lizbee: (Avatar: Team Fire Nation)
It's not that I don't love you and all, but it's really hot at the moment, and there's nothing more horrible than typing with sweaty palms. Much better to spend time sitting in my armchair drawing bad Avatar fan art like this.

All this sitting around means that I'm racing through my All-Of-Star-Trek-Except-The-Crap-Bits-Oh-God-Do-I-Have-To-Watch-Enterprise? rewatch. I've just finished season 6 of TNG, and am a few episodes into DS9. Just in time for the existence of [livejournal.com profile] ds9_rewatch!

Re: TNG, all I have to say is that, wow, season 6 was a good year for Troi. Not just because she got a meaty starring role in "Face of the Enemy" (ROMULANS, HOW MUCH DO I LOVE YOU? LOTS.) but also some fun supporting things, like playing the Mysterious Stranger in Alexander's Western holonovel. These are all good things, of course, but mostly I associate season 6 with Good Troi Time because they stopped using that horrible hairpiece, and got her out of the unflattering and cleavage-tastic "counselling" outfits, and into a proper Starfleet uniform. Seriously, I think Marina Sirtis may have been the only actress who was actually built for that thing, so it's a shame it took so long before she got to wear it.

Srs meta: it's what I'm here for.

Otherwise, my [community profile] white_lotus fic is with the betas, and I'm kind of a bit sad that I have only just now become obsessed with Mai/Aang, because if my timing had been a bit better, I'd have requested it. It probably says something profound that the Emo Boy/Nice Girl pairing of Zutara leaves me absolutely cold, but I really groove on the Trickster Hero Boy/Emotionally Repressed Morally Ambiguous Girl pairing. Or I just enjoy AUs. It could go either way, really.

Real life-wise, work continues to happen, so that's nice. I got my full birth certificate, so I can apply for a passport, and I have all of $50 in my Saving For America Account. Don't look at me like that; I also spent $150 on a bike this pay. More will be saved.

Oh yeah, I bought a bike, and put it together, and went for a ride, and promptly remembered how unfit I am. I can remember a time when riding a bike was more fun than physical torture, but that was 13 years ago.

In other news, I fear I may have developed an addiction to Korean barbecue. SEND HELP SOJU.
