we'll always have casino night

I don't talk about House much - I just watch it and love it, for the most part - but I just finished 3x07 ('Son of Coma Guy') and the last few episodes have been so fantastic and gritty that I feel it's worth stating the opinion. Cameron's thick fringe, from underneath which she delivers her patented new Unimpressed And Smouldering Glance, is kind of alarming (I am not a fringe person), but her personality has improved so much from S1 that I feel it more than compensates for the slight drop in hotness.

I also have a shiny new moodtheme, which doesn't go at ALL with the rest of my layout but I don't really care. I've been wanting an Owen or Gwen moodtheme (Burn Gorman and Eve Myles have such expressive faces) and this one combines both!

What else? Hmm. My Yuletide fic continues apace - 2701 words, 1000 of which are actually in order, from the beginning - and I'm confident it'll be done well within the deadline. I am working 9-5:30 Mon-Tues-Wed-Thurs this week, which I expect will be exhausting. Present-day Lucifer met Firefly-era Gabriel Tam (now slowtimed), and so Aspen and I spent some time giggling and making DOOOOOOM noises at each other. I haven't told the internets how much I love schiarire and stars_like_dust lately, which needs to be remedied, because these girls can cheer me up instantly and unfailingly with an email or a phone call or a package or a snippet of fic or simply by existing in my (figurative) vicinity.

Yo, Mem?

I bought Larklight :D We have it at work. I have a staff discount. I caved.

My feet are, miraculously, not too sore. I'm getting used to being on them for eight hours at a time! However, right now I still have to take out the rubbish and recycling, put away clean washing, do a pile of washing up, go grocery shopping, and cook dinner.

Bleh. I'd rather sit on my ass and watch House and Torchwood.

While I'm off being a grownup, um, everyone should read wisteria_'s screencap review of BSG 3x09. This week's is particularly hilarious and pretty.
