Tick Tock

I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of two totally different people and I don’t know which I’m more excited about: Narayan or Doctor Who. Hmm. Each has his plus points such as, well, Narayan is *real* and The Doctor doesn’t care if I clean my house for him. Come to think of it, Nar doesn’t care about that either. I guess Nar wins. Ooh, but The Doctor will be here first, so maybe he wins. Geez, it’s a toss up!

I started back on WW today. I’m glad I did, and I was a little sad to learn that I had gained back nearly 12 lbs. of the 35 I lost last time. Then again, it’s probably a miracle I didn’t gain it all back plus some! I have two buddies this time, one at home and one from work, so it should be a pretty easy process (as it was last time). Go me!

Tick. Tock.

[Edit: Unless Nar brings the spectacular, The Doctor wins. Oh yeah.]

[Second Edit: It’s 10:00pm. Nar is just now going through Jersey. He totally loses. 😆 ]

I Do!

whologo.jpgWow, oh wow! I just thoroughly enjoyed the Doctor Who 2006 Christmas Special, The Runaway Bride. I’m still not a huge Ten fan, but I can tell I’m going to enjoy the show much more without Ten and Rose together. I’ll miss Rose, but now I can pretend that she’s in Nineland living happily ever after. Yes, I know that completely negates the point of The Doctor, but it’s my fantasy, so nya. While this special was tons (and tons) of fun, there is a serious problem starting to show with The Doctor, and as much as I don’t have a huge attachment to Tennant, I *still* have my worries for The Doctor. What I do NOT want to see is DW begin to get as dark as Torchwood (aka, the Non-Captain Jack show). I count on my DW being a good blend of silly and serious (yeah, maybe with a bend toward silly), and though I appreciate The Doctor’s burden, I don’t want to see him consumed by it. 😮

For a holiday hoot, I highly, highly recommend this one to everyone. Happy Returns Day!

Torched

torchwood.jpgThree episodes in and all I can say is, “It’s gonna be a loooong season, y’all.” This show is nowhere near as fun as Doctor Who, not even as fun as eps with Ostrichboy Ten. The allure of Captain Jack Harkness was his boyish naughtiness. In Torchwood, Jack is just dead. There’s no fire in him at all. He’s like a cross between Chris Noth on Law & Order and Tom Cruise–and you know I hate Tom Cruise. I’ll watch because I can, but this show is already dying a painful death to me. I can’t wait for you guys to check it out and tell me if I’m just being narrow-minded or if it’s really crap.
