Mmm, yummy Doctor/Rose/Jack fic here:
Slightly Psychic Confessions

And, elo_sf, best use of psychic paper ever. :)

Re-read some of my favorite bits of Goblet of Fire yesterday just because. As I said, I'm going to be all HP all the time this week. With perhaps slight detours like the one above into Dr. Who, as Nine and Jack are just too pretty not to stare at once a week or so.

Also got some cleaning done (hooray!) and a trip to the grocery store so I won't starve to death if I don't make it to one this weekend (which I won't). Then got some stuff boxed up for my mom and even managed to get my wireless working again (go me!). Grabbed some dance numbers from "Devdas" for Alyne, was assured by Amazon that they're replacing the cd that went astray through no fault of mine (yay!), discovered "A Very Venture Christmas" refuses to play on either my computer or DVD player (boo), and even managed two quick workout routines.

I know most folks look at a nice quiet night doing nothing more strenuous than reading or watching t.v. as the ultimate in relaxation. But for me, getting a lot of stuff done is way, way better.

Oh, and 'cause I finally had the chance to upload it, my new icon from the wonderfully talented mister_sunshine, "Sad Vader in Snow" :)

Cautious optimism

Anti-Rove sentiment gaining moment?
via Digby:

Just heard the CNN anchor say "are his days numbered in the White House?" referring to our favorite turdblossom.

This is a very good thing, my friends. Once they start asking that, it's hard to turn things around. Bill Clinton did, but Karl Rove is no Bill Clinton.

Though, of course, the RudePundit knows just what to say to really put a smile on my face:

It is time to destroy Karl Rove - that fat fuck must bear the burden of his sins against this nation as surely as a tail-chasing, abusive cocksman must die alone, diseased, and despised. Rove must be dragged out in public and his pants must be yanked down so we can all laugh at the tiny dick and bean-like balls of this so-called fearsome presence. In the old days, they used to draw and quarter fuckers like Rove, who would, for personal vendetta and political expediency, sell out the good of the nation. But, fuck, horses are a burden these days, so let's tie Rove's limbs to four news vans, each driven by a member of the so-long cowed Washington press corps, and let 'er rip. Metaphorically, of course. Of course.

Also, has anyone else noticed a rather striking resemblance between Rove and Wormtail, or is it just me? Yeah, I know he'd fancy himself more the Voldemort type, but he just doesn't quite have the looks or personality to pull it off. Bet his animagus form would be a rat...or perhaps a candiru.

But I'll let you be the judge, seperated at birth?
Karl Rove
Wormtail
