I'm somewhere in the malaise of my week being finally over, and with it both Catherine's Wedding and Texas Public Radio's Pledge Drive, both of which I was involved in a large bit during the last seven days. So much so that for most of the days this week I was getting around four to five hours of sleep at the most before each new day began.
I. Doctor Who 5.03
Seriously, Moffat? Seriously?
It wasn't enough you change the doctor, the intro, the way the name looks, the location from London, the look of Tardis and the screwdriver? You had to completely change the look of Darleks, too? I want to be giving you the benefit of the chance, but you're making it just the smallest bit harder with each new episode you give me. Do something classic. Even if it's not 9 or 10's classic for a while. Aside from the bow tie.
I can't be part of the voices on my flist who have some issues with the look Amy gave the doctor while talking about having a crush on somebody you shouldn't. Her entire beginning episode makes the doctor The Great White Whale of her entire existence from the age of five or six or whatever it was. With instant presets for expecting to be made promises only to be left behind and forgotten for long jags all at the same time.
II. Livejournal Updates
On this new icons packs to be bought at Livejournal thing. My first response in my head is "Yay! More icons!" followed quickly by "Wow, livejournal. You finally found a way to make your permanent members have to pay for something."
III. On watching tv
After many years of watching tv on my computer selectively, the following things bother me about tv's:
1. Commercials. Any and all. For what they are, and for distracting me from what I am about at the time.
2. Previews. I don't want to know what's coming. Make it a brilliant surprise.
