'Just Rewards (2)'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
NPR just said the announcement of the new Doctor is as important as the royal baby. That's...about right, actually.
I heard that story three times in two days. Once yesterday, twice today, once on my way to brunch at 11, and once in the car on the way back at 2.
I'm with le nubian. "Children of Men" was not the Torchwood I signed up for.
THIS.
Sorry, I may be a tad overemotional about that.
Anyway, I've an open mind about the new Doctor. I hear this guy is good, so I look forward to seeing it. I do really enjoy Matt Smith, though. I know a lot of people didn't like him, but I've enjoyed the lightness he brought back to the series.
NPR just noted that Capaldi is the second oldest man to play the Doctor. So, the whole getting younger with each regeneration thing is out the window now?
That'll teach me to post and then go to the park and exercise.

Somewhere, Alex Bain is cursing his agent even as we speak.
I can't pass off going out to lunch and making groceries as a full day's productivity, can I?
Well, going to take a break before I do anything else, anyway. I braved Walmart and that was tiring.
Quester, I was wondering about that. I'm glad. Otherwise, we'd have been to literal teenagers soon.
So, um, people who get migraines and get halos with their migraines... Is having a big change in the pattern of the halos a scary thing or just a thing?
define big change.
The dozen or so times I have had migraines throughout my lifetime, they have featured a sparkly tunnel in place of my peripheral vision and a blind spot such that if someone were about 5-8 feet away and facing me, when I look directly into their face, the right side of their face (that is to say, their right, my left) would be covered by sparklies. This is generally consistent with both eyes, but I think it feels stronger from the left eye. I just woke up from a nap to find that my left eye could see just fine, but there was a blank area in my right eye's visual field such that holding my right hand up at arm's length, palm facing me, with fingers splayed, my thumb disappeared.
I stumbled down the stairs, took Excedrin, and the visual effect has gone.
It is also possible, I suppose, that this was not the precursor to migraine pain so much as my neck and brain offering a rather pointed opinion on my choice to sleep face down bunched up oddly over pillows to facilitate my knee feeling happier. Maybe?
