Abandon

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 )

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

I got a postcard today from karenor! All the way from Cardiff! OMFG! A postcard with Ten and Astrid on it! *falls down*

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)

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 :-)

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.

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 rjrog77 and she said everyone was doing it and so that meant that I should be doing it.

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

( Cut for spoilers in case there's anyone out there what ain't seen it yet. )

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.
