So when I woke up this morning and checked my email (I always do this in case people have been trying to get in contact with me) and in between my normal junk (amazon and so forth) was an email from Ianto Jones. At first I thought it was Aurelia joking with me again. Then I looked at the address... It was not a Smith email. At this point I was sure I was dreaming. Then I read the email itself. And suddenly everything clicked.

Last weekend, when I was in the process of getting hooked, one of the things I did was to sign up at the torchwood.org.uk site for this rather fun thing they have where you get little clues all through teh week and you try to solve a case. So that was the reason for the email. I still think it is pretty cool that my inbox looks like that.

In other news. my art crit is in an hour. I am a bit stressed out, I didn't get it to do what I wanted but I think it is pretty good none the less. The whole project is here.


I have been having quite a lot of fun with this. and got some ideas for other stuff to do

Yesterday I was at the Lunar Eclipse party we had, and Zoe said yes to training me for telescope maintenance. That is just so freeking cool. Just what I want to do. I am planning on telling Meg soon, see what she thinks. On Tuesday a bunch of us went to Haven, that was pretty cool and I had fun. It is nice to relax every now and again. And that is pretty much it for now..

Oh actually one more thing. I have an idea for a writing project I want to do. An in-character blog. i am not entirely sure if I am sticking it on LJ or blogger. I might even do wordpress but the account I have for now there is used for class stuff so... Anyway, what sort of character would people think is more fun.

I vote for Mad Scientist, because I think you would have the most fun and have the most opportinity to develop character voice. It's possible with a mad scientist to write incredibly outlandish things...and make them seem reasonable. That, and I think it's an interesting challenge to write the persona of an unstable mind.
I also voted for steam punk mad scientist. It could be vvfun.

My second choice (which was very nearly first) was A steam punk sky pirate. Mad scientists meat all types though, in their nefarious bids for whatever kind of power they're seeking.

Be here on lj if you do a blog? So I can keep updated?
I'm kind of very in love with cyberpunk, but that might just be me . . .
well, you see I am kind of in love with cyber punk too. So.. But since this is a much more interactive type of writing experiment, I wanted something people would find fun
Oh man... I wish I got emails from Capt Jack and/or Ianto. Have you seen "Reset" yet? So cliff-hangary. "Adam" is a better episode, pushing all the actors to their limits... but and ending like the one in "Reset" really puts me on edge. I'm downloading 2x07, "Dead Man Walking", as I type this... but I have to go to work before it's finished. Cuuuurses...
All you gotta do is attract the right sort of attention.. ;P

And yeah, I have seen reset. I was in a slight shock for days. I mean noooo! Anyway, I'll be watching episode 7 sometime tonight I think
