slow.
been jonesing for new tv.
been stressed beyond belief.
while out shopping, i finally used up a 2-year-old Best Buy gift card and bought myself an episode of Doctor Who on DVD. I don't regret it, although I wish I'd gotten a different one. the one I really wanted to see was "King's Demons" but instead I got "The Visitation". It had lots and lots of extras, which was good, because it reminded me of how many good episodes I want to see again.
Like the Key to Time series. Or the e-Space series. or the whole Black Guardian/"Mawdryn Undead" series. Frankly I could skip most of the 6th Doc's episodes, but those are the ones I've seen the least of, too, because that was the beginning of the end, and our local PBS affiliate quit showing them for a while.
And now, goddammit, I want to see the new stuff. I want to see the new Daleks and the new Cybermen, the crazy robot versions of the girls from BBC's What Not to Wear, and the robotic Anne Droid from The Weakest Link. I want behind the scenes stuff. I want to know why the Tardis is suddenly clean and perfect now... despite being a decades-old Police Box.
Mostly, I just want the fun back in my tv.

Seriously... I was jonesing so hard last night, I dug through 7 boxes trying to find my videotape of Pyramids of Mars. Never found it, either. It's the one episode I have on videotape.
King's Demons would be good though. As would all of the Black/White Guardian stuff. Turlough. *sigh*
