går i stå på sin line i et sanseløst sekundt

Today I listened to live jazz. This was an amazing experience, not because the music was good (even though it was, it was very nice), but because it was completely out-of-the-blue. Gemma and I were rambling around the countryside (it is absolutely beautiful if you go a little east of university accomadation - all rolling fields of English countryside with quaint little churches and quite lovely houses) when we came upon a farmhouse pub. With jazz music. And really nice, cheap food, and homemade cider (mmm, cider) and did I mention the jazz music? I so rarely have truly out-of-the-blue experiences, so this was quite...extraordinary, I guess.

Last night Gemma and I had a serious conversation - our first serious relationship conversation. It went surprisingly well; we're both very non-confrontational, so having the conversation was a good step, I felt, and afterwards we were able to joke around and today feels *better* somehow - like we're stronger - so that's one worry off my shoulder. I'm still shocked at how easy all this with Gemma is - and how I'm not tired of her yet, or at least of being with her all the time. I usually don't deal well with constant companionship, but as long as I have an hour or two to myself once a day, I love it.

Tomorrow is the last exam for the physicists, so I'm out to dinner, which is worrying me more than it should - it's just that I'm finally going to meet all my housemates next year, and talk with them and I am sort of worried I won't get along with them. I don't need to be BFF with them, I just want them to like me, and I want to like them. I adore Cathrine, of course, and Tamsyn, Tom and Roisin are all awesome, so really there are only three people I'm worried about. I can handle that.

Finally, as my icons probably indicate, Doctor Who is taking up a lot of my fannish mentality, except instead of wanting fic, I'm craving meta and analysis and criticism and I'm blaming all this on the lack of university in my life right now.

I'll never tire, I think, of hearing about you and Gemma. You guys make me calm and happy inside.

I know I always tell you this, but you have nothing to worry about. You're ... you. You'll get along, I promise.

Also, Doctor Who rocks my socks off. That is all.

Hee! I am glad to hear it. (she makes me calm and happy too)

Doctor Who is made from win!

Just as she should. *smiles*

I'm watching "Blink" right now? And I have to keep pausing it because it's just. that. creepy.

[vampirespider.livejournal.com]

Blink is so, so creepy. I watched it in a crowded room, sunlight through the windows, with a fucking steel drum band in the background and it still scared me to death!

I watched it at night. Alone in my room. With a mirror right next to my head (you know the one).

Freak-out!

I'm so glad to hear things are still great with you and Gemma. I don't think I'll ever tire of hearing about you either - your happiness is infectous. :-)

Oh, *do* tell me if you find any good Doctor Who meta. I've been craving some myself, but I left the most active comms on my flist some time ago, mostly because people kept posting spoilers. And I've just been so busy lately, what with the exams and the shiny!new!fandom.

[vampirespider.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I never really tire of talking of her either, so I'm glad I'm not boring you!

I will, but until the 23rd, I probably won't be near the computer much. All caught up in last three weeks of term-type activity. However, after that - to the metamobile! (or something)

:-)

Ah, okay. I'll see if I can dig something up on my own in the meantime. Metamobile actually sounds quite catchy. *grins*

I find that who_daily is quite good for a quick fix, and tends to be spoiler-free.

[phoenixwish.livejournal.com]

I'll check it out. Thanks! :-)
