To those of you who recommended certain writers to me that you thought I'd like, you're horrible people. Do none of you have JOBS? Lives? Dogs to walk, lawns to cut, toenails to polish, meals to cook?

Last night I took my frigging LAPTOP TO BED WITH ME for some bedtime reading, because I'd used up all the ink in my printer the night before.

And then I'm reading some little snippet somewhere or other by my new goddess, plumsuede, and discover this in the intro to the story:

Author's notes: I guess I don't have any. I would give an angst warning, but I just spent two hours of my life watching Bush give his unconvincing, bullshit speech which was followed by an hour long town meeting of the most frightening citizens this country had to offer. THAT'S angst. This is just fic. If I was god, I wouldn't bless America. I'd get the FUCK out. /sorry.

What the hell do you do with a fandom that not only has a great sense of humor but practically perfect POLITICS in its freaking PORN, too? You guys are nuts. I'm really loving this. But I hope this fever passes soon cuz I have things to do and people depending on me.

Now please excuse me. I have some important reading to do and I think the battery on my laptop is recharged.

I read a sweet little set of episode 409 gapfillers over on qaf_retread and it sent me back to watch some of season 4 (anything to avoid going on with season 5 which is stressing me out hugely). I watched 408 and 409 and 410 and although there were innumerable hideous scenes in them that I had to ff through (Lindsay+Sam=brain bleach needed), I also realized I really liked a lot about those episodes. I liked nearly all of 401, and I actually liked the way Brian reacted to Justin's being involved in the Pink Posse even though that storyline was like fingernails on a chalkboard to me and made me hit the ff a thousand times. And who can totally hate a storyline that gave us chair!sex? I'm just saying.

How do you make a short entry and then click on it to read the extended entry? I write a lot, I'm thinking I shouldn't be doing that - does that mean my entire post is showing up on someone's friends page? Am I violating lj etiquette?
