I'm a time traveler. We point and laugh at archeologists.
My stomach and brain are not being my friends today. My stomach has been upset over heaven knows what and my brain is making me sleepy. I haven't been sleeping well...I think it has something to do with the heat. I wish it were fall without the having to go to class part haha.
I haven't updated lj for awhile now...not sure why. I think I may have forgotten about it a little bit. Anyway, lets see if I can catch myself (as well as you) up on what's been going on in this mind of mine.
I've been pining for anything Doctor Who. That's no surprise though, right? My fanfiction writing has waned a bit, but it doesn't mean I'm not brimming with ideas for it. I have two unfinished stories. Unfinished because I got rather self-conscious about them. I love them and I will probably finish them simply for myself. I probably shouldn't say this, but I actually really like my writing. heh. I've been watching David Tennant's video diaries from the third series because apparently, I haven't watched them before! Who knew? Anyway, he's so funny and charming in his videos. Last night he was taking a shot of a stained glass window of a church and he said, "That...is God....it's his first time on Doctor Who..." it's corny and dorky, but oh how he is wonderful. I put his picture as the Doctor up as wallpaper on my computer here at work and a student asked me who he was and I'm like Doctor Who and he gave me the most confused look. I forget sometimes that not many people watch it. At least, not here. I still can't watch any Comic Con footage...I get so sad! haha. It's silly but true.
This is the episode I watched last night:
I'm John Smith.
That's all I want to be. John Smith.
With his life and his job. And his love.
Why can't I be John Smith? Isn't he a good man? Why can't I stay?
~ David Tennant as the Doctor, Doctor Who
It makes me sad! Cuz, for one, he can't have this kind of normal life and two, that isn't Rose!
Okay. Let's move on before I go into that...
Erick and I got tickets for this movie festival the local Plaza theater is having this summer. So yesterday, since I had to work in the morning and Erick had to take care of some stuff at school, we got on a bus that took us downtown where we had a fantastic burger and fries meal (yum!) and then chilled out until the theater doors opened :) We went to see the classic Willy Wonka movie :)
We are the music makers and we are the dreamers of dreams. ~ Gene Wilder as Willy Wonka
It's fantastic! It was a little annoying because people kept talking during the movie and that is a major pet peeve of mine and Erick's.
Willy Wonka was Erick's choice, and on Sunday we're gonna go see It Happened One Night (my choice!), it's gonna be so great.
You think I'm a fool and a spoiled brat. Well, perhaps I am, although I don't see how I can be.
People who are spoiled are accustomed to having their own way. I never have. On the contrary - I've always been told what to do, how to do it, and when, and with whom. Would you believe it?
This is the first time I've ever been alone with a man! It's a wonder I'm not panic-stricken.

And since I apparently love photos today, here is one of my own of the Plaza Theater:
Also, much sadness to report: Erick's and my favorite (and one of the very few) comic book stores is going out of business.
We are making a pilgrimage this Friday (it's on the other side of town) to demand an explanation from the
sweet as cookies owner and also to buy what we can from what's left over. It's too too sad.
Where am I gonna get my geek fix now?
I'll have to wait until B&N stocks their Buffy comics...or order them...sad day :(
I'll post more when I'm more awake and you know...conscious and stuff.
