don't be dull, be fannish

I finished my Persuaders marathon! What a ride! For folks who have no idea what I was talking about these last couple of days/weeks, there is a very nice overview over in crack_van. But even after re-watching it, my most favorite episodes remain the same: A Home of One's Own and Death in the Family! This is a series to watch when you feel down and need some cheering up desperately! This show is over 30 years old, but it's still a keeper! *bounces*

And my first Alphonse Mucha jigsaw puzzle is done! It's this one, the dark-haired woman. I would take a pic of it but every time I connect my cellphone to my computer, my comp powers down :( Let me tell you, all the swirls and lines were making me all cross-eyed XD

I finished my Guilin, China jigsaw puzzle and I started working on the Richard Burns' one. Wow, the colors are so vibrant! *nerdy*

Last night, I discovered an amazing song. It's "Flutopia" by Flook. The song starts with a guitar melody, like nothing special. But then come the flutes and the guitar drops off and the drums start. And it goes on and on and on and faster and faster. In the end, you feel like the song vibrates through you! Oh wow, I need to get my hands on other stuff by Flook!

I started watching The Persuaders! from the beginning last night. This is the first time I see it in English. I'm so used to watching it in German - if you haven't seen Die Zwei (as it is called in Germany) in German, you missed an incredible experience! - so this is completely new for me. But Roger Moore and Tony Curtis rock in any language :D

If you love The Donald Strachey Mysteries and you love the movies, then go here to the nick_n_nora comm where one of the members posted an excerpt from Ron Oliver's, the movies director's, blog. My favorite part?

I am not so Pollyanna as to be unaware that I still live in a world where the sight of two men kissing elicits, at the best, nervous laughter -- and, at the worst, open hostility. But if the religious kooks out there get to believe in the sheer lunacy of virgin births, walking on water, and the resurrection of a zombie who is the son of The Giant Fairy In The Sky who controls the world all without even a shred of physical evidence, then I get to believe that love is love…no matter where you find it.

I think I'm a little bit in love with the director now! *giddy*

-> Some people have an unhealthy obsession with Jensen Ackles' freckles XD

-> I finished reading "Hellgate: Exodus" by Mel Odom. Finally! *izdead*

-> I finished translating/editing "Dragons of a Fallen Sun" by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman. Go me! *izrelieved*

-> I got my new jigsaw puzzle today! A Quiet Time by Richard Burns. I'm now working on Howling Wolves though :)

-> And I'm cold and hungry now. Off to eat dinner!
