the moment we've been waiting for
I am so stupidly happy right now! I should not be overjoyed at being back in this falling-apart house with its non-working heat, but I am. To be fair, in large part my joy stems from an impromptu party my in-house friends held in my room late into the night, that at least two of them want to watch Tennant's Hamlet with me, and that I spent most of yesterday afternoon watching The End of Time and then the first two episodes of Life On Mars with ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
feverbeats. I have not watched Life On Mars since ... summer '08? I forgot how incredibly wonderful it is. It is so good that I am not even having Slings & Arrows withdrawal! (Slings & Arrows withdrawal is what happens when I don't watch it for ... mm, two months or so. I can quote most of first season, ask me how!)
I also watched the Spice World film with my dad the other night (no, I don't know either) and it was a fun exercise in British Actor Bingo: Richard E Grant! The woman who played Ida in Impossible Planet/Satan Pit! Cameos by Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry, as you do! Roger Moore ominously stroking increasingly improbable small animals! UNEXPECTED NAOKO MORI! Plus unexpected Mark McKinney, because I cannot escape the Canadians. Anyway, that ... took me back a decade and change, and I may have cried with laughter.
It's probably far too late to save this post, but in a vain effort, I have a FIC (& ART) REC: Boundary Conditions, White Collar, Neal/Peter/Elizabeth: That casual arrogance of perfect obedience: Show me which rule I've broken. Show me which line I've overstepped. I feel like saying "It's by Fahye" should be good enough to get everyone to click it, but: it is about obedience and control and Elizabeth Burke, which are basically my three favourite things about the show, and the accompanying art is gorgeous. I'm also fairly sure there are no specific spoilers, so as long as you've seen any of the show this should be readable.
And now: breakfast! and hot chocolate! in the cold! YAY.

Right! Um, I think the best might be not this week but the next one -- anywhere from the 17th to the 23rd or thereabouts. I have nothing else officially planned that week, and classes won't start until the following Monday.
