This is a bit of a pimp post because I have some random photographs to upload later today, and this stuff doesn't really fit with all that. So now there is pimp stuff with random RL stuff thrown in for good measure, and I probably shouldn't have been incredulous at the dawn sun because she has run away.

one. I have noticed that I have become unable to leave basic comments any more. I mean, I'm commenting, but I come off a moron in them. Please forgive and bear with me whilst I try to thrash my syntax issues in a bare-knuckle fight. So far: I am losing.

two. The rather badass and talented razorxrosary has made some Merlin icons which you can find here. Witness my GIP, and Colin Morgan's adorkableness. Fab.

three. As ever, the trip to London wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Unfortunately, 4 out of 5 people who left uni this year are already employed. My cousin brother and I chose to ignore that in an attempt to hide our wounded egos.

four. The car journey home was uncomfortable (I try to sleep but I'm now the wrong height to be able to do that comfortably in the back) but aided by Matchbox Twenty and Natalie Merchant. The car journey there was rather smashing. I watched Criminal Minds which hit some rather specific kinks, and NCIS which had a gag that I am choosing to believe was written JUST FOR ME.

five. The lovely leda_speaks has been running movie_100 (a weekly drabble prompt challenge where the fandom is a movie of your choice). I have yet to participate, though I have a great desire to. Comm is running a bit slow at the mo, but leda_speaks updates every week without fail, and the prompts are shiny. For the many of you on my flist who are lamenting a dry spell in the fic department, this is as good a place as any to start. !

six. Oh, there were also fireworks last night. Lame ones, unfortunately, but fireworks all the same. It was très exciting! (No, really.)

seven. I was going to link to this thing about how Ten doesn't really have a story arc, more like a revolving stasis (whoot, paradox!) but a/ I don't know if the person who wrote it would appreciate random linkage and b/ I don't really want to deal with other people's opinions on the subject. So that was a fail on many counts.

eight. A Softer World is really quite fantastic. An Eye for an Eye, haha! The creators have also produced a horror story called One Bloody Thing After Another. It's a serial piece, and will be up in full by the end of the week.

nine. They Call Me Boss (NCIS) by oxoniensis. A delightful McGee-centric ficlet set post-6x01, with perfect voices. "I can only see one booby," Tony says, looking pointedly at Tim, "and it isn't the bird you're holding. Which, for the record, is a Herring gull." MARVELLOUS.

ten. Trailers! No Heroics, an indie comedy about a world where everyone has super powers. Apparently this has been released in the UK for a month or so now, but I've yet to find anywhere that screened it. Sadface.

eleven. The trailer for Rachel Getting Married which is a film that I have a desperate, desperate need to see. Speaking of girl crushes (DeWitt, not Hathaway) the red band trailer for The Guitar. (And speaking of Saffron Burrows: this week's My Own Worst Enemy was another round of standard-standard, although the last few minutes brought me tremendous glee. Mostly because I yelled "SAFFY!" as soon as that guy got killed and I was RIGHT. Ha.)

twelve. It's a Shame, Sylvia Plath (CSI) by fated_addiction. A Sara (G/S) fic, getting into her head as she slowly slips away from Las Vegas. It's a slow, sad fic, and doesn't completely mesh up with canon, but it's a lovely, delicate read.

Up next: photographs.

I am having a similar dilemma wrt: commenting. Clearly the only solution is to take each other's syntax issues on, and beat them to death.

Also: thank you so much for the pimp! ♥

1. I'm thinking of adding something to my userinfo that says 'if a post contains more than two mentions of me being tired, read on at your own risk because I can't guarantee it will make sense.'

5. Sounds fun!

10. Was on ITV 2 or 3. My sister said it was good, I have failed to remember to watch it but am hoping for repeats/DVD.

I am still resizing/cropping ring photos but hope to post them and Germany/Open House stuff next week (ha ha)

A DUEL TO THE DEATH! Spiffing!



You're welcome! By the way, the word I was looking for to describe your layout was sexy. And then I self-censored re: my stupid comments. But now I want to say it anyway because I've been thinking about it. So. Now it is there. Out there. Yes.

1/ hahahaha, YES. I feel like I should also employ this disclaimer business. This is a Good Idea.

5/ I know! I'm going to try and actually ~participate~ whoot!

10/ Ahhh, damn. I will have to look out for it then because the trailer looked lolsome.

Hee, I look forward to them. I have now given my camera to The Sister to take to Spain with her, which is why I was having something of an overload this week.

You are lovely to me, did I mention that yet? (Heh, oh dear. Well, actually, that's probably because I type like the overeducated snob that I quite often am. Terrible, terrible!)

Welcome! It is deserved pimping. We need more people to play in the sandbox. I am good at whoring.
