Let's see what happened these last few days, going backwards in time.
Yesterday Tati and I had dinner at her sister's. We had pizza and played the Game of Thrones board game. Last time I was a Lannister, and I won. This time Tati's sister was a Greyjoy, and she won. I was a Stark, but I was tired and sleepy, and got cornered in the North and stayed there pretty much the whole time. I came back home at 2 am, and today my brain feels like it's full of cotton. I'm too old for this shit, man. It was great fun, but next time it'll have to be before dinner.
In the afternoon Tati and I baked cookies, the same ones I made a couple of weeks ago, and this time we used tangerine powder instead of orange. It gives them a much more delicate flavour. This time around we counted them, and we made 100 cookies! Even so, they're not going to last long with me. :D
There was also the Merlin finale. I loved it. Yes, it was heartbreaking, but I think it gave a beautiful closure to a show that I loved but got lost many times during the years - mostly with Morgana and Gwen acting completely OOC because the writers had no idea what to do with them.
I watched the Doctor Who christmas special too. First, the things I loved: Madame Vastra and Jenny, the Sherlock Holmes references, the Tardis in the clouds. I didn't like Clara. Not because I don't like her character per se, just because she's the exact same carbon copy character we already had with River, Amy and Irene. It's getting beyond repetitive into the realm of "boring". Not to mention they do know how to make different female characters, just see what they did with Vastra! At this point I think it's just laziness, so I just shrug my shoulders and enjoy the story.
My aunt is at her parents' place, and sadly there aren't good news there. My grandparents are both getting worse with every new day, which isn't a suprise considering they're 90, but my aunt is obviously pretty affected. They are pretty much strangers to me, but I feel sorry for her.
Mom is doing fine, thankfully, while the rest of the ward is fighting the seasonal bugs. Even if we are having a warm winter, it is still to be expected. Me, I'm going back to the gym on the 3rd, which is the one thing that helps me the most to fight off the stupid viruses. ;)
Man, my circadian rhythm is really shot to hell. I should go and play the drums a while, to fight the sleepiness. I can't go to bed now, it's not even lunch time! So, so glad it's sunday. :D

Erano tre personaggi femminili completamente differenti, ognuna con la sua storia, i suoi progetti, i suoi sogni, non queste donne fatte con lo stampino! Certo, abbiamo Vastra e Jenny, ma sono troppo secondarie, sono i personaggi principali che devono contare!
(Che poi a me questo modo così aggressivo di relazionarsi col Doctor dà molto fastidio. Si va sempre a rasentare la molestia sessuale nel modo in cui lo baciano, è una cosa che mi fa davvero arrabbiare.)
Ti linko una cosa favolosa che ho trovato su tumblr: http://lordwhat.tumblr.com/post/39184447857/people-were-talking-about-how-it-would-suck-if
E' proprio un'analisi perfetta del problema!

Date: 2012-12-30 08:02 pm (UTC)Ecco,un'altra cosa che non capisco è perchè tutte ste donne devono gettarsi ai piedi di Eleven..che il Dottore sia sempre piaciuto ci sta (basta vedere come si comportavano le varie companion di un episodio con Ten) ma Eleven è come un bimbo di 5 anni in overdose da troppi zuccheri,per trovarlo attraente devi avere dei problemi seri..(e qui ci sarebbe da discutere di come Amy volesse tradire Rory il giorno prima delle nozze...grazie Moffat).
Io non odio il Moffy,sia chiaro..solo che la sua misoginia e il suo egocentrismo stanno mandando un pò alle ortiche questa serie..DW non deve per forza seguire un senso logico e lineare ma che almeno la trama venga rispettata di tanto in tanto!E basta con ste companion di massimo 20 anni che lottano contro gli alieni in minigonna e con i capelli sempre in ordine

Ormai guardo DW con un occhio solo mentre faccio altro, perché non vale più la pena di seguirlo come le stagioni precedenti. Speriamo che il vecchio Moff si ravveda, perché il programma merita di più!
