.you must be mad, or else you wouldn't have come here

Whoa, I seem to be finishing fanmixes at quite a fast pace!

Or, you know, not really, since the last two have been or were in a half-finished state before I posted them; they just needed a bit more work before posting.

Anyway, the point of this?

My Zagreus mix is finally up!! ::bubbles:: I had it up this morning, but I was so tired that I sort of forgot to mention it here.

I might put it up at rftardis in a bit - but that place is so scarily dominated by all new series mixes!

Well, anyway, mix is up, click the fake cut below & you can have it!

(I am rumour. It is a blessed condition, believe me. To be whispered about at street corners. To live in other people's dreams, but not to have to be. Do you understand?)

♥ my eight/charley mix!

(go, go see! & leave me a shiny comment, perhaps? o, please?)

space tastes like raspberries. true, in fact.

(I ♥ the things Neil Gaiman shares on his blog. & I would love a copy of Who Killed Amanda Palmer. Her album was terrific!

& because the original article was just too fascinating:

rum. raspberries. ice&mint. make up the taste of this galaxy.)

♥ a beautiful photo set inspired by alice in wonderland & perhaps a few other faerytales!

(I want to do something like this, really. But maybe not an Alice-inspired shoot - more like a Classic!Who inspired shoot, or perhaps another faerytale of choice!)

♥ 100 ideas

A sample:

6. Glue an envelope into your journal. For one week collect items you find on the street. 7. Expose yourself to a new artist, (go to a gallery, or in a book.) Write about what moves you about it. 8. Find a photo of a person you do not know. Write a brief bio about them. 46. Write in your journal using a different medium (brush & ink, charcoal, old typewriter, crayons, fat markers. 54. Cut out all media for one day. Write about the effects. 55. Make pencil rubbings of six different surfaces. 64. Physically alter a page. (i.e. cut a hole, pour tea on it, burn it, fold it, etc.) 67. Record descriptions or definitions of subjects or words you are interested in, found in encyclopedias or dictionaries.

♥ astronomy picture of the day - april 22nd

(I ♥ APOD. I like to save the pictures to my hard drive to keep them to look at later & for graphics & things. In this case, it would be for an Eight/Charley or Jamie/Victoria fic prompt! It's too beautiful & alien for me not to use.)

♥ albums for every moment by penelope bat!

(I'm a firm, firm believer in having a soundtrack for one's life. Or more appropriately for this LJ, I'm a very firm believer in having a lot of track fives in one's life! I love her suggestions; I've only heard of a few of them! The way she described the first one reminded me of the Eighth Doctor, actually. Teehee!)

♥ miniature teacups & teacakes to adorn your lovely necks with!

(I've already fallen in love with the pink teacup & tea kettle necklace. I dream of having fullsize teacups like that to have my tea in, but I'd settle for wearing one around my neck! Wouldn't you? & o, how I want this locket!!)

♥ astronomy picture of the day - april 23rd

(I have it open in its full size in another tab. This one will also be a fic prompt, I do believe! It's just spectacular. O, I wish I could travel in space & see these beautiful things for myself, I really do. If I were a companion of the Doctor's, I'd probably do nothing but sit in front of the open TARDIS door & stare at the stars & constellations & planets of every galaxy we visited or passed through.)

♥ penelope bat's weekly wishes!

I want to know what you're wishing for, teacakes.

Me?

I'm wishing for . . .

. . . my beautiful view in my father's flat in my beautiful blue room, warm spring weather perfect for going swinging in everyday, cherryblossoms floating in a gentle breeze & landing in my windblown hair, new & beautiful underthings, fruit ices, lovers in many different cities, Hello Kitty picnics in the rose gardens here in Golden Gate Park, no more capital letters for a bit, strawberry patterned dresses, running barefoot in the woods & climbing trees, Byron & Shelley to be my lovers both, more tea, & lastly, for all of you darlings to know how properly delightful you are, & to believe in more than just the ordinariness that surrounds you.

& now, an interest meme from vega_ofthe_lyre! (o, I do so love these kinds of memes!)

Comment on this post. I will choose seven interests from your profile and you will explain what they mean and why you are interested in them. Post this along with your answers in your own journal so others can play along.

( snip.snip.snip! )

nentari's encouraged me to write a spot of Eight & Victoria gen & a bit of Jamie/Victoria. O, you know, I'm actually quite excited about the idea of writing those two things. Also, it might be nice to write something that isn't smutty & cheeky for a change. Always good to flex one's skills beyond what one is comfortable doing. Of course, the Jamie/Victoria won't come for some time, but the Eight & Victoria could come sooner. I just need to see more things with her in them!

I'm also looking about for a new layout. I want a nice spring change.

Edit: SOMEBODY NEEDS TO TELL ME TO TO CHECK two_love MORE OFTEN BECAUSE HOW COULD I MISS OUT ON THIS POST.

& because . . . because, I'll just transcribe it here. You know, to save you the trouble of having to wait for a page load. ::whistles::

So, the question was from one of DWM In Their Own Words specials, the '87-96' one to be precise:

How did Sylvester McCoy measure up to Patrick Troughton?

"They were two very different kinds of actor. Sylvester came from a comic tradition, I suppose... He was a very funny man, whereas Pat was a sexy one. He was a sexy Doctor. Sylvester wasn't sexy. Some people say that you've got to be sexy on TV. Sylvester had other fine qualities, but he wasn't sexy. He wasn't Pat Troughton."

-Clive Merrison (Paradise Towers, Tomb of the Cybermen)

. . . . . I AM NOT ALONE. My smile, it is huge right now.

(though I must admit, I do find Sylvester McCoy quite sexy as well - both as the Doctor & now. & his voice . . . o, don't get me started, we'll be here until morning. But you're damn right I find Patrick Troughton sexy! I did from the moment I first saw The Mind Robber & I've not changed my mind once! & I'm quite pleased to see that I'm not the only creature who does so. ::twirls::)

So . . . would it be proper to contemplate the thought that I'm not alone here either? ::big innocent eyes::
