Apparently comment notifications are down, so uh. Yeah, if you're not commenting in my personal journal chances are good I won't notice.

Whenever there's a post in a dl comm I'm a member of saying "Do not ask for people to upload the new episode! Wait patiently!" I feel a really intense urge to post along the lines of "WHY CAN'T SOMEONE UPLOAD A BIT FASTER, I'VE BEEN WAITING LIKE FIVE MINUTES ALREADY." The urge gets stronger every time and I'm a member of quite a few dl comms. *twitch*

I'm pretty much just updating to put off packing, but since I have a doctor's appt in an hour I think I've managed to put it off just enough that I have an excuse.

The guys at Global PC are still fabulously wonderful; my XHD's adaptor spontaneously upped and died yesterday, I took it in today, and they swapped it out in about two seconds flat. <3

Torchwood was great this week!

Americans! Don't forget to vote! Also, that GOP robo-call thing is pretty bizarre. Sometimes I worry about corruption in our country, and then I think about the way the Republicans are going to totally get away with that, and I feel better. (So, guys: make me less of an arrogant prick about the superiority of my country! Elect Democrats: They're Marginally Better!)

They're Marginally Better is a much more attractive way of putting it (I've been saying "The Lesser of Two Evils. Really Evil Evils.")

I really feel so sorry for you all this election (are you voting? I forget if you're old enough yet.) Although I guess since there are more candidates, some of them are actually attractive, if you're living in the right areas - last time, the Kerry vs Bush debates were so damn depressing. Pretty much all he had going for him was not being Bush (see: Why He Lost.) Whereas this time round I know at least some of the candidates are worthwhile, even if lots of them only have the not-quite-a-Republican problem. :-/

Mm, no, I can't vote quite yet. I will be able to aid in the hoped-for Defeat of The Damned Republicans in the next presidential election, but not this time around.

(Which is actually a shame, because Maine is being screwed over in the governor department; our current one, Baldacci, is a democrat but a pretty lousy one, and his republican opponent is the scariest republican alive--but there's a pretty prominent green candidate (because Maine is awesome like that) and I would love to vote in her direction.)

But yeah, there are some pretty good dems out there this year. Hopefully they'll retake the House (and maybe the Senate).

Don't even talk to me about Kerry. Gah. Why????? ARGH.
