Am all IKEAed out but oh it was worth it. I might now have even too much storage space, but that's awesome. I'm a bit concerned that my suitcase - which is on my flimsy wardrobe - might just fall through the wood. Boots are heavy, yo.

Anyway, my back hurts like billy-o and I'm going to snuggle up in bed and watch Part 2 of Crime and Punishment (the John Simm version). Story's a bit slow - or rather, simple - but it's got Simm and Doctor Who's Mr Tyler and the direction is just bloody gorgeous, with the colours, the slow-motion and the sped-up motion... And yes, Simm's absolutely gorgeous as well, with the long hair and the crazy moments. It's like a depressed Russian version of Sam Tyler. Loves it.

I'm still seriously jonesing for some quality Ben time, though. Damn you, Lost, come back. And while on the Ben-obsession, the man's fifty-odd. I feel all weird when I remember that. Not that I find Michael Emerson attractive per se (oddly adorable at times? Yes.) but rather this is a case of "character over everything else". Y'all know me and psychotic evil bastards, especially when they're not exactly that and just so much more complex, so that explains Ben. But then the actor's also freakin' interesting in his own right, well-spoken, humerous and can totally handle interviews in an amazing way. ETA: See what I mean? Is he or is he not adorably wonderful?!? ETA 2: Oh god the voice-clip! The voice-clip! ♥!!!

...I may need to get out more.

Also? Flatmate Renske just gave me too pieces of chocolate with a mascarpone+amaretto mousse thingy. Delish + aw, geez = happy Sickle

Here, have some more Dutch Music of the Dancefloor. The Opposites "Dom, Lomp & Famous" (Stupid, Rude** and Famous), an extremely catchy song. They appear to be mainly a rap band. Warning: ball-grabbing in undies 0.0

ETA: [livejournal.com profile] x_rose_tyler_x informs us Whovians to do the following for a major awesome little thingy:

1º Open the bbc DW site http://bbc.co.uk/doctorwho
2º Go to your bar with the time and date on your computer (don't close the page)
3º Change the day to any random day in the 9 future days (when the episode is shown), but try keeping both, the clock and the webpage open at the same time or you'll miss it!
4º Look what it shows... and then come and tell me!!!


ETA 2: [livejournal.com profile] ursulav astounds me with her Golem Girl story snippet and The Mandrake Girl. Seriously, this woman's amazing.

ETA 3: [livejournal.com profile] crazy_pill does awesome icons and, for a wallpaper, describes Ben in a wonderfully way: Read more... )


Links of the Day***:
Hilary Clinton demonstrates what not to say. Keith Olberman lays the smackdown (text c/o [livejournal.com profile] aelora and YouTube clip c/o [livejournal.com profile] greygirlbeast)

** Also ponderous and rag
*** I have so, so many links on the backburner, I might have to do a Masterlist. Or even a couple, divided by sections. Because I'm freakishly obsessive.
