I'm feeling much better today, even though I still didn't get much sleep last night. However I'm not going to think about that. What I am going to think about is things that make me go squee! To wit...

• Five Extraordinary Encounters That (Probably) Never Happened by isiscolo, a Slings & Arrows multi-crossover written for the C6D Fic Exchange of \o/


• The fact that I'm feeling much better today and I didn't get woken up by power saws at 7.30am.


• The Where I Write: Fantasy and Science Fiction Authors in Their Creative Spaces project, as pointed out by bonspiel


• These pictures of Jared Padalecki arriving in Vancouver after presumably a weekend away. OMG, look at his arms!


• The recent pics of Paul Gross who has been out and about promoting his new series Eastwick, as well as those taken on the set of his new movie Gunless, which he is appearing on screen with Callum Keith Rennie for the first time since Wilby Wonderful.


• The coffee and cake I am about to go and acquire in Station Street

It's 1.30 in the afternoon and I'm still in my PJs. That's not a bad thing, is it?

I am on holidays from work for two weeks, woot!

So of course I end up spending my first day of freedom being hideously hungover after having dinner with friends B&K on Friday night. Boy, they can put it away! I pretty much spent all of Saturday in bed and only ventured out of the house at around 5pm because I needed bread and milk and cheese for making Mac and Cheese.

I'm feeling much better today, even though I'm still reeling from the whole Torchwood thing, as is much of fandom I suspect. I've been comforting myself by reading schmoopy J2 fic and reminding myself at just how pretty Gareth is when he's all done up in a suit and tie. And buying vintage sewing patterns on eBay. Yeah, my ways of coping with bad news can be a little diverse.

This little thing that has popped up all over my flist has also made me very happy. Very happy indeed :~)

Oh boys!

I took a sick day today because I woke up with a sore throat, a stuffy nose and feeling somewhat off balance. therefore I took the day off.

As it turned out it was a gloriously sunny day and when I went to Station Street at lunch time to grab a coffee, I briefly thought about popping up the Darn Cheap Fabrics in Heidelberg or going for a look around the shops in Rathdown Street. However after a while I came over all wonky again so I went home and had a bit of a sit down. By 3.30 I was wondering if it was too early for a glass of wine so I assumed I was feeling better and dusted and vacuumed the flat. Not sure how I went from 'wine' to 'housework' but my flat is now nice ans shiny clean *g*

I have been trying to avoid reading the reports from the Supernatural con that was held in Sydney last weekend because I was all, woe is me my three current favourite hot guys were in my country and I couldn't be there, woe! But Of course all the reports littering my flit sucked me in and now I'm all damn, why wasn't I there looking at cute boys being cute together? Why oh why did Z have to have her third birthday the same weekend that my current TV boyfriends were in the country? I'm sure my sister, who possesses very few baking skillz, could have managed the pink, pretty princess butterfly cake on her own. *pouts*

I'm knitting hats for small children and OMG, it has been such a fraught experience. For some reason my knotting mojo is completely off and I started and restarted M and Z's hats about three times before I finished them. Even now I want to redo M's hat again because I feel it's a little too short and she'll grow out of it before winter is even half over. I'm currently doing F's hat and one again I've had two goes at it. And of course I have to be adventurous and try something more than the basic cable twist that I usually do. Note to self: do not attempt a C3L after having consumed more than one glass of red.

My nose is all blocked again and of course I've run out of tissues. Meh.

*reaches for the TP*

This has been seen all over my flist but it bears repeating. Repeatedly!

This has been seen all over my flist but it bears repeating. Repeatedly!

The day started out bright and sunny, but has deteriorated into gray and gloomy since lunch time. However none of that matters because it has been such a great week for fandom!

First, of course, there was Jared and Jensen being super adorkable at the Red Bull Soap Box Derby in Vancouver.

( Look at them!!! Don'tcha just want to put them in your pocket and take them home with you? )

Then Callum stepped up to the plate with his debut episode as Lew Ashby in Californication. Of course c_regalis had to do some pic spam, as you do.

( Hi, Lew, how's it going? )

But then the Js started to feel neglected so a visit to the SPN set by Buddy TV brought us the news Jared and Jensen are now roomies, the idea of which made every fangirl's ovaries go boom! Warning, the article does contain spoilers for unaired episodes so click with caution.

But really the week has belonged to Paul Gross and his amazing ability to become even better looking with each passing year. Of course all the TIFF photos have been doing the rounds. scriggle and sam80853 among others have been posting picspam galore, but then yesterday eskarinasmith posted a link to Paul's Sharp For Men interview and accompanying OMG GUH! photoshoot.

( Just, GUH! )

In conclusion: fandom rocks!
