It's as common as something that nobody knows

The essays have ben conquered. Oh yes. As of 11.45 am, too. TRIUMPH!

In completely unrelated news, I hope all the Torchwood fans on my friends-list are already reading this, but I'm going to rec it anyway:

inthesestones. It's a collection of IMs, emails, reports from the Torchwood team, interspersed with prose interludes and it's just gorgeous. Although rather Ianto and Jack centric (not that I'm complaining), it's really good for all characters - I'm particularly fond of the IM conversations, which tell us more about the characters than the ones on the Torchwood website - and it manages to show how the team changes over the course of series 1. Very, very highly reccomended. Also! It's worth seeing the journal *itself*. The graphics are quite neat.

Speaking of Torchwood, I am now only missing the middle five episodes of series 1 of New Who. Huzzah! And I just watched 1x04 - Tosh's met the Doctor! And am I the only one who'd thinks it would be cool to have her try to ask Jack out about the Doctor? Just, you know, mention this humanoid alien she met once, very nice, calls himself the Doctor, and have Jack spazz out completely? That would be amazing.

Then again, I just really want Tosh fic. You know what would be amazing? Tosh/Mickey. *nods* Or, you know, Tosh/Hot Police Woman from 1x08. Tosh needs more love, really she does. Everyone forgets how awesome she is - and snarky!

In other news, I wish I could take my friends with me back to England. I was over at Tess' last night, and I'm going to miss her. Again. Not to mention Rasmus, who I also saw today - we went up to the baker's and had tea and cookies and generally acted about 50 - and Oskar. And Sofie. And I'm terrible at phoning people just to talk, which is silly, because I enjoy just talking, I just...I'm afraid of phones. They're freaky.

ETA: John Barrowman is made from pretty - not that that's news!

OH JOHN BARROWMAN PLZ LOOK AT ME WHILE SMILING LIKE THAT AND WEARING GLASSES, 'K?

Also, I quite agree wiht you. Phones are scary. Also known as the reason I'll never become a telemarketer, despite the better pay (and it's just freakish that telemarketing pays *more* than what I'm doing right now. *sighs*)

And, darling, light of my existence: I'll miss you too. Dreadfully. But I'm planning on visiting you when you've gotten settled at your new place (when are you moving there? I've forgot.) and when I can get off from work.

And? inthesestones is *awesome*.

Uhm. Yes. That's pretty much my reaction, yes.

Phone are weird! I'd hate to be a telemarketer too - I'd fall over my own tongue. *hugs*

Moving in on the 1st of July, baring any disasters *knocks on wood* YOU HAVE TO COME. At some point!

It is. It really, really is. (Also! Hot!)

Grnngh. Guh.

So would I. *shivers*

I WANT TO VERY BADLY! Preferably before that, but that would mean BREAKING RULES and I am not good with that sort of thing. (This is where you reassure me, k?)

Oh my god, it *is*. Jack/Ianto is... well, love.

Seriously, it's no problem. The rules simply indicate that someone else shouldn't be *living* with you. As in permanently. As the subwardens say, just keep them out of the dining hall, and all will be fine.

Jack/Ianto is confusing as well. It's...not fitting into any of my standard pairing boxes. *looks at it*

... YAYE! Um, will start to approach subject of a holiday with my boss, then. Any particular weeks that are good/bad for you?

It is. I mean, I'm not exactly certain what they *are* to each other, in canon. *Are* they sleeping together? I... have my doubts. But then there are so many things that indicate otherwise and OMG CONFUSION. But also hotness, so it's not like I *mind*.

[vampirespider.livejournal.com]

Uhm. As long as it's not in week 7. Or in April (since I'm home for all of April, t'would be a bit pointless). Apart from the COME WHENEVER! *hugs*

Exactly! *nods at your wiseness*

*tentatively offers week 10 as a possibility (once she's checked with her father, who is Not At Home)*

[vampirespider.livejournal.com]

Absolutely doable!

[lattara.livejournal.com]

Fan*tas*tic. Now I only have to check with me da and me boss and we'll be mostly set!
