liptonrm_backupPosting because I'm too tired to sleep. Randomosity to follow.
- New Supernatural this week. My excitement cannot be textually (or verbally) rendered!
- I'd forgotten how much I enjoyed the movie adaptation of Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy. It's quirky and fun. Too British for mainstream audiences but not British enough for the ravening fans. As I'm not a ravening fan of the book (haven't read it since high school) it's fun enough for me. The cast is just fantastic.
- The law has too many niggling details and I have to learn a metric fuckload of them for my finals next week. I'm done whining about it, so I won't say anything else. Though have you ever noticed how there are primarily two different types of brains? There are the ones that go through items logically to reach a conclusion and others that take intuitive leaps to reach the same place. I'm more of the intuitive type and law school is deifinitely more of the logical type. It's like math, in a way.
- BBC America is playing the run of Dr. Who with Nine and I'd forgotten how much I loved Nine. I love Ten, I do, but I think I love Nine a little more. Maybe. I don't know. All I know is that both of them make me cry like a baby and that's always a good thing.
- Speaking of, saw the Torchwood episode with the fairies and loved it to little itty bits. I have a deep and abiding love for modern fairy tales. I've spent so much of my life reading stories like that that I forget that there are people out there that believe that fairy tales are children's stories and fairies are nice, pretty, generally harmless beings. Trust me, people, if you don't take care with fairies they will fuck you up.
- And, finally, because I could go on like this forever (late + punch-drunk =![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
liptonrm can ramble ad infinitum) but here's an idea I've been having fun with. Dean and Sam, post the End of the World (whatever apocalypse floats your boat, though zombie would make this scenario a little more difficult), and they find themselves traveling from enclave to enclave teaching survivors how to deal with the supernatural because the dramatic decrease in human population has caused things to wake up and come out to play that have been living on the edges of human civilization for hundreds of years. Humans have to relearn how to deal with the things in the dark because those same things won't lie down and admit defeat any longer.
- And with that I say good night.

What my brain showed me:
My excitement cannot be sexually (or verbally) rendered!
I'm just saying.
I'm also just saying that holy cow I love your brain and its endless variations on apocalyptic joy.
Oh, and I also love Nine to itsy bitsy bits, too.
Hang in there! You're almost done with the semester.
