I fly like paper, get high like planes

*** First, I'm going to whine briefly at you all; so begging your pardon: The only thing I managed to get done this weekend was finishing my Christmas shopping. *headdesk* I still need to buy more food and clean the house and wrap things and get everything ready. I always do this to myself; let things pile up and then not know where to start and then sit in the middle of it all, being useless until the last possible moment. *sigh* And I've spent entirely too much money already. :/

Whatever; I'll get it all done, I always do. I just sort of want Christmas to be over now.

*** I officially love Merlin. I've watched the entire first series and it's completely lovely. And I think I'm shipping all four main characters in just about every combination. :P Which means that I need to be directed to some fanfic. Anyone care to point me in the right direction of some Arthur/Merlin, Arthur/Gwen, and Gwen/Morgana to start? ;)

...not that I should be thinking about anything fannish until after Christmas.

*** I did no writing this weekend, which means out of the ten or eleven Christmas prompts I took, I only managed to write two. Which, actually, not the worst thing in the world, because it's 200% more than I usually manage to write when I take prompts. Yay progress?

*** I'm at work now, and I work tomorrow, but I'm off after that until January 4th!! *dances*

What network is/was this on? Other people on my flist have raved about it.

It's actually on BBC1 in the UK -- I'm not sure if it's popped up on BBC America yet.

Actually, I think NBC picked up the rights to the first series because it was so successful, and it's going to start airing stateside in the spring. :D

HEEEE. MERLIN. SO BAD, YET SO GOOD. XD XD XD

[heather11483.livejournal.com]

*giggles* Exactly! I feel like the writing could have been so much better, especially in the first half of the series, but I love the characters so much I don't even care. ;)

I KNOW RIGHT?!!? I am so much a bigger sucker for characters than I am for plot. I think that's the reason I keep watching things like QAF:US over and over - characters = so interesting; plot = SO FAIL. AHAHAHAHAAH.

OMG I HOPE YOU FIND MERLIN FIC AND THEN ARE INSPIRED TO WRITE B/C IF YOU WRITE MERLIN FIC I WILL DIE WITH JOY. XD XD

Dude, Merlin is totally one of those fandoms where canon plots are weak, but the characters each have such interesting potential and backstories that I know the fic will be 10000000% more fleshed out than the writing in the show itself. So I'll definitely be on the lookout. XD

And hee! What pairings do you like? I might try writing something after the hols.
