zelda_exchange. It can be found here.
x Got to watch "Ashes to Ashes." D.I. Alex Drake? BIGGEST Canon Sue I've ever seen. She's basically a "Life on Mars" Mary Sue. ("Life on Mars" is the series that "Ashes to Ashes" is the sequel to.) That the show be well written? So very makes up for it. And it's brilliant. And I still can't see Alex as anything other than a Mary Sue. She gets to call her mom a *insert nasty word here*, then hear her mom tell her how much she loves her just before the mom gets -spoiler-. She's drunk, shameless, always right, most definitely hitting on popular male character from Life on Mars, with positive feed-back, and gets to be called a "Guardian Angel" after performing a "miracle". And it's still a brilliant show. *bemused*
x Watched some James Bond movies too. Pierce Brosnan's bond has quite the humour. Cheesy puns for the win. And his first Q was AWESOME. (And M is still very much Love.♥) The vilains were quite colourful too... I wonder if the James Bond series ever gave birth to Graphic Novels?
x Christmas was great, and got me to realize that it's not the big things you miss, but the small ones.
Also a months provision of chocolate only seems to last half a month. Bugger. XP
x For Claude: "It is easy to see how, from afar, Herge, let alone Cuthbert Calculus, can be seen as indulging in traditional French-style philosophical beard-stroking."

That part of the article amused me. :)
x Latest DC files? Meh. But Yay! Yet Meh. Hopefully next arc will be better.
x Black Ice? Hate. I've got a scab on my knee now, and it's a sore knee. :( /end big baby sequence.
x Job Hunting is getting urgent-ish now. Have had a bit of a restart in searching impetus. One admin job that's looking hopeful...
x Hopefully I get to be online more now. :DAnd finally finish typing up that chapter of my french fic!! Yeay?
x Right, what did I miss this time?
