Decisions, decisions...

My throat is feeling rather sandpapery. In fact, my throat has been feeling rather sandpapery for a few days now, which I attributed to a lurking hangover, but am now forced to concede may be due to something else. I am supposed to be having a lovely dinner with friends tonight, but am tempted to just head home and have some of my mum's home-cooked food and acquire magic health points. (Yesterday's raid on the parental fridge was a resounding success, with several meals and vegetable health-related items pilfered.) OTOH, dinner with friends, always a plus, and I haven't seen them for a while. (Saturday.) So I think gulping some paracetamol might be my best bet, and then possibly having a shorter (shortish?) day tomorrow.

In the meantime, I am trying to write a setof report guidelines that have grown from a sensible 3 pages to an unwieldy 7 pages. Nobody reads 7 pages of report guidelines. To the red pen of doom!

(Also, I watched Doctor Who 5.3 and wasn't impressed, especially as I am also currently watching The Talons of Weng Chiang. On the one hand, massive, massive race!fail. OTOH, plot and script and acting to blow you out of the water (and a companion to make me want to ship it liek whoa. Is there Four(/&)Leela out there? Preferably with her playing bodyguard?)

I probably have more to say on the subject of Who, but my overall (non-spoilery) impression is that the acting is spot-on for both 11 and Amy, but the last two scripts have felt rather under-developed, which is a shame. Maybe there is better to come as they get into the swing of it?)

As far as I know, the big Leela ship is Leela/Romana, due to the audios in which they have a very slashy relationship. (They never meet on screen, but Leela does end up on Gallifrey at the end of her companionship, and in the audios Romana later hires her as a bodyguard when she becomes President.)

I wouldn't know about Four ships, though, because Four is one of the few Doctors who doesn't do anything for me. Which is a big heresy, because hey, Tom Baker, Most Popular Doctor Of All Time, etc. But I like the others all better.

I find myself somewhat ambivalent towards 4 (in all the 1 hour I have seen of him *g* no snap judgements on my part LOL!), but massively shippy towards Leela (in that I desperately, desperately want to ship her with someone, anyone). Leela/Romana sounds interesting, from what I have heard of Romana (and as I understand it femslash isn't common in Who), so I think I might look that one up. Do you happen to know which audios?
