There is probably something witty I could say here to bring everything together.
We're up to episode 11 of the series already? What? Where the hell has this series gone?
Apparently, I would be quite happy watching Matt Smith play the Doctor as a lodger stuck on Earth possibly for an entire series. Certainly one episode. (I did eventually quite enjoy The Blue Angel, even if it took me a couple tries.) "They call me the Doctor. I don't know why. I call me the Doctor too. Still don't know why."
Also, I think that's the best use of the psychic paper I've seen so far, mostly for the Doctor's complete lack of interest in actually being sneaky about using the same piece of paper for all his credentials. (I would have been more impressed had it been a reference from the Bishop of Devizes, but I digress.)
Wait, that wasn't what Three was singing in the shower, was it? I don't have Spearhead from Space handy.
OMG WANDERING AROUND NEKKID INNA TOWEL. I'm not sure I can watch this, it feels wrong. More wrong even than Three's shower cap, come to think of it.
He really just needs to tell everyone he's from Canada or something. That would totally explain all his eccentricities. Oh yes. Mm-hmm.
Oh hell, he really is trying to vie with Five for favorite Doctor, isn't he? Let's add sport to the list, shall we? I think I still prefer cricket.
The cat is the Doctor's spy? I LOVE IT. I love it so much. Doctor and cats, match made in heaven.
I like it when they play with the nature of the TARDIS itself--two time ships in the same place are never a good thing, and this ep takes that idea and runs with it. But who the hell built that ship? If the Doctor said during his spiel, I...apparently wasn't paying enough attention.

I bought an entire professional outfit today, quite accidentally, at three different stores. It all started because I found this fabulous top--seriously, fabulous, and with all the discounts I got it for NINE DOLLARS and I didn't even have to pay for it 'cause I used a gift card--and I wanted to get some kind of black crops of capris that would go with it, since I don't have anything like that for professional wear and they'll come in handy for the conference this summer. And then I found those and was like, "But, I can't wear these with regular black shoes, I'll look ridiculous, I need sandals or something!" And so I went to a shoe store and found a nice pair of comfortable sandals with a very low heel, and I shall give this outfit a test run this week at a local afternoon meeting I'm going to.
I don't normally wear nice clothes to work, you see, and almost all the nice clothes I have are winter-heavy. I'm not reference staff, I'm not administrative staff; I don't typically work with the public or in the public's view, and archives are messy, dirty places. I wear jeans and nice-ish tops. And closed-toe shoes. So this is all very exciting for me.

Has anybody written Ianto Jones' Diary, a la Bridget Jones, fic yet? I am merely curious.
Speaking of fic, I have a handful of Leverage fics open in tabs that I cannot read until after tomorrow because everybody writes Hardison better than me and that's discouraging. But tomorrow I post my fic and can revel in everybody else's Hardison-y goodness. (And next week the show starts again. WOOOOOOOOOO.)

Johnny Depp could totally play Ludwig II of Bavaria. He has the right cheekbones for it.
Helmut Berger. Doesn't he look like he could be Johnny Depp's illegitimate father or something?
