The replacement

I'm enjoying my precious moments of freedom and I'm sitting here at dad's, in silence and I'm having trouble about what I should do. I should probably study. But the most important file I have at my computer at mom's so... I guess that has to wait till Monday. Does anyone else have pre-working angst? I'm going to work tomorrow for a few hours and I'm literary going 'wtf where you thinking when you took this job?'. But once I start working, it feels fine.

I saw a Buffy episode today!!! Seriously, I miss this show like a long-lost sibling. I saw The Replacement and I think that's sort of lovely on so many levels. How Xander's feeling of being misplaced in his own life is paralleled with Riley and Buffy's relationship where Riley definitely knows that they are not in the same place. *sniff* I almost want to have a marathon, but the thing is that you then run into an episode that you think is sort of semi-good and then you sort of give up the project entirely. ... Or maybe that's just me.

If anyone has any superduper good fan fics or something like that, hand them over :) Doesn't necessarily have to be a shipper fic, but just anything. Hand it over, I'd love to read it. *misses fandom*

I've always loved this one-sided Faith/Buffy piece by Mad Poetess: http://www.crackedverse.com//stakes/fic/swak.html

I know I used to have so many amazing Buffy stories saved, and now I can't find any. :/

All I can find is:

Because Even the Impending Apocalypse Doesn't Stop the Rituals of High School (http://allyndra.livejournal.com/33094.html) by [livejournal.com profile] allyndra. A look into Xander's senior year yearbook, right before graduation.

And a small collection of Angel stories.

I know the feeling! Sometimes I have weekends when I spend almost all of my time at work, I'm basically just at home to sleep and eat breakfast. The "Why do I do this to myself?" feeling always comes up before but when I'm actually working it feels fine, most of the time it's even fun.
