and don't take it at all seriously, it can be highly amusing =)

I know what you mean; just when you think that Bradley & Colin can't possibly be any more adorkable... they are!

Not so much because it's more manageable (even though it is) but I want to have interaction with the people on my list.

It's really both those reasons for me - I hate scrolling past the same posts every time plus I want to be interacting with my flist, otherwise what's the point of having them around?

I'm glad to be your Merlin person!

*hugs muchly*
