I want

I want to see this show.

I want it to be 4pm so I can start my four day weekend.

I want my cautious optimism about the success of the current hormone therapies to be thoroughly justified.

I want these perfectly faded jeans.

I want this weird twinge in my back that's lasted for three months to go away.

What do you want today?

I want somebody to clip my cat's nails.

I want a new phone on a new carrier.

I want another stack of origami paper.

I want to curl up in this sunbeam and nap.

I want to watch Elementary.

I want to watch Elementary, too!

The more I hear about it, the better it sounds. I'll probably pick it up fairly soon.

I fell out of the habit of watching it, but for a while it was the only show on regular TV that I bothered setting aside the time for. I could probably analyze the shit out of all the things that are right and wrong with the show, but we all loved it.

You just described most of the people in any fandom of any TV show, ever.

Ha! Our family seems to enjoy the type of TV series sometimes referred to as the "darkly amusing procedural."

Y'all need to watch Supernatural. At least the first two seasons.

Eldest daughter *loves* that show and has tried to get me to watch it. There's a bit more peril in it than I tend to enjoy, but I've seen portions of nearly every episode that's on Netflix because they watch it while I'm doing other things around the house. Sort of like how I end up seeing all the Eureka and Dr. Who out there as well.

Ah. Yes. There is quite a bit of Peril on that show.

NPR had a story about Supernatural yesterday. The online comments are passionate.

Oh my god I can only imagine. That fandom, man. And I'm just on the outskirts of it.

I want somebody to clip my cat's nails. WORD.

I want another stack of origami paper. I have some I'd be glad to send your way! Mostly solid colours, some with metallic patterns.

Oh, wow. Thanks.

I live in Canada. Will this be a problem?

[identity profile] chalcedonygrey.livejournal.com 2014-01-19 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
Nope! We mail things up there on a semi-regular basis. Email me w/ you address - MGraceSmith at gmail & I'll get it sent off next week!

I want to be at home listening to my other celebrity boyfriend's audio book while knitting (that would be Nick Offerman). I want to be at home watching more of The Hollow Crown. I want a really amazing cup of coffee and a warm scone with butter. I want chunky, pull-on biker boots I can afford.

Mmmmmmmm BOOTS.

I'm trying to decide if I can justify the $100+ to see Hedwig. Friends are going to try to get tickets. So torn!

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2014-01-16 06:52 pm (UTC)(link)
GOOD LUCK!

I'm thinking about flying to NYC, meet up with a friend of mine who moved out of state last year, and seeing the show, provided we can get tickets.

CRAZINESS.

[identity profile] kazoogrrl.livejournal.com 2014-01-16 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
The good kind of crazy!

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2014-01-17 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not sure we're gonna be able to pull it off, but oh man if we can...

Fun!

I want my cats' nails to automatically clip themselves.

I want some food that both sounds good and doesn't make my stomach curl up and whimper.

I want someone to post some kettlebells and a bar for cheap on Craigslist.

I want rain and warmness outside.

Re: Fun!

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2014-01-16 09:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, bb, I'm so sorry your tum is still unhappy.

We've got warm in Lawrence (well, warm for January), but no rain.

I want to f'n stop coughing.

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2014-01-17 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
I want that for you, too. *pat*pat*

[identity profile] seascribe.livejournal.com 2014-01-16 11:47 pm (UTC)(link)
FOUR DAY WEEKEND. *fist pump*

I want...a name for my cat. Also for somebody else to do my semester calendar.

I AM SO EXCITED.

I am so excited that I am preparing to go hit the used CD store so I can buy some music to listen to this weekend!

What fun naming your kitty, though! What's the frontrunner right now?

[identity profile] seascribe.livejournal.com 2014-01-17 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
Yay music!

...Renfield. *slinks away*

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2014-01-17 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
I think Renfield is a charming name for a kitty. Also, I totally have such a soft spot for Turnbull. He just means well so much. Have you ever read the fic where he and Fraser are two elite operatives and the whole bumbling thing is just a facade? Wish I remembered the name. It's pretty adorable.

[identity profile] seascribe.livejournal.com 2014-01-17 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
I haven't! If you find it again, definitely send it my way!

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2014-01-17 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
I shall! If I remember, I'll post the question to ds-ficfinders tomorrow. I'm headed out shopping now. Toodle-loo, bb!

Here it is (http://ds-flashfiction.livejournal.com/449035.html)!

Oh, hooray! Thanks!

"he and Fraser are two elite operatives"
this sounds awesome.

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2014-01-18 02:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Found it (http://ds-flashfiction.livejournal.com/449035.html)!

thanks for sharing--here is my lunchtime entertainment!

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2014-01-21 03:34 pm (UTC)(link)
It's adorable and totally SFW, too.

I want a proper vacation where I don't do anything that even remotely resembles work.

I want sexy shoes that don't hurt my feet.

I want tacos.

(And G & I were total Elementary-hating snobs because of Sherlock, but then a ton of people convinced us to watch, and I took it all back. It is it's own thing, and really good.)

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2014-01-17 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
I want a proper vacation that involves warm weather and comfortable chairs and attractive young men bringing me endless frozen, boozy drinks. Yes. I hear you.

[identity profile] msmitti.livejournal.com 2014-01-21 06:09 pm (UTC)(link)
I WANT THIS. now. So much better than 8 frickin' degrees.

I want my braces gone, my gentleman not to have to leave on Thursday, and the song I am trying to rehearse with violin and cello to actually work.

I want you to accomplish the things you want, too.

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2014-01-18 01:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, bummer about the gentleman leaving. =( Best wishes on the song coming together!

[identity profile] redheadfae.livejournal.com 2014-01-18 07:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, on the day you did this I wanted:

My books and eyeglasses so I could read.
My medications that were taken away from me.
My supplements, all also not allowed.
Something to eat that's not made of wheat or soy or is tinned veggies and peanut butter packets.
Another sheet and white leggings so I can be warm.

OTOH, what I REALLY want is to be able to eat wheat without consequences.

[identity profile] clevermanka.livejournal.com 2014-01-18 09:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that last one would be pretty spiff!
