I keep trying to watch Defiance... this week they had a stagecoach robbery and a woman with two husbands. The woman with two husbands seemed promising, but then during the stagecoach robbery the robbers decided that the black husband had a bigger penis than the white husband, so they killed him. And the woman turned out to be evil. And I don't think the two husbands loved each other, which isn't required, but I thought it would have been nice.


Supernatural was kind of boring? The angel parts I actually don't care about. The episode should have been 100% Crowley, with 1000% less whiny Sam.


Elementary was completely brilliant. Bees!

Ugh. Star Trek spoilers. Terrible. But I wasn't sure about seeing it because of Cumberbatch anyway so... eh.


I've been baking all the things. (since the weather can't seem to decide if it's going to be fucking sweltering or nearly freezing) Various breads. And I made some pastas. Very exciting.


Person of Interest has given me too many feelings. There are Nathan/Finch feelings, Reese/Finch feelings, Machine feelings, betrayal feelings, 'I love you so much I put a tracker on you' feelings... feelings about how Reese's face looks when he's told things. Ugh.

I want to roll around in this week's episode of Supernatural. It was that wonderful. Charlie. The feels. Everything.

I tried watching Defiance. I mean... I watched it all the way through... not like I couldn't finish it or anything.

It's... what it is?

Like I would have been more into it a few years ago maybe? But now it's like, we have to call cops 'law keepers', and no one makes money they 'earn', and there's two/three new alien languages and, like, six species, but everyone has only two genders and guys are fighting over girls and by the end of a two hour pilot episode we have two husband/wife 203 kid families, one boy/girl marriage, and the two "main" guy and girl characters are making eyes at two other girl and guy characters.

Like, it's really neat that you had a shiny ball that blew stuff up and maybe laser knives, but I almost couldn't see any of that past the rampant heterosexual coupling.

It's the future for fuck's sake. There has been no development in sci-fi shows where they break boundaries and I'm like like 'why...???'.

Does everyone have to be straight and attached? Double whammy overload.

And mostly white? They went out of their way to make whiter aliens.

I could also do without whiny teenage type angst and diary writing. Or we could just make the show about her leaving the town to go to Antarctica, cause that seemed like a good plan.

Actually, I could do without whiny town/people/government type angst too.


I think this will be my 'why am I watching this, all I do is complain' show now.


Why can't we have a fun sci-fi show... maybe about a pizza place or something? I don't know.


Also watched the mtv movie awards. Most of it was terrible. But I've never really listened to Tom Hiddleston talk before... and he's like really british-y? Like polite and proper and I kind of want to be like ...'oh honey, don't look at Seth Rogan taking his pants off... let me take you to a nice awards show instead'... he also hugged children, and now I feel like protecting him from the terribleness of america. idk.

Are people seriously upset that Community did an episode with puppets? And are like 'boo, I can't believe there was singing'... like that's a completely odd thing for Community to do? Really? What world am I living in... *shakes head*


How am I supposed to wait until next January to find out what's gonna happen with everyone on Being Human US? So much went down. Ugh, Aidan, you make bad parental choices. Sally, no. Poor Josh and Nora. Everything!


*whining about life... ignore*
Our car broke down two Saturdays ago and we had to get it expensively towed in to have the entire fuel system replaced. Huge fucking shock, no warning, and apparently it's because gas companies are putting more/stronger ethanol into the cheapest gas and it's eating through all the parts now and what would have lasted 5+ years is only lasting less than two. I guess? It was all torn up. And now my anxiety over using up nearly all the money we had and having to beg someone (who's super sweet about it, but still) to upfront us some money on an order (when we haven't even delivered on some of the orders that we got prepaid to fix the fucking transmission yet) is manifesting itself as a lump in my throat because I can't get my muscles to relax. It's like I've leveled up from the rolling pit of doom in my stomach that I usually get.
And to top it off one gallery who usually orders something around this time won't e-mail me back and I just found out another gallery that usually buys closed down this winter. Plus, I'm still cold e-mailing places that aren't interested or who have ridiculous judging demands... why do they want a resume? I'm not applying for a job! They just need to decide if the work fits and if they can sell it for twice what they pay for it. That's it! And one e-mailed me back and was like 'I know you're work! but our customers don't really buy primitive or country items' (which our stuff isn't) and I went and looked at her facebook page and it's all fucking country and primitive shit and I'm like 'Lady, I don't even know what you're talking about. Maybe you're confused about who here is making felt christmas ornaments?' and it's not like I want to be in her gallery, but she also deals with some of these other folk artists and I really want a piece of the buyers that she's got a corner on. Damn.

Blergh.

Let's see...

I can't handle my Benny feels.

All I got out of Person of Interest was that Reese was totally jealous of Finch liking that super cute nerd girl.

(mostly because I was also semi watching New Girl and The Mindy Project at the same time. Both fairly hilarious.)

Elementary is awesome.

Tonight is Grimm. Which is going fine, except, still, no one will tell Juliette anything. *sigh*

Sobbed through Being Human. Can't deal with next week. Oh man.


Also, apparently Doctor Who is happening but not here in the us... so that's going on and I don't care that much?

Fandom March Madness is killing me.

Tonight's Elementary made me want to roll around in a field of flowers. It was so perfect and lovely and wonderful.

Person of Interest was lovely (well, I'm not entirely sure what went on with Carter... I missed some of that) until the last scene and then it destroyed my heart. Finch, bby, Reese was totally offering himself up to you. He wants to grow old with you. You and Bear. *sobs* Reese's sad eyes kill me.

Doing the 'I called it' dance about werewolf blood on Being Human US. Well.. I called it on tumblr. Even if I did want it to be more dramatic. I know they have a lot to get through this season, but I wish they'd like somethings linger. *sigh*

Oh god, Sally. And Nick. And Stevie next week. Creepy and terrible and awesome.

Ugh, Being Human US. You're killing me. Sally... Josh... Aidan... *sobs* Down hill, full tilt.


In other news... I complain about art stuff. Ignore it.

I hate cold e-mailing galleries. I hate looking for the galleries first, because it's wading through things that are either not actually galleries, or are too low end and shouldn't be called galleries, or are too frickin fancy for what we do. It's like a Goldielocks thing. And then if I find one that seems right, I have to dig through their website to see if they're consignment only (which is a horrible concept that should die... and it's always a 50/50 split... and if they'd just buy some of the stuff I'd have no problem consigning something more expensive and riskier, but they want none of the risk at all), or if they have some weird artist submission deal where I'd have to basically print out the entire website and mail it to them because for some reason they can't just look at it on their screens... and then no one e-mails back, or they do e-mail back but it's to say that they already have too much stuff (understandable) or that they only do consignment and would like to try some stuff for free (which... they should put somewhere on their site... and it's always the really fancy ones too). Ugh.
And the internet is no help what so ever with advice about what galleries want because apparently galleries want artists to all be friends with one another so that they can just ask other artists if the know anyone instead of looking at submissions. And they want you to be their very best friend. And write them handwritten thank you notes. And not come into their gallery unless you make an appointment. And not sell your stuff anywhere else ever because what if someone saw it somewhere else they're not going to buy it then because it's not super duper special... which is bull because people buy shit all the time that they can get in a million places.

I just... why isn't this treated like a business. It's like gallery owners get it in their heads that since they're being "artistic" that somehow it stops being an exchange of goods and services. Like look how fancy and important we are. You should be so grateful that we can afford store space that enlightens everyone who walks through our doors and aren't you glad we'll display your little things for you. We can't afford to pay you until three months after it sells. That's how things work.
