King of the Office

1) If you have not seen these adorable pictures of David Tennant and Freema Agyeman you really need to. If you have already seen them, maybe you want to look again (especially at the shot where he is totally staring down her dress). He looks disheveled and she looks gorgeous and they are both so expressive and interactive. It's really rekindling my Martha love and making me want to write sappy fluffy Martha/Ten. Also it makes me want to be Freema because she is so radiant and gorgeous. Basically squee.

2)And then just when I thought that nothing could make be feel more bubbly and happy than those pics: Joss is coming back to Television and it's with Eliza Dushku! There are obviously concerns about the fact that it is Fox (which as [livejournal.com profile] sophia_helix pointed out it means it is sort of like watching someone you care about get back together with their crazy ex again). But they do seem reformed somewhat (like the whole not having canceled Bones thing) and they've committed to 7 episodes, not just a pilot. Mainly it is Joss Whedon making a show with Eliza Dushku and I cannot see any possible way that could not be for the win.

3) Also yesterday I went to a class on preparing Grant Proposal Budgets and Budget Justifications and for the first time I could see a part of my job as sort of like constructing an essay, what with the gathering evidence and such. It was so refreshing and made me actually want to do something for work.

4)Overall this is putting me in such a good mood that I am offering drabble/ficlets to everyone. Please put in requests while the cheerful outlook stays with me. Any canon I am familiar with, any pairing or genfic.

I mean to I just haven't gotten around to it.


I could definitely write that.

YEah, I know how that is. I was planing on having friends over for the weekend oof Thanksgiving and have a Dr. Who marathon, but due to travel time we won't have enough time to do everything, so I am thinking we will watch all of season 3 and then do 1 and 2 the next time we hang out. Christmas Bride all the way through to Last Of The Time Lords.

Yay ^___^

Awww, I am sorry, mean people ^__^

I guess I ought to expect as much, but they are like annoying little mosquitos.

Yes, well, it is work, they kind of do expect you to work ^__^

Wouldn't it be great if people just paid you to watch Bones and Dr. Who, and right stories ^__^ Though I guess if you were paid to write them they might become a chore and then you might lose your inspiration

People should just pay me for existing. And for reorganizing my books, dvds, cds, clothes, etc compulsively.

[identity profile] silver-fic.livejournal.com 2007-11-02 08:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, being paid for existing would be kind of great. My books are actually organized for once, though that sort of doesn't count the ones that are still in boxes, you know, if someone were willing to give me money, I might actually finish unpacking sometimes this year ^__^

At the moment I am looking for income, and I have filled out a bunch of applications, and I am seriously hoping to hear back from one of them, but right now hearing back from any of them would be great.

Looking for a job is the worst.

Which is why I won't leave here even though I am fairly unhappy with it.

It's not horrible, just not great.

WEll, I am glad it's not horrible at least. Wish it was more great though.
