Janie Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 I'm anal but not that anal. This landscaping thing happened the other day. It has been raining so much that the boulders are probably doing the backstoke. My backyard has been replaced by a rice paddy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMWriter Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 This is a really silly thing to be upset over, but I'm so frustrated that nearly all of my favourite broadcast dramas are getting canceled!! Aaauugh!! Dx It took shows like Star Trek (TNG, DS9, and ENT) and X-Files and other great dramas and sci-fis at least a couple seasons to get their acts together. But networks these days don't even give them that kind of a chance (things like Heroes excepted). I have a tendency of getting emotionally involved with my dramas (hey, it comes with writing fiction! :C ) and then it crushes me when they get canceled. It's like reading a book and then suddenly having it snatched away from you without any prior warning, and on a cliffhanger too. Just.. AUGH. Production industry?! What are you doing?!?! There will be no sci-fi on one of these days! And I can't wait forever for Fringe to return! o^o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janie Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 (edited) The Rush show is tomorrow night. I was going to go with a TRF member (HowItIs) but couldn't because of an out-of-town guest and then, to make matters worse, last night, I spent hours at the hospital because I managed to break a bone in my foot and now I'm in this boot cast thing. Sad. So sad. ETA: However, on the upside, I have killer pain meds. Edited July 1, 2011 by Janie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
