Okay so what do you do when you have a shitty night where you watch something die before you and feel the surge of bewildering helplessness? You also have 3-4 days on your own (including going to London alone) but not alone because family with you but they're blood and not the choice. Do you sit down and try and cheer yourself up with happy movies and GOOD TIMES?
Not if your name is KATHRYN. Instead you download The Stolen Earth and Journey's End (because you caught the first 20 minutes of 'Journey' in work on Saturday night and flailed pathetically about having to work and MISSING DR. WHO OH MY GOD KEV) and burn them to disc (with Magic Knights Rayearth) and then sit yourself down and watch them.
I watched both about an hour ago and am not going to say anything spoilery except DEI HURRY THE FUCK UP AND START MAINLINING THESE EPISODES OH MY GOD.
Oh God, my heart. It was awesome and heart-breaking and some bits made me angry and some bits could have been better and some bits were so fantastic and so right and I cried the last ten minutes. Like the massive sop I am. I loved the way previous threads came back into it (even if they were in ways that tore at my heart) and the Children of Time
And it makes me want to buy all the DVDs and mainline them with someone but I don't have any geeky Dr. Who/Torchwood mates nearby and fangirl about the series with but i know NO ONE HERE who is into it and I have no one to flail with. :(
damn
!!!! Dr. Who

Date: 2008-07-07 05:22 am (UTC)Well, y'know, ol' Deianæra would LOVE to come have a Doctor Who marathon with you, but there seems to be this damned large body of water between you and I! But! If you can breach it, you can join Glen and Jennifer**** and myself for the next Who-a-thon! We're still on the Eccleston eps, but very near to Tennantdom!
****(Yep, Glen's ex-girlfriend; we engage in Who-geeqery together! I swear men think it's hot when their ex and their current girl are in the same room chumming it up. XD )

HIMIT UP?That is so weird you mention Rayearth. Jamie and I just popped in the first disc after us not having seen it for a few years. We went out for sushi, then were like, "Hey, you know what would be awesome right after sushi? Let's watch some osku anime before Jamie has to drive home!" We may or may not have been drooling over Ferio. :d~ Gods, that's still one of my favourite series.
I am rambling to give you somethin' to read and distract you. :D Also! I did not get on chat when I said I would because Glen likes to call me from work every evening at random times, ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ but I am on now, and you're probably in bed. XD

I can't wait for the Christmas Special. It really sucks that we're only getting 4 specials in 2009 instead of a full series. I'm going to go into withdrawal.

I KNOW. I may go into withdrawal with you. :(
