watching and reading

1. since i last posted, i have been watching tenipuri really fast. i've finished the senbatsu and rikkai arcs and now there are only about fifty episodes left till the end of the series. i have fifteen days to watch them all before we leave for paris. i want to be finished by then because even though i plan to burn eps and bring them along to watch with cuddlepint, we'll have to start at the beginning there. anyway, in the last two days i watched about thirty episodes, which is near the limit of how much tv or anything i can stand to watch in that period of time. it's something about my brain that greatly prefers reading to watching, i guess.

2. which brings me to reading! i am pretty much out of tenipuri fic, with the exception of rikkai (which is because until yesterday i hadn't seen the rikkai arc, but i'm not enthusiastic about it anyway). i mean, i haven't gone looking for fic that breaks my otps (that would be tezuryo and golden pair and silver pair), but i've methodically hunted down everything i could find for a lot of pairings. my del.icio.us bears witness to all the reading i have done in this fandom - silver pair, oshitari/gakuto, atobe/jiroh (and i'm still baffled by this pairing since it seems to be based completely in fanon, but it's so funny that i can't help liking the idea of it a lot anyway, even if in practice it's not particularly good), kamio/shinji, mizuki/yuuta. i even went hunting jyousei shounen and rokkaku fic the other day, and there was hardly any. i think i am truly at the bottom of the barrel (aside from rikkai, of course). this is sad, since reading my way through communities and archives is a habit that i kind of rely on in between doing other things, like reading and writing seriously and watching things and reloading my friendslist. it's almost a compulsion.

so does anyone know what the weather in paris is likely to be like in about 15 days?
