{ so I pushed you a little bit more. }
Apr. 18th, 2007 04:12 pmAnother productive day, and sunny, too, without being sweltering. Double lecture on reading romance literature after which I went to the charity shop and bought a Mills and Boon book called Taken by the Sheik. Then read the whole thing. That's an hour and a half of my life that I will never get back. (For those not paying attention: it's for tomorrow's seminar; low brow romance lit.) I have more to say about today's lecture and what it means to write female protagonists in their various constructions but frankly, it's much too pretty a day for me to go there just yet. Maybe tonight.
This evening The Flatmate and I are going to see Sunshine. EXCITED. Because, yes, gorgeous cinematography, and MICHELLE YEOH. I've been yenning for this one for a while now.
Just to make the fangirling complete,
hires_hotties had pictures of Thandie at the IWC Da Vinci Launch Party where she performed in a short play. She's so tiny and pretty; I've heard that the performance was excellent, too.

For those of you following the saga of the posters: both The Rat Pack and The Men Eating Lunch Above New York fell on me last night. So I was all 'fuck it', and just pinned them up instead.

I have about ten more drabbles to write and then I can post at last. I think I have enough to work on my
numb3rs_het fic now, and some inspiration for the
femgenficathon one, too. And I'm thinking about running the MFFF again just because it was fun. So: all go.

I still have Friday's Raines to finish, as well as the first three episodes of Drive. Am feeling oddly apathetic towards actual fannish pursuits.
