piecemeal
- Having wrestled Microsoft Access into submission (I could use it like a pro in Year 9, thanks to a dull term's work of database manipulation in IT), I now have a mostly-updated address list. If you have not commented to this post here and you would like to be on this list, PLEASE DO SO NOW.
- In other seasonal news, LJ is offering the Give More deal, which means that if you buy paid time as a gift for another user between now and the end of the year then they get the 100 userpics add-on FREE for the duration of the time that you purchased. THIS IS SUCH A COOL IDEA. It's also amusing that you can buy someone a lump of coal for their userinfo page, but I find the concept of those kinds of purchases to be a ghastly waste of money. If you want to buy someone pointless pixels, at least buy them THEIR CHOICE of pointless pixels, ie. icon space. (I suppose that $1 is not exactly exorbitant, but the miserly uni student in me still cries out in dismay at the very thought.)
- Working my way slowly through my to-do list. Currently sticking some files on DVD for my mother, who is even more obsessed with Doctor Who than I am (no, really, she recently rang me to spazz about how she was watching Jude solely for Christopher Eccleston and how she had discovered that David Tennant had a bit role in it too) and who I recently showed the Torchwood pilot. She wants more, and wants more now.
- I am on an enormous PILOTS high. It's great fun.
- This high has been in no way dimmed by![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ingrid_m's fantastic fic The Four Cornered Stone. It's post-'Unfinished Business' Lee/Dee, Dee/Gaeta and Lee/Kara and it's kind of excruciating if you are in any way fond of Lee, but at it's also very wicked, smart, and dark. Like that horrible 99% cocoa chocolate.
- Also along BSG lines: tomorrow's episode, 'The Passage', is the one written by Jane Espenson! Whoo! Battlestar Wiki informs me that it has lots of science (hurrah!) and that it is Kat-centric. If Ms. Espenson writes me Kat/Racetrack subtext of ANY KIND then I will die...pleased.
- If anyone can work out WTF is going on in this moodtheme picture of mine, I would be very interested to hear it.

I see someone's bottom, jeans-clad. Perhaps a head of hair on the right? The glowy thing on what I assume is her shoulderblade's a bit of a mystery, though — burning coal, perhaps? It's seasonal!
Hmm, Espenson. Will this be TWO STRAIGHT WEEKS of Tris-Views-Battlestar? Only Beck knows for sure! Stay tuned, or (fittingly) don't.

I THINK IT WILL BE. Although you could let us watch you and tell you if it is pilotriffic enough to be worth your while.

I can not watch 'The Passage'. Yet. Must finish first disc. These stupid 12 and 14-hour days are really cutting into my tv time. >:( Tomorrow, though. Last meeting that's stupid-long this year, I hope.
