First day of vacation! I made

tempeh wingz and "bacon"

two loaves of chikin-flavored seitan, much to annlarimer's horror

a checkerboard cake with Strawberry frostin'. A neopolitan cake, if you will. it will either be delicious or something i'll regift to the co-workers. I inhaled a lot of cake batter. I only regret it a little.

Now i'm in the living room with a blanket on my lap, a purring Casey stretched out on my legs, Googlechatting and exploring Comcast on Demand. Oo, Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid, you say?



The last two episodes of New Who are like the short story version of the old show, and I mean this as a compliment. Donna Noble makes me realize how little I can empathize with the twentysomething angst. I like her compassion. I like how she can pry herself away from the Doctor to notice everything around her, unlike previous New Who companions. And I think she has terrific bosoms. Mwah!

Okay, my one tinhat theory about why the Doctor's song is ending soon: The Master and the Doctor are going to bodyswitch in the series finale. That way Tennant can do Hamlet and John Simm can play the Doctor to make my slavering fangirl fantasies come true, but for a limited time only, as the sale papers say, then they'll bodyswitch again (*slobber*) and Tennant will go back to being the Doctor until 2018.

The Master's dead, you say? Since when did that ever matter? Of course, this all depends on 'the song's ending soon' meaning anything to begin with. After three years of New Who I've been taught that nothing they say or do means anything from episode to episode. Apparently this is a sign of their genius or a head injury.

I love that theory and I love you for thinking of it.

(Bodyswapping makes about as much sense as "Oh hey, I think I'll decide not to regenerate" did, anyway.)

My tinhat is the shiniest of all!

It also explains all those sightings of David Tennant and John Simm last summer-- John Simm was iffy on the whole deal and needed to be wined and dined a bit first. :D

Yeah, wtf was that about? Maybe a year with Blue Fairy Jesus screwed him up royal.

Man, Tim McInnerny has not been treated well by the Age Fairy.

On the other hand, I mostly remember him from a television program 20 years ago (HOLY CRAP) so, like, yeah.

And shouldn't the goddamn episode have been "The Song of the Ood"? Makes more sense in a storytelling of way.

No he has not. Gracious, I still have a mental image of him as Captain Darling, unshaken even from watching him in Edge of Darkness. He is so good in EoD, and in DW. He never raised his voice. He never had to, he was that scary.

nd shouldn't the goddamn episode have been "The Song of the Ood"?

You know, you're absolutely right. It was the song that drew them back to their home planet that was important.

And because the Ood remind me so much of cats, I would like to share my little goofnut Casey Katt's song.

Feeeeeeeeeeeeeed meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...

I hear it all the time.
