Love for Minotaur

[drakyndra]

After today's classes (mostly boring, except Linguistics, which was fun because we were messing around with phonetics), I went and wandered down into the city for some brief browsing.

And I decided that Minotaur officially pwns liek whoa.

Not only did they have in the new Doctor Who Magazine, which I picked up, because it was fantabulous. And has a a comic that is so unbelievably Ten/Mickey slashy, that I just about died of the awesome reading it.

The comics are now officially canon. FACT.

But, they also had in


Tenth Doctor Action figures! ZOMGtehawesomes!


I ♥ you, Minotaur. You are love.

So, apart from the fact that for no apparent reason, I am feeling utterly dreadful, it was a pretty good day.

Though I have to ask, WTF is with the weather?It's bloody freezing.




And he's all mine. *snuggles*

You know, I've only just looked at that icon? Takes me right back to first year uni, that does.

I love the whole Schrodinger's Cat thing. I even wrote some crack!poetry about it once.

Hee. I rather liked Pavlov's Dog, too.

And I just happen to be listening to Zagreus, one of the Big Finish Audios. It's all rather surreal; and features the very same cat. Only he's 10 feet long and quotes Alice in Wonderland.

Teehee.

Yeah, that was rather good too.

Sounds like that Audio is rather...interesting. Reminds me of the Unitary Authority of Warrington Cat, from Jasper Fforde's books (used to be the Cheshire Cat, but they went and moved the county boundaries)

Bwahahahaha!

Yes, it's quite fascinating. The cat locks the Doctor (Eight, this is) in a box with a bottle of cyanide and refuses to let him out iuntil he's dead. So Doc tries to persuade him that he is in fact dead now. Doesn't work, though; “What kind of cat do you take me for? I’m no ordinary feline; I’m an illustration of the quantum theory of superposition.”

And there's also Peter Davison playing a Reverend pondering the problem of God as omnipotent versus benevolent. Only I can't focus on that because his voice is far too sexy.

This Audio sounds like complete and utter crack, I tell you. I must hear it.

Oh, they all are. Like when The Doctor and Charley meet up with Romana and Doc says: "Romana, this is Charley, my best friend ever. Charley, this is Romana, my best ever friend."

I'm sure I could "accidentally" paste download links...

There's a lovely person on doctorwho_eps who is uploading the entire Eighth Doctor series of audios. I am working my way through them. Rather different to reading a book or watching an ep, actually--I'm quite enjoying them.

*smiles innocently *

Yeah, I've see them up there. The thing is, I am not good with listening to things for long periods of time - I get bored and have to be reading something, or fiddling with something at the same time, and when I do that, I generally start to tune out the sound. So I'll only grab audios that sound like they will very much interest me - which is kind of important with my limited laptop memory right now.

Aah. Makes sense.

And I am going to have to ask for a new HDD for my birthday because I have stuffed mine full of 100 Gb of DW downloads. And season 2 hasn't started yet!

I've been burning them to CD and playing them in the car--makes the 40 minute drive to uni much more interesting!

I was supposed to get a new Hard Drive a while back, but it appears my Mum forgot about it. *sighs* I have enough space for Season Two, though.

I travel to Uni via tram, so I could put them onto my iPod, and listen to that, but I am not on it long enough to finish a story ever (it's less than half an hour, really).
