If I Had Known The Pain *Hee. I typed "Coors". I'm just obsessed with alcohol.
Bloody wasted. And a bit manic and light-headed too, I fear. Not that there was any time to relax as all the customer diskettes came in and a truckload of month-end data was released so I was running reports like buggery. Some of which came off OK, some of which will have to be re-run tomorrow as they're still not all there. Groan.
I was feeling very nostalgic today for my Pasdar experience at Collectormania Manchester last year. One of my LJ users posted an interview with him in which he looked distinctly uncomfortable and shy-seeming and I'd commented on how he'd been a bit shy with me at the autograph table (and less so in the photo booth, hee), and she'd wanted to know all about what he'd said and done when I met him (she's met him several times and is on hugging terms with him because of all the support she's given to him for his play
Atlanta and the
Heroes actors and writers during the strike and whatnot), so I linked her to my blurty entry about it and then read it myself. Several times. That was such a brilliant weekend...
Mum called me this evening to slag off the ending of
Doctor Who (she only saw the last fifteen minutes properly so is not really in a position to have seen all the good stuff). Dad was protesting that he loved every minute. It's funny when my parents are being geeky. As for me, I'm philosophical about it now. I love my fandoms for the way they can rip me to bits sometimes, but it's also a relief when I can step back, wipe my eyes, blow my nose and remember it's just a show. (And of course it helps to remind myself that to get too involved is to end up drunkenly PMing The Pasdar's YouTube account. NEVER AGAIN. Oh, the shame.) It's a little hard to remember this philosophy when it's
Buffy Season 7, mind you. [wink] Although even that has its (very good) moments, so I'm just grateful to have so much good Tee Vee. Verily, it is a light to me in dark places when all other lights go out. [/nerd] And apparently
Heroes S3 is going to air at the same time in the UK as it will in the US! AWESOME. Not so my
Supernatural and
House crack though, I'm guessing. Oh, I am such a junkie.
Speaking of Tee Vee, a little something for all you
Hellboy II fans who may not have seen it elsewhere...
Hellboy gets himself on some popular US shows .
"Booyah!" Bweeheehee.
And now to go to bed and read Pterry's
Making Money, which is finally out in paperback. YAY!
