I need a holiday.
Just feeling lethargic and fed up at the moment. *sigh* So I decided that a change was needed - initially I wanted to make my layout Christmassy, but obviously the Who-fandom hides all their seasonal banners somewhere secret that I can't discover. Does anyone know of a good place? (NOT Ten/Rose. I think they're lovely, but...) Oh, and something TW would be very welcome too - I just want to make everything all red and green and rich and festive.
Actually I already have the perfect picture/banner, except it's a rather spoilery promo picture for the Christmas episodes. Well, it's only *that* casting spoiler.

What do you think? Will angry spoiler-phobes be asking for my head on a platter if I put it up? It is very, very lovely.
So to satisfy my need for change I changed my mood theme (something I've been meaning to do for ages). Not that I didn't love my late-season BtVS one, but I'd had it for *years*. And I needed some more Ianto in my life. (I might write about my feelings on knowing that there'll be a S4 of TW once I've worked out what they are...)
Anyway, in positive news, the BBC have put up an old interview (Feb. 2008), where Catherine Tate talks to David Tennant, so I shall put that on to cheer me as I sort out all the washing (deep sigh). And then it's back to the Christmas cards. Meh. As I said, I need a holiday...
ETA: Omg, that interview is one of the most fabulous things *ever*! ZERO spoilers for DW, and lots and lots of chat about anything and everything that DT has done! *is smiling now*

Stupid people over spoilers. I don't think it's a spoiler when it's in the BBC preview.
no subject
I tend to avoid previews like the plague... except this year we've been so STARVED for anything Doctor-y that I too was glued to the screen. Repeatedly. Christmas NAO indeed! (Donna! DonnaDonnaDonna! And Lucy! And... everything! *is impatient*)

Heh. I think I like how your brain works, and will probably follow your advice! :) Also - hello! I'm not sure we've actually 'spoken' before? (I am *useless* at keeping up with people who friend me. I can't even keep up with my flist...)
no subject
Glad you like my random thought processes. I figure if the BBC gives it away.. they want people to know. I didn't really think about the fact that there are fans not like me who'd avoid previews..
no subject
And now I'm all tongue-tied and flattered. :) Terribly happy that you like my fic (esp since it's been eating my head for the past... forever!), and hope you'll like the sequel (once I get round to writing it). If only there wasn't this thing called RL that kept getting in the way.
I friended you umm, last week I think. (totally not a big deal you didn't see. I'm used to just following authors like they're communities hehe.)
Oh, I think a lot of people do that! And you're welcome to lurk as much as you like. :)
Glad you like my random thought processes.
Oh I'm a great fan of randomosity! (The spell checker says that's not a word. I disagree.) Thank you lots for weighing in!
no subject
I may lurk, I may not lurk. To be honest... it depends on what rl throws at me :) I'll probably pop up here and there to give my two cents. I like making new friends too.
You are a very good writer. It's made me jealous. Yay sequel. Get to it nao nao nao. J/k. I know they just don't get written overnight. If overnight stories were true, my fanfics would be done.. instead of languishing in an almost abandoned state. Hell, I'd have more work done for my rl creative writing class if that were true...
Randomness is wonderful. I find life is boring if it's all normal and predictable. I like that word too. It's up there with confuzzle for me now. Randomosity!

Sad, isn't it? (My RL impediments are three [adorable] little girls. Love 'em to bits, but...)

Sounds perfectly sensible. Presuming I ever say anything interesting. *g*
You are a very good writer. It's made me jealous.
::meeps:: Also, thank you! I'm usually in the being-jealous-of-other-writers myself, so this is a strange (but nice!) feeling.
Yay sequel. Get to it nao nao nao.
Heee! I've got whole scenes playing out in my head, repeatedly. I'm looking forward to getting rid of them!
Hell, I'd have more work done for my rl creative writing class if that were true...
I really ought to do something like that. Maybe next year...
I like that word too. It's up there with confuzzle for me now. Randomosity!
Fun words are always of the good. I'll add discombobulated, just because I love saying it! :)
no subject
I can't really help you with your banner but the one you've targeted is certainmy Chrismassy enough! Nice.
Lends you out a flask with some "courage" in it to help with your cards.
no subject
Yeah, I've seen others feeling the same. I'd like it to be Christmas *now*, and someone else could do all the preparations... (along with all the other, daily, stuff.)
but the one you've targeted is certainmy Chrismassy enough! Nice.
Isn't it? Festive, and yet ominous. (Really, it should be Christmas NOW! *is impatient*)

Thanks! (I'm gonna need it...) Although for once I've started early - sent some today! - so hopefully I'll have them done in not too long. (I'd love to do one of those computer Christmas letters, except I'd have to write it in three different languages, and that defies the point.)
Anyway, here's my Christmassy Spuffy icon that I always get out at this time of year. *blows dust off*
no subject
Weird, though - for just a second I thought JM looked oddly Spiky. So to speak...
no subject
Someone at the BBC has a good eye! :)
Not really a spoiler for anyone who's kept even half an eye open.
That's what I've been thinking too.

I'm *sure* you meant to write 'JS'... *g* (And oh, the blonde hair - it slays me!)

It does rather... (I am fangirling RTS to a ridiculous extent now! He likes giving people what they want! *g*)

I love the pic. It's a leeetle spoilery, but nothing anyone who's watched the trailers (and is there anyone who would care who hasn't?) hasn't already figured out. At least that's my thought for the day, which I'm not sure you should count until the coffee finished brewing and I caffienate my brain!
I'm gonna miss DT. He showed up (to my surprise!) doing the intro on Masterpiece Theater. I've never minded before that the intros were so short!
I watched that clip back in the day. What a fun interview!
no subject
No worries - I think I've made up my mind to use the one I've got, cause it's just that awesome. :) (It's awkward not shipping the main ship in a fandom...)

Oooh, neat! And yes, we'll ALL miss him. But for the Doctor's sake, I think a change is good. *pets poor emo Ten*

It cheered me up muchly! *draws hearts around CT and DT*

Also, thanks for the link the other day. The previews filled me with dorky glee, and made me long for cable. Oh well, I squee vicariously.
no subject
I love my show. I luuuuuurve my show! (This vid omg!)
Although I have to agree with the other commenter that for a moment I looked at it and went 'Spike? Huh?'
The blonde hair is a master-stroke! (Pun totally intended!) And I adore how he looks like a mischievous teenager. "Let's destroy the world, yay!")
Also, thanks for the link the other day.
Oh, my pleasure. I remembered seeing people tearing their hair out, and others directing them to BBCAmerica. :) And it is AWESOME, isn't it? *g*

It's just so gorgeous! (And I can't find anything else that I like...)
I feel a bit silly being so careful, but I have yet to mention the Master outside a cut yet.
Same here! And I'm debating with myself over whether to watch the latest trailer - I sent your cut longing glances, but have so far stayed away. *is conflicted*
How about a notice that anyone who is pure of casting spoilers might want to bypass your lj for a couple of weeks? Or at least use style=mine.
Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. Now once I've got rid of most of the children (one is going to her dancing lesson, the other is off to York with her auntie), I'll sit down and decorate! :)
