turpsBandom big bang continues to delight me. While I don't read all the pairings I love seeing all the different stories be posted, long stories of so many different kinds, and so much beautiful art and creative mixes, too. I keep saying it but fans are the best ♥
What I also like is that the stories being posted are so varied and there are no big clumps of one pairing all at once. I don't know if that's by design or not but in my head the mods have a spread sheet working it all out. &them;
Yesterday I baked with James. A chocolate banana bread loaf and brownies. Though the brownies are very rich, on the side of being too much so as we added melted Cadbury's niblets as well as chunks of chocolate. Which in theory sounds lovely, in reality one small square and you're done.
We have a mouse D: I looked around yesterday and Pansy was running around with it in her mouth. Sadly in the kerfuffle she let it go and it ran away. While I'm not scared of mice themselves, I hate when they get in the house.
I saw The Avengers at last and think Clint is all kinds of awesome. I'm not actively searching out fic at the moment but I'm sure it will happen.
Shows I'm really enjoying at the moment. Suits and Teen Wolf. TW is the best. This season really has amped up the awesome even with the sad lack of another homoerotic werwolf fight set to Destroya. I'm also still really liking Revenge and am on season 4 of Parks and Rec. Which means soon I'll have no eps left to watch D:
I'm reading A Feast of Crows and man, it's hard going. New characters everywhere and a sad lack of the ones I actually care about. In contrast on the kindle I'm reading the last in the Rainbow High trilogy which is ridiculous, easy reading.
The homeworking prep is still ongoing. Tomorrow someone is coming to fit special phone lines upstairs so no doubt I'll be sitting downstairs muttering about them not disrupting my net access.
Had a long talk with my sister last night which yet again reinforced the idea that mam's either going to eventually end up banned from every pub in town, in jail or in hospital. It's just a case of what happens first.
And after that mini catch up, I'm off to finish reading Gala's BBB before tidying the tip.

The banana loaf is very nice, though it is weird seeing it brown and not the usual plain cake colour. But, it tastes good and that's the important thing.
The mouse hasn't been seen for over a day now so I'm hoping that means it got back out. Fingers crossed anyway.
Well I wasn't into the Avengers at all until I actually watched. Apart from reading Arsenic's stories anyway. Then I did watch and it's obvious what the draw is. Not that I have any desire to actually plunge into the fandom. I like where I am now :)
I'm loving Revenge so much. It's one of those shows that seem to go past really fast, like you start watching one moment and the next it's over. That's always a sign of something good.
Yep. Though #3 is a pdf and the text is tiny and can't be magnified without scrolling the page so when I'm reading I'm squinting like crazy. But it's worth it. They're nice, entertaining books which is what I need after battling through A Feast for Crows.
Thank you!
