Sometimes, I wonder about Telly.

vampychick19: I usually pick my Derby horse totally randomly, and then shamelessly stick with the winner for the next two races.
vampychick19: I'm hoping we'll actually get a Triple Crown champion sometime before I, y'know, die.
teleute12: Cool.
teleute12: When was the last one?
teleute12: (...It has happened, right?)
vampychick19: Affirmed in '78.
vampychick19: (...I worry about you sometimes.)
vampychick19: Secretariat? Seattle Slew?
teleute12: (All I know about horsies, I learned from Sneaky-Pie Brown mysteries.)
teleute12: Was a famous horsie!

There's Nought as Queer as Folk

I should have seen this coming.

I mean, come on. It's a show about gay. Very pretty gay, from the assorted icons I've observed. How could I not love that? All it needs is some swordfights and I'd be its neverending slave. And Julie pushes it heavy, and generally Julie's got good taste*. She even finally converted me to Farscape, damn her, ages after it was cancelled.

So of course I was going to get sucked in eventually. But the problem with Queer as Folk is, basically, the same one I had with Farscape. The channel it airs on? Yeah, I don't get that one. And at the moment, I don't have the bank to make DVDs a possibility.

I've been reading QAF fic compulsively for like, three days now. It's finals week, so I need to be distracted periodically, and QAF fic is really good for this because look! Porn! About characters I haven't read about before! So um, yeah. I've basically been turned into a Brian/Justin 'shipper without ever having seen a second of the show. It's kind of interesting.

Next on my agenda (besides passing English lit) is actually seeing an episode of QAF. Wish me luck.

*Okay, there was that one three-year incident in the late nineties known as Roswell, but I'm certainly in no position to be throwing stones over that one.

Edited to shut Auroura up.

Leavin' On A Jet Plane

My passport's here! I am now officially legal to travel! WOO!

...um, that's all. Carry on, carry on.
