I'm up to 46 minutes on Day Three of Children of Earth. You want to guess how much I wish they were regular length episodes? I am so booooooorrrrrreeeeeed. Nothing happens! At great length! With many scene changes! I mean, okay, stuff happens, but stuff our team actually does? Not for the last 20 minutes easy. They watch TV. Sometimes they make dramatic expressions. They watch the computer monitor. Sometimes they type. Dear god I wish they'd do something useful. But nooooo, next there will be shorthand.
*headdesk*
... have I mentioned I'm bored?

I'm never going to get through Day Three at this rate. Day Four won't get done, not from emotional reasons, just because I'm stuck here, like a too long staircase.


... okay, so, is no actually a problem. Just... b.o.r.e.d.

I don't like the short stories much really. They hardly get started and then they're done.
I also dislike stories that have Mary Shelley just write down something she saw. I've seen a bunch of them. There are other authors that get the same thing written about them, but few I've seen such a variety about. It always hits me as a 'womens can't do thinking stuff up' reaction. Probably not reasonable, but *shrugs*

The one with the comic was mostly made of *facepalm*.
And it didn't help that the download went onto my MP3 player with one section randomly misplaced so I heard the end before the middle.

The one with Fitz was amusing. A bit.

The one with Benny was most amusing when she was summarising things at the start. "*ahem* shook hands" :-)

I like all the bits about "isomorphic symbiosis". TARDIS symbiosis is cool.

And now I have a headache despite the painkillers.

Bit blah really. :-(

There were some neat lines though.

I think I bought the wrong set. I want to listen more 8th Doctor but I've heard all the ones I've got.

I've been saying for ages Big Finish need to fix their website.
So now there's all sorts of new all over it!
... they've only gone and made it worse.

I'm looking at the 'My Account' page and it has turned into a right mess. Everything is out of order and all jumbled together and has pictures! How am I supposed to find whatever is new on that lot?

Also, they have not replied to my email. I subscribed to 12 CDs and there's an offer that says get one free and email them the name. I emailed. I no get reply. I no get one free.

Some days I remember why it was so much easier walking into the shop and picking things up.

How hard can it be? I have my CDs listed by Doctor, by Companion, by number on the edge, and by range, and I'm only using a couple of bits of paper and some basic tags on LibraryThing. Why can't the Big Finish site make it that easy? Click, get the 8th Doctor, Click, put them in number order, Click, see who is with him. But nooooo. Big mess.

I sulk. I have headache. I no buy things today.
