today and Merlin
These pictures of the Obamas are not new but they're sure to brighten your day or evening or whatever. I mean seriously, I can't believe how adorable this family is.
I am not actually experiencing Yuletide stress but I use this icon out of sympathy for those of you who are and because I think it's so great. With help from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
claudia603 I finished and uploaded a third story this afternoon, and got a screencap of my name with story number 200. \o/ I know it's pretty meaningless but it's neat to see a big round number like that.
The weather here is very icky tonight. I was out running in the afternoon just as the rain was starting to freeze. A lot of other people were also at the grocery store stocking up since it's going to get worse tonight and tomorrow. Luckily I shouldn't have to go out at all tomorrow. My roommate and I are in for the night and planning to heat up some frozen pizza and maybe make some mulled wine and watch a movie, about which I may or may not then try to write another Yuletide story. o_0
Ooh, and last night I watched the first episode of Merlin! I like it okay so far, will need to watch some more to see whether I really get hooked or not. Merlin is certainly a cutie. I enjoy staring at him and am a total sucker for both his sweetness and his "omg why am I like this?" angst. On the other hand I'm afraid the show in general might be a little too cute for me. Like during the cute fight scenes when there's that cheerful music playing, or when the kids are throwing vegetables at him, I get all grumbly. Also I really can't stand Arthur and I don't mean that in a love-to-hate-him kind of way, I mean I really can't stand him and find him boring. As far as I can tell the fandom will be all about Merlin/Arthur and I think that will remind me of Harry/Draco which I don't read because, you know, I really can't stand Draco. But like I said I'll need to watch some more. Heck, I did not care for the first two Harry Potter books and movies either. Maybe this show will also get darker and more interesting to me as it goes on.
