- Kaya Scodelario continues to be hilarious and adorable on Twitter. Her nan drove through a fence on a quadbike! AMAZING. Kat and Meg need to do a hilarious interview at some godawful film premiere if they want me to remember how much I love them.
- Yesterday was the Caribbean Carnival in Leicester, which is one of the few things about my home town that's actually pretty awesome. (I didn't actually know it was on, but I was in town and, well, it's kind of hard to miss.) I got a few (rubbish) photos of some of the cooler parts on the parade :
The girl up there looked kind of hilariously bored, even though she had easily the best float.
Dragon!
These people were awesome. They came and danced about two feet away from me.
This fierce bitch was my favourite. Apparently you're never too old to dress up like a butterfly and dance in the streets. ♥
- I'm making slow progress on the 80s AU, which is up to about 4000 words at the moment. I'm kind of enjoying writing it, but this is my first time writing an AU and it's HARD. I feel like I have to have a completely different approach to characterisation; most of the relationships on the show are very much tied to the circumstances, so if the circumstances change the character dynamics do too. (For example, Emily isn't in the fic, so Katie and Naomi's relationship is completely different and I have to figure out how to make it still seem authentic.) UGH, WRITING. WHY DO I BOTHER.
- I've been re-watching Weeds from the beginning and fuck, I'd forgotten how good the early seasons were. Conrad and Heylia > Esteban. (Also, the early seasons had the advantage of not having a stupid pregnancy/baby storyline. I don't mind it a huge amount, but I don't think there's ever been a baby storyline that I've actively enjoyed. In like, ANYTHING EVER.)
- Is it just me, or has LJ been a bit useless at emailing notifications lately? I think I've got most of them, but if I haven't replied to comments or whatever, I promise I'm not just ignoring you.
