things i'm lovin'

  • The latest Dilbert plot about the new team leader who spells his name like Jesus but it's pronounced Hay-soos. (see [livejournal.com profile] dilbertdaily)

  • The snow is melting. It's 8°C! It's sunny! Fuck yes! Maybe within a month it will be spring! But don't hold your breath!

  • Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. If I weren't too lazy to do all the work I would totally make a Sarah-centric vid to the Gounod Ave Maria (I have an awesome new recording of this by Kokia), plus a Cameron-centric vid to Gummiband by kent. It's a good thing I'm too lazy because there isn't a very big population of Swedish-speaking vid watchers: but it's an unbeatable temptation because their (well, his, because they're all written by Jokke) lyrics are just so much better!

  • Bones. I already loved it, but I've started rewatching it again. (Last time I started to marathon, I took a break and watched Heroes, Poirot, and TSCC instead.)

  • The endless quantity of goodfic (mixed in with badfic, but that can be fun too) available in media fandom if you look. The way I can be blown away as if for the first time by stories unearthed in my own recs page. The way fandoms I thought were dead can stir my obsession again with unexpected new stories.

  • Bran cereal with milk. It's as sweet and nutty and crunchy and delicious as a dessert. Who'd have thought something so simple would be tastier than the average restaurant-bought Finnish dessert?

  • Coloured opaque tights. I bought some red and grey ones two weeks ago, but I'm still after a purple pair and a green pair at least.

  • The way cats smell, and the way they smell better when they're warm or happy, and the way they smell even better than that when they're warm and happy.

  • The way my baby loves me! I read out loud from [livejournal.com profile] unnecessaryquot a lot, and just now she said in response, "Oh, I brought you a present!" and tossed me a little packet of silica gel that reads DESSICANT SILICA GEL THROW AWAY "DO NOT EAT". That's true love, dude.

I'm so with you on the coloured opaque tights. They've been popular here for the last few months and I have a pair a few shades darker than fuschia and a gray pair, but I really want mustard!

Mustard'll be hard - that's a last fall colour, and they're into new colours for spring. Opaque tights've been on the way for the last couple of years - it started in '05 in music video land and fringe fashion - but I think they've just finally trickled down to wear-on-the-street-every-day fashion. I had some trouble finding the red ones, but I think it was because everyone's sold out. Green is top of the list now, though. I'm dying for forest green tights to wear with my turquoise dress to create a combination of
