I hate, hate, hate, Daylight Saving Time!!!!!! [insert cursing] It's going to be dark again when I have to get up for work, and I really hate that. Not to mention, it throws me off for weeks, and in general makes me grumpy. BAH!

All Or Nothing
Mar. 13th, 2011 04:53 pmWe don't rent a movie in months, then we do two in one night! Got my long HDMI cable in so I can view the Amazon steaming on my TV, and watched the BBC 'Yellowstone' documentary. It was absolutely gorgeous! Then we decided to get a PPV movie from Dish and settled on 'Due Date' with Robert Downey Jr. - errr.... let's just say it wasn't my sort of movie. Then we decided to try out the Vudu service that came with the BluRay player since we got one free rental with it, and watched 'Taken', the Liam Neeson film. That one we enjoyed a great deal more. Being a person of an earlier generation, I find myself absolutely tickled by the fact I can just pick a movie on my TV screen and instantly watch it. I may not have got that flying car we were promised, but it's pretty darn nifty nonetheless! I remember when VCRs first appeared on the scene, and you had to rent the actual VCR the movie since VCRs were really expensive when they fist came out. What a difference a few decades make!

'Transformative Variations' (09/??)
Mar. 13th, 2011 06:57 pmRating: PG15
Notes: The sequel to Practical Applications, a story in the Echoes the Sea series, eventually Tony/Pepper, WIP.
Character(s): Methos, Tony Stark, Ezra Standish, Duncan MacLeod, Pepper Potts, James Rhodes, Nick Fury, Charlotte Sparrow, Natalie Rushman, Other Original Characters.
Summary: Friendship takes work; being friends with Tony Stark requires danger pay. When Tony said ‘I am Iron Man’, he affected the lives of those closest to him – they just never dreamed how much. Like a pebble tossed in a pond, the ripples eventually touch all in their path.

Transformative Variations
Chapter Nine
Stuck With Me
"Tony, what...," Charlotte began as she slid into the limo on the seat across from him.
"I thought it would be less awkward doing this now, instead of with an audience at the shoot," Tony interrupted, explaining. "That, and I was afraid if given the choice, you'd avoid being alone with me." ( He shrugged. He'd had a lot of experience dealing with embarrassing incidents, but while he was something of an exhibitionist, he knew the same was not true of his friend. )
