yo-ho-ho

That was simultaneously the most x-filesy and most shippy Bones episode ever. I'm still not interested in reading or writing Bones/Booth fic, however, 'cause, dude, they give me everything I want onscreen. I do suddenly want a story where Booth and Scully go out to brunch after running into each other at Easter Sunday Mass and commisserate about partners who insist on calling Jesus a zombie, among other small foibles, like waking up with amnesia and covered in the blood of murder victims. (Heh. Booth made sure they checked her bloodstream for ketamine, too. I bet it's now standard FBI procedure in those circumstances.) And then Booth could tease her about the stupid X-files movie, and it would be yay. And Mulder would be show up to take Scully home and be *totally* jealous. And then Booth would try to make Bones jealous too, and she'd blink and say "I don't know what that means."

Anyway, I would be kind of pissed at how stereotypical it is to make Booth Catholic, except a) SCULLY, b) he's an Irish vampire, of course he'd be Catholic, and c) anyway, they already made Zack Lutheran, so I'm happy.

Oh, and I may not have much interest in Bones/Booth fic, but Hodgins and Angela totally need to team up to get Zack alone and then ravish him. Thoroughly.

I'm also desperately hoping they didn't screw up NoLa as badly as they did Assateague last time, and yet, somehow, I suspect they did.

And every time I watch Bones, I'm all happy about the episode, and then they show the previews for next week, and I feel like barfing, because in the promo clip, Tempe looks like a zombie supermodel. With a hairdryer aimed at her head. *Why* do they feel the need to tart her up? Why do they think that will sell the show? She's barely even recognizable! Aaaargh.

(I zoned out and *forgot* that there was House and BL yesterday. I'm not suited for TV, really. I'm ver-ry slowly downloading House, though, and Sister assures me that BL had almost no Denny in it, so maybe I'll be all right.)

I got hold of Laura! We're visiting her tomorrow. So you should come on the later train, and I'll leave work early, take care of Darcy, pick you up at 5:30, and get to Frederick around 6.

No kettle corn for Kevin or Joey, then. Oh well!

Since you won't be coming to my place, is there anything from here that you want?

Oh, cool! So are we planning on coming all the way home Friday night, then?

And I can't think of anything offhand I want from your place. Except Darcy.

Yep. Laura's got a very busy weekend, so we won't bug her for more than a couple hours. Maybe I'll make you drive the second half. d-: We'll almost definitely miss Who, though.

No Darcy For You! Unless you want to keep her happy all the way home, and at Laura's, and all the way to Aaron's, and at Aaron's, and then all the way back to my place again, and I don't think you do. d-:

Yay! No hauling extra underwear all around school tomorrow!

And I'll set the VCR *as we speak*. And catch the later train tomorrow.

*snaps* Oh! I knew there was something! Do you have an ADC Anne Arundel County map book somewhere with your stuff? I'll trade you an old one for a newer one.

Um, nope. The only map book I have is a AAA US one, and it's in my car. I have a PG county fold-up map, but it's probably as old as your AA one.

(If I had one it'd be in my glove compartment anyway, so feel free to check tomorrow.)
