I'm certainly taking my time to update my journal recently :( Mainly because I haven't been in the mood - not a good reason I know, but still..... But I have gotten a new job, so I can safelt get away the hell hole my current job has become!! When I started working at the hospital they only had elderly demintia patients or the elderly who had become so phyiscally disabled they couldn't stay at their own home any longer. Which made it heavy work, but it wasm't too mentally stressful, as almost all of the patients were nice and so easy to look to look after....
But then about 9 months ago management decided to add more rooms, but once finshed were finding they couldn't get enough patientsto easly full them up. Sooo started taking on physicatic patients, anyone from violent paranoid schizophrenics to long-term alcholics (the type you see sitting around city streets drinking meths). And this was dispite the fact that none of the staff had any training to deal with these sorts of people, espically the care givers who did most of the work with them! So as you can proberly tell, I'm so pleased to be leaving that place it isn't funny!!
Now onto nicer things :) I ended up going to see the new X-Men movie a couple of weeks ago, with a group of friends. I was suprised by how much I liked it, espially as I'd been a big of the comics when I wa younger. It's a damn pity there was no Gambit in it though. As much as I hate to say this, but I've gotten Harry Connick Jr stuck in my head now, as Gambit. OK so you can say he's a tough too old, but then Hugh Jackman is *way* too younger to play Logan. But Jackman is a really good Logan though, they could have very easily done so much worse in casting Logan. Basicly speaking I'm very happy with Jackman as Logan now.
But guess what slash pairing has reared it's ugly head over the last couple of weeks?? Yes Logan/Gambit :) It's a pity there's not more of it out there. the only place I've been able to find any stories was X-Men Slash Central, and even they don't have all that many Logan/Gambit stories *sigh*. Which I've always thought was a little odd, as I've always pictured Remy as being to sleep with anyone or anything intelligent. Man, women, beast whatever :)
I have been hoping that people will start writing more X-Men slash, now that the movie has come out and is popular. But as Gambit isn't in this movie there hasn't been much to slash Logan with. There is the new Scott and Logan sites, of course. But the only m/m couple I read showen in the movie is Prof X/Erik (Magneto). But, I am hoping that as Jackman does make Wolverine noticably cuter more people will start slashing Logan. And if Gambit is in the next movie.... ;)
