short update

[mood| indescribable]
[music|John and Sam playing cribbage]

La dee dah, still negative even though it kind of sucks to be. Alice in Wonderland is ruined for me now, thanks guys. Fuck you very much.

On the upside of things, Doctor Who! \o/ A+++++ for The Unicorn and the Wasp; the plot was entirely cracktastic in the best way, Tennant's dad got to cameo (awwww!), and the "detox" scene in the kitchen was positively the most hilarious thing I think I've ever seen. Two thumbs WAY WAY up! It's nice to finally get something that isn't marinated in sadness and fried up in super angst this series <3

Laaaazy day today = me catching up on my fandomness and learning how to play cribbage, and me trying to tan on the deck today. Didn't last long XD I have a phobia of staying out in the sun too long since my last Epic Sunburn almost three years ago (I've only gone back to the beach twice or three times since), but I figured I need a little color to protect me in the summer days to come.

Not much happening. I'm going to go munch on some more pocky now and lament the greenlighting of the US Life on Mars series D:

EDIT




AHAHAHAHAHA

I envy you if you can tan.

I'm so pale, I'm sure I would blind people. (and fry, fry so hard under the sun).

I can, but not very well. It takes a lot of very short sessions (like, an hour each) and spread out enough so I don't burn. My skin sucks at the melanin game D:

PSSSHHH. Chick, I'm so white I'm translucent ;__; The aforementioned Epic Sunburn landed me in the hospital for observation and an ultrasound D:

Oh goodness.

;___; That is some epic sunburn. Yeah, plz to be not doing that again.

I'm right there with on Alice In Wonderland being ruined. *shakes head*

What is cribbage? =Oo=

[identity profile] vinylsigns.livejournal.com 2008-05-18 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
*sighs in solidarity* Let us commiserate together, shall we?

Cribbage is a card game that also involves a board and pegs--it's kind of complicated, too hard to explain without being there to show you, but you can wiki it if you want. It's really fun once you get the hang of it ^__^

*nods* It best to do this with someone else. =^-^=

I see. I think I may actually do that.
I need to play different card games besides go fish, crazy eights, old maid, and war.

*gigglesnort*
"How is Harvey Wall banger one word?" xD

WIN on the edit. You make me really want to go watch New!Who now.

and that site you gave me? MAGIC. I've been watching Four all day. XD

[identity profile] vinylsigns.livejournal.com 2008-05-18 05:04 am (UTC)(link)
lol, you need to catch up, dahling, you're missing out on all the delicious crack ^__^ Fair enough, because of your macro I rewatched the TV movie today and skipped all the parts that weren't loaded with Paul McGann's pretty *g*

You are so welcome, I've been doing the same thing :D Although I'm sad that they don't have The Hand of Fear or Warrior's Gate--I like watching eps where companions leave the Doctor, for some sadistic reason.

[identity profile] fear-alchemist.livejournal.com 2008-05-18 05:07 am (UTC)(link)
I really, really do. That and Donna is made of awesome. And yay for the McGann prettiness!

Oh, I understand the feeling. I think the one that hurts me the most is Nyssa. Because you so know she's going to up and get sick and die. ;-;

[identity profile] vinylsigns.livejournal.com 2008-05-18 05:13 am (UTC)(link)
Donna really is--I love how she can totally get away with sassing the Doctor's pants off and still have enough to slap some sense into him *g*

Oh, that's heartbreaking alright, but you can tell Fivey's not as worried about her. He's fairly confident she'll find the cure, y/n? What really kills me is Tegan's departure because it's just so wrong. She shakes his hand and keeps as far away from him as she can, like he's a stranger and not her friend. Not a proper goodbye at all ;__; And? Utterly destroys the Five/Tegan shipper in me.

[identity profile] fear-alchemist.livejournal.com 2008-05-18 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I know! She's hilarious. Or how over the top she is. I was particularly fond of her 'Mate? OH NO' moment in the only s4 ep I've watched thus far. xD;

Yes, but it's still sad. She was one of my favorites. And TEGAN. sdefoew. She makes me flail so hard because of that. I mean, seriously, poor Fivey. (And I would probably be Five/Tegan once I shook my Five/Eight. Self-love, what!) xD I'm a weirdo, I won't lie.

[identity profile] vinylsigns.livejournal.com 2008-05-18 05:20 am (UTC)(link)
LOL "You're not mating with me, sunshine!" Says the girl who just snogged him this last episode XD

Oh no, I'm not saying it wasn't sad. I ADORED Nyssa and was terribly distraught to see her go! And Tegan always knew how to take her Doc down a couple pegs, but that was almost too cruel D: And no, I don't think that's weird. Hell, too pretty not to slash, yanno? Them and Ten as well. I was surprised that there wasn't a flood of Nickle-and-Dime action after Time Crash premiered *is slightly disgruntled over it*

[identity profile] fear-alchemist.livejournal.com 2008-05-18 05:42 am (UTC)(link)
XD YES. She's brilliant, though.

Seriously. XD Five/Ten makes me happy. so happy. So happy I actually almost wrote some myself.

And osrry about the delayed reply. I WAS JUST MADE OF EPIC FAIL.

[identity profile] vinylsigns.livejournal.com 2008-05-18 06:02 am (UTC)(link)
Time Lords slash themselves. It's a proven fact.

Master: "Doctor."

Ten: "Master."

Master: "I love it when you use my name."


Ten: "We're the only two left; don't you see, all we've got is each other."

Master: "Are you asking me out on a date?"


Ten: "...The Master--OH, he just showed up again!"

Five: "Really? Does he still have that rubbish beard?"

Ten: "No! Well. A wife."

And the newest episode just gave us some grade-a GOLD.

Donna, observing a handsome young man making googly eyes at the servant boy: "Typical. All the decent men are on the other bus."

Ten: "Or Time Lords."

LOLWHUT? DID TEN JUST ADMIT HIS OMNISEXUALITY? I THINK HE DID.


Understandable in light of your situation! I hope your TARDIS is okay!

[identity profile] fear-alchemist.livejournal.com 2008-05-18 06:04 am (UTC)(link)
BRILLIANT research.

I especially dig the last one.

TEN TOTALLY DID. LOLOLOL.


She's functioning well right now! So here's to hoping! ;___;

I love the Doctor, I lovelovelove him with all his geeky glory.

Your icon slays me ahahahahahahahaaha.

:DDD I love your icon of the kitchen scene--seriously best scene in Doctor Who EVER

Dude, where is David's dad? I totally didn't notice, and I've met him. Oops.

I agree about the episode. It was quite fantastic. Camptown races *shakes head* I was a little bit wary beforehand, because I adore Agatha Christie. Poriot is definitely one of my fictional heroes, and yeah, I was a little concerned. But it was great.

David's dad is apparently one of the butlers. In the latest DW Confidential, I saw him in the background of the opening scene during the garden party, so keep your eyes peeled :D
