I - am clearly on crack, since I've spent the last few minutes thinking about how awesome it'd be to write about characters in Romeo and Juliet as though reviewing a concept album from a new artist. Romeo would obviously be something ridiculously angsty like Evanescence, Mercutio - all about the women and the weird drug-esque ramble - could be rap...

Yeah. I blame the dreams about Joe Flanigan (who was really quite awesomely hot), Lisa Kudrow, Alan Davies and Jeremy Clarkson. I don't know how that's related to Shakespearean concept albums, but there ya go.

I still have a lesson to plan for today, but I have a pretty clear idea of what I'm going to do with them, I just have to solidify it and plan the resources. And I'm pretty sure I have at least one free lesson and a break time to get that sorted. I have found that the impetus to do well is far higher when the point is to Remain Awesome rather than Stop Being Crap; I already know I'm crap, see, whereas awesome is a huge surprise and feels good.

Unreserved recommendation for two stories, here. I know a lot of you don't read McShep fic, but I really think some of you will enjoy these fics regardless; there's something very modern-fairytale about them both. Mostly I'm thinking of bookelfe, genarti, schiarire and fahye, for some reason, but I genuinely recommend them to absolutely anyone who enjoys beautifully written and wistful-sad stories.

John watched in horrified fascination as Rodney literally choked on his words, strangely-shaped objects spilling from his mouth in utter silence except for his coughing and ragged breath.

I totally came running up two flights of stairs to say something, but I have no idea what it was. Blast that beer. XD I'm watching thoughtcrimes and wanting a Brendan Dean of my own, please, and marvelling at the talented people I like to call friends and I should really go eazt foodables. Foodables will make everything less insanity-laden

;)

YOU KNOWS YOU LOVES ME! IN A VERY WELSH WAY, DAMMIT!
