I fucking love Neighbours. I can't stand Eastenders at all, but I love Hollyoaks and Neighbours. I like my soaps trashy, unrealistic and chock full of melodrama. I like plane crash tragedies, people faking their own deaths, serial womanisers with one leg, and people missing presumed dead who turn up with memory loss working for the Salvation Army. I like ridiculous teenage drug addicts, late night specials where date rapists get impaled in abandoned fair grounds, schemeing evil wives, and closet gay priests. Who doesn't?

I also have a massive girl crush on Libby Kennedy. I grew up watching the Kennedy family, and my first boy crush was on young Billy. Remember when he asked everyone to call him Bill because it sounded more grown up? Heh, yeah. And my first girl crush? Libby. She's like the amazing older cousin you looked up to as a kid, who always seemed so clever and strong and beautiful and you could never be convinced otherwise, even when she was babysitting in her jogging bottoms and burning your dinner. Even now, I adore her. She can do no wrong.

JKRs prequel-type thing was cool. ( Cut for spoilers )

I also devoured Supernatural: Origins, the graphic novel prequel that follows John Winchester's hunt for the thing that killed his wife. ( Cut for more spoilers! )

ETA: And now I am going to do my ironing and watch the tennis and this makes me very happy indeed. Yay tennis!

I am having a geek overload.

I just read the second collected issues of BtVS season eight and squeed to death, and kind of wished I could buy individual issues so I wouldn't have to wait so long for the collected editions, but I just like them better! Still, it was Faith-centric and I devoured it in one sitting. Hurrah!

I also just watched the Supernatural season finale and OH MY GOD.

And now I'm running late.

Listening to Holly Golightly & The Brokeoffs' You Can't Buy A Gun When You're Crying makes me think of Supernatural, so here are some spoilers for the last ITV2 episode ( Jus in Bello. )
