serynI'm doing better today. What a difference a day makes. Someone needs to come up with a non-swallowed antibiotic. I was taking the narcotic pain pills because I knew something really hurt but it was belly cramps and I was too out of it to realize it wasn't just in my head. That's extremely lame.
I'm not well by any means. TV watching is kind of beyond me. But mostly I'm just hungry in a way that drinkable food doesn't satisfy.
I read some more k-books. Shit from Ellora's Cave. I'm going to add them to the magic bookmark to be filtered.
I really dislike reading D/s stuff when it's not roleplay. I think it's wonderful that there are women who are so confident in themselves and their femininity that they've gone completely dominant in their everyday lives and they like playing at submissiveness---at least fictionally. The EC shit from today was women who can't get off without being actively hurt by their sexual partners. Including anonymous unprotected sex. Because they're career women and they have to make real decisions so they need this to get off. WTF. Apparently feminism was good enough to get them the jobs they wanted but it ruins sex? It wasn't good fiction either because there's no explanation how someone could go from never trying this to accepting life-endangering acts. I miss fanfiction and its warning labels.
The current state bookmark searching for free Amazon Kindle books that aren't public domain, excerpts, samples, religious, etc. As usual caveat emptor because Amazon's price database gets fuckups. If it doesn't say it's free, it isn't, even if it matches this search. (I haven't made the EC change yet):
I watched some Rizzoli & Isles. meh. I feel a little sorry for all the people who left Law & Order and thought they were going to have great careers, because none of them have made it anywhere. (Angie Harmon is Rizzoli, a hard-bitten Boston detective without an education... it's really a reach for her compared to her legal whiz role before. The first two sentences were actually connected.) And it really seems like her whole life would be vastly improved if she'd fucking moved out of Boston. Her family is ludicrous and they hold her back by being stupid and intrusive and making her look bad at work. I like the Isles character, but it's kind of like DS9, in that the situations with Isles are limited to what comes to her. She's not a forensics coroner like Quincy before there was CSI who actually collect evidence. So she's mostly in the lab. I've seen 3 episodes and she's been held hostage in all of them, in her lab, in police headquarters, which makes the Boston PD look like they should all be fired and a brand new force hired entirely from somewhere else where they don't grow 'em stupid.
I also read the second Collegium book by Mercedes Lackey (last Sunday, before the lameness), but that deserves its own post. It takes her years and years and years to write more Valdemar, I can at least bitch about it in its own space.
