Currently, we are waiting for our next Buffy and Angel box sets to arrive. I believe Patty expects them today.

Plans! Are coming together. I have generalized knowledge now of when Patty will be visiting her family in Ohio (yay, she won't miss Pride, yay) and What to Expect at the Conference is becoming more clear. I've given up worry; it's all constructed paranoia anyway.

Yesterday James Moran tweeted something funny and bitter about enjoying the exciting news before the Internet came and ruined it all, and I told him the Internet was very, very happy and then he tweeted back at me about his dinner, and that was all lovely. And then, of course, by the time it was dinner time here, someone was wrong on the Internet. Which, in fact, doesn't mean anyone was wrong at all, just that conversations had started to be like that. Oh, non-canceled TV show fandoms you are hard, hard on my heard.

For me, I'm grateful for an S4, because my brain instinctively finds a way to explain shit the show doesn't/won't. Will we see a grieving process from Jack about Ianto and Stephen? Well, lord knows how many years it will have been for him, so what we're graced with will likely be very small. However, seeing him go on is such a better feeling (I think! remember how I said Day 5 couldn't hurt worse than Day 4?) than Ianto's death being the end of the particular fictional world that's Torchwood.

Also, damn I'm glad to know what's going on with the show before I tackle the chapter proposal I'm doing. The upcoming season of unknownness has some meta awesome to it for that.

Anyway. Torchwood. We all feel stuff and in many cases bring a lot of random expertises and inside information to the rumour table. I'm going to try not to play Someone Is Wrong on the Internet, because, of course, that someone might well be me.

I am reading the Doctor Who book with the Neanderthal in it.

I have started another

kink_bingo fic, but with a lot of work on my plate, WIAD, and the fact that more than any of that I want some quality Patty time especially now that ti's not too hot to think out, you get to wait for a while.
