I need a River Song icon

[shah_of_blah]

Doctor Who fans on my flist, run (do not walk) to chaila43 's journal to read her excellent piece of meta, The Obligatory River/Eleven Feminist Manifesto.  I'm thinking I need a River Song icon to express my crazy love for her and all that.  Maybe I will trade in my Martha icon even though it is lovely.

I don't have much else to report.  I am working on season 2 of Farscape, and I like it but still have mixed feelings.  Love Aeryn.  Go back and forth on John.  I'm liking Chiana.  I really liked Zan (sp?) before but not so much now.  I don't really care for D'Argo, and I don't see the point of Rigel.  And they could do with some better bad guys.  Ah well, I am enjoying it.

I am also, oddly enough, rewatching The Education of Max Bickford.  I don't even know why (because it's there?) but I still love Nell and mostly enjoy the rest of the show too.  Even if I occasionally fast-forward through the boring bits.

But I keep getting distracted by the genius that is Third Rock from the Sun.  Seriously.  Genius.  I appreciate it so much more now that I am older and actually get the jokes.

I have not been writing anywhere near as much as I should be.  I am filling my summer with fantasy reads though.  To wit, I loved the Lies of Locke Lamora, am not loving The Graveyard Book, and am re-reading The Demon's Covenant AGAIN (oh Nicholas Ryves, why so tempting?).

Don't we ALL. Or y'know, more of them. ;)

Also, if you give up your Martha icon, I might be tempted to steal it because it is lovely.

I'm on season two of Farscape as well. Huh.

It's funny how with some books we definitely coincide in tastes (you're the person who recced Howl's Moving Castle to me, as I recall, and I loved it), but others... like my disdain for The Amber Spyglass and yup, The Lies of Locke Lamora. I couldn't even finish reading that one. It fits into the "books I sort of want to fling across the room" category.

Third Rock from the Sun is indeed brilliant and John Lithgow is a comic genius. Kristen Johnston too.

I am behind on my reading list (and have just noted those you've mentioned). If you haven't read it, The Deed of Paksennarion by Elizabeth Moon is absolutely excellent. :>)

The Education of Max Bickford was on along time ago for not very long at all. I'm impressed that anyone actually knows about it. Did they make dvd's?
