And now it is time for Eleventy day!
OH MY GOD MY SHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW. I can't actually be coherent at this moment because I am kind of bawling. And the thing is, I have actually been a little worried as the darker aspects of this season have developed that I would...I dunno, lose my squee. Except I haven't, because somehow the balance it has managed to strike between the silly and the profound and the heartbreaking and the hopeful is, for me, just right. And this episode is exactly that. As you might imagine I'm a bit...sensitive about the portrayal of mental illness on the teevee, and while I might have some nitpicks what is right about this outweighs them. And I miss Rory horribly, and this episode managed to let me do that without either dragging down under the weight of it or undervaluing it's importance. And I laughed. And I went eeeeee and pointed and flailed. And I got yet another OT3 out of it (seriously, I'm beginning to wonder if Moff and I were separated at birth on that topic). And it most definitely added to my pile of good things.
'scuse me, I need to go find some tissues.
