computer's working, I'm not

[julesjones]

The ergonomic workstation is now set up, so I can work properly on the computer without worrying about doing in my tendons again. Alas, it is migraine weekend, so I'm still not in a fit state to give a coherent version of my thoughts on Torchwood: Children of Earth. Am contemplating whether to pre-order the DVD set now or wait until the price drops in a few months -- it's not as if I've got around to watching anything but the extras, the greenhouse scene (er, several times) and Ianto's story in Fragments on the series 2 boxset yet.

(I didn't cross-post my LJ posts to DW this week, mostly because I really, *really* didn't want to risk that which should be under cut-tags not being under them.)

Quite understandable. Though I am going to the other way being a crazy enthusiast of Dreamwidth. When I don't crosspost it will just be here on DW since I trust them somewhat more than I trust LJ. And sometimes I just do not want to mess with getting everything just so here and there.

I suppose this might be a bad idea, but for right now I'm getting ready to go full on to DW and only using LJ as a way to keep up with people who are not ready to move yet.

Hmm. Please to describe the, um, ergonomies?

[julesjones]

It got long, so now is in post of its own.

I have been incredibly dirty minded today and had no one to make cock jokes with.

My housemate said to me yesterday:

"Siri you're great....you're like my cock joke and cum joke buddy"

I sometimes think I need therapy....

[julesjones]

Only sometimes? :^)

[siri0.livejournal.com]

Well....the rest of the time I think I'm past help.

So, I'll rent it when it comes out, watch the greenhouse scene a couple times, and not watch the ending...

Sounds good to me!

[julesjones]

Reactions have been mixed, to say the least. Rent first, perhaps...

[spindriftdancer.livejournal.com]

That's the idea. I keep reading all the virtual screams of anguish, and it's not inspiring confidence or a large desire to watch the third season. We'll see...

It's only £15 on Amazon and comes out tomorrow...

[julesjones]

I'd made up my mind to go ahead and order it, and then got an offer below. :-)

I hope that your migraine quickly goes away.

[julesjones]

They're three day affairs, alas. However, if I take the codeine early enough and keep taking it, I usually don't feel too bad, just very fuzzy.

[kalypso-v.livejournal.com]

Don't order it! It's cheap enough for a house-warming present!

[julesjones]

Okay, not ordered. :-)

[kalypso-v.livejournal.com]

It's cheering to know that you fall into the happy-enough-to-rewatch camp.

I didn't like some of the stuff in ep 4/5, but I seem to have disliked it for different reasons to a lot of the Jack/Ianto shippers, i.e. I prefer my angst to be supported by/supportive of the plot rather than there simply to give us the Captain's manpain. Yes, there's an element of "Where's my promised porn, damn it?" as well, but I don't feel as if I never want to watch it again.

I also need to watch it again to be able to properly praise the bits I liked and shred the bits I didn't like, because by the time I'm sufficiently migraine-free to write a coherent essay, it'll be blurring anyway.
