Today has felt like a tiring day. We had the zoom cancer appointment, which turned out to be a little draining surprisingly. The result of it (after much emotional talking) is going to be mum having a blood test at the local doctor. If she has the gene, then I’ll have to take it too, but if not then it means we’re fine. Of course it’ll take time. So… we’ll see.
Other things. I posted fic Monday so that’s that done, I wanna try and post more prompts to the dead dove meme I got the prompt from (since prompts close Monday) but we’ll see if my brain comes up with any cause it’s been fuzzy.
I also cleared a bunch of my icons which was quite sad to do. I had thought of clearing George’s anyway so his is not much of a lose but I still feel so… ugh about Wilbur. Still it freed up a bunch of slots which I filled up a bit already and I’ll try and make more soon.
Yesterday was exhausting cause it was a food delivery day and since I’m low energy it was draining. But things did come. The Small Robots book came back in stock so that came, along with a Lego Minecraft set that was on offer with the shop. The main delivery though was the new Doctor Who boxset, season 15 which I started tonight. (More on that soon)
There was also a trailer for the new Star Wars show, The Acolyte and it looks pretty good. I’m definitely looking forward to it. It does seem to be Jedi centric, but with it being set at their height it should be at least something different. (Plus there’s at least two hot guys which is a plus)
Tonight I decided to watch the first ep from the boxset, which was Horror Of Fang Rock. When a new blu ray boxset is announced I always look through the episode list and most of the time there are episodes that I really look forward to. This boxset had a few I couldn’t remember too clearly but also two I was really looking forward to, this being the first.
As the name implies Horror Of Fang Rock is a spooky story, being set in a fox shrouded lighthouse. It’s the perfect setting really, being naturally atmospheric due to its location. The whole thing looks great and it’s really effective, with the members of the guest cast all succumbing to paranoia (or just generally being unlikeable). Plus Leela gets to be a badass which is always good, because she’s awesome.
The enemy of the ep (with updated effects which look nice) is a rutan, and I always think it’s funny that they’re the sworn enemies of the sontarans yet this is their sole appearance. I’m surprised there’s never been an ep with them together fighting (though I know Big Finish are doing audios this years with them). Hopefully we’ll see the, sometime.
I’m gonna watch the special features of the ep tomorrow I think, since I don’t think I have the focus to watch anything else on screen tonight. However I definitely think this was a great ep to start the season, let’s see how the others hold up (I feel this’ll be my fav or at least second fav).
Tomorrow’s plan is to get some supplies for the girls (their dry food is running low and only one place nearby has it) and also to hopefully fic some more and come up with prompts. But we’ll see.
