In order to further distract myself from my thesis draft, it's a Pete/Carl (with much Carl, lol) picpsam - yay!

Comment and I'll give you a letter; then you have to list ten things you LOVE that begin with that letter. Afterward, post this in your journal and give out some letters of your own.
1. Dee Plume - DEEEEEEEEEE! ♥
2. 'Dancing in the Dark' - by Bruce Springsteen. Ties with 'Thunder Road' as my fave Bruce song ever.
3. Dylan Moran - er, it's Dylan Moran. He's even better than tiramisu fried in sugar.
4. Donnie Darko - an awesome mind-fuck of a film. With the added bonus of Jake Gyllenhaal.
5. Dixon Bainbridge - he can survive the Arctic Tundra on the warmth hidden in his moustache :P
6. Dark Chocolate - really dark. The no-dairy kind. OM NOM NOM.
7. Dogma - er, it's Kevin Smith. CATHOLOCISM, WOW!
8. David Bowie - come on, the man is utter genius. That's pretty freaky, Bowie.
9. 'Darkplace - OK. So, technically it's 'Garth Marenghi's Darkplace,' but close enough. Wonderfully silly and clever and full of Richard Ayoade's perfect comic delivery and priest!Julian.
10. Dirty Pretty Things - Carl Barat's post-Libertines band. Sure, it lacks the whole Pete/Carl songwriting dynamic, but it's still very good stuff. Much love.

Am back from spending the last two weeks with AJ. She flew back to NY yesterday, so I'm feeling a little mopey but it'll be OK. Just missing having her around a little, that's all :(
(
Egads! BBtP is coming (ehehehe...now there's a pun that's been done to death, I'm sure). I should get on that...

So went to see The Dark Knight with Kat a couple of days ago. Which led to discussion of Gary Old-Man.
Which naturally led to discussion of Remus/Sirius and the ridiculousness of Remus/Tonks.
Which in turn led to the decision that Kingsley would have been a much better match for Remus and most definitely where he should have gone off seeking comfort after Sirius' death.
Which today led me over to ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/community.gif) pervy_werewolf to read some Remus/Kingsley fic. Of which there is, well, none :( Someone should get on that.

I'm still feeling pretty blah about all my writing, but what can you do? Of course, as soon as I tell myself, "I am NEVER writing again!" what do I want to do?
Anyway, to get myself out of my funk I finally sat down and watched Being Human.
And...absolutely loved it! GAH. Don't want to wait till 2009 for the series to air!
And could Russell Tovey be any more adorable? Really, could he?
Oh! And I saw The Dark Knight on Tuesday. I could gush, but I won't. Except to say that Aaron Eckhart was bloody brilliant.

Also, red sequined Converse:
I can't decide whether to love or hate them. Sequins are so not me...but they're so skate!Dorothy I'm actually rather wanting them. The question is though: can I pull them off? *thinks*

Just posted my fic for 30 Days of Neville over at xnevillelovingxIt's a bit (or, well, alot, lol) wrong. But we'll see how we go, right? I think we will perhaps return to normal Neville-programming for the free day on the 30th, haha. Is it just me, or does anyone else get incredibly nervous about the posting over at rs_games? It's bloody nerve-wracking, this waiting to have work posted. Graargh. :P

Random fannish things today...
I finished watching the BBC's 2008 production of Sense and Sensibility last night.
*Swoon*
I think it may be in line for about a gazillion re-views before its DVD release. Andrew Davies, who did such a fab job with the 1995 Pride and Prejudice, did another fine job in penning this adaptation.
Speaking of Pride and Prejudice, I clearly need a picture of punk!Colin Firth from Mamma Mia!. That needs to happen, haha.
Also - Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog?
DVD NOW.
Please and thank you :P

The video for Robots in Disguise's The Tears (which is, I reckon, one of the standout tracks of the latest album) is out. The make-up and costume is awesome. Plus, Fielding's crazy eyes (shades of Tony Harrison at the end of Party, anyone?). Much heart-age.
Sneaky!Dee and slag!Noel to the max - what's not to love?

Been listening to a ridiculous amount of The Libertines lately. It's quite wonderful, sort of re-discovering them after not having listened to them much since about 2004.
Also, I seem to have developed a taste to Pete/Carl RPS. Anyway, I found this and it's gorgeous: Libertines and The Velveteen Rabbit and some stunning description (a few typos, but I adore it nonetheless).
I blame thank the Boosh for instigating this real-person slash fixation of late (oh Noelian, in all your slashy goodness, lol).
Oh crap! I just realised it's only four days till my posting date for 30 Days of Neville! ("Time management? Ria? I don't believe you've met...").
Better get cracking. Now, to write slashy Neville, or Neville/Ginny (or, maybe I'll write that Neville/Ginny/Luna that's been hovering about in my brain for a while? Hmm...).

Though, oddly, not Boosh-related, haha.
Nope. This time it's about the film adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's The Road. Which is brilliant. And one of my fave books ever.
EVER EVER.
While I'm not really keen on Viggo Mortensen generally, I can see it, which is a good start. Plus, you know, Guy Pearce and Robert Duvall doesn't hurt either. It sounds really promising and I'm quite excited and look, it's a picture:
So yes. The Road, McCarthy, Guy Pearce, squee-age!

I just died from excitement (that's right - I'm talking to you from beyond the grave, muahahahaha...)
Fielding and Barratt and Ayoade, OH MY!

Nothing serious, I just sort of forgot I signed up to write a fic for the Sirius/Remus Fuh-Q Fest...due tomorrow, lol. Still, got it started and am about halfway through. Sure, it's shameless filth, but what can you do? (I mean, apart from, you know, plot - but that's just crazy talk, people!).
So...anyone interested in performing a last minute beta in the next day or so? I'll love you forever and ever and ever (hmm, that's probably more a deterrent now that I think of it *ponders...*)
This is completely unrelated, but I've had 'Rosanna' by Toto stuck in my head AAAAAALL day.
Which is a bit random.

rs_games Round 2 fic done!
And not in a partcularly desperate, frantic rush. Hopefully this means it will be better (hopefully, haha, though I wouldn't count on it. 'S OK I guess...).
This is a bit random but...I was watching 'Party' from season three of Boosh last night, and I don't know how, but my brain went to a very strange Top Gear place: kind of like, Vince/Howard on the roof was equivalent to Hammond/May and Denis the Head Shaman was Jezza looking on. I don't know why, but I can so hear him saying, "I need to go away and re-think a few basic principles."
I guess this is what happens when you watch too much Boosh, Top Gear (despite my complete lack of interest in cars - I mean, I don't even drive) and read waaaay too much slash, lol.

Nicked from the most scrumtralescent littleblackbowI will write a drabble (or Drawble-doodle) for the first five commenters to request one. In return, they have to post this in their journal (if they want). You may request the character and/or the pairing and give a prompt. Ooh, please do prompt me! I can't come up with my own ideas, I need yours, people! ;) *twiddles thumbs in patient hope* <3
