So, I have to get up early tomorrow. Guess who finally regained her fic-fu? I've been contemplating a prompt from the yuletide resolutions for a while, and I now have nearly 1000 words of Dexter fic, which could use an American check. And a voice-check. Possibly also a canon-check. (Hey, do any of you even watch Dexter? It's good, but gory. And now on ITV, just a few episodes in to season one.)(Um, that bracket was supposed to be asking what Harry said about Deb knowing. Huh.) Also someone to tell me when to stop, because they have way too much to talk about for me to deal with right now. Any volunteers?

And I'm considering signing up to write 40,000 words over the next four months, when that's more than I've written over the past two or three years. And I'm going to have much less free time for the next few months, as well. But I will have over an hour on the bus each day, which I am going to use to catch up on my unread books, but which could also be used for writing. Hmmmm.

I am going to switch off 'nando soon as he is grinding almost incessantly, poor lamb. I haven't decided whether or not to switch him back on. Hmmmmmm.

You wish to come with nos and self on Saturday to look at Barrowman and laugh? Or would teh lame kill you ded?

[kbk]

Probably come, yes.

Wherefore Barrowman, though?

There is no good reason not to look at Barrowman. Even ice-skating across his giant face in Second Life is better than Prozac.

Also if he is booksigning in Borders he will be right next to that TARDIS that sells cappuccino. That will amuse me.

Torchwood star John Barrowman will be in store to sign copies of his fantastic autobiography Anything Goes. Please arrive early to avoid disappointment!

That suggests to me a QUEUE OF FREAKS. What could be more fun? A weird mix of middle-aged women and Whofen. Fantastic.

I was wondering why he was in Glasgow. It does sound quite entertaining.

I bet he gets photographed next to the TARDIS. In fact, I bet he gets photographed buying a froofy cappuccino from the TARDIS.

The Metrosexual Cappuccino TARDIS is his spiritual home. Which should be a fic in some way. I miss yourfutureruler's TARDIS which became a Portaloo out of spite.

Incidentally, I have concluded that I definitely think TARDIS should be Tardis for the Doctor's and tardis as a general term, based on the general pattern of acronyms in English, but there are no words for how much I can't be arsed with that particular source of pointless wank. Maybe the way to go is to talk about LASERs on the OG until someone yells at me.

I would help, being American an' all, but I have never seen Dexter and my life is suddenly exploding all over me in little bits and pieces, requiring that I take care of all of it. Sorry? :(

[kbk]

No, no, that's fine. Americanisms is probably the least important of the three anyway, so I will find a Dexter person somewhere and call it good.

I'm sorry your life is 'splodey; I hope it all settles down soon.
