I have been reading The Last of the Mohicans ALL DAY, and I can take it no longer.

FYI: While I don't know what pomegranates have to do with the holidays (unless we're going Greek and refering to Persephone, Demeter, and the changing of the seasons), the makers of 7-Up decided to make a holiday version of said soft drink with said flavor, and lured me in with their wily marketing schemes. (In other words, I was getting groceries this morning, and it was on the shelf, and I said, "Oooh, that sounds tasty!") Anyway, it's really quite bad, and I recommend against it.

Ways to know you've been spending too much time in front of the computer watching TV and on the futon reading for class: your butt starts hurting. Rather badly. Although possibly this is related to the annual, "Oh, it's fall, and the weather's changing! I must remind you of that time six years ago when you slipped on some ice and broke/cracked/bruised/made me hurt for six months straight!" thing my tailbone does. Slightly different place, though. Although it seems to have expanded today to include basically the waist through the thigh...

Enough about my butt.

Re: the TV: I...am going to guess that "Two Bodies in the Lab" spawned 1.2 million fanfics. Just a guess, mind you. Awww. (But, for the record, just the kind of thing I do not need in the hour before I go to bed is to be shocked with an exploding refrigerator. Just sayin'.)

Zack is almost human! He's much less creepy now. I think he started using vocal inflection or something. And they finally used a song that didn't suck in the desert episode. Yay Patty Griffin for saving us from bad rock songs.

My medium-length paper this semester got canceled (HURRAH!), so I feel slightly less guilty about watching, um, 17 episodes in less than a week. Soon I'll get to the end of S1, and have to rely on Netflix for the rest until I get to S4, so the madness has an ending in sight.

(I kind of want to go searching for a Bones icon, but I don't want to spoil myself more than I already am. (I, er, may have been trying to find out via Wikipedia if they film on location, and in doing so found out certain things about Zach, Angela, and Hodgins. And I perhaps have a vague idea about something concerning Brennan's parents. But if there's anything ELSE left to surprise me, I'm going to try and make it until I see it on the show.) Perhaps I'll just make one in all that copious free time I have right now...)

tarzanic gave me some icons to talk about ( below the cut )
