Tired. Warning, crankiness ahead.

[thegrrrl2002]

Tired and cranky. Yup, that's me. I feel like I'm coming down with a cold, or a sinus infection. Took a decongestant last night, and it screwed up my sleep something awful. I felt so restless that I couldn't stay in bed, even though I was half-asleep. I had to get up and walk around. Then I fell asleep on the couch, and woke up all confused and discombobulated at 2:00 am.

I did manage to get back to sleep, but I'm exhausted, my glands still hurt, and my legs are achy from exercising.

And could someone please tell me why the hell the table function in Microsoft Word defaults to top alignment for the text? Why would I want my words floating around up there? It looks ridiculous. Why doesn't it default to all the exact properties that I want? And why is it September already? Where did the summer go to? It's too soon for fall. Because then it will be winter. And how come aren't people writing me Sheppard/McKay smut? Is that too much to ask? Come on, just a snippet will do me. Really.

::sighs::

On a brighter note, I watched more "Firefly" last night--"Trash". Mmmm, naked Mal. Just thinking about that ep makes me smile, if only a little.

Coffee. Maybe coffee will help.

Is it time to go home yet?

Uncertain of how to write the full on snark potential possible between the two of them?

Hee! That may be part of it. It makes me hesitate. I need to see some more eps. Rodney is sort of neurotic, too, and I'd hate to make him wussy neurotic. I prefer aggressively neurotic, like how gypsy has written him.

And I loved the snarking in "Underground". "You slay me." *g* I think it's the beginning of a beautiful relationship on-screen relationship. One that will encourage us to fill in what happens off-screen.

I think I'll watch the rest of FireFly tonight, although that will make me sad, because there won't be any new ones to look forward to! And the movie is sooooo far off. ::sighs:: I dig all the characters, too, without reservation. And yeah, when was the last time that happened?

Rodney is sort of neurotic

Wow, now there's an understatement and a half. It's part of what I love actually - he acts like how I or most of my friends would act in similar situations.

I think it's the beginning of a beautiful relationship on-screen relationship.

I hope so. I'm enjoying it so much, and it flows so naturally somehow.

You know, if you figure the Atlantis team in relation to SG-1, Sheppard = Jack (military, team leader) and McKay = Daniel (civilian scientist who doesn't have to keep rank and so feels free to comment). So the team dynamic is similar to J/D...

[Of course, Ford = Sam, Teyla = Teal'c in this scenario, so J/S people who like that dynamic will accidentally become slashers of S/F and J/T people will become shippers for S/T. If it's all about the relationship dynamics...]

And the movie is sooooo far off.

True, but at least you'll have had to wait less time than those of us who watched it on TV. The pain!

Relationships...

And yet McKay is sufficiently unDaniel-like, because he's also Sam-like, what with the science and all, which confuses Sheppard just as much as it confuses Jack. Only Sheppard bitches at McKay when he doesn't understand, unlike Jack.

Weir, on the other hand, is a rather Daniel-like, only she's Hammond-ish in her responsibilities.

Oh heck, they should all just fuck like bunnies.

Yeah, you know I realized last night after I replied that I was pretty much talking out me ass since, while all the character traits as a group are the same (presumably because that's the dynamic that works), the traits are parceled out between characters so there's no one character that directly parallels another. But I had already shut off my computer for bed, so I just figured time to chalk another one up to the idiot team of one.

Only Sheppard bitches at McKay when he doesn't understand, unlike Jack.

Yeah, why is that anyway? Because Jack is willing to snark on everyone, pretty much, but he gives Sam a free pass. Right now, Sheppard seems inclined to snark at McKay, poor Steve the really dead now VampWraith, and maybe Weir, but he's giving Ford and Teyla a free pass. If he starts snarking at Ford as well, I'm going to go kick writer ass because women have just as much right to be snarked at as men. And it would go a long way to help show Sam's (and Teyla's) sense of humor to be snarked on and to snark back. Much as I love her in general (romantic issues aside), Sam needs to be funnier.

Then again, most characters on TV could do with a humor implant...

Oh heck, they should all just fuck like bunnies

Group orgy eh? Too bad it's not on Showtime still...

Hmm, reminds me of how I met my husband...
