* I am starting to panic about a deadline, because my writing feels off, and I can't think of an original idea to save my life. It's particularly hard for me, because I can't write porn, and I keep thinking everything I've written would be better with porn in it. Porn = Magic.
* Last night, J said to me: "You take two great things, Danny Glover and bacon, put 'em together, and you got a CLUB." Apparently, I'm the president of said bacon and Danny Glover club. And really, you wonder why I'm this weird?? Hell, that's normal talk from him.
* Sci-fi has become our default channel. Yesterday, we watch Blood Surf, about a man-eating saltwater croc and extreme surfers, and my god. It was possibly the worst movie I've ever seen. And yet, Sci-fi continues to own my heart.
* Who do you think would win in a fight, Teal'c or Ronon?
* Who else simply adores Jonas Quinn? I mean, he seriously kicks ass. He's like the smartest man ever but he's so... nonchalant about it. Like, eh, you could do this and this and it'll fix this and SAVE THE WORLD, don't you think? And he strolls around and has these little smiles like YAY, I did something good! and all he wants is a little pat on the head from Jack. I thought the season without Daniel would suck, but Quinn is just wonderful. Plus, he's Parker Lewis, and that show rocked.
* With these DVD fic commentaries going around, I thought fleetingly of asking if there's any interest with me, but then I realized that I have no idea how to go about it, since I'm not entirely sure where half the stuff I write actually comes from. My mind is a scary, scary place. I think this is partly J's fault. But still, feel free to ask for one if you want, and I'll see what I can do. Or not. Because, and I freely admit this, the idea is merely a product of my horrible writer's block-slash-deadline panic.

There is Ernie, the clubhouse, Rodney and John sledding in 'Ring Out Wild Bells' and several other ideas in in your fic that are all very original. But beyond that, I think one of your greatest strengths in writing is your ability to take an idea (say, Wierd Science or Harry Potter) and completely turn it upside down, sideways and inside out to create something unique.
"...It's particularly hard for me, because I can't write porn, and I keep thinking everything I've written would be better with porn in it."
Hmmm...okay, honestly...okay, okay, so porn is good, (now everyone is staring at me and going 'duh') but it isn't all there is. You write some very...romantic scenes. Some of the moments kind of sneak up on the reader but they all fit well within the particular world you create. and you write some stories where I don't think -porn- would realy fit in well.
"Sci-fi has become our default channel. Yesterday, we watch Blood Surf"
*bangs head against wall*
Sometimes I think my husband would live on the Sci-Fi channel...he tivo's almost all the movies, no matter how awful, then he tells me it's no fun unless I watch them with him.
Teal'c or Ronon - Ronon
Teal'c or Teyla - undecided
Jonas Quinn - sweet, but sadly not Daniel

Sci-fi is so much fun to mock *nods*
Jonas Quinn - sweet, but sadly not Daniel I think since I've gotten to know him through reruns, which are interspersed with Daniel eps, I wasn't ever deprived of Daniel, and thus could enjoy Jonas more :)
