The dogsitting went well. Well, really it was petsitting, since she also has two cats. It was kind of like a vacation without leaving home. I was able to get a fair amount of writing done (which makes me insanely happy considering I've basically written zilch for over a month), even if one of the fics I'm currently working on is not at all what I expected.

Though, on the other hand, I will be glad to sleep in my own bed tonight, since I haven't done it in over a week.

The Gin Game has been going quite well and I've been enjoying the whole experience. (Though, I feel kind of bad for admitting that I'm bored with the play.)

Did rent Her Minor Thing, which stars Christian Kane and Michael Weatherly. Enjoyed it immensely.

Had a really weird dream this morning before I woke up. In it, my family was quite well-to-do and larger than it really is (or maybe they were cousins or something, I just know we were related), and all the women were running around like crazy and taking measurements and stuff to get me fitted for a new swimsuit because I was going to be meeting Rodney McKay, who I was supposed to be hooking up with for whatever reason, at either a pool party or a water park - it was unclear and just that there was a lot of people. So, wearing my new swimsuit, I walked past him and he blatantly looked me over. Then I turned around and came back to him and said, "So, do you like what you see?"

Then I woke up.

OMG! Someone totally needs to write a Rodney at the waterpark fic!

Too bad you woke up before you heard his response. *g* Just out of curiosity, what was he wearing?

OMG. HAHAHAHA.

I'm debating which would be better - an AU kid!fic where Rodney is watching his niece and takes her to a waterpark where John is a lifeguard. Or they defeat the Wraith and after getting a chance to relax, they finish scouting the city and find an Ancient waterpark.

I'm not quite sure. Probably dark trunks and either a white tshirt, or barechested.

I think the latter would be better. Or, they're on Earth and John just has to show Ronon and Teyla a water park. And of course, Rodney is bitching the whole time about the sun and too much chlorine and OMG kids pee in the water...and John ends up manhandling him down a slide and slips and they go down together in a tangle... *g*

Lol. Thinking about the Atlantean waterpark - I can just hear Rodney bitching about how they don't know what's in the water (both in the way of animals and pollutants), the sun, and who knows what else. :-P

But I am liking your latter one. My muse and the plotbunny are sizing each other up. Will let you know the outcome.

Any chance you want to write it with me?

Yay for the writing. It always amazes and intrigues me when something I'm writing goes off in a direction I didn't plan.

When you're involved with the production of a play, it's hard to keep your interest high, I've found. That's why Broadway actors tend not to stay with a production for too long. A bored actor (or other personnel) = a less-than-stellar performance all too often.

Weird dream, yes. Too bad you woke up when you did! *grin*

Yeah, I know what you mean. And it seems like my stuff takes a sharp right turn more often than not. And usually it turns out better.

Well, usually I can keep my interest in the play, it's just that this one seems to be a really boring play. It's basically two people talking while playing gin rummy. The actors are quite good, it's just my opinion of the play. But I do enjoy hearing the audience's reaction to the play.

I know! I always wake up when the dreams get interesting.

Did rent Her Minor Thing, which stars Christian Kane and Michael Weatherly. Enjoyed it immensely.

*bangs head on desk* Ok so I actually ordered this off amazon cause it looked cute. Story was good - acting was mostly good - but it was just so darn slow! UGH!

I agree that it was slow in some parts.

And if you decide that you don't want the movie, I'll buy it off of you.

I'll let you know! Right now I'm only holding it because Michael Weatherly stared - but for as much as I didn't enjoy the movie I may be parting with it.

Will let you know.

Okay. Just thought I'd throw the offer out there. *g*

I'm suppose to be watching it with another MW fan this weekend so I'll know for sure then if I want to keep it or not. Will let you know! *g*
