A proper-ish update... finally!

Happy New Year all!

1. Well I've been back at work about half an hour now and have spent most of that sat outside with Karen watching the snow fall *lol* which hasn't really a chance of settling but it's still very pretty =) Part of me wants it to settle as that'd be so cool, but the sensible part of me knows I'm terrified of driving in the snow so let's hope it doesn't, eh?

2. I like Eleven. I've never seen him in anything before but from the interview with him on Doctor Who Confidential on Saturday I like the look and sound of him - he's sort of quirky and strange looking and he sounds interesting - I'm looking forward to seeing how this works. And I realise I could get pelted for even thinking this, let alone saying it judging by a lot of the fandom reaction so far.

3. I rewatched Lost in Austen last week (still bloody wonderful) and Being Human this weekend. I probably shouldn't have rewatched Being Human as it's bound to make me even more meh about the recasting for the series but *sighs* I wanted some original Mitchell and George dammit, and it was so worth seeing it again =)

4. I'm still obsessed with iconning Merlin - had you noticed? I am, however, trying to at least make sure I do include other icons with each post. I just find Merlin so easy to icon, and enjoy it too damn much =)

5. Not sure whether I'm glad to be back at work or not. On the one hand yes, it's nice to get back into a bit of a routine and all that blah, but then again...

6. I'm using this icon as that's how I feel today =)

Hope you're all doing well =)

*hugs*

Re: 2.

I agree with you about looking forward to seeing how he works out as the Doctor. I'm really surprised at some of the reaction he's getting. I like his quirky look and his mannerisms. I'm really hoping for a 'fun' more light hearted Doctor for 11.

Well, you know fandom, they like to make big deals of things. I don't know, looking at the guy didn't terribly impress me, but I haven't watched the whole interview yet. The thing is, I think you have to at least give the guy a shot before you dismiss him completely. Still, Tenants shoes will be hard ones to fill.

1. It started to snow (again) this morning here as well and everything's already covered in white... Looks pretty ♥ but on the other hand, I don't like it at all, because I go everywhere by bike...

2. I agree :D He seemed lovely on Doctor Who Confidential. And he's got great hair.
Dunno, I like him, no matter what everyone else is saying. I'm still sad to see David go, cause he's like the perfect Doctor for me and no one will be able to replace that, but Matt seems like a worthy successor *lol*

3. They're recasting Being Human? Didn't know that.... Meh.

*hugs*

Merlin is so pretty, for so many reasons, that if I start naming them now I might not be able to get any done.

I was even thinking about bringing my episodes to work, so I could peak at him in between stuff, but dude, who are we kidding? I do that, I'm not doing anything productive the rest of the day. *nods*

It`s great to *hear* from you again.

We have snow also, for several days already, and today it is freezing cold also. And it`s surposed to get even colder during the week.

I don`t watch Dr. Who, but I have read several comments, and that made me happy I`m not inot this fandom also, would be too much to handle right now, duh.

And I don`t watch Merlin also, but you`re not the only one getting obsessed with it, so maybe I should give it a try... *g*

I never stopped working during christmas time, so I don`t know if you shold be happy to be back at work or not, nothing that can be changed about the fact anyway, huh?

*hugs you*

Being Human is sitting on my hard drive for like forever. I guess I should finally watch it... =)

Looks like it's "proper" winter everywhere now. We have serious snow since Friday, not ot mention the temperature: -12 degrees today and they say it's going to be even colder tomorrow.

1. It's been snowing here, too :D

2. I think it's lolarious that fandom has erupted like this. I'm not in the DW fandom at ALL and even I've heard about all the wank. It's just ridiculous. It's not even happening until 2010! *hands*

4. I'm just happy to see you iconning! They've been very, very pretty lately and I'm loving your forays into text use (I know I haven't been commenting like I should but I've been very hermit-like with comments over the past week, lol).

5. Work has been sucky over the holiday season since people are on holidays and stuff, but I'm back on my nice shift pattern now, which is good :)

@#2... I wish we had stuff like that show here! But no... it's all about stupid show here -_-... oh well, enjoy :D

Yeah Eleven is quite funny looking but he seems quite promising, I hope he goes well, we will have to wait for ages now to see him in action!

Snow is so pretty! I love it, but yeah, driving in it sucks. It also sucks scraping off your car before work, lol. Stay safe!

i like the new dr as well, i've seen him in a few films with Billie Piper (b/c i watch everything she's in lol) I think he'll be good.

*HUGS*

I like the new guy. And I'm getting really tired of the hate. Give the poor man a chance, people! (At least more of a chance than I'm giving new Mitchell and Annie. I'm sharing your meh.)
