Fred: It's the pictures in my mind that are getting me. It's like being stuck in a really bad movie with those Clockwork Orange clampy things on my eyeballs. Wesley: Why imagine? Reality's disturbing enough.

Lucky you! Oh, well.

Crab cakes for everyone! I had bought some tartar sauce to eat with it, not knowing that the box had aioli sauce inside. A much tastier choice than the tartar sauce.

I have been way too fucking grownup the past couple weeks. It's tiring.

...I don't like crabcakes. I live in and love Baltimore. But I can't get on the crabcake train. I basically don't like 90% of seafood. And the smell of fishy things is awful to me. It's what happens when you grow up in a desert. The few fishy things I like are fresh trout (it was in the rivers and lakes) and shrimp, because we had crawdad/crayfish from the irrigation ditches and close enough.

But I don't love them. Just don't find them gross and weird tasting.

Lucky you! Oh, well.

They added more dates that don't appear to be on the website, Wednesday @ 7:30 and next Saturday @ 2pm. It might be worth calling the box office to ask.

I will caution anyone with sexual assault triggers who is thinking about attending the show.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Aww. Graham Norton picked a relationship in his audience and read the couple's text messages and they were so insanely sweet. They called each other pickle and angel and honeypuff in just about every message, and signed off with "xx."

I say this in a distant sort of ICOULDNEVERDOTHAT way. I just think it's adorbs that they grabbed a couple who used actual words to each other.

So...Buffista couples. Own up. What would you look like if Graham Norton read your texts with your SO on international TV. Cute? Embarrassing? Offensive?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I could only hope that they read out the message Wallybee sent me when I was off to play D&D, which read: "HAVE FUN AT YOUR GAME. I LOVE YOU. KILL THEM ALL."

Oh, and I can't stalk my future husband, because I don't know who he is. I only know I want to marry him because he liked the right previews and he seemed my kind of early morning comic book watching geek. But I couldn't even follow him, because he stepped aside so I could walk in front of him.

Maybe he's stalking me? Maybe he's outside right now. Well, if he's serious, he'll be there tomorrow.

Note for David Tennant fans: He will sign autographs naked. It's on you to work out how to get naked, but I suspect both of you should be.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have definitely seen people I should at least be friends with at the 11am movie, but have never figured out a way to make that happen! Ah well.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

He will sign autographs naked.

Yeah, but he did say that being asked to sign an autograph while naked was "inappropriate."

This was a 10:20 movie. He's evidently dedicated like I am. Knew to stay after the credits too. PERFECT. I can't believe I'm still single.

And, sadly, he's not at my normal theatre (I had to travel to find the movie in 2D), so we're just fated to be apart.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

David Tennant wears day of the week socks. That he's willing to show on telly. And Superman shoes. CUTENESS KILLING ME NOW.
