Update on Kaylee: my father called them this morning, since they still weren't calling him. Seems there was a bit of a mishap and Kaylee got sent to Apple already, without their making a devis for us. The one he had on the phone was like, "oh, you're not under guarantee anymore?" *eyeroll and irritated sigh* We told them we weren't. Anyway. So the good news is that I'll probably (probably) have her back sometimes next week. The bad news is, I don't know how much it'll cost me. If it's a flaw that's on a lot of iBooks, I might not be charged. Otherwise, the first repair price is 300 and then some euros. *chokes* And that's only the first price.
Have finished watching season one of Boomtown. It was excellent up until the end. Special mention to the episode Fearless dealing with child molesters and faith in the view of such atrocities, and to the finale as well. Donnie Wahlberg is an excellent actor. Incredibly good. And as far as interesting faces go, Neal McDonough is my latest crush-that's-not. He portrays a morally ambiguous deputee DA who strives not to be like his father and in so doing becomes more and more like him. Actually, every and all character you see in there is fascinating. That show kicks major arse, people.
Have one episode of Spooks left to watch - and indeed, I'm missing the end of S2. Argh! So far it's been excellent. I especially liked the episode with the drill, that was brilliant, extremely well-acted too. The end was perfect.
Wrote a whole chapter that's supposed to stand in the middle of my Firefly/HL crossover yesterday. It was... hard. And for some reason my Methos-muse is really not cooperating these days, such a pain! I tried to write a short Methos-meets-Illyria fic yesterday (can you just imagine the brilliant dialogue?) except I couldn't write the old man. Thankfully, he didn't appear all that much in the chapter I wrote. And so, yes, chapter wasn't that hard to write, it flowed quite easily, but it's afterwards that it left me feeling rather cranky because of what it was about. Characters should not be able to affect us that much.
Joey arrives on Friday evening, yay! It feels as if I hadn't seen her in ages.
