- *pokes last post* Anyone else want fic? I just want lots of excuses to write!

- Stuff I am inordinately excited about: SMASH HITS LADY GAGA SPECIAL, OH MY GOD. (I'm sure people who didn't grow up with Smash Hits won't understand why this is potentially so amazing, so you'll just have to trust me that it is.) If there's not a biscuit tin interview I will be v. disappointed.

- I'm getting pretty fed up with the snow already, even though a) we haven't had a huge amount where I am, and b) I got to leave work an hour early today. The fact that I've started finding snow annoying instead of fun is a sign that I'm getting old, isn't it? :(

- Random TV rec of the day: BOARDWALK EMPIRE. Is anyone watching it? If not, you should be - it's this new HBO show about Prohibition-era gangsters and it's awesome. Honestly, I only started watching it because I heard there were lesbians (I know, I know, I'm rolling my eyes at myself too) but the whole thing is brilliant, not just that storyline.

- I still haven't seen Deathly Hallows yet. FAIL.

- I've just realised how close Skins gen 3 and US!Skins are. How has time passed so quickly? It seems like fandom is way more excited about US!Skins, which is kind of hilarious considering the initial reaction. Is anyone actually looking forward to gen 3 at all, or is everyone just expecting it to be shit?

I'm looking forward to gen 3, but I was so sad about series 4, I'm not expecting a lot. Strangely enough, I had a dream I saw a sneak preview of the first episode of US!Skins (probably because I saw a commercial for it during Glee; god, what a shitstorm that is, but anyway), and I remember being disappointed because no one smoked or said anything remotely interesting. LOLLL Whatever, they're all so pretty, I'm sure it can't be too awful.

Yeah, series 4 really killed my love for UK!Skins and I basically have no faith in Jamie Brittain's ability to write anything coherent or compelling. I'll still watch, obviously, but I'm expecting the worst. But maybe it'll surprise me!

Whatever, they're all so pretty, I'm sure it can't be too awful.

This. As long as Tea is there being cute and making out with girls, I'm good.

(I thought I'd managed to stop watching Glee but I'm weak and started watching again, even though I still hate 90% of it. Why do I do this to myself?)

I'm mildly excited about gen 3, but US Skins seems to be happening ... just somewhere else to me. I've not had any enthusiasm/haterness for it any point, so I guess I won't be watching it.

OMG OMG and see DH! I thought it was the best film yet, by far.

I really want to! Maybe this weekend, if there's not too much snow.
