-Though there's no real news on the casting choices for that "all-female Expendables" project, Katee is excited about some of the other names the producer threw out. This doesn't say anything about who will actually end up signing on of course, but I'm feeling optimistic.

-Drive-by The Hobbit fic rec: "Loyalty, Honor, Heart" by leupagus. A short amusing romp into modern day AU; that alone would be enough to please me but the way the journey is fused into a college story is perfect.

-Lately I can't help resenting the barrage of anti-education/whining-about-homework posts I see on Tumblr because I honestly miss being in school. Of course I remember that sometimes the stress was pretty bad, but still.
