[meme] let's play our childhood games

damian-lewis.com is really chock full of Damian Lewis and Life goodness: Kristin Dos Santos reports Rand Ravich confirms that Life will resume filming in May and even quotes Rand Ravich saying: "Season one was a journey into darkness, and I think in season two we're going to start a little lighter and move back into the darkness as we go through."
Why isn't it Fall yet? What I wouldn't give for a TARDIS!
Also? I'm really jealous of those who've seen the SCC finale.

tassosss tagged me so here goes:
a) List seven habits/quirks/facts about yourself
b) Tag seven people to do the same
c) Do not tag the person who tagged you or say that you tag "whoever wants to do it"
1. My desk in the office is a mess a real, real mess. Like an earthquake and tornado made a quick run through on my table and decided to visit regularly. It's why I have such a soft spot for Deputy Chief Brenda Leigh Johnson. If she can make it, so can I!
What? A girl can dream!
2. I love Chocolait, the old school version. The Magnolia(?) version. The new Chocolait is such a light weight.
3. I have a wee!car. And, I sometimes like to pretend I can drive like Jason Bourne. This scares the people around me.
4. Leather jackets! I love jackets and trench coats but since I live in a tropical country and especially with summer just around the corner that'd just be inviting heat stroke.
5. This is a bit cringe inducing but a few years back when A Beautiful Life was still playing, I almost lost my right foot because the stupid escalator sucked my foot in. I have yet to watch A Beautiful Life in its entirety.
6. I've done a bit of boxing and Capoeira. You would think with these classes I would be kickass. Alas, I am still a spaz.
7. No matter what I do, I somehow end up destroying my shoes. Whatever shoes you give me I end up walking around with the (gum? shoe flat?) flapping up and down like a tongue. I honestly don't know how I end up doing that since I just go walking and I don't walk differently than other people and yet... For I am Destroyer of Shoes!

Summary: It's Nikki Wood's fucking coat.
I think more than anything, it was Nikki Wood and Robin Wood's arc in the series that tipped me into disliking Spike. I like him still in some shallow way and I still do enjoy his attitude but I *hated* how the Mutant Enemy writing team didn't do any justice to Nikki. I hated that he still had the audacity to wear the coat. It rankled me a *lot*.
This vid is just... it's everything I felt and threw in a couple more things I know I might have missed. It's about Nikki and Robin Wood, it's about the slayers, it's about the coat and it's about Spike.
Actually, go read this for a far more insightful commentary on the vid.

La Familia by Chrissie
Millie falls ill and the Chant household is turned topsy turvy.
It's such a lovely and pitch perfect story it'salmost exactly like reading DWJ's novels with added bonus of bringing and referencing past events from other Chrestomanci novels.
