“It was one of those days when you wake up in the morning and gotta go straight back to sleep from the effort. It was one of those days when you turn up at the newsroom after a week and a half of being in the hospital and hope people will notice that he’s wearing a silly hat. (Tiddler: Hey, he’s wearing a silly hat!) I got lucky! The newsroom was pretty much like I remembered it: a bunch of mean-eyed guys who looked like they knew how to use a typewriter, and a bunch of cool-looking broads who looked like they knew how to use a guy. And everywhere, the faint smell of a dirty raincoat. You know, I can’t figure it, but that smell’s everywhere I go. The chicks were looking good: the blondes, the brunettes. Of course, the brunettes could’ve been redheads. They didn’t make this kind of movie in color. It’d been a hard day. I’d been following this guy all day, but I lost him when he heard me talking to myself. You know, any more days this bad and I’m going to have to go back to doing voiceovers for other detectives. (Lynda enters) She was a cool broad, but she had a warmer side. Unfortunately, this was it.”

Press Gang: Series 2, Episode 11
Forever my first tv crush… Oh, year nine me, proving my lifelong love for the (kinda, maybe-reformable) bad boy.
The cover of my new pillow! It’s a pretty tiedye (camouflage green colours) over which I knitted (using 12mm needles and really thick black wool) a square and sewed it on. Warm and squashy, perfect for winter. :)
Today has been a reading day. So far I’ve read City of Glass, City of Fallen Angels and I just finished City of Lost Souls!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, at 500ish pages each, that is a fair bit of reading. Even for me. :)
But back to CITY OF LOST SOULS:
I’m torn between these two emotions: (thankyou to the .gif gods who created them, whoever you are)

and

I LOVED IT.
No spoilers, just that I thought the ending would be so much more heartbreaking than it was; not that it wasn’t a great ending, because it was, or even that it didn’t have its sad moments, its just that I’ve been used to Cassie Clare CRUSHING MY SOUL with each ending (Not City of Glass, obviously) and to have that NOT happen thwarted my expectations, which was a good thing.
I really enjoyed the massive amount of character development; we got so many perspectives and everyone got a bit of screentime to explain motives and explore their psyches a bit more in depth than ever before, which was awesome.
I love them all. I haven’t gotten this attached to characters in a long time. :)
Counting down the days til Clockwork Princess! (Can’t start counting yet for City of Heavenly Fire, its too long to bear right now. :p)
I reblog this everytime I see it on my dash because it, without fail, always makes me laugh.

I’ve apparently totally got a thing for conmen in suits.

Neal Caffrey, White Collar

Patrick Jane, The Mentalist

Barney Stinson, How I Met Your Mother
By far the most interesting characters in any of the shows I’ve been watching lately. :)
In other news, I’ve just watched all of The Mentalist in the past week, while waiting on new episodes of HIMYM and White Collar. Soooo in love with Lisbon, she’s fantastic. And Jane is just so damn pretty…

I love them both!! Especially loving Fugue in Red tonight, an episode which manages to be both hilarious and heartbreaking.
I’m meant to have gone to bed aaages ago cos I’ve got work in the morning, but instead I’m collecting gifs so I can feel like I’ve joined tumblr properly, because everyone has so many fantastic ones and I’m feeling left out hahaha. (They may or may not be gifs of these three shows so far, mostly of the above showing off their smiles… and some futurama ones.)
It’s a little sad that I honestly have NOTHING better to do then melt crayons with a hair dryer. Damn fun though.
Title pretty much says it all- need some more friends to advance in the game, anyone out there play and wanna friend me? :) I’m bikyclist on Origin too :)
