A day in which I did not a lot but had a lot of fun

Sadly I did not get any writing done today but there is always tomorrow

This morning I went to the doctor for my routine check up and was told I need to lose weight (which I already knew). Hopefully going to aerobics twice a week will sort me out.

This afternoon I introduced Dave to Torchwood and he has been going around doing the 'waaawaaawa' thing all night. So glad it's not just me!

This evening we went to a meeting of The British Fantasy Society. It was awesome! I love hanging around with groups of book geeks, who are also into the same movies and TV shows as me. There was squee about Jamie Bamber. LOL

We came second in the quiz *wins but not really*

Tomorrow I think I shall introduce Dave to Supernatural if we have time. What's a good episode to show a n00b, apart from The Pilot. I was thinking Hell House maybe? Or a scary one like Provenance.

Gah!

I had two dreams about driving last night, neither of them very nice

In the first dream I was trying to squeeze the car through a space that was too small and I scraped one side of it

In the second dream I was driving through town when my dad started tickling me and I lost control of the car. I got out, shaking, and refused to get back in again so dad said we should just leave the car in the middle of the road and walk home. Mum-Ra was not amused.

In other, non-dream related news, my parents are going away on holiday the weekend of Collectormania for a week, which means I have to go back to theirs straight after to look after the kitty. It also means I will be driving to work that week. Meep!

I've been having fun watching vids tasabian shared of Michael at Dragon*Con. It's a shame Michael won't be doing any Q&As at Collectormania. He looks like he's having a lot of fun. I like that he's taken Chris along to hold his hand ;)

This was 100% better than The Death of Superman. It made cry several times, seeing Lois, Jonathan and Martha trying to come to terms with what happened and not being able to openly grieve.

It got a bit strange towards the end but I think it was the right way to go. Reminded me a bit of Phoenix (the Smallville episode)

So, I'm onto the final part now. The Return of Superman

Thanks to everyone who advised me on how to do this

Help me, oh wise flist

I've decided it's about time I upgraded PSP since I am still using version 7 which is ancient.

How far forward should I upgrade? Is version 12 good? Or should I go with something a bit older but more reliable?

Suggestions?

A few random things

1. kazzy_cee just asked and my Simon's Cat icon is shareable if anyone else wants it. Just credit me please.

2. Only Men Aloud won Last Choir Standing! I was gutted to find out they were perfoming in The Bay about 5 minutes from my hotel the day we left Cardiff. I suspect they will be touring soon. Will have to try and see them, or at least buy the inevitable album.

3. I miss Cardiff.

4. Time to write some more of my uber-crossover. Just watched Christian Slater on Top Gear and I feel prepared to write Jeremy interviewing Tony and Lex now. I think.

How did that happen

Series 2 of the Iron Man cartoon is actually kind of awesome

I think I shall watch one more episode before bed

Edit: And that was a totally pointless clip episode so one more

Edit 2: And as a reward for watching the boring episode Hulk showed up in the next one. A happy day for me and dj_intheuk
