re: the LJ boycott thing - I think synecdochic's advice would make more of an impact.


PS It's twelve minutes past five and I'm awake.

I was going to add 'do you know where your children are?' but it just turned out too disturbing for words.

Man, I'm tired.


ETA: "I'm sorry, sir, I can't tell you that. It's assified."

I have got a bitch of a headache today. I slept really badly and I went to work for a behaviour management seminar and everything is too bright and I swear something in the corner of my eye is scuttling. Which sounds like a comic by Roman Dirge. Eurgh. I'm gonna nap and then I'm gonna pack and then I'm gonna watch An Affair To Remember because I accidentally tripped and bought it in the supermarket.

Had a revelation today but I always feel faintly embarrassed about admitting to them, because they're always so very '...well duh.' Just, I realised that even when I am feeling good about myself I still have low self esteem because it's not just about feeling low, it's about the reactions of others dictating your mood.

...Look, I'm just not very self-aware, alright? XP

Anyway - good mood of the day is the five day extension I have on my essay, which means it's due in on the 9th, which means I can go to Pontypridd and see liz666 and midnight_violet and lunar_echo and not feel guilty about it in the least. HA.

Igobednow.

I wish I liked the Jack/Ianto relationship, I really do.

Ianto Jones is a fantastic character, capable and intelligent and bitchy and a romantic to a degree that isn't fashionable or particularly healthy. And he is completely under Jack's thumb; perhaps his relationship with Jack is a little more healthy than the rest of Torchwood's - since he apparently knows that there's no use fighting, that he is essentially Jack Harkness' bitch and minion and cannon fodder, should such a thing be necessary - but it doesn't make for a good relationship. If there's to be a dependent relationship, if there's to be unhealthy levels of need and an incapacity to cope without the other person I'd really rather it be on both sides, thank you.

(I guess I'm an incurable romantic, too.)

And the second unpopular opinion of the night, since I'm pondering: I don't like Love, Actually. At all. I can't really remember a single relationship that struck me as romantic, except perhaps for the porn stand-ins, because they were sort of cute.

Yeah. I don't like that film. For the record, amusingly enough, I don't really like Sleepless in Seattle either. I do like The Truth About Cats and Dogs, when the (supposedly) less attractive girl gets the guy through force of personality alone - although seriously, casting people, Uma Thurman as more attractive than Janeane Garofalo? WHAT WERE YOU SMOKING? - so you can totally attribute all of this to my deep-seated bitterness at not being pretty, if you'd like.

...aaand I forgot the other reason I was gonna post. :D

Think Outcast, for a moment. (Except not, but that's far too complicated to explain, so just go with it.)

DO I GO WITH...

Option A: There followed a pleasant interlude in which there was much repetition of 'God, John', 'do that again' and 'Jesus Christ, Rodney, the horses are not watching you.'

OR

Option B: writing actual stablesex.

Now I'm a believer

So you know how I asked for advice a while ago? Well I then proceeded to spend entirely too much money and now I'm an enthusiastic convert. It's like scientology with vibrators!


Nny *: I bought sex toys. I no longer need people.
Nny *: Like, for ANYTHING
