I am always pretty awful about going to bed like a reasonable person but it's been much worse lately partially due to the fact that I've been having terrible, terrible dreams pretty much every night. Or when I take a late afternoon nap. Also, I gave myself the worst manicure yesterday and had to spend, like, twenty minutes trying to get two coats of red off my nails after my manicure got chipped all to hell in less than twenty-four hours. So even though I soaked my fingers in nail polish remover, my cuticles are all hideously hang-nailed and dyed red, so it's questionable as to if there was any improvement at all. Basically, my hands look like I murdered someone and didn't do a good job covering my tracks.
Now, on to what you are interested in – TV!
[+] I always forget how much I enjoy Elementary until I'm watching Elementary. I was about three episodes behind, so I was able to charge through those, and I just really love that this Sherlock is affected by what people think of him. I love that while Gregson took Holmes back as a consultant, he didn't like it and he made it clear that Holmes had lost his trust. In "the Deductionist" I was thrilled to see that Holmes himself fears for his future and believes he might self-annihlate. His bitterness that the profile was able to predict his struggles with addiction when he didn't was aces.
I keep saying the same things each time I talk about Elementary but in my defense, a genius detective with feelings and flaws who is actually held accountable for his action is still novel.
[+] Young Justice has become the show that I watch while I tumblr. I mean, it's close enough to the end that I'm going to finish watching the show's run, but I am so done with it. I really loved the episode where Artemis and M'gann heal Kaulder, and Conner epically reads Dick the riot act about not sharing information, but the most recent episodes were epically boring. Seriously, how do the writers think we're going to care about these lame assholes? The only thing of 'interest' was how fucking much I hate Mal/Karen. Mal finally got it through his thick skull that Karen was more interested in doing hero shit than dating but no.... Karen just had to be 'oh, no, I really love you' which I call TOTAL BULLSHIT on. Regardless of what the writers imagine happen during the timeskip, the ENTIRE TIME, we've actually seen these characters interacting, Karen has been Just Not That Into Him and he's been unwilling to get it. Why can't a girl prioritize her school and her career over her FUCKING HIGH SCHOOL BOYFRIEND?
[+] Green Lantern had a solid, enjoyable episode this Saturday. Razer, once again, has the best lines: "By the way, if we do explode, you two are acceptable souls to be vaporized with." Awww, that's adorable.
I really loved Hal and company having to deal with the rings being out of power and the issues with language, even before the rings completely died (like rhyme not translating).
Best moment, though, was Razer's epic bitch-please face when Kilowog tossed him the manhunter head. I love how Hal and Kilowog seem to be forgetting that he's not actually a green lantern. (ONE DAY, BB. Or maybe not.)
When Razer strolled back in commenting that his lantern repairing itself was convenient, I was like, 'damn right it's convenient
- that boy has a clockwork girlfriend to save, he doesn't have time to steal a new lantern' and by 'save,' I mean 'humbly petition for forgiveness.'
(Also, what everyone had in their pockets was hilarious. Especially Razer having more weapons than he had fingers.)
So, apparently next episode is called
"love is a battlefield" which I first thought was going to be about Aya and Razer but realized is much more likely to be about Hal and Carol.
[+] Once Upon A Time has been kind of slow, lately, and the way they handle Henry's status as an adopted kid continues to be the worst (breaking news, right?) but I keep sticking around for things like: evil!Charming's harlot of the week being Jack the Giant Killer and real!Charming and Snow running around in Storybrooke with gun and a bow and arrow. Seriously, Snow with her black tights and short skirt and archery was the most sexy!adorable thing ever.
I really do not care about anything related to Mr. Gold. Because I am a terrible person, I laughed when he tried to restore Belle memory by kissing her and then I go really upset about who let him into the hospital room of a injured woman.
