I spent the weekend doing chores with my mother (which was actually pretty awesome; we got some projects done that are going to make my life a lot easier). The only downside was that in the brief periods where I had free time first my internet was being finicky and then livejournal was being finicky.

I DON'T LIKE THE THINGS I LOVE TO BE FINICKY, OKAY?

However, I am no longer working at my data entry job so hopefully (please, please, please) I will have more time to catch up on fun things.

On the subject of fun things, it it apparently The Middleman Appreciation day.

And who doesn't appreciate a show that puts out PSA like this and this and has porn that's this amazing? I know I do.

This is prompted by mm_ww  brainstorming prompts for (yes, it's that time of year again) THE EPIC PORN BATTLE.

That's right, MULTI-FANDOM PORN BATTLE IS LOOKING FOR PROMPTS RIGHT HERE.

Speaking of things that lead to porn (or should):

Dear Audrey Parker,

( Haven 2.02 )

This week's fannish5 was adorable:

Five best signs of affection from one character to another.

NCIS: LA. Kensi spins a suspect around and slams him into a side-walk stand before handing him over to a rival agency... a move she executed in order to steal his cell phone. Afterwards, Sam clucks her cheek with his knuckles and it's the cutest thing you ever saw.

Haven. Audrey's surprise party:



Parks & Rec.

Ben: Every department is losing a Leslie Knope.
Ron: No, they are not. They never had one to begin with.

TVD. Stefan escorts Elena and Bonnie over to Caroline's house for a sleepover after Caroline was kidnapped and tortured.

Fringe. Charlie sits by Olivia's bedside and talks to her about the time he got shot.

Title: There's Other Girls In The Sea
Fandom: Haven
Rating: PG
Pairing: Audrey/Duke
Summary: "Okay, sure, Audrey was the first fed he'd ever met with an adorable giggle and a compatible sense of humor, but there were sure to be another one or two in existence ....who would also help paint for homemade pizza and beer? Maybe not."

Title: Rugburn
Fandom: Haven
Rating: NC-17
Pairing: Audrey/Duke
Summary: In which Duke's dishonorable intentions are not foiled by indiscreet bedsprings and there are freshly made chicken and mozzarella sandwiches.

Title: Heat Delusions
Fandom: Haven
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: Nathan/Audrey
Warnings: sexy thoughts
Summary:  He can't feel fire, he can't feel ice, but if he touches Audrey's mouth now, just at this moment, her lips would feel chilly.

For the first time in months, I had a Saturday off.

A glorious, glorious evening to do nothing but relax and chat with my flist. Seriously, if you're in the mood to talk fandom, ask questions about shipping, share cute/sexy/funny/eye candy gifs, this is the post for you. (And I'm also going to be hanging close to the computer tomorrow as well, so if you're out having an amazingly fun Saturday night, come chat on Sunday. I'll still be in the mood to gab.)

Things that are going on in my life, to get the conversational ball rolling:

~I went and did this amazing self-defense seminar today. It was amazing and I am going to have some glorious bruises tomorrow. (Frankly, you can already see them.)

~I rewatched Tangled with my mom (she hadn't seen it yet). It was just as adorable as it was the first time and I think Flynn and Rapunzel make a fabulous couple.

~I may go get ice cream. In fact, I think I shall.

~I have been looking at upfront trailers for the upcoming fall season and frankly, I have only seen two that even look worth checking out:



This look funny but also distressingly close to what my life could be this fall.



No idea what this is about but I'm actually intrigued.

All the rest, frankly, look various flavors of boring.

~But that's okay, because in the next two months BURN NOTICE, HAVEN, AND TRUE BLOOD ARE RETURNING. Sing hallelujah.

~In fact, I'm so excited about the new season of TB, that I'm rereading Dead Until Dark. Which, frankly, I have a suspicion I can no longer recommend as a qualitatively good vampire story, even though I retain a lot of affection for it. Your thoughts, flist?

 

In case any of you are wondering what is this show called Haven that suddenly started popping up on my lj, let me introduce you (using the mainly the same reccing materials that  mollivandersmollivanders used to get me to start watching).

First, this gif:




Adorable, no?

Now, that basic premise:

( the non-spoilery rec part of the post )

Also, I just finished the thirteenth episode, so any and all chat about this show, pairing, characters, speculation: hit me. So if you haven't see this show and don't like to be spoiled, I'd be wary of the comment section.

Wasn't episode 1x11 of Haven THE BEST EVER, OMG?
