Mostly Clyde/Luke, but in an adorable teenage boy kind of way. (Note: I ::heart:: the Sarah Jane Adventures, because Sarah Jane is clearly a […]
::deep breath:: -I liked it. I have no great desire to see it *again,* but if there was ever a sequel I would be interested enough to google it. -I was sad that Trudy died. Was it really necessary for *both* supporting women on the human side to die? (While both of the supporting men […]
Reasons why I love my job: because at a convention that was (at least on some level) about selling products, I had the joy of listening to a rambling discussion of life and love and creating the world you believe in. I was in the front-ish row, and it wasn’t really a note-taking kind of […]

Really cool people, delicious food, free stuff, and absolutely no one questioning if you suddenly decided to spend the next hour sitting around in the grass outside. Hilarious moment of the day: About halfway through, I […]
