In other news, I've been engulfed in Doctor Who all day.
Today was the US premier of part 2 of the Doctor Who episode that would say farewell to David Tennant's Doctor Who forevermore.
On BBC America, they replayed Season 4 all day and the in-between episodes (in-between the end of season 4 and the start of season 5,) of which I only watched one episode - I've already seen 'em.
Then, at 5:45pm, CST, I watched Doctor Who: The End of Time Part 1, Doctor Who: The David Tennant Special and then finally Doctor Who: The End of Time Part 2.
The good Doctor Who is an alien called a Time Lord, and when his body is, shall we say, in need of repair, he regenerates, which makes him change his entire image and personality. He's the same person, memories and all, but with a change in face and mode.
Tennant's turn in the spotlight ended very well, in my opinion. His oldest enemies - himself and his past - were overcome, ending with the knowledge that all ended as it should have.
Now, I can't tell you much without explaining most of the whole series, but I can tell you this: this new Doctor has some large shoes to fill.
I've loved watching Tennant's "The Tenth Doctor" for over three seasons, now. The new, regenerated Doctor #11 will, granted, take some getting used to, but I'm sure he'll follow through with brilliance and humour.
We haven't had cable tv at my house for years.
Now, we have Comcast.
So what did I do after I came home from class today? I watched about 6 hours of cable television. One hour of Phineas and Ferb, the first 40 minutes of Prince Caspian, Step Up 2 the Streets (upon my sister's insisting), Quarantine and Even Stevens.
I really hope this does not become a recurring habit. At least not after a couple weeks (of getting used to having cable.)
On a different note, I'm all better! I've been well enough to be back at work for nearly a week, now (5-6 days?) Which is good. I don't like being sick. Yes, you get to "skip" work, but you feel like craaaaaaapp. :/
So, for some reason I've had Boys Like Girls' Hero/Heroine song stuck in my head all day. So I decided to listen to the album. It was okay until about the 4th or 5th track. It mostly sucked from there on out. Whatever. :|
Oh, and this
(I love that comic. I kind of bought all current volumes [5] of it for myself for Christmas.)
(I needed some reason to actually buy five volumes of anything in one calendar week month.)
