I suspect people in Brussels will find it irresistible *

Am ridiculously exhausted right now (and still sick). I'll discuss the long weekend with my parents over in zomg the land where I was booooorn later, when I ain't this side of dead. Yesterday was Building Ikea Furniture Day (death to Ikea and their stupid screws! death, I say!) and then hip hop with nigh a break. And today's first act was to dismantle (unscrew, unscrew, damnit!) a bookshelf. And then stand stoically as my parents went away to fly over the Atlantic. You only miss 'em when they're gone, really.

So the point of this is to say that I'm a) tired b) parentless c) totally going to post pictures (seriously, poke me if I don't).

And a little Doctor Who squee, before I peruse the newletters. Is it me, or are there a lot of Season 3 Finale reminders? Come on. The hand, the paradox, the Almost-Time-Lord dying in the Doctor's arms (by gunshot, no less), the "I'm so alone, everyone's dead" speech which was oh so definately shaded by Master-grief (the wording, yo, which I can't show you because there's no transcript, methinks, and I'll be damned if I'll transcribe it.***) Damnit, Master, regenerate come back with that deliscious body of yours!

And Donna's "You're wrong" of the Doctor never getting his folk back was chock-a-block full of squee. Oh yes.

Also, David Tennant, you utterly amazing bastard. His woobie!face breaks my heart every damn time, and his "so sad, so serious" and "scary serious Doctor" make me back away slowly and with great care. *fangirls liek woah*

aimeesworld is amusing, has been metaquotesed, reviews Love Lies Bleeding: A Vampire Love Story (bad, bad book summarirized in good, good comic by shinga) and is reputedly an amazing Harry Potter fanficcer.
buttfacemakani is also likewise amusing.
lostsailors's Website: Somethingtookish (pretty, but I'll be damned if I can find the content). Noted here because she made the awesome poster of awesomeness featured in ack_attack's Lost Ongoing Post
The trailer for the bastardized version of Life on Mars is out. (Link withheld for your sanity and good taste.) versaphile and others gape in horror at the mere thought. Oh good lord, it's awefull.
