It really is nice being home. Somehow, after only a couple of days, it feels as if I'd never left. Especially with my brother staying with me pretty much from the moment I showed up. We celebrated his birthday yesterday with Chinese, while watching Sherlock, which I can't recommend enough. Sherlock, not Chinese. I don't think anyone needs Chinese recommended to them. *g* Sherlock was however the perfect blend of drama, sarcasm and suspense that I've come to expect from BBC shows. Pulling off modernized Sherlock Holmes well is *not* easy, but they managed. Even if the bastards did end it with a damn cliffhanger.
And while I'm on the subject of British shows, Qi is quite possibly the most brilliant show I've ever had the pleasure of watching. As a rule, I can't stand panel shows. They always either bore me to tears, or annoy me to hell. This one however, had me crying with laughter. And managed to teach me a few things at the same time.
