Right, so to fill the gaping hole left in my life by my dissertation (and never would I have guessed that I’d miss being busy grasping at straws), I’ve channelled my considerable obsessive tendencies into compiling a somewhat scary (see also: terrifying, bloodcurdling, creepy and frightening) Victoria & Albert, come The Young Victoria, come that-Prince-Albert-was-a-lovely-gorgeous-man-beast picspam. I saw the BBC’s Victoria & Albert with Victoria Hamilton and Jonathan (Colin’s little brother) Firth when it aired in 2001 and fell in love with Albert a little bit. thedreamygirl, solitary_zero, Housemates Kathryn, Emma and I saw The Young Victoria a couple of weeks ago and righteously fell in love with him proper through the medium of Rupert Friend.

Such is the Power of Albert. I have also discovered that VLC can cap shots- a wonderful new era has dawned for me as a fangirl.

It's a terrible day to be in Britain, to be British, etc. The British National Party have acquired two European Parliament seats. People have voted for Nazis. They use words like 'assimilation' and 're-settlement' and it sickens me to the depths of my soul that stupid, stupid, disgusting and/or misinformed people have given such scum credence. And then there's the apathy that have allowed them to gain seats. Yeah- and they're holocaust deniers as well.

Hope Not Hate: The Real BNP

Recession and housing scandals are partly to blame. There is a little good news in that Nick Griffin's car was attacked as he tried to make his way to Manchester's town hall. He had to enter via the back surrounded by minders. People were boo-ing and hissing as BNP victors gave their acceptance speeches but from the same group of people he had secured his lead. But bloody hell- this should be illegal.

John Barrowman is a love. I adore the man. He is shamelessly shameless and seemingly a big, gorgeous idiot and he makes me laugh and smile like few others.

Here follows a wee John Barrowman Care Package of Inexplicable Glee. This is me not doing my dissertation, by the by. Sighsighsigh...

That got out of hand. Now for the pictures.

That really did get out of hand. But I spent far too long oggling over Barrowman and related topics (Tennant, etc) to not post.

Hope that all is well xXx

It has been a few years since I first saw The New World and even longer since it was released, so this is nothing new but I could not resist constructing a collection of the images that I could scavenge while on a Google Search. So much beautiful.

And today I find out that Kat Dennings has secured herself a Twitter account. I know that this business has been going on for a while but for somebody who spends so much of her time online I am incredibly uninformed about such things. But I do know that my level of stalking just got that little bit scarier. Eighteen hours ago she declared her love for Flight of the Conchords, because she and they are awesome. Help me!

Edit: Also- news of The Time Traveler's Wife- Warner Bros. have moved the release date from February 2010 to August 14th this year. Bloody genius'. But yey!

Bedtime now- last seminar tomorrow. Like, ever. *tiny wail*

Goodnight, hope that all is well xXx

Acute procrastination today. My poor Profile page was the victim.

This needs to be shared. It was introduced to hardcore Lord of the Rings fans like myself, sophieisgod and Housemate Kathryn by an ambling friend (who is nevertheless very dear to me). It makes me wonder how much more juicy stuff is out there that I am not aware of. Please do share- any fandom- I love re-edits and the like.

Contains one instance of profanity-


Yeah, so... back to the essay.

Hope that all is well xXx

I haven't spent the past three days watching Oscar videos, but that is not too far from the truth. As a result I came across eleven year old Anna Paquin's Oscar win and speech from 1994. Bless her little self- she walks off the stage and back into the audience at the end.

Kate Winslet has won her Oscar! :D

This is my Holden/Jack/Tony/Martha picspam of recently incurred obsessive mourning and joy.

It is very hard to find images to work with out there and I know that this is rather unhealthy, but it must be exorcised!

That is all.
