Wait, that means I don't have to review tonight!
Feeling a little sad that American Horror Story is gone for another year. If you missed my Character Retrospective, you should totally check it out. I reviewed each and every episode this season, and in case you're late to the party--I'm damn witty.
You may not even realize that you totally care what I think.
But you do...
Also reviewing Ripper Street and The Following. Ripper Street is shaping up to be really good. The Following is a couple of awesome actors doing their best with some preposterous and shitty writing. I liken Kevin Williamson's "dramatic surprises" to bird poop, in that they drop out of nowhere, with no real importance except to irritate the fuck out of you.
Plus, if everything I know about the FBI comes from watching TV, I shouldn't know way more about it than someone who is writing, directing, and producing a show that features the FBI prominently. Kevin Williamson doesn't know how to write dialogue for grown-ups either. It's also painfully, upsettingly obvious who the secret mole is.
The rest of this week is finishing the new Stig & The Puppetman, working on Millicent Mixter and a little bit of paid marketing work. I'm supposed to go get blood taken, but I keep not feeling like it. Plus, everyone outside is sick. Thinking I might watch this copy of John Dies at the End I scored. Then I can write a review of it.
Stumbled over an ad for a part-time day-job I'm looking in to, just because I think it would be enormous fun. It combines a cool combination of things I used to do, but only stuff I liked. Hint: I once worked for a magician.
I sort of wish I was good at video games. That new Aliens: Colonial Marines game looks pretty badass. I might get it for H so I can watch him play.

new job?
(Anonymous) 2013-01-31 11:23 pm (UTC)(link)I think the best jobs come sort of serendipitously, when you aren't really needing one. That's how I found the job I'm at now, the job that makes me happy to go to work.
Best to stay home while the flu and norovirus is going around like crazy. They keep shutting down school districts around here and it makes me happy that I have no children in public school to bring that crap home. Because I work with people that do have children... I have wipes to wipe every dang thing off and hopefully kill the germs!
Hugs,
Cousin Vyx
Re: new job?
There's this cute little theatre space in Kerrytown that is suitable for little shows and kids parties and stuff. I'm doing the marketing, although they already have a webmaster and a graphics chick. So I'll be working with them to set up a website, start a blog and a vlog, and manage the social media.
