Happy New Year
... she croaked. I managed to get the most annoyingly long lasting head cold about two weeks ago. That's just about cleared up but now I seem to have tonsillitis. *tiny fist of poorly rage*
I think it came from Mr Lux's mum last weekend - she was all sniffly too. I sincerely hope I didn't swap it with her for head cold of doom. Anyway, I'm so happy I stored away that giant box of Zapain last year because swallowing is extremely painful. Lying on the sofa drugged yay.
I watched the first series of Breaking Bad yesterday - a very dark comedy drama about a rather put-upon middle aged chemistry teach who, for various reasons, 'breaks bad', ie takes up a life of crime. Bryan Cranston is fantastic in it. I'll definitely watch the rest if I can.
A few fic recs:
Sherlock: My heart pumps yet the poison by colouredink. Not exactly slash, not exactly gen, nonsexual kink. Sherlock tries to get Irene Adler out of his system.
Meet me inside by Wakeneve. Slash, explicit m/m, UST. Sherlock and John meet in prison. It keeps the dynamics of their canon relationship really well, and adds something to them by giving them a different setting.
Star Trek (2009): The Lotus Eaters by Aldora89. Slash, m/m. Excellent and very long adventure/hurt/comfort epic where Jim and Spock are stranded together on a hostile planet. Also they make friends with one of the most endearing original alien lifeforms I've read.
Ps - For anyone who's interested, Adobe have got a free beta download of Lightroom 4.
