I should post something, shouldn't I? Consider this a placeholder, like the title says. BH arrived safely, and stayed awake long enough to watch BSG and Rome. I will post about Rome at some later point. Really. For some reason I am kind of sleepy this morning; I'm trying to write reference letters, but they're going slowly

Happy birthday!!! ♥

[vaznetti]

I less-than-three you!

[bardsmaid]

Hope you have a great birthday. And how cool that BH is there to share it with you.

[vaznetti]

Thank you!

Can you beleive I haven't managed to catch one SINGLE episode yet? *grumbles*

Eventually all the good shows come to Mama, though ;)

Very happy birthday *hugs you and showers you with rose petals*

[vaznetti]

You'll have to see it -- it's a lot of fun!

Thank you! ::hugs you back::

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

I can almost guarantee that you will like Primeval even more after episode...3?

[vaznetti]

I am up to episode 4 now (the killer dodos, as BH calls it.) Don't you think Nick and Helen have a sort of Jack Bristow - Irina Derevko thing going? But then I also want to slash him with Stephen and the Home Office man.

And thank you!

Helen! I love Helen!!

Nick is less Jack than Helen is Irina. Don't know what he sees in the stultifyingly dull Claudia. But Jack/Stephen! Stephen/Helen! Lester/Everybody!!

[vaznetti]

Lester amuses me, I have to admit!

Stephen/Helen!

Oooh. I hadn't thought of that, at least not yet.

Mmm, Primeval. Dinosaurs and pretty people. It deserves all the pimping it can get, and the sooner it shows up in other parts of the world so that I can discuss it with more than a couple of people, the better.

For your birthday I offer up a handful of Stephen pics as a kind of taster for the final episode, which I gather you haven't seen yet. Happy birthday!

[vaznetti]

These pictures are great! He is very cute -- I like his eyebrows.

The whole thing with the rope was amusing, but not quite as amusing as the fact that Helen had clearly been popping back to Tesco to pick up coffee and to Boots for eyeliner.

[muridae_x]

He also has good eyelashes, which pretty hunks ought to have if they can possibly manage it.

And of course Helen's been popping back for supplies whenever she feels like it. She certainly seems to be a lot further along in predicting when and where they're going to than anybody else, though she has of course had eight years in which to formulate a theory, whereas Nick has only had a few months.* So long as she catches an anomaly to somewhere/when that she'd never visited in her previous life as a paleontologist, there won't even be any awkward questions or people reporting sightings back to hubby.

* I do wonder why the paleontologists are in charge of figuring out the anomalies though, even if they're useful for their expertise with the dinosaur invasions. You'd think that they'd have drafted in a physicist or two by now.

Oh, you and your pesky earth-logic! Don't you know that all forms of science are completely interchangeable? (See under: Dana Scully)

And yes, it took me a while to realize that time traveling was roughly as much trouble for Helen as walking up to the corner store for a candy bar and some milk.
