1. I ♥ lists.

2. A fool and her money: I caved and ordered an Ipod Nano, in apple green. If fate isn't cruel it should arrive within the week. Oh, my precioussss...

3. I dreamed that I bought a paid eljay account. A nagging feeling tells me this might come true. Go away, nagging feeling. Go away.

4. My Iron Man DVD arrived today. I'm brimful with glee and anticipation. Oh, RDJ.

5. Tropic Thunder next week. Can't. Wait.

6. I feel a burning desire to write fic. Only, I'm not writing at the moment, so, hmm...

7. I still don't have a Jim Gordon icon, but several are in the making. Yay, progress.

a) I sorta want a new header, because there's a grievous lack of Gordon in this one. Hankering for more Gary Oldman vs serious lack of time: hmmm...

b) No news on the writing front, which is ten kinds of stupid and irritating. Again with the lack of time. Also: where's my motivation gone?

c) At least I'm working on my next icon batch, and there will be at least two Gordon icons, oh yes.

d) I'm in the mood to rewatch my favorite scenes from Batman Begins over and over, so that's what I'll do. Yay, precious time off the clock.

e) Have I mentioned that there isn't anywhere near enough new Batman/Gordon fic? (Although in my head, the whole thing is beginning to tilt towards Gordon/Bruce, which amuses me to no end. And warms my heart, oh yes it does.)
ethia: (tdk > this dead city is mine /me/)
There's a steady influx of Joker/Batman fic in my del.icio.us subscriptions, whereas Batman/Gordon seems to be more of a trickle. It's just that I'm really, really rather more in the mood for the latter. The term withdrawal might apply. Oh, drat.

I guess this means I'll have to get off my lazy ass and finally get started writing me some Batman fic. If that isn't incentive, I don't know what is. *kicks lazy self in the shin*

Babylon A.D. was... pretty. And its soundtrack was decent. And it had Romy Schneider's daughter in it. So, yeah. I can has a good scifi movie soon, yes?

Caught a bit of the Fifth Element today and oh hell yeah, Gary Oldman. He does have a tendency to pick roles with whacky elaborate costumes, no? Which is probably why I tend to recognize him by his mouth and eyes.

So, I thought about Bruce and Jim dancing together and whether it's so OOC that it could only be written as crack. I mean, I can sort of picture it, but then I don't really see them actually doing it, like, waltzing across the floor of Bruce's living-room; it just seems too... mushy. On the other hand, with cross-dressing and a fair amount of jealousy (on Bruce's part) thrown into the mix, I can just see it happen. Bad brain, no cookie.

Want to see Babylon A.D., like, right now. In German, because Vin's dubbed voice is just that good. All dark and deep and growly and oh my, isn't it Friday yet?

Found three more excellent (but oh so brief) Bruce/Gordon stories today but I'm afraid I'm going to run out of fresh stuff soon. The Art of Writing Fic and I aren't on friendly terms right now, else I'd give it a try. Maybe once the killer cold from hell has left my sinuses things will brighten up. Until then, it's back to the drawing board.

Spent the afternoon mainlining all the Batman/Gordon stuff I could find and damn, there is way. Too. Little. How's a girl going to get her fix that way? Oh, how I crave the really, really good stuff in which Batman's all growly and possessive and Gordon's awed and gentle and pressing all the right buttons without even trying to. Oh, Jim. ♥

Do I have to mention that I've just rewatched The Dark Knight and I'm in AWE of Gary Oldman's skill, yes I am. I'm so going to help push this movie way past Titanic's box office record, baby. It makes me weep to think that the DVD won't come out until December. I'm not the most patient pea in the pot so that's going to be one hell of a long wait. Why so cruel, PTB?

I've yet to check out Ef: A Tale of Memories and I'm really looking forward to it. Saturday, I'm looking at you.

I feel like I'm coming down with a cold, which wouldn't come as a total surprise since a bunch of my co-workers came to work today all red-eyed and sniffly. This clearly calls for a nice hot shower, hot chocolate and an evening spent snuggled up in bed while watching Batman Begins on DVD.

If I were writing I'd be working on a Gordon/Bruce piece in which Gordon knows what's what (and who's who) and Bruce receives a healthy dose of TLC. /headdesk
ethia: (tdk > so blue for you /me/)
Started to watch Batman Begins yesterday and oh my, I'd totally forgotten that Bruce and Gordon share a piece of backstory. Oh Gary Oldman, how are you so amazing?

Also started to organize the various fic snippets TDK inspired so far; the neat freak in me rejoices. Now all I need to do is finish them, which ohmygod, the hardest part.

Also also: GIP.

I. I ♥ the Hype Machine and its spy feature. New music FTW.

II. Still not writing. Which could be attributed to the fact that I haven't settled on an OTP yet (which is not quite true because Batman/Gordon is drawing me further in by the minute and I'm not exactly resisting and oh, the possibilities...). Or... maybe I'm just lazy that way.

III. I finished a few icons today (not even looking at Word sideways) and there might well be an icon post in the near future. Like, possibly by the end of the week. If I don't get sidetracked by writing fic. Yeah, right.

IV. Italics are love. No, really.

V. Note to self >> check out Ef: A Tale of Memories by Makoto Shinkai.

That Batman Kink Meme makes for interesting reading material. Very inspirational, too. Not to mention reassuring to see my mind's not the only one that's stuck in the gutter.

I'm ODing on the Clint Mansell version of Requiem For A Dream, said by some to be one of the most overused trailer soundtracks. While that's probably true, it doesn't keep me from enjoying the song and watching the Babylon A.D trailer in which it is used. Mhm, Vin Diesel. In a scifi flick. Just what I've been waiting for.

I'm... making Batman icons instead of writing fic. How totally unsurprising. Not that I'm ungrateful for this creative outburst - it's just that I wish the outlet were, for once, a different one.

I ordered Batman Begins on Amazon just for the fun of it; can it be here right now, pls? I do so want to hear the growly batvoice...
