Passion Fish Glee

[marguerite_krux]

I HATE EzyDVD.
I LOVE PayPal.
And the latter helps mitigate the former.
The former who are complete bastards. They jerked me around by calling me in TWICE to pick up my CSI:NY dvd and then telling me, whoops, the call was made early, I can't pick it up just yet. 
And then they go and advertise Passion Fish ON SALE NO LESS but when I call up to order it...
'Sorry, that dvd has been discontinued'.
DISCONTINUED THEY SAY.
*head explodes*
Just in this state, because they're stupid. So so stupid. Why do I live here again?
Anyway, the only reason I'm still capable of coherent thought rather than sobbing ceaselessly is due to the wonderful invention that is PayPal. I don't have a credit card, so online ordering isn't really an option, except when I played out my fantasy by registering with EzyDVD, clicking on Passion Fish and heading to the checkout...it asked if I would like to do so with PayPal. And OH, the unbelievable squeefulness of that moment...
So, today in my inbox:

Hi Annie,
Thanks again for ordering with EzyDVD.

1 x  Passion Fish @ 9.92

*cackles insanely*
It better be worth all this see-sawing emotion. I don't think my heart can take much more strain.  >_<
Oh, and I ordered Mumford as well, though it won't be out til, like, June. Exam time. This should be interesting...I'm totally *not* ripping off your dvd list, Sapph! It's coincidence we have the exact same list of Mary movies...um... ;P They should so pay you for every new fan you recruit, lol. I'm head over heels now and I have no idea how I lived life before this state. ;)

EDIT:
OMG, I totally just ordered E/R through iOffer. *headdesk* Yes, I am bankrupting myself over Mary...and who was the one who mentioned this 'iOffer' site in the first place? *glares*
I will not feel guilt over the spending of money, nooo. After all, according to the hallowed list of rules by own_the_sky:
2.Mary addiction is a perfectly natural state of being. 
*nods firmly*
I'm going to go freak out now.

haha. Passion Fish is good. Mumford has amazing Mary scenes... Check out the hotness when she's in the nurse's outfit. *dies*

Lol, maybe i should write a formal list of rules.

[borg-princess.livejournal.com]

Lol, maybe i should write a formal list of rules.
Dude. GO, write! I'm religiously observing the two you've set me so far, lol.

Mumford=hot nurse outfit? *giggles* It's actually a demotion for her, from being a doctor in E/R to a nurse! I love seeing her be all professionally dressed up, though, whether in suits, lab coats...it's ridiculous. I didn't know what Mumford was about, I just ordered it coz- well, Sapph was, and now that you're gleeing over this nurse outfit...*has heart attack* June is too far AWAAAAYYYY...

[own-the-sky.livejournal.com]

haha, i'll get on the master list when finals are over.

It's not really the kind of nurse outfit you'd go to work in, if you catch my drift.

[borg-princess.livejournal.com]

Whoa, you're permanently hooked up to LJ, aren't you? I'm in awe...

t's not really the kind of nurse outfit you'd go to work in

There are no words. *flails*

I saw a naughty nurse outfit in Bras'n'Things the other day. Wonder if it bears any resemblance...? XP

[own-the-sky.livejournal.com]

lol i basically have a pretty intense lj addiction

[borg-princess.livejournal.com]

Incidentally, ICON ENVY. Your page of userpics? IS KILLING ME DED. *steals them all* My favorite is surprisingly not shippy-

LMAO. ;P
My very first flame was for a fic where I...ahem, killed off Seven. YES, it's juvenile, but it was that or pay for therapy. *childish glee*

[own-the-sky.livejournal.com]

ugh, i love voyager but Seven makes me gag every time i see her... i don't take kindly to people breaking up my ships...

Oh thanks on the icon front. i have a zillion more at guilty_icons.

[borg-princess.livejournal.com]

AHAHA!



Made of win! *gigglesnorts*

I have a folder of thousands, if not MILLIONS, by this point, lol. I'll never be able to use them all in my lifetime, but I like knowing they're there...

Re: Seven. I hated her for so long, it was literally like, wake up in the morning, 'God, I hate Seven of Nine and Brannon Braga and the rest of TPTB'. Those were curse words to me, heh. But really, I can't blame her entirely for destroying J/C- by season 7, I think the writers had frakked up Chakotay's character as much as they could and there was never really any hope left. Shattered, aside- I hate them for raising my hopes with this lovely ep with FLUFF and then squandering it for the nightmare of C/7. I don't think Robert Beltran even wanted to be there anymore, the writing for him was so bad.

I haven't seen STV in ages, except for Tsunkatse, where I was surprised to find myself cheering for Seven against the Rock. I think falling in love with Jessica/Stark in Shark made it impossible to continue hating Seven, lol. It's weird how getting hooked on a ship makes me like characters I would otherwise totally hate.

[own-the-sky.livejournal.com]

haha... agreed. I have all of voyager on DVD (except for season 6 for some reason). It was pretty obviously Beltran was pretty disinterested. Sad because i love their chemistry.

Haha, yeah Shark really made me think about how i could continue to hate her...

[borg-princess.livejournal.com]

Yay, fellow Shark fan?! I need to check if there's a following on LJ because I don't know anyone- before you- who was into the show. The interesting thing is that as pretty and stunning as she was in Voyager, I prefer her look in Shark so much more, when she's older and more mature. I don't know why that is.

I only have 5 and 6 of Voyager on DVD- my uncle bought them, watched them and then had no further use for them [so he said], so he gave them to me! *luffs* Season 6 wasn't my fave, wasn't that the one with Equinox? And throwing Chakotay in the brig for disagreeing with her? What's with my OTPs and brigs anyway...?

It was pretty obviously Beltran was pretty disinterested. Sad because i love their chemistry.
I totally blame the writers, they gave him so little attention and the crappiest scenes when they bothered to remember Chakotay existed. Pfft. He's the second-in-command, I mean, wtf?!

Shattered was awesome, but too little, too late. It did show the chemistry that I missed, though. *sighs* Voyager was the first show I started writing fic for, immature as it might have been. I miss those days where my imagination ran rampant with the possibilities. I've been OD'ing on Survival Instinct fics but so much of it focuses on post-eps. Which isn't a bad thing, but I don't think BSG lends itself to external plotlines, if that makes sense. It's not like Voyager or SGA where they're exploring new planets and encountering new civilizations and there are so many fics you can write on those areas.

[sapphs.livejournal.com]

You SO TOTALLY ARE ripping off my list :P But that's ok because I want you too *squees with the Mary love* Should I be charging a commission? ;)

I'm so annoyed about Mumford, grrr. I want that now! iOffer owns me now. I bought E/R and Dark Skies from there *guilty*

and who was the one who mentioned this 'iOffer' site in the first place? *glares*

Would that be me? If so *adopts innocent face*

But you wont regret paying $10 for Passion Fish. It's a great movie.

[borg-princess.livejournal.com]

Should I be charging a commission? ;)

Look at it from a financial angle- I've bought all the BSG seasons so far. Will buy season four, although I might have to wait like, a year to get over the grief if Roslin dies...*still in denial*...and I'm ordering pretty much everything with Mary in it! That's like, $200 so far, and counting! So, hell yeah, you deserve a cut from them for all this revenue-raising.

Meanwhile, I have three subjects of my own that I'm working on converting...*evil mastermind* >:P Lol, it's like Pay It Forward gone sci-fi.

Dark Skies? Is this something I should be adding to the checklist?

Would that be me? If so *adopts innocent face*

Heh, I think you've been responsible for enough warping of my character to drop the innocent act. Seriously, the change my personality has undergone in the last month due to you is RADICAL. My entire family now knows the name of Mary McDonnell. [Not to mention my walls are covered with posters...our color cartridge is almost empty, lol] And when I'm on a BSG rant, they run and hide in fear...*snickers* It's so fun being obsessed.

Ohhh, Passion Fish. How fast does ezyDVD ship anyway? I'm hoping it'll get here next week, except my relatives are staying at my place and I'm with my grandmother, so fingers crossed the parcel isn't intercepted...the parents are cutting down on my tv time again. :O I might have to run home every morning to check the mailbox, lol.

[sapphs.livejournal.com]

I should be Mary's publicity agent ;):P

Pay It Forward gone scifi = brilliant :D

Dark Skies was this show that I absolutely LOVED when it was on TV (like 10 years ago lol) It has Jeri Ryan and that dude... What's his name from Without A Trace, the young guy... Gah, mind blank.

Usually a couple of days. You should get it this week ;)

You need my mobile number. Everyone on my flist in Australia has my mobile number. I love getting random squee-age messages lol :P

[borg-princess.livejournal.com]

I should be Mary's publicity agent ;):P

That would rock! Not just for you, but for me and everyone else on your flist who'd be using you shamelessly to get to her!

Just looked up Dark Skies- it's Eric Close. I don't know which character he played on Without a Trace. I watched it off and on til the whole Sam/Jack mess turned me off. [Another ship with the same names, lol] Anyway, there were two young guys and the only way I distinguished them was one had rather...large ears and was gloomy all the time whereas the other dude was more light-hearted and I think he asked out Sam? Hmm. Long time ago, anyway.

OMG, you totally have to pm me your mobile number! Passion Fish ARRIVED IN THE MAIL TODAY...and I feel squee-age messaging may be in our future, lol. *flails*

[sapphs.livejournal.com]

That's him! Eric Close :D It's set in the 70s or something. I haven't got it yet, but I'll upload all the eps when I do (of course lol). I think it only went for one season...

*goes to PM* HAVE YOU SEEN IT YET? IT IS LOVE! I JUST GOT A MASSIVE BUNCH OF MOVIES FROM mizz_magenta as well *squees*

[borg-princess.livejournal.com]

Oh, so glad you'll upload it! According to tv.com, Jeri Ryan was only in four or so eps. I like her but I'm not OBSESSED with her, so d/l is preferable to buying. This review said it was like X-files, only more 'realistic' and more focus on government conspiracies, so that should be interesting...

NO I HAVEN'T SEEN IT YET! SO EXCITED!!!!

It's weird, it was in the mail when I left home at 9am and the mailman doesn't usually come til midday, so...hmm...fate wanted me to squee all morning in anticipation, lol. I totally would've turned around and watched it straight away if I was headed for uni or something, but I'd arranged to watch Sneakers with Netty so I wasn't bailing on *that*.

Mizz_magenta sounds like a goddess, lol. *squees for you* No work for either of us today!
