rayzhunkenluv27, I hope you have a great one.
I've done the huge no-no. I got up at 4 AM today. Actually 3.30 but that doesn't really count. Aaaanyway, I start work at 7 and I so hope that I'm not dead by then. But it would be okay nonetheless (If I got a coin for every time I've used 'nonetheless' lately...) because they like me. Or at least they did last year.
The episode in itself I don't think was that good (for example, how the frak did Jack manage to pack a backpack and run out and all before the TARDIS went away?) but there were certain scenes that made up for the general okay-ness. For example when the Doctor explains why he left Jack behind or when the Doctor calls the Master for 'Master' (terribly kinky and will be the mother of many Master/Doctor fics). I've always been someone who prefer the characters to the "tech" in sci-fi and I just felt like there was too little character and too much... else. For example, Martha will always appear two-dimentional to me and Freema's acting will always seem wodden because... I don't understand the character. The moments that we are given to get to know the character usually involves some sappy Doctor!angst and it just feels like Martha isn't really a character in her own right. She either comes across as Rose 2.0 or Doctor!lapdog. I want to like this character, but we're given nothing in terms of background or personality that distinguishes her from Rose. Or I might've missed something.
I saw 300 yesterday and well... I sorta thought it was okay. I sorta felt the Stelios/Captain's son (I think his name was Xerxes, based on IMDB) love which brightened the movie a bit for me, but other than that I felt like the movie was particially unsatisfatory. Characters died, loved etc. and it was sort of introduced but never completed. I mean, what was the point of Stelios/Captain's son's friendship? The King/Queen love each other, yes, but what else? etc. etc. This is not behind a cut because I don't really feel like it's spoilery at all.
Still haven't written Micah/Molly or Petrellicest or Mohinder/Sylar. I am a bad fan *bows head* I will try and make amends and write some after work, given of course that I don't fall apart and sleep for the rest of the day. I end at 14.00 (2 PM) so I've got a large part of the day to myself.
