I saw an invite to join a community that involved writing a 100 word piece a day based on a one word prompt. I thought at the time, maybe it would be a way to revive my muse. I did produce a little piece, beyond the 100 word count, but little none the less. Anyway it worked on that count but on the down side now my LJ inbox is being spammed with replies to comments I *made* on all the other communities. Anyone know how to fix that.
So, here is the little piece I did, the prompt was 'cheese' . Had Camy in mind when I did this and she provided some wonderful artwork to compliment *she's the BOMB!*
I'm a girl...chocolate of course. But I have a tendency to go for sweet and salty so chips are generally added to the mix or I make my own mix with chocolate and nuts!
Ok I just re-watched SGA 's Season 4 ep MISSING and it made me rethink on some things and go *HUH?* on others.
First - Shep asking about Teyla's hot date. His look after she headed though the gate. He looked as if he really was trying to find out for more personal reasons if that was the case. And why did Shep just happen to being hanging out just as they were heading out anyway? Inquiring(and shippy) minds want to speculate.
Second - Teyla had some opportunities after her first fight with the bad guys to pick up some serious weapons other than her hunting knife and stick. I mean she killed one of the guys with his own sword like knife why didn't she keep that stuff? Okay, I know why...TPTB wanted to make Teyla's fight a more *against* the odds type of thing...I get that, but seriously the woman is smart. If she knows to take them down to give them an edge wouldn't she know to keep the weapons to increase the edge. GIVE ME A BREAK!
Third - JENNIFER - STOP THE WHINING ALL READY! I think Rachel rolled her eyes in this more than any ep ever and I was right there with her. I can honestly say I think there was a point there that she really wanted to tap Jennifer firmly upside the head aka Ronon/Rodney. And Jewel was nominated for this part....go figured.
Fourth - I never realized that Jen thought it was Rodney that Teyla was involved with. How did I miss that? Was that Jenn's own desires voicing themselves there? A little foreshadow of what was coming down the road? But really....RODNEY!?!
Fifth - That last scene between Shep and Teyla, his look when she spoke of finding who had took her people. You could see he didn't like where Teyla was going and makes me wonder just how ruthless Teyla would have been in the search for her people if the baby had not been an issue. I for one was happy with the storyline allowance for Racheal's condition but it would have been interesting to see the darker side of her and how that would have played out in her relationship with Shep.
OK...that's it for me. This ep was such an example of how really good SGA could be because of the quality of performers like Luttrell but also how lame because of the inconsistent writing of TPTB. But that's JMO.
Any other observations I missed or you think worthy. Let's talk.
I listen to soft music to sleep to. So first thing, the CD goes off the radio onto my favorite station. A little rock n roll to start my day and morning station chat gets me moving as I do my other morning routines.
The radio station here is really promoting Joe's new movie, Change of Plans. I'm so excited about this because it is being aired to a large audience which will really give Joe the chance to shine.
Showing Jan 8 on Fox. Here's a link about the movie and a really cute pic of Joe with cast.
