Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Oh, thanks for those course links, billytea! I like to imagine that I will be able to work a class like that into my schedule at some point...
I am feeling much better, to the point where I suspect that maybe I should set an alarm to take more nyquil in the middle of the night so my mornings aren't so bad. Although that seems kind of extreme.
I think I'll do nice chunky gift cards to restaurants for my faux-son and my SIL. They deserve nice nights out. Beyond that, there's no one to do presents for.
Geez, your return was stolen and it took all this time? That sucks. But yay it finally getting straightened out?
Timelies all!
I'm glad most of my friends have Amazon wish lists, so I don't have to go out to get them gifts. My parents, however....(I used to get them Barnes & Noble gift cards, but they got Kindles and don't buy paper books these days.)
I think this may be the year that no one gets more than one actual item for Christmas. I have already been given theater tickets. I think we are all getting mac $ only, maybe I will get him an item of clothing to go with. Parents and brother and brother-in-law are getting donations made in their names, plus food items, I think.
That's it. Like 1 present to wrap for each person and in most cases it will be a perishable gift so no actual things to be around. In fact for brother and brother in law, they will not be here so gifts will be shipped directly to them, so no wrapping at all.
I absolutely need to get an angel tree kid or two so I can have some actual fun buying things for someone.

B&N has a great DVD selection, lots of BBC stuff. They're were I picked up my Doctor Who DVDs, and they were able to order Happiness Patrol for me.
edit: And they've got most of the various BBC detective series.
I have no idea what to get anyone for Christmas and it's making me nuts. How is it so soon????

Happiness Patrol! Does it have the special feature documentary on the relationship between Doctor Who and politics? I thought that was fantastic. (I think Happiness Patrol is fantastic too, it's one of my favourite Seventh Doctor adventures. Naff Kandyman and all.)
Ginger, backflung. Sorry it took so long!

I don't remember, I think there's some sort of documentary but I forgot to look. I love the atmospherics of that episode, and the end where Helen is weeping over her horrible dog.
