4/14

This post requires more music.
I'm thinking back to the times when I posted on blogspot every day (there was maybe one month where this happened) and feeling like I should be like that more often.
SO...
Here's another excerpt, because I'm too lazy to say anything brilliant.



“Donna.” Marlene poked her shoulder, and Donna started. 
 “What?” she asked loudly. “What? What do you want?” 
 “Is there a particular reason why you’re staring at Shelley Mumps like that?” asked Marlene, amused. Mary raised her eyebrows. 
 “Are you trying to make her explode with wandless magic?” she asked brightly. “Because I would fully support that decision.”

Love,
Jules

    Love the excerpt, (:
    It is almost one in the morning, I hate doing last minute english essays. Procrastination always gets to me. Like now.
    Jules, your excerpt cheered me up a bit. (:

    just wanted to say that you are my favorite person ever right now because my week has been miserable but it has been slightly less miserable because you gave us /two/whole/ excerpts.
    This makes me want to hug you.
    But I won't cause you'll get my germs.
    And cause you're not within hugging distance.

    (also, Fringeception tomorrow!)

    Oh! I loved that song! And I loved the excerpt even more! I'm curious as to why Donna is glaring at Shelley and I could speculate... but I would probably get it wrong! :D
    Anyway, you made my day (it's Friday morning over here already)!

  17. SarahApril 15, 2011 at 12:04 AM

    Shelley probably had to say something bad about Ancient Runes for Donna to care enough to glare at her

    What didn't suck this (my) week:

    2. Jules' excerpt.

    3. Jules' playlist.

    Seriously - thank you very much, Jules. I had terrible week and now, as it ends, I can cheer for you've updated twice aaand Fringeception and Doctor Who are returning. Yay!

    And Donna! She's one of my favourites OCs! Donna is always the answer ;)

    You have been excellent as of late Jules with the answering of all the questions in character and the excerpts and the music and I want you to want me, what a song, sad that it is after this time frame. It fits quite nicely. Perhaps I am pushing it right about now but do you have a time frame for le update? Something to write on my calendar?
    I just love this story :)

    That song is so wonderful! I'm obsessing over Greg Laswell now.

    I feel sad. I could have been listening to this a long time ago had I not been boycotting Grey's Anatomy. The "Off I Go" song is pretty amazing as well.

    New obsessions... YAY!

  25. ToddApril 15, 2011 at 2:13 PM

    Haha, Jenn got herself excited for no reason. Fear not, Jenn. If I might suggest... two shows this weekend.

    Tonight "Sanctuary" comes back on the SyFy channel for a new round of awesomeness - I recommend it to anyone who likes Victorian mythology (re: Jack the Ripper, Sherlock Holmes, Nikola Tesla, Invisible Man, etc.) and Doctor Who-esque monsters and creatures. First two seasons streaming on Netflix. It's seriously one of my favorite things of all time, Canadian, 90% shot on green screen. Amanda Tapping kicks ass and Chris Heyerdahl is the Ultimate BAMF. There is no competition. Even Neville Longbottom can't compete with his wonderous bad-assery.

    Also, this Sunday HBO premieres "A Game of Thrones" which looks to be all sorts of good swords-and-magic fantasy, though I don't know the books on which the show is based. However, the author is a producer so it should be faithful and interesting. Plus, Sean Bean with hair just like Boromir in LOTR. Boromir lives, my friends. If you have HBO then definitely check it out to see what's what.

    It'll tide you over until next weekend, at least. Then I've got something lined up Friday, Saturday, and Sunday for me to geek out over.

    So I'm browsing through fanfiction for a good LJ story and none of them compare to TLAT... :[ not even the mindless smut that I used to love. Perhaps this is the universe's way of telling me to do my homework.

  28. ToddApril 15, 2011 at 4:15 PM

    @321 I've never read the books - must confess to be more of a Terry Goodkind type of girl and totally loved the LOTS show. How would you rank George R.R. Martin? Would I like his work?

    TODD I LOVE YOU!

    I completely forgot that Game of Thrones starts on Sunday. And Fringe and Camelot tonight!

    So you've decided to stop throwing baby grands at my head, then, have you? And... tell me more about this Camelot.

  31. JennApril 15, 2011 at 7:22 PM

    Well I'm about to go read, so I'll get back to you about the baby grands.

    I like Camelot. Well mainly LOVE who's playing in it. It's got Joseph Fiennes as Merlin, Eva Green is Morgan Le Fey and Jamie Campbell Bower is Arthur. First three episodes are out and the fourth was on tonight on Starz.

    Here's a trailer to give you a feel for it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fb3_AyOplQw

    You watched LOTS? I refused to watch TV for three months after that ended. Need moar Cara!

    Camelot looks interesting, and it definitely looks more faithful to the legend (if that's even possible, considering how many things have been added since the original story) than Merlin. However, my heart sort of belongs to Colin Morgan because he's one of three actors in the world that can bring tears to my eyes. I'll have to check it out. Thanks, doll. Now you're obligated to watch Sanctuary.

  35. JennApril 15, 2011 at 9:42 PM

    @Todd: I had to buy season 1 and 2 of LOTS from Amazon.com because I couldn't get them ANYWHERE in Canada. Cara was amazing, and Kahlan when she got that black outfit. Holy Mary Mother of God.

    @Riley: I'll add you right now!

  48. ToddApril 15, 2011 at 11:02 PM

    @Marie I think she's more kick-ass in Sanctuary, but it might just be the British accent + gun + black leather that's clouding my judgment. Maybe if she wore more black leather as Sam I might think differently.

    I'm actually holding out buying DH pt1, since I'm hoping they'll eventually release the two parts together as a sort of package deal. So... that's me.

    I love you guys. Srsly.

    Also, I don't watch those shows (dr who, fringe, lots, the canadian one) so I don't have much to add

    You add alcohol. This is always a plus (unless you're under twenty one in the States because that's illegal so don't get caught).

    Legend of the Seeker (I didn't know either, so I googled it....google always knows)

  62. ToddApril 16, 2011 at 9:56 AM

    Legend of the Seeker is (was, wah!) a syndicated drama created by the same people who produced The Legendary Journeys of Hercules and its more famous spin-off Xena: Warrior Princess. LOTS is based on Terry Goodkind's best-selling novel series The Sword of Truth. And it kicks ass.

    ReplyDelete
  63. JennApril 16, 2011 at 11:06 AM

    It was amazing. Hot guys. Hot girls. Magic. Swords. And lots of kicking ass. However, it was cancelled last year after only having 2 seasons. It was a horrible decision.

    Also, to all my american friends, I'm so sorry about your stupid drinking age. I've been drinking legally for the past 2 years since it's 18 in Quebec. Plus I never knew (until I met a bunch of Americans at school) how much worse their punishment is than over here. Stay strong kiddies. And like Todd said, don't get caught :)
