Hello dear, I loved the Red & Tumblr posts picture set! :) Could you tell me in which episode Red was using the vaio laptop (in the first picture)? Thank you in advance :)

Hi and thank you. That screencap is from the end of ep 108 “General Ludd” where Red searches the ViCAP database.

I was tagged by: miss-flapper

This tag is to get to know the person behind the blog better.

As with any tagging game these are the rules:

Rule 1: Post the rules.

Rule 2: Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post and then make 11 new ones.

Rule 3: Tag 11 people and add them to your post.

Rule 4: Let them know that you’ve tagged them

1. What is one job you would just not work? Why?

Any job involving children/babies. Like teacher or working in the baby ward at a hospital. I have always disliked kids/babies with an intense passion, I think I would probably lose my mind if I had to work around them.

2. Was there one required reading in school that you actually enjoyed?

I remember I quite liked The Crucible at the time. Although I don't remember much of it now.

3. You can only choose 1, give up movies for a year or give up music for a year? Why did you choose the one you did?

I would give up music. Although I like music I don’t care for it anywhere near as much as I care for films. Plus films have music in them so it wouldn’t be the end of music!

4. Dog or cat person?

DOG! I’ve had one cat in my lifetime and I don’t care to ever go there again. I love that dogs are so affectionate and they can sense how I’m feeling and adjust and make me feel better!

5. Your biggest pet peeve?

HAHA. Omg I have so many. SO MANY. But I’m going to go with crying babies. Because everytime I hear that I want to slap someone.

6. What is one genre of music you just can’t stand?

Rap. I don’t like all the ‘pimps slapping hoes’ garbage. It’s not really music and it’s rude and degrading to women.

7. Lipstick or lip gloss?

Lipstick, but only because I wish I had more of it!

8. The age old debate: Charlie Chaplin or Buster Keaton? Why?

Buster Keaton. I’m really not a fan of Chaplin’s work. I’ve seen a couple of his films and I just don’t like them. I’m not sure what it is. Also I think Buster Keaton is really the funniest man to ever grace the screen.

9. Favorite perfume and/or cologne?

I don’t wear any unless I’m meeting someone important so I don’t really have a favorite. But I quite like this kind my mom has that has been discontinued for about 20 years. It’s a lovely scent and I can’t remember what it’s called but I would love to have one of my own if they still made it.

10. If you could travel back in time and sit in on the set of a film, which film and why?

I’m going to say Ladies In Retirement (1941) because I would love to meet Ida Lupino and Louis Hayward while they were both at their happiest. Also, it’s one of my favorite films and I would have loved to see Louis and Ida act in person because this is two of their best roles. Also: Elsa Lanchester was in the film and Charles Laughton visited the set so I would love to be there for that to meet both of them as well !

11. This is your last meal and you are allowed to order anything in the world you want. What do you order?

I would have Bruschetta from my favorite restraunt. And funnel cake! (favorite foods that I can no longer eat on this diet :/)

Amazing people in this fandom: eroslovespsyche & cuenta-conmigo

Other of my projects for this year (new era for me... whatever) is talking more about the good ones here. In fact there are more good ones that bad apples, and making lists, as always, helps to remember it. Their tumblrs are also amazing but I'm talking now about the person behind those pages: I find the person even more beautiful that the tumblr.

I'll do one post per person/day, but I need to start with two: eroslovespsyche and cuenta-conmigo (aka classic-tv). They both are my personal "Chris" and it's curious that they almost share name. The first is like the zen-twin I never had (similar ages, things in common but she's more... elegant) and the second is like the little sister I never had (same reasons: we share things and we tell us mutual secrets, and again she has better taste than me xD).

Both sent me pretty birthday presents even before my mother said anything to me, LOL, and besides that (I love you, girls... I'll do something for you!) you both gave me a smile, and I really needed it! So I love you because a lot of reasons, but especially because you love & understand me xD

I also love the way they both love/admire River. Some fans, when they start knowing some sides of him, start building their personal "River Phoenix" to love, denying this or that thing (different things: some denials are even funny because they are about silly things xD). They don't do that. They are open minded and they love him in a more tender/beautiful way than me (I can't explain this better, I just "feel" that) so I'm proud of them as fans and as women.

(sorry for the long post but I'm emotive now and I can't help it)
