OMG!! *fangirl dance of squee*
Mohinder and Nathan teaming up. Awesome. More from 'Claude', intriguing. Wonder who else he helped and if we'll get to see them.
Claire finding her mother, and her mother having an ability, also awesome. Though it's already been speculated on various Heroes comms that her mom or dad would have had an ability.
I knew Sylar wasn't dead. It just wouldn't make sense for him to be dead. But great cliffhanger with him and Mr. Bennett.
Niki/Jessica storyline creeping along, but how cool was it to see DL walk through the prison wall like that? And Michah, using his ability to scam money from the ATMs. I actually tsked him as he did that. Must be a mom thing.
George Takei as Hiro's dad!!!! *dances* *squees* What a happy fangirl that made me. But of course now I want to know how he ties into all of this.
I'm surrounded by idiots
The mediation I was suppossed to have today? Cancelled.
Did I get a call from my lawyers telling me that? No.
Well I called the paralegal and she says that my lawyer did call and leave a message. If he called, it wasn't hubby's cell and it wasn't the house here. Cause we didn't get a messgae. I know we've given them the number here half a dozen times and I gave it to her again.
But it wasn't really cancelled so much as postponed. Turns out the company had a conflict and couldn't make it to this appointment. So it will be rescheduled and life goes on. But that was a waste of my time today and I'm not a happy client.

While last nights Heroes is downloading and before I set about typing up my B/G story, some thoughts on watching Supernatural. Under a cut, spoilers through episode 14 of Season one.
Sam and Dean get beat up, a lot. I hope Jensen and Jared are getting paid well. But they do look extra cute and woobie-ish when they're hurt.
Two Buffyverse guest stars so far. Amy Acker (Fred/Illyria) and Julie Benz (Darla). I still don't like Amy. Fed was annoying and her character here was kind of like Fred, only with a kid. Illyria was a much better role for her. Julie was good, and can I just say, stunningly beautiful.
The mythology of the show is good, chasing down urban legends like Bloody Mary. But why must every show that deals with the paranormal have to have an episode with bugs? *shivers* Ick. Anyway, the mythology of the show is probably what is keeping me watching. The boys trying to find their father and the thing that killed their mother, makes for good TV. But the last episode I have some issues with. Sam, having visons that are accompanied by blinding head pain? Can we say Cordelia much?
So I'll keep watching and maybe I'll finally see what everyone is flailing about. If not, it's at least an interesting show with pretty men.
Writing, Self-pimping,GIP
I finished the story for the no pressure Giles ficathon. It's incredibly schmoopy. I was going to type it up and post it today, but I think I need to let it sit for a bit just to look at it with fresh eyes before I do post. So next up is Angel/Stargate SG1 crossover that's been eating my brain.
A small bit of self-promotion. The

and The White Knight Awards both close their voting on Wednesday. I'm nominated in several categories at both sites. If you haven't already voted over there, please do. Show your appreciation for some really great authors. And if you vote for me, you'll get cookies!
GIP is from my braintwin,
. You've probably seen the original with just Buffy/Xander and Angel/Wes. Well now it's got Jack/Daniel and Harry/Ron. Fia is the H/R shipper, not me. I try to stay out of the HP fandom. I just watch the movies and read the books.
That's all really. Have a good Monday!

I haven't done one of these in a while, so I thought it was time.
The knee is doing…well. My range of motion is much improved from what is was post surgery. The weight bearing is still a problem. Mostly it's the muscle right above the knee, in the thigh. It's still weak, but the therapist has given me different exorcises to do to try and strengthen it.. Walking wise, I'm sans crutches! It's slow and careful, but it's there. The stairs are especially slow as I go down, left foot on step, right foot on same step not left foot one step, right foot on next step, that's still to painful to do.
We talked with my lawyers last week in prepartation for mediation Wednesday. That's basically where we're going to court quoting a number and arguing with the company's lawyers over that number. It covers all my back pay that is owed to me, the cost of surgery and therapy (if those haven't been paid for yet) and the possibility of fututre surgery (which I'm hoping isn't going to be needed). My lawyer is hopeful. I want to be. I'll probably be a complete and utter wreck all of Wednesday morning. So I'll ask for good thoughts from all of you.
Therapy has been approved for six more weeks, which takes me to the beginning of March. My original doctor (the chiropractor) has extended my time off work until the end of March. I don't see the orthopedist until the 5th of next month. More than likely he'll say I can return to work. Which is scary. I'm not going back to the company, but I really don't have many skills. I'm in the process of getting vocational rehab approved, but I'm not sure what they can do for me.
I'm still interested in going back to school. Hubby says that if I want I can go to Kent State to get my MLS. Which is all well and good. But first I have to get a job and save up some money to move closer to the school because they would require me to be on campus so many days out of the quarter/semester/whatever. So bascially that's a wait and see.
So that's what's going on right now. If I'm not on much Wednesday, you will no why. But with any luck by late afternoon I will have good news to report. I want to thank you all again for being my rocks throughout this entire thing. I love you all.

Yesterday I finally got caught up with Season 2 of Bones. How much do I love Hodgins? I have found yet another geek to add to my list of lovable geeks. *sigh* Today there will likely be watching of Supernatural. I've seen the first two episodes, but hubby was not too interested so the rest of Season 1 has been sitting on my hard drive forever. Today I will watch some.
Writing. It's been going. I got the an idea for my story for
Since the muse is a fickle creature, after that is done, I'll more than likely be sitting down to write the Daniel/Angel Stargate crossover that's been mulling in my brain for a while. Which means I may have to give
As for my two WIPs, they are on hold. With “Healing” I think I need to sit down and write out what I want from this. I already did a little, but maybe I need something more in depth. I started writing it just as a self indulgent crack-fic, which it still is, but I'm a little stuck right now. So instead of just flying by the seat of my pants, which is what I have been doing, I need to start plotting.
“Season of Change” is suffering a little from lack of enthusiasm. I need to rewatch Season 3 to get a feel for the story, it's been to long since I originally rewatched after
That's really about it for now. Must go put away laundry. How is your day going?

So, I finally got around to watching this weeks episode and OMG!! Squeeing under the cut.
Mohinder finding out about Eden, awww. *pets him*
Hiro stealing the sword? Awesome! And actually getting the dino painting and finding out what that symbol means? Priceless.
Matt pushing Mr. Bennett against the stacks of paper and threatening him? OMGSOHOT!!!!!! (I need a better Matt icon, must go look for one.)
Ted in the shack, producing fireballs? Scary.
Peter and the new invisble hero? Only 3 days til Monday!!

Liam has found parts of his Halloween costume from last year (he was a pirate) and is playing dress up. He just came upstairs and informed me he was Jack Sparrow. *smirks* *laughs*
That is all. /random

If you are reading this post, you should feel special. This is a special filter for those I've known the longest and best here on LJ. (which is not saying much as I've not even been here a year but I digress.)
There are just certain things that I don't feel comfortable with sharing with the general public and then there are things that are even more private that I only feel comfortable sharing with you guys on this filter. Moslty things about my husband. I love him dearly and he's on my flist and even though I doubt he reads his LJ anymore, I just need a place and people to talk to about him.
And maybe some other things that I haven't felt comfortable sharing before. I don't know if I will ever share them, but I'm creating this filter because if I can't talk to my most trusted friends about them, who can I? Right?
Anyway, before I go completely babbly, I just wanted everyone who reads this that I love you all like you're family. And that means a lot to me.
No need to respond to this. I just wanted to let you all know about this. Thanks.
Katy
