martha: "so what's his dabbling like?" / ianto: "innovative. bordering on the avant-garde"..
ahh my jaws are sore from grinding my teeth too hard! i'm waiting for my mum to finish talking on the phone so we can watch torchwood together. i'm up to 2x06 - "reset" and i'm worried about how things will work out in this ep *bites lip worriedly*
other worrisome things include the sherlock holmes movie, which i have yet to see. all the previews and promotional interviews with guy ritchie and the cast have been pissing me off for months on end b/c i'm a big purist when it comes to the Great Detective. [i've lost count of how many times i've read the stories, and how many literary papers, pastiches, etc i've read and discussed with other holmesian nuts *nerdface*]. however, positive reviews from my hardcore holmesian friends, including people like liquidexplosion and others who've done their freaking thesis on the topic, are now boosting my confidence. not sure when i'll end up watching the movie but i hope it's soon so i can either a) hate it or b) love it to bits. i'm hoping for the latter b/c honestly? that would just be fucking BRILLIANT. what wouldn't i give to talk about holmes at length with old and new fans? also, it'd be wicked if the movie was good enough to propel my fave authors into start writing for the fandom - poorly written OOC holmes/watson fic is already on my flist, and that's just unacceptable
lolol my mum just came and took a few pics of me in my brand new birthday pjs! so i guess i'll share them with you - along with pics of me in my christmas pjs
LOOK, I AM HOLDING MY BB HEDGEHOG [APTLY NAMED SPENCER REID] IN MY LAP!
in other news, i seem to have forgotten to share my thoughts on the doctor who special, which i actually managed to watch on christmas day! thanks again to everyone who contributed to this post. hopefully i can do something similar for part two of the special.
i almost fell off my bed b/c i was laughing so hard at the end of this episode, but i'm sure all the crying i'll be doing during [and after] part two will balance my tears of mirth.
- wilf is AMAZING!@ he's such an awesome character.
- my heart broke when the doctor started crying in the cafe
