As soon as I go into rhapsodies about the Animorphs, who should appear on Supernatural but Rachel! And she was awesome and gun-toting like whoa. She seemed much prettier too somehow, although she looked exactly the same.

In other news, Little Britain is my new favorite show. I don't actually watch most of it; I just fast forward to the parts with Anthony Stewart Head getting groped each episode, and those two minutes are SO WORTH IT. (Wow with Veronica Mars stealing Brad and Janet's lines in their dialogue and ASH being gay and lovely, I feel very Rocky Horror all of a sudden. I totally had all the songs stuck in my head after hearing just those two lines on VM. So annoying. PS: LOGAN WITH A GUN YES AND TIED DOWN AND BEAT UP YES THANK YOU THANK YOU.)

Oh, ASH. I *loved* him as Oliver; I loved him as Giles; but ASH as the Prime Minister is just so so so happying. He is all powerful and lovely and never breaks character. It's like a character from a real show got stuck in this sketch comedy show, with VERY PLEASING RESULTS. Thank you, boy_touching, for alerting me to this.

I was laughing hysterically last night at things like









Hee, I love how they make like the gayness is a normal part of British social interaction. Wheee!













BBC=LOVE.

Aww, Fruits Basket... that was a good one. Don't know why they don't realize it... I'd get much more enjoyment out of that than never-ending Inu Yasha. I suppose that's why they ended Cowboy Bebop as they did.

Oh no, I got my trip to Paris out of the way quite a while ago, before the car-burning frenzy started. I actually flew, as it was cheaper and easier than getting a Eurostar ticket (because of the VAT; they don't tax plane fuel, but they do tax train fuel for some reason that I don't quite comprehend). Though taking a train from London Waterloo to some other country would be a cool experience in and of itself...

What about you? Got any little journeys planned? The CCC people are only a train (or two, or three) away.

Didn't stop Cowboy Bebop from making a movie, though. Not that I'm complaining.

I'm glad you weren't car bombed. That is always my Goal in world travel. Did you go with a group of hapless international students? What did you doooo there? You're all gray on aim so I can't pester you for details.

Yeah I haven't talked to any of the CCC people because then I'd feel obligated to go to Tokyo to meet them. Too far away! So lazy! The principal of Nishi keeps pestering me to visit Asuka, so I'll have to do that. And I may go with boy to see his family for New Years. Christmas shopping bah humbug.

Yes, not dying is a good goal to have in international travel. Hence my aversion to places that require plague immunizations and the like.

Christmas shopping is great! Even if it does include Poundland, which many people's shopping in this city seems to... one of the flatmates said there was actually a queue to get in at one point. Talk about it being the thought that counts.

So, am now ramping up the Veronica Mars viewing (as opposed to, you know, preparing for Monday's presentation). I do like the plot, but some of these actors need help with their crying. "But I need to find my mom(my)! (insert petulent face) *sniffle sniffle* ..." It's not quite cutting it.

OMG LOGAN'S CRYING IS WONDERFUL. ::pets his little woobie face:: And yes actual plot is always a bonus.

Poundland? Really? Is that like the Dollar Store?

Re: You and your TV shows...

Yes, yes it is. Though I think you can buy stuff of slightly higher quality with a pound than a dollar.

Re: You and your TV shows...

So did you and your international house homies go Wild in Poundland? Did you buy many Christmas presents?

::pouts:: I still want stories about strange French gentlemen. Your pictures of the Mona Lisa do not appease me.
