...way out on the corner of fucked up and evil...

When Dexter first came out, I watched a couple of episodes, got thoroughly annoyed with the constant monologuing, and went back to watching Profit on DVD. After all, naked, eyeliner-wearing Adrian Pasdar versus Micheal C Hall in chinos isn't much of a contest.

Lately I've been watching a bit more, and it's almost... not terrible. I kind of like Rita, which considering I would happily have punched Julie Benz in the face every time she popped up on Angel, says a lot. I like that one police dude who wears a hat. The children are tolerable. I sort of ship Deb/Doakes, but I've read one of the books where Doakes has a super-horrible fate, so I'm not getting attached.

Also, beautiful James Remarr is in it being beautiful and playing Dexter's dead dad. He shows up and gives Dexter sound advice, like STOP TRYING TO BE FRIENDS WITH OTHER SERIAL KILLERS. Which Dexter doesn't ever seem to listen to. Right now he's friends with... dude, I don't remember his name, but he was the president on the West Wing after Bartlett. Anyway, they're little serial killing best mates and James Remarr is all like, NO DEXTER STOP TRYING TO HAVE A SERIAL KILLER BFF and Dexter is like WHATEVER JAMES REMARR YOU'RE NOT THE BOSS OF ME and now the president dude is going crazy or something, I don't know, but I guess the moral of this story is if you are a serial killer, probably you shouldn't hang out with other serial killers because it never seems to go well.


Hmm, other things... I finally started reading Ghost Story. I was totally willing to let the whole monkey-ghost thing with the lemur(e)s slide, but what really got me was the bit about being lonely in a "Byron-esque needs-a-swimming-buddy way". Since, you know, that was Shelley and all.

Also, none of these were my fault:







Sadly, there is no option for putting a little key around your pony, or dressing him in a bartender outfit. I would totally have gone there otherwise.

You guys, I just finished watching the last season of the West Wing and it was so good I think my face might melt off from the joy of it! In fact, I think the only way it could possibly have been improved is if there was an episode where President Bartlett got Puppet!Cancer and they had to orchestrate a massive cover-up while trying to find a cure. And even then, Puppet!Cancer is not very West Wing-y, so it's probably best they didn't*. Except now I'm all, "Hmm, I think I shall watch Moonlight," and you know how Moonlight is actually not a very good show anyway? It's even worse when you watch it after three weeks of beautiful Josh the West Wing.

ARGH OH MY GOD SOMEBODY BUY ME STUDIO 60 I AM GETTING AIDS FROM LACK OF JOSH! *rolls around on the floor foaming at the mouth*

*Although, come on, that would rock! CJ would crack at the press podium and come clean and the reporters would all be like, "Whatevs, CJ, you could at least make up a convincing lie!" Josh would hide under his desk and pretend the whole thing wasn't happening. Will would be confused and slightly intimidated and have pockets filled with olives. Toby would yell at everyone and hurl rubber balls with reckless abandon (so, no change). Then at the end Margeret would be revealed as a secret Communist puppet spy who masterminded the whole plot and everyone would be like, GASP! Leo would shake his head sadly as they dragged her away in handcuffs.

Do not even try to pretend you are suprised.

I'm trying to decide what weirds me out most about the West Wing, now that Rob Lowe and his strange face have gone to travel the world and maybe learn to grow a manly beard, and I can't decide if I'm more freaked out about Glinda being Toby's new Gal Friday or the fact that Lucas Buck is the Vice President. Like, every time the President has an MS attack or Toby's crazy ex-wife crazily refuses to re-marry him because she's crazy or some handsome Republican rogue tries to steal one of Josh's many whores, I keep expecting to hear a door slam off-screen and then the camera spins 'round and Lucas will be standing there brimming with his trademark genial menace and it never happens.

Actually, yeah, the Lucas thing is weirder than the Glinda thing.

ETA:
In other, boring news, passport turned up, leak is fixed, central heating works and apart from a lingering wet-dog smell from the carpet, flat is livable again.

Dudes, I am really confused by Rob Lowe's face. It's like, sometimes I look at him and I think he's really hot, and sometimes I look at him and I think he looks effeminate and pointy, and mostly when I look at him these days I think of the Orange advert. You know how people reckon the type of man you're attracted to varies depending on where you are in your menstrual cycle? Rob Lowe's face is the exact example of that. Like, when I'm at my most fertile, I demand everyone be burly and unshaven and capable of wrasslin' lions with their facial hair, and that's when I look at Rob Lowe and go "Pfft!" And then a week later when I'm slightly more sane and likely to attach higher value to a decent paycheque than the ability to kill wild animals with one's moustache, I look at him and go, "Hmmm."

Anyway, the point is that Rob Lowe should man the fuck up, because his ambiguously girly-hot face is affecting my ability to enjoy West Wing porn, and we can't have that. God damn you, Sam. Go pistol-whip some Republicans or something.
