Good morning, 2011!
Well, okay, afternoon. Er. On January 5th. But still, we all survived another year and didn't blow up any planets, which is very nice indeed.
I spent New Year's Eve drinking cheap wine and eating cheese and watching Sherlock with my best friend, which brings the number of people I've gotten addicted to this show to exactly two. (Sa', my dear, I adore you, but get your arse in gear and watch the damn show.)
My family seems to have gotten the message, too, re: SH, because Christmas got me not only the complete novels and stories, but also the Private Life and the first season of the Granada series (first impressions: Jeremy Brett has the most incredible eyebrows ever, and Burke's Watson is absolutely adorable. Especially this — 'Shh, Watson! this is srs bsns, this man is clearly quite easily flustered, will you please stop laughing — oh, sod it. BWAHAHAHAH.')
And then there's the added wonder of turning a corner whilst trying to juggle a Starbucks latte and two bags and getting a faceful of SURPRISE CUMBERBATCH.

This is deeply disturbing, guys. Le nouveau détective du 21e siècle. Gnk.
i love how it's been like four months since i first watched this show and i still get ridiculously excited at the sight of them

Mebbie my fic will be finished soon and that will alleviate it some.

(Oh, and Happy New Years XD)

Date: 2011-01-07 03:22 pm (UTC)I am well, dear! well, as well as 'swamped by uni work' can be. Otherwise, well — completely and utterly addicted with Sherlock, as you can see. ;) How about you?
Happy New Year to you do, hon. &hearts

Date: 2011-01-07 09:19 pm (UTC)That's good, minus the 'swamped by work' part. I'm swamped by college prparations, scholarship this, scholarship that, why can't they just give me the money without so much dang paperwork!? Yes, I've noticed that! But I can't find any of the episodes to watch (because I'm interested in what all the fuss is about) Know of anywhere online? I'm still hooked on Transformers though and, in my boredom, I sometimes flirt around to other fandoms. I've been reliving Inuyasha the past couple of days.
And may many more follow!

As for Sherlock-watching: you can find the first and third episodes here; you should totally watch at least A Study In Pink, at least, and then try and find The Blind Banker somewhere before going onto The Great Game.
G'dluck! &hearts

Also, is Sabrina supposed to go to Disney World over here this year or did I imagine that?
