I bask and I glow

l'm a fan..there let's get that out of the way. I like my shows dramatic, my actors foreign..other than that I also love music, movies, books and sports honestly I could list all my favs individually but that would take all day and I doubt anyone would bother to read it anyway. I believe Davos Seaworth should just adopt most of Westeros because most of the characters from Game of Thrones really need a father do over. In other words please don't make me have to cut someone for saying something unflattering about Davos, thanks. Warning: I'm a sucker for character backstory usually the one that makes a character either misunderstood. In other words I like my characters COMPLEX. They may not always be the most well liked characters but they are probably the most interesting. Oh and sometimes I can be as shallow as a puddle.

the more I think about the fact that I was in fourth row during a bruce springsteen concert where he played the entire side two of the wild, the innocent and the e-street shuffle the more I feel like all my bruises are worth it bye having a moment of feeling like my life has been made bye not coming down from the high anytime soon

[baskingandglowing]

I'm so happy for you!!! It was totally worth it! He played Thunder Road with a string section that alone would be worth it!

[bluemulsanne]

he needs to make more tv appearances.

[baskingandglowing]

Love him!!! Please do more tv interviews!!

one more of charlie...for good measure and to push the point of "he really should be Rhaegar Targaryen" home.

[baskingandglowing]

For those that don't know, this is Charlie Hunnam, one of three actors that I'd LOVE for them to cast as Rhaegar Targaryen if they ever get around to casting him..not like his character isn't important..or will be, eventually, hopefully, maybe, keeping fingers crossed that they actually decide to show him seeing as even GRRM said his character is actually important to the story.

Yes, I want them to show backstory (about time for flashbacks guys, really). Maybe now that they're actually talking about him more, they'll decide to CAST him too.

Plus, he already is wearing armor (for pacific rim) , in sons of anarchy he has his own crew (rhaegar had a pretty bad ass one himself) and he's British..he totally would fit, so what about age, has that ever been a hindrance to Game's casting department?

Daenerys Targaryen and Jorah Mormont

You have a good claim: a title, a birthright. But you have something more than that: you may cover it up and deny it, but you have a gentle heart. You would be not only respected and feared, you would be loved. Someone who can rule and should rule. Centuries come and go without a person like that coming into the world. There are times that I look at you, and I still can’t believe you’re real. 

[baskingandglowing]

LOVE Jorah!!!!

[mastervvv]

No more, i swear.

[baskingandglowing]

AWESOME!!!!!!

as much as I liked the Samurai exhibit, I always go back to my favorite part of the museum, the Greek and Roman section.

For yes, I am an ancient Greece and Roman history geek.

[baskingandglowing]

also watched this on Sunday, i'm so so so so SO happy they've continued this because I LOVED the special they had last year, I'm a sucker for good backstory and I loved Morse, so to see his early days and why he may be the way he is is like heaven for me. 

So far so GREAT, Sunday's epi was fantastic and from what I gather it's just gonna keep getting better.

Well done BBC and thank you PBS for picking it up!!

[baskingandglowing]

went to the Museum of Fine Arts and saw the Samurai Exhibit.

Honestly the detail of their armor was breathtaking, gorgeous, gorgeous displays of artistry and craftsmanship, I have no idea how they not only moved so swiftly in it, but how they could handle wearing it all with how hot and humid Japan could be in the Summer.

Shaun Evans as Endeavour Morse

Endeavour tonight!! Can not wait, I loved the "special" they did last year and i'm so happy they've made it into a series, i'm a sucker for backstory and Morse really is one character that totally deserves it.

Congratulations to Sebastian Vettel, winner, German Grand Prix.

Those last few laps were unreal. Plus I loved seeing him win in his home country.  

He's first in points but a big congrats goes to Raikkonen as well for moving to third in points.

[baskingandglowing]

I'm not a Scot but if I were him I would have yelled during the on the court interview after the win "This one's for Scotland!!!"

GOT/ASOIAF meme: eight friendships and/or otps (6/8) Davos and Stannis

“Arise, Admiral of the Narrow Sea and Hand of the King”

[baskingandglowing]

i love their friendship, i think sometimes Davos says everything that Stannis can't.

[baskingandglowing]

i need NEED a Davos appreciation post, honestly i don't care if it's caps, meta, stories or just why he's just so kick ass..because he is kick ass and the voice of reason in that unruly land.

But pass it on and please add to it.
