More randomness in my little corner.

Been very busy at work this week, so much so that I don't feel like doing anything when I get home. I've actually not written anything in almost three days which I think helped me go over my current CSI one shot with fresh eyes. I'm still feeling a little 'meh' about certain aspects of the fic, now I'm doubting the tense I used in creating it, but I've almost have 7000 words and I think it'll top off at 10,000.

Once my beta has a gander at it and tells me wheathter I'm being paranoid or if I need to tear some stuff apart, I'm unsure. I've never had this much difficulty in writing something before, typically one shots are a breeze for me and this piece has taken over a week to compose which is fairly indicative at how much trouble its giving me. Particularly because my muse wants to write the next big project, and its been really tired of late. Though I think its because its a gift!fic and I just want it to be what she hoped/wanted.

I watched “Epiphany” this week, actually viewed it twice. Joe wrote it and I recall an interview in which it didn't turn out how he wanted. I could sense they were seeking something more, but I actually quite enjoyed it as let's face it, SGA has very few character driven episodes. I think in essence John's path and drive in life is defined by his duty, the need to explore and protect his team and in doing so, Atlantis. Disconnected from his purpose he was sorely lost and felt unfulfilled.

While visitors there sought their divine ascensions, I think it really allowed him to evaluate his life and how connected it is to this surrogate family. There are of course the abandonment issues as he of course mentions. We've all seen his near obsession with not leaving anyone behind, and thinking he's been given up on, really rattled his core. I look forward in learning more about him, about his past service in which Beth tells me I'll learn more as I see more of the season.

I'm curious as to any good tags to this eppy, character study wise and of course, let's face it whump wise if anyone has any recs.

Lastly, a few months ago I missed my chance to hang out with Kiefer Sutherland. I will not this time around. He'll be back in town on Feb 3rd to promote the artist he's discovered. This time I'll work the show and this time I will finally have my two minutes with him...and no I will not be a fan girl. Last time I didn't get to go because I was given the wrong date and I wasn't feeling good. I will not miss the chance this go around. I'm excited by this and surprised he has time inbetween shooting 24, but it is on a weekend.
