Just got home from seeing Wicked with my mom. It was her birthday present from which I profited greatly. WOW! I'm so glad I didn't know a thing about the story. I felt a tear pop out of my eye onto my cheek at the end! And the crowd was So enthusiastic, and rightly so! It was so nice to feel like swooning while surrounded by people who were also swooning.

Plus, sitting next to me were two men who were too muscly and tidy to be straight, but whose biceps were....inspiring. They didn't captivate me long, just in passing. Wicked is *that* good ;-)

It occurred to me on the way home, though, that Wicked is fanfiction. And the musical is like "Fanfiction: the Musical" if you kwim. The story is backstory and missing scenes...just like the best fanfic!

I had to force myself not to get shippy and recast the the play with my OTPs...

Cut for TL/DR )

But the stoopid addon I was trying out for LJ posting keeps mangling my posts and I keep deleting them.

So here is the request: anyone who can manipulate graphic type stuff like with photoshop...if you're willing, could you make me an Ood graphic that is monochrome... or close--a stylized Ood, like a silhouette? If you've no idea what I mean, I can send links but I am over trying to post this so I'll just hit send :)

Thanks!

Hey, wait: when in doubt, save and share:
Sorta like this...but Black or White...

Shame on me for being so involved in my RL! Fandom is where the love is!

I just heard the song "Desired Constellation" and if begs to be a mid-JE or Post JE fic...wow.


"It's tricky when you feel someone
has done some sin on your behalf
It's slippery when your sense of justice
Murmurs underneath and is asking you

How am I gonna make it right?"


And there's more but I shan't bore you.... But srsly? Please feel free to write some lovely angst... I might try. I've been chanllenged to write smut crack now...so I might be busy :D

First off, let me state my intentions up front:

Anyone a member of Demonoid.com that wants to send me an invite? I think I found a wee bit of treasure there that I MUST HAVE.

Think of the children! They need to be properly.....initiated.....

I found a Space Giants Torrent that seems somewhat....safe. And I want it. But unregistered users cannot get old torrents, and Open Registration is closed!

Anybody got some other ideas? Anyone can find Space Giants torrents for me to has?

Want.

I loved this show so much. I played it in the back yard probably more than I played Star Wars or Happy Days. Just so you know.

That is all.

Going back to bed now.

Why did I get out of bed to do this?

Hunger. I remember now. I'm still hungry....did I eat? (face...palm)

Happy Birthday, David Tennant. I had to stay up late just to celebrate last night and therefore am the last to post my fangirly Birthday message.

What is it that reduces me to a 12 year old pile of squee? Is the barely-supressed uber-nerd? Or perhaps the unselfconscious grin? I may never know.

Oh well. This is 2 years in a row I've posted to wish us a Happy Tennant's Birthday. Perhaps I grow less fickle in my old age.

Like one fangirl said, "37 has never looked so hot!"

And for that I am grateful, since I'll be there meself soon enough.

So, for making 37 sexy on an international basis? Thank you, DT!

So here's a photo of the first day of work. I just wish I had photos of the box when it came home. It was just a wooden crate, one big side pried off with nails still in it.



The man cut the free side in half and turned it into TARDIS doors.

I am so impressed. He's working on a way to make the flashing light on top. Knowing him, we'll have flawless "Police Public Callbox" lettering painted on by Monday :-)

While I've been sleeping off my shift, my man has been crafting a TARDIS out of a big wooden crate that he brought home for the childrens. This is all in honour of the small child's pending birthday.

He felt that something needed to be done with the box for playing in to be fun. Painting. Painting how? How Would one decorate a big Wooden Box?

As a TARDIS, Of course!!

My man has been sanding and cutting and I have not seen it yet. But Pictures will follow.

OMGWTFYAY!

More to come...

We should all play that game because the more I watch British TV the more I realise what a tangled web it weaves!

So last night while watching Fear Her for the umpteenth time, it occurred to me why Trish was so familiar. She's Bellino, isn't she?! She is! Kept expecting Ten to snog her after I realised that!

That realisation was similar to the one I had when I heard Sally tell Patrick's new girlfriend that she was "Slim-slimmety-slim from Slim-Town, Slimania"

The whole world really revolves around the Doctor, doesn't it?

It's all connected.

Ok, so I totally had a very quiet and dignified fangirlgasm whilst Christmas shopping today!!

My local Toys R Us has Doctor Who Action Figures!!

Not many, but they had S3 Doctor in the blue suit and Martha and a Judoon Trooper and Judoon, and the Regeneration set. And many Sonic Screwdrivers!

Oh, the only thing that took away from my glee was the vast difference in price---*ugh*!

I paid almost twice that for my Sonic. I mean, my son's Sonic. *g*

But I am still just so delighted.I am frankly shocked at my own restraint in the store. I didn't actually make the squee noise. But I was very, very happy and it totally made my weekend!

So in the last 24 hours I have sent a pile of money from the US to the UK via Ebay & Paypal so I could get my hands on some Doctor Who toys. Mostly, a TARDIS. I want a TARDIS.
It all started when.. )

Stolen from [livejournal.com profile] rjrog77 and she said everyone was doing it and so that meant that I should be doing it.


Your fate with the Doctor
Your name?
You describe yourself as a...?
Favourite colour?
How did you meet the Doctor? He kidnapped you for no apparent reason...at least, no reason that you know of. *shifty eyes*
How much does the Doctor care for you? - 54%
Does he love you? (8) - Most likely. - (8)
Do you love him? (8) - As I see it, yes. - (8)
How many years will you travel with him? 3856
How will you die? You'll die due to old age, but you'll die happy since you've lived a long, happy life with the Doctor.

My first reaction to Utopia was something along the lines of , "Holy mother of all that is made of Awesome!!!111"

I know I am a n00b and so far behind, but I don't think I have one rabid whofan who reads this so I'll share anyway. This is delightful, but Kalice needs to wait until she's watched quite a bit of series 2 before she'll truly appreciate it. You know he wanted to be Doctor Who on TV when he was in grammar school (so says IMdB)?

Anyway, I just happened to notice that, as I looked up his vital stats--to see if he was any relation to Steve Martin's ex-wife Victoria Tennant, (oh, and he's not at all, btw)--April 18th is his birthday. And he is older than I am (by 7 months and 7 days to be disgustingingly accurate about it). Both are bits of good news. I like knowing that people are older than I. But I digress. Here's the clip from Comic Relief )
