Various: Harry Potter, Golden Compass, Enchanted

Sorry for the radio silence.

As previously mentioned, I got around to watching the two most recent Harry Potter films and then felt a deep urge to immerse myself in Harry/Draco fic (of which is there a whole freaking lot, I tell you). HP is kinda an odd-out fandom for me -- it's the only fandom where I ship enemies, rather than friends. Though I flirt with thinking that Harry and Hermione would be adorable together (I liked R/Hr up until she attacked him with birds and then that ship was dead for me), I really only read H/D.

So, that's what I've been doing the past week or so. Also, I just finished wrapping up all my gifts and sent out holiday cards (New Year's cards, really) to a handful of people -- out-of-town family members and just a couple of fannish people. This great accomplishment means that I may actually request addresses next year so that I can send more people cards, as it was quite nice to do that.

I saw The Golden Compass and Nicole Kidman was delightfully slinky and I adored her and the rather interesting world that she, Lyra, and the rest all inhabited. I just saw Enchanted today and thought it was beautiful, funny, and quite touching (with more lovely familiar faces than just my beloved James Marsden... who I've decided is definitely an actor that I will go see a movie for. He's brilliant at living inside the skin of his characters). It explored fairy tales and 'true love' and real love and was... thought-provoking as well. I've been thinking, ever since I got home. I may post about the subject at some point in the future.

I'm rather immensely excited about the upcoming Doctor Who Christmas special, S2 of Torchwood, and S4 of Doctor Who. I'm spoiled enough to wish that they could all be airing immediately.
