- Why does the elevator at work smell like pickles?

- Why hasn't anyone done a Torchwood vid to Rilo Kiley's A Better Son or Daughter?

- I am going to look at the coat in a few hours. It's amazing what I can deduce about someone from a ten minute conversation. Sometimes, I wish I knew less about the world. I'll tell you the whole story (which is likely to get weirder) after I've bought the thing or I've determined it's not the coat.

- I am going crazy for Sam to post chapter 3 of his new fic. I like Sam's work and am often moved by it, but it doesn't tend to eat my head. This fic however -- holy shit. I'm wondering if he's going to give us flashbacks to when they retconned Ianto, and what those last 24 ours leading up to that was like. Everytime I think about it my brain responds which such an intense sent of conflicting signals on it, I'm in awe.

- [livejournal.com profile] schpahky sent me a replacement copy of Shark Attack 3: Megalodon. It feels like a good luck charm (just as, oddly, the initial gift from [livejournal.com profile] hofnarr did).

- I may create a filter for my academic and perhaps wanky thoughts about fandom. So not my little "Dear TW Fandom" tirades, but some thinking outloud about power dynamics in fandom. If you want in, if I decide to do it, let me know. I'm thinking of writing something about a weird power dynamic thing I've noticed, but I need to hear myself think outside the echo chamber of my own head without calling down a shitstorm as I look for the right language.

a few years ago Bust (I think) did an article on homosociality and Lord of the Rings. Anyone know where a copy of that lives online or can possibly send a scan to me?

Academic paper in gear.

hahaahaha. Fuck.
Yup, it's time to vote for LJ Idol again.

If you liked my long ramble about Carlis, cons and getting chosen, please go here: http://community.livejournal.com/therealljidol/192104.html

And don't forget to give love to any entry you enjoyed! (I normally don't pimp the people on my flist unless they look like they need vote help. So with that in mind -- show [livejournal.com profile] bodlon some tickybox love, yeah?)
