I'm always all right.
Torchwood week - with a new episode every night - is approaching its end, and with no new Doctor Who on the horizon for months yet, it’s generating excitement at a ridiculous levels amongst the fandom, myself included. (If nothing else, it’s a heck of a lot of fun to have everyone together, watching and talking and obsessing over the same things this week.) I’m not always a Torchwood fan, but this has been pretty spectacular so far, with two episodes to go.
It’s always good to have some of that excitement, that distraction from the annoyingly real things in life. Fantasy, I maintain, is quite more fun than anything the real world has to offer.
My Grandpa is having surgery tomorrow morning and I am anxious over it. It is apparently “routine” but my (other) Granddad went in for “routine” surgery and didn’t come back out. I don’t have anything else to say that would do the associated thoughts justice, except that now I seem to be crying.
Time to find distraction.
