The Aviary

The thing about Megan is that, although we quite often don't get along and are usually interested in different things, when the same things catches both our interest, we are oddly compatible in a fannish way.

Hi, Megan and I went to see Inception again.

And it is more fun going to see things with other fannish people, so you can lean over and make jokes and little comments (Megan when Cobb goes to get Eames in Mombasa: "Because they needed someone super-cute on the team." Me: "Why? They already have Arthur.") and discuss ridiculous shippy things in the car on the way home (Megan ships Arthur/Ariadne whereas I, rather predictably, am mostly reading Arthur/Eames). And I don't have to feel quite as nerdy about getting movies from the library because they have Joseph Gordon-Levitt in them, because Megan has already admitted to rewatching Romeo + Juliet. (We are both drawing a line at watching 3rd Rock from the Sun.)

Which, I suppose, is why we keep hanging out, even though we often irritate each other tremendously. Because it's nice having a fellow fangirl right there in the family. 8)

So, tonight in my Farscape rewatch, I got to Won't Get Fooled Again.

OMG, you guys, this show, I love this crazy frelled-up amazing show.

This has been your squee of the evening.

And then I watched The Eleventh Hour and you guys, I like the new Doctor so much. And I like Amy. And I love love love the new TARDIS redesign, with all the steampunkish bits and bobs and the blown glass in the central column. Totally excellent.

Alas, I do not have time to watch the next episode before my concert this afternoon. But! This evening, I can watch both Doctor Who and Farscape. Surely the best use of my time ever.

I am excited about Doctor Who again! This is completely wonderful because I thought that my love had died but no, it was just waiting and now it is back and I am all a-flail! Hurrah!
