So, after the problems of last week, I finally got my script sorted, proofread and posted today. Not all in one day, only the posting bit was today.

Though that wasn’t without it’s stresses. Which I don’t particularly want to talk about.

Some time late next week early the week after, assuming it hasn’t got lost, I’ll get the confirmation email. Untill then, and indeed afterwards, it’s just a case of fingers crossed and pray to whichever deity you believe in (the FSM in my case).

Downloaded the latest episode of NTSF:SD:SUV today. If you haven’t watched that yet, do so. It’s fucking hilarious.

Also downloaded something I’ve been looking forward to since I heard it was happening. Long time followers may know that one of my favourite films is Oh Brother, Where Art Thou? In fact the only thing I love more than the film is the soundtrack (used to have one of the songs as my ringtone). Easily, easily my all time favourite soundtrack. Well, the film is 10 years old this year and to celebrate this they’ve released a deluxe version of the soundtrack. Disc 1 is a remastered version of the soundtrack, disc 2 is stuff that was recorded for the film but not used and different versions of songs that were used. Bliss.

Oh, if you’re a writer and have a PC, you really should give Scrivener for Windows. They already have a version for Macs and this one is beta at the moment. It really is the canines dangly bits.

Kinda happy that I’ve found a way to put a TARDIS reference into something I’m writing for a competition. It’s not going to be shoehorned either. It will work and make sense.

Can’t wait to see the last episode of Torchwood on Monday. Partly cos I’m reviewing the series for a fanzine (not TTZ). I have three ideas for the next (well the one after the next) issue of TTZ. Two of the things I’m definately doing, but the third I’m not sure about as it’ll mostly be me moaning about being disappointed by something.

Plans for the next few days? Meet friend for drink, crash at theirs till Sunday, Doctor Who, TV quiz shows, F1, sign on and appointment with new place jobcentre has sent me to. Who thinks I should wear a shirt, bow tie, combat trousers and long leather coat for that one? If so, should it be the blue or the new wine coloured bow tie?

Finally, people complain about BBC3 only showing crap. A lot of their stuff is, but then you get stuff like Filthy Rich and Homeless, Young Dumb and Living Off Mum (guilty pleasure), Being Human, Pulse (which should have gone to series). And The Fades. Not aired yet, but watch this and tell me it doesn’t look fucking awesome:
