hello [on a cellphone], greetings, it's me, an outlaw.

1. This actually works for me in many ways: The Birdcage recut so that it looks like a trailer for a drama:




2. LAND by [livejournal.com profile] cthonus: read it. I can't stress how much I love this man's fic, but look:

"Does he?" Ianto asked unable to keep the bitterness from seeping into his tone. "You know what fucking stupid me did earlier? No?" He swallowed. "I told him I loved him." His shame burned on his cheeks. "I lay in his arms and told him I loved him."

Toshiko's hand went instinctively to cover her mouth. "What did he say?"

"Nothing." He spat. "Not a single bloody word."


OMG AND OWEN AND JACK AND DRAGOSTEA DIN TEA. I AM JUST SAYING.

[livejournal.com profile] cthonus, PIMP YOUR FIC! YOU DESERVE A BILLIONTY COMMENTS, NOT THREE OR FOUR OR EIGHT.

3. [livejournal.com profile] help_haiti fics underway. The big one is…well. Hrm. Planning. Post its are posty. Sort of. TOSH FIC IS TOSHY.

4. Chinese New Year menu is missing…three courses. Well, a pork and a soup. Fuckbears. Noodles might be a repeat, but my Bible says that they went quickly last year. But the pork dish has been the same for the past three years, so I think I might try something different. On the other hand, the duck is complicated enough that I maybe shouldn't be trying something complicated. Hrm. And fish.

THERE ARE TOO MANY THINGS TO PONDER IN THE MURKY WATERS. ALSO, [livejournal.com profile] sthayashi, Prepare to come early, because you are going to help me prep and make summer rolls. I will teach you, weedhopper.

5. Remember that the poll for the RPF (Carnivale!) is still open, so if you are interested and haven't voted yet, please go see here. The mods have yet to get back to us, so we might not be able to promote it. In which case, WE SHALL RELY ON YOU, LIKE PBS.

6. Stumbled on another picture of Russell Tovey. Good god, you could fly to Guam with those ears. Still. Cute.

I tried Lady Grey once but she wasn't impressed with me either.

LOL! I much prefer Earl Grey, but getting him shipped over from the UK is sometimes problematic. The American stuff is all smell and no flavor.

oi! where are you getting your tea in america?

[identity profile] planejane.livejournal.com 2010-01-27 09:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Twinings Earl Grey here is different. I'm awaiting a mercy package from the UK. When I get it I am going to mail you some. You'll see. I just hope you don't get the drug squad sniffer dogs at your door!
