I've been doing a lot of writing in here, and i guess that's a good thing. I have a lot of things to say about a lot of different things and while I prefer my physical journal for most of it, sometimes I like the feel of the keys under my fingers, too.

Here's what's been on my mind today. Insane Journal is doing it's big purge this weekend. I'm sad, but happy about it, too. It is giving me a chance to see what muses are still active and which are not. It's also a good reminder in general of who I used to play since I've "archived" so many of my characters over the years. I saved quite a few of them, and let a few go. That's just how it has to be since the muse has either gone quiet or is just not there anymore. I don't believe in muses "dying". I believe in them going dormant or leaving all together. Which has happened to me rarely. My muses are my best friends outside of my irl/real friends. Okay, to me they're just as real so I try not to say it that way often, but sometimes that's the best way for me to describe it.

Oddly enough, I got my Damon Salvatore muse back. And he's been furious with me for the last few days. Something about, you gave up on us, and how could you?! Well, technically, I couldn't handle the show anymore. It just got stupid! It wasn't that I didn't still love Damon and Stefan, but I couldn't deal with the show anymore.

I haven't done any active writing lately, and the author side of me feels pretty damn guilty about it. I can't really help it though since I haven't been feeling well. Instead I've just been doing low stress things such as coloring, RPing, and reading. Talking to Anthony, too, when he replies. >.< I get anxious when he doesn't reply to me all day. I hope he's just talking to Rico or doing homework.

Recently, I'd been playing Super Mario Maker 3DS, and Wii U versions because I missed creating and playing my friends' courses.

Took a break today to do some much needed and desired reading. I am halfway through Carve the Mark by Veronica Roth, and almost halfway through my reread of Divergent by the same author. Now I have a reason to buy Four next month because I need complete my Divergent collection. (Four, Allegiant the DVD and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them next month). Oh and SHadowhunters Season 2, before my muses bite my head off. LOL.

Currently charging my Nook for reading of The Magicians and the sample of The Circle that I got because that movie trailer really intrigued me.

4am....WTF

It's too early to be up and to have so many thoughts. But I guess that's what this journal is for, mainly, so here goes:

Yesterday evening I bought Season 1 and 2 of the Magicians because I could. It felt nice! The flip side is that now certain people think I'm abandoning Shadowhunters because I am so into The Magicians. Why is that a crime? I am not abandoning anything.

Shadowhunters Season 2 has been full of Valentine Morgenstern, and I hate him. I have never hated a character in literature as much as I hate Valentine. So it's a struggle to watch him on screen. When I can get someone to watch with me, or have someone around that I can comment with, I'm fine, but lately Lissa hasn't been watching as it airs so we're both behind.

It also doesn't help that my DVR box has been acting up so that I can't watch anything I've been recording. So that really has put me behind on several shows, not just Shadowhunters. So I decided to get something that doesn't bother me as much. Besides those muses have been loud as all get out, and when you've got muses that loud, you do not ignore them. Eliot wanted me to have the seasons so I could watch at my leisure without worrying about Netflix taking it off their site. Which made sense, honestly.

Shadowhunters Season 2 will be there next month. And then I'll get it. if anything, I should be thinking about The Librarians Season 3. I'll be gradually getting all 3 Seasons on Amazon because Google Play lost the rights to it, and I have OCD so I need to have all 3 in the same place. Hell, I will probably also buy the DVDs cause I love this show so much.

But yeah, I really don't like that this person thinks I'm abandoning Shadowhunters. That could never happen. Anyone who knows me knows how devoted to Cassandra Clare's world I am. My devotion to her goes way deeper than my devotion to Stephenie Meyer. But then again, Cassandra Clare actually gives a damn about her fans. And she treats some of us more like friends than fans. (I am one of those lucky few!) So of course I am still devoted to the show based on her work. And I need to clarify. I hate Valentine, but that just means that she knew how to write a villain, and that makes me love him in a way? I don't know if anyone understands that...its a thing with writers and readers.

While The Magicians is my current focus right now, I love and will always love Shadowhunters. I've invested a lot of time an energy into Shadowhunters, and I will no doubt continue to do so. They just cast Sebastian Verlac/Morgenstern. It looks like they might be abandoning the Verlac storyline. I hope not, but I will support whatever changes that they make as hard as it will be. (I may have to be furious if they omit the Daylighter storyline for Simon, though because that is a major plot point for Simon's story).

I can't say anymore about this without really getting more upset and annoyed. So I'll just end it here. I just hope I can make them understand that it's okay to be devoted to two shows at the same time. One for the fact that me and Quentin (from the Magicians) share a lot of similarities mentally and emotionally, and the other because it is the biggest part of my fangirl life because of the source material, and it's creator.

Next entry, I will try and write more about Quentin and why I am so connected to him. You might finally hear about my secret kingdom, Carvel!
