In case I ever need to prove where I learned what I know and think I know about John Watson's military career, both canon and BBC, here's a list of links:
-AQ's LONG notes - Includes Medic vs Doctor, and more.
-AQ's TTOBB Notes - the justification for Commando!John is in the notes for Chapter 1
-Wikipedia - Battle of Maiwand - 1880, where ACD Watson was injured.
-Wikipedia - 66th Berkshire Foot - ACD Watson's regiment. He was on attachment to them from the 5th Northumberland Fusiliers. Like BBC Watson identifies himself from in THoB.

People often link to videos in their posts, so for once, I am going to do so as well. Because this is Important.
So important that I became a sponsor to be able to watch the new episode (out today!) an hour earlier. Even though Corina was in my living room and had already downloaded it. I also have it for my ipod. This is very exciting.

Got the best 8 hours of sleep ever this morning... on the couch. I really need to make it to my bed before passing out.

T-2 hours until I head in to work to prep for Black Friday. (Only two of us are in at 4 am on Friday, so prep needs to be done tonight.)
I will be away from internets and (hopefully) television for the next couple of days because I really need to be sewing when not at work. If you're in retail, good luck. It's all downhill from here.

nympholepsia linked to this story and summer_queen shared more info. I'm more than a little worried and upset. It's been an open case for two years. And I haven't heard about it at all. Granted, he was in Iowa and I'm pretty sure Denver hasn't been searching my packages from Japan. But seriously? *shivers to think*

Anyway, lining, 'petals' for moth, and then work. Yep.

I am presently mid-fangasm over:
-Shiraishi and Chitose
Why I didn't properly love them before now, I may never know. I can't go into details but... I am very very pleased to be in love with Chitose all over again. Also, playing an Aires is hard. :P
-Shitenhouji in general
Because of the above we just watched the most recent four episodes of Semifinals. I actually /enjoyed/ it. ( Read more... )
-Tachikiri-Tai and "Koi no Gekidasa Ecstasy"
I liked it before, but I blame the above two points.
-Kansai-ben and Kyuushu-ben
Because Shiraishi... guh. Yes.

-Renai Shindan
I watched about half of the first episode and the overwhelming pretty nearly killed me. Must try to put this on the TV in the near future.
-Kamenashi Kazuya
I have no excuse other than "Seishun Amigo"

I also took apart Benkei's pants tonight, so they're half-way to being better. If I get my way, they'll end up as wrap-pants like Kagetoki's. Have to remember that after the Kajiwara kyoudai, I still want to make tabi and a new cloak for FYI-Betrayal-boy. Ues.

And now, I'd better sleep, lest I fall asleep during truck tomorrow. 12-3 is the stupidest truck window ever. Anyway. Bah.

But I did that yesterday. And today I came home to shiny things, so it's time for new happiness. Behold my new icon. *snerks*
1) forgyoza owns my /soul/. I loves her/them/it.
2) Nao-kun is the bestest music. Always and forever. I still love you, Arashi.
3) It is the greatest tragedy in my life that though I have caps of both Kite's groin /and/ his behind, and can't put them together in a single icon. Tragedy. I tell you. I already iconed the first one that inspired me.

Not sure how I feel about the Myu costumes for Higa. They're not the sort of material I would have liked to use... or even the type that I /will/ use. Just... yeah.
Poor lonely Saeki. He reminded me that I was supposed to make Kisarazu-twins costumes. Anyway.

Tomorrow is for chatting and picspams and recovering my sanity before saturday. ;_;
