Elizabeth Weir/John Sheppard Appreciation/Ship/Discussion Thread
It's not bad, is it? I was a bit on the fence at first -- lots of teens and it's The CW -- but it turned out rather interesting. Still have to watch the season finale so please no spoilers. And of course happy it got renewed for a second season.
I need to get off my creative but for my part too. But the outline of the ep is awesome (IMO, obviously, although I think we can all agree Eri is a fanfic savant). I had a nerdgasm, joygasm, and minor sparkygasm (it's the best kind of gasm ).
Eri is totally a fanfic savant. I wish my creative butt would get in gear and be as awesome as she is!

Sparky is on screen. Therefore, it is canon.Elizabeth is still out there. And John WILL bring her home.

She sure is! But I also want to see your creativity “in action”, even if it will be only one scene.
I swear. Every time I've tried to sit down and work on SGA Rising the past few weeks, it's been one thing or another throwing me off. The latest thing is my backup drive getting full and the new external drive I got isn't playing nice with Time Machine and keeps puking out 'backup failed' messages no matter what troubleshooting solutions I try. *screams* Getting a Mac was supposed to make computing easier, not give me incomprehensible frustrations!

Ah, now I got the answer to the question I tweeted to you. I'll ask Mr. SR if he has a solution right after he finishes putting the baseboards back in the right order in the powder room we are redoing.

Ugh, yeah I keep getting 'Time Machine couldn't complete the backup... An error occurred while creating the backup folder' nonsense. It worked perfectly at first, but after a few days, it started puking on me like this. WTF. I'm about ready to take the thing back and go get a Time Capsule. Maybe something built solely for the purpose will actually work right.

Mr. SR is finishing up a few chores, and then I'll ambush ask him about your problem. I seem to recall mine doing that a few times.
Meanwhile this happened earlier:
Spoiler:
Mr. SR: Do you want the new medicine cabinet to open right to left or left to right?
SR: left to right
MSR: *blank look*
SR: (using hand signals) left to right
MSR: *even blanker look*
SR: Turn around and face the direction I'm facing. *waits* Like this, left to right.
MSR: Oh, I see. Your hand signals were confusing me.
SR:

Sowwy! (hugs)
I have a friend whose entire 3TB media collection of MP4 movies and TV shows got damaged to the point that even Geek Squad couldn't fix it. So he's busy re-burning movies and TV shows. On the plus side, we're both SG fans and I had part of SGA and SG-1 done already.
Even though I'm off work for the next two months I cannot get my head in place to write or do anything productive fandom-wise. Although that might be because I just gained a few new ships. Word to the wise: never start shipping a pair from a Joss Whedon show that no longer airs. It's only gonna crush you, rip your heart out of your chest, and cut it up.
But it hurts so good ...
Anyhow, just hopped on to pay bills, but I need my beauty rest. Night, folks!

I can sympathize with the shipping new ships and being heart broken by them...I'm doing that to myself now Of course I won't stop, because, like you said, it hurts so good
Also...I have again ended up with a favorite character who doesn't stay around...at least this time she gets an actual real story and isn't just dropped with no closure...and she has the potential of coming back. I swear, though, that I am a glutton for angsty/emo punishment.
Well, I only got two hours of sleep tonight thanks to my lovely feline... He got into a yelling match with a cat at 3:30am, I let him in only for him to want back out. Then he starts it up again at 5:30, but this time he is so freaked out when he comes in that he decides the best thing to do is mutilate my left shoulder. So I've given up on sleep tonight/today.
ETA: So I went and got coffee, then went to the waterfront and took some sunrise pictures. At least one nice thing came out of a sleepless night.

Thanks for the suggestions and good luck vibes re: my computer issues, everyone! I've gone ahead and reformatted the new hard drive (again) and so far, so good. *knocks on wood*

Wisdom we can all live by. He can be a cruel one, that Joss.

Ow! And I thought I was a scary kitty! Hope your shoulder is feeling better!
