Me: So there is a Prison Break Behind the Scenes book.

Hubby: Ok

Me: And I want you to get it for me for Christmas.

Hubby: Ok

Me: But I don't actually want it for Christmas. I want to get it now, and we can just say it is part of my Christmas gift.

Hubby: Well where can we get it from?

Me: I heard that you can order it off Indigo for less than $30 including shipping. *waves to linzi20*

Hubby: Well maybe we can order some other stuff so we get the free shipping.

Me: *g*

...which is somewhat like the 4th grade slump, but different since I don't think any of us are 9. *g*

No, what I'm talking about is the fact that there are days when I can click on my flist and the whole first page (or more), is taken up with icon posts (not that I don't like a good icon). To me this is sad. I miss all the activity around here. Now I know that without spoilers, and pictures, and episodes to talk about everything is a little less exciting, and I get that, but I still want to read rl posts, and play around with memes (really)! It's like with the end of PB came the end of the liveliness of LJ, and I really wish we could change that. I am far from blameless in all of this because I know that I have far too often not checked my flist, or have written the update posts where it's about 2 weeks compiled into a couple of long-winded paragraphs, or have not been as prompt as I would like to read fics or posts. I would love if we could somehow change this. Everyone is moving on from our show, but that doesn't mean I want to lose contact with people I would consider my friends. I don't really have any ideas of what we could do to change this, but I would like to.

Last year at this time, we were getting spoilers and pictures and lj was brimming with all the new S4 info, and you know what? I miss that. I think I am slowly moving on, as everyone else is, but today...I really miss my show. So here are a few pics, just to remind us.

( Just have a little faith )

*runs off to my next appointment*

*waves to flist*

I've been contemplating the idea of a new header for awhile now. I still love PB as much as ever, but I figure that my entries are getting less and less PB related; therefore, my current header (which I love and was graciously made by spoiled_andrea), may not be as fitting. I'm not sure what I would want yet, probably something that is a combination of pictures, but I was hoping to snag someone who would be willing to make it for me since I am hopeless at this sort of thing. *makes doe eyes* I don't think I could promise much in return other than my gratitude, and maybe the next story in The Gift of Time Series dedicated to you (or suggested by you).

So, I'm back having had some more time to process what I want to say and with my second glass of shiraz this evening. *g*

( Here we go again. )

*hugs flist*

So, this is the last one of these I get to do, there are no more episodes. That in itself is sad.

( ...and it ends )

As it turns out I will be home for tomorrow's rewatch. I had originally thought I started work at 9am, but apparently I have issues reading a calender. I start at noon. I'm not sure if I will be there though. It all depends on how I feel. I'm a little all over the place right now, and the fact that rl has been so stressful (I spent about 45 minutes crying before I even watched PB, imagine what I look like now *g*), I might just want a very low-key, relaxing morning. We'll see though. This is Prison Break we are talking about.

Anyway, I'm off to watch a movie (at least part of it anyway), but I want to reiterate something I said last night....

I AM NOT GOING ANYWHERE!*

*this is all the all in caps you will get for tonight Rosie. I promise to add some more next time.

It's the eve of the finale (or rather the early morning of, what I am still doing up, I have no idea. It probably is the same reason I was in Safeway at 10:30pm.), and I was thinking about how I feel once again. Shocking, I know! lol
,
( It's almost here, and here I am without my HD channels. Stupid DVR! )

Since real life has been causing me so much stress lately, I have been obsessing more than usual (which is really quite a lot) about PB. So here is another post about how I am feeling/what I am thinking about that spoiler.

( I could use some syrup. lol I think Mo is the only one who will understand that. )

In other news, I went and saw my mom this evening (which is why I wasn't at the rewatch yet again), and she is doing well. She seemed much better this time than after her last knee surgery, so I'm hoping that her recovery will go well. Also, I have started watching Castle the last two weeks and I am really enjoying it.

( because I don't want to spoil anyone who doesn't want to be... )

Anyway, it's late and I am off to bed.

I come home from a day at work then a dinner out to read this!

( spoiler talk )

If you want to discuss, or just say how you feel, feel free. I want/need as many opinions as possible.

Taken from www.prisonbreakbuff.com

Prison Break executive producer, Matt Olmstead, opened up to EW about the decision to end the series this year. He also says that we WILL get an extra two hours of the show that they might spin like a TV movie!

There was “nowhere to go beyond this season,” Matt says and he didn’t want the show to become a parody of itself. When he speaks about the May finale, Matt spills that “There will be deaths.”

So what about this two hours of additional filming? Olmstead says that the have filmed a couple of extra segments that he says “address a couple of other storylines [and] can play as a standalone [movie].” Hmm, a Love Story perhaps?!?!?

Sorry for the back to back posts.

If you haven't already heard...

Since the beginning of this season I think I knew that it would be the last. Unfortunately, this does not make this information any easier to take. Ultimately this show could not continue on indefinitely and I am happy that we will get a conclusion, but the happiness is bitter sweet. I think for the betterment of the show and actors, the story does need to end. It has played out its course and there is not much left to tell. I do not want my show to go though!

Last year at this time I would have been happy with it finishing. I was still so upset about Sara(h) that I did not want the show to depart from its original story anymore. I wanted it to be over so that I could remember what I loved about S1 and S2. Now I can only see how so many good things came back with this season, Sara(h) at the forefront of these. What am I going to do when Prison Break is finished?

Typing that out, I realize that on the surface that makes me appear like a desperate fangirl, and really, maybe I am. However, Prison Break has become such a huge part of my life these last few years, that I feel there will be a void. I joined LJ to become part of a fandom I loved, and now what will happen with this fandom? I have made friends. Friends who I know are going through similar feelings and hopefully we will not quickly float apart. But how long will PB discussions, actor discussions, and fanfic writing go on? I think the ending of fandom actually makes me more sad than the ending of the show.

Like I mentioned though, I am happy we will get some sort of ending. It's not a cancellation, but a conclusion. And even though I would have stayed a loyal fangirl until the end, I am glad we will not be seeing Prison Break Atlantis. *g* I plan on enjoying my show during these last episodes and hopefully for as long as I can. I realize we are only guaranteed four more episodes, but I hope we will get the full six. I also hope that we will be able to see the actors we love move on and give us lots of enjoyment in other ways.

Now I open this up to any thoughts, feelings, impressions, fears you want to share. I know that wallowing together is much better than wallowing alone, so I have wine and I'm sure we can scrounge up something else if wine is not your choice wallowing agent.

*hugs flist*
