...and especially when you'd set aside time to work the day after Thanksgiving only to find that your office is closed and completely locked so even though you can get past the fingerprint-identification, you can't actually get in.
Posting by the numbers today...
1. Amazon has the Complete Buffy on sale for under $95, and there's free two-day shipping. That's slightly more than half off the official price, so if you're looking to get it for the holidays, today might be a good day for the getting.
2. I'm still taking requests for vids - I really want to make a few for y'all during this holiday season, but you need to submit more bunnies!![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
shay_renoylds, can you post the one we were discussing in your LJ earlier this month? To keep it organized, it would be great if you commented with a few requests here - get serious, schmoopy, cracky - I want to get creative.
3. Speaking of crack, I made a Doctor/Master vid!
Title: Say My Name
Music: Destiny's Child's Say My Name. Yes, it makes for crack.
Details: At least, it started as crack. Then it got angsty, as my crack seems to do. Inspired by a line from the Children In Need special, although with no spoilers for it; spoilers for S3 of Doctor Who.
Summary: The Doctor is worried that Lucy is coming between the Master and himself; can true love survive? Spoilers for all of S3 of the new Doctor Who.
Pairing: Doctor/Master
Rating: PG-13
( Vid behind the cut )
Vidder's Note: This is the first time I've tried to match up some of the mouth movements to the song lyrics - sometimes it works, and sometimes I know it's off but I liked the effect or the clip anyway...

4. Sometime tomorrow I may manage a longer post on press coverage of "James Potter & the Halls of Elders Crossing" and why no "journalists" seem to be able to figure out how to use Google, and thus end up writing things like:
O RLY? A surge? Because the numbers have been so paltry to date? Because there's a dearth of sequels to the Harry Potter series?
Clearly, reporters weren't able to use Google to learn anything real about the fanfic before they started writing stupid articles and can't manage to use Google now to learn anything about the enormous mass of Harry Potter fanfic that already exists on the net.

5. Hey! SHOW is on tonight! Is this the last ep for a while or are they just airing through December with the rest of the pre-strike episodes?
ETA: Ooooh! Excellent and spoilery-for-backstory interview with David Anders here!
6. The number six waves to the Zone.
7. Saw Enchanted yesterday. Was completely enchanted and in adoration, especially over the Central Park scene. Am about to download soundtrack on itunes. Wish XMen III had been a musical because James Marsden and Hugh Jackman singing together would've been lovely.
I saw in an article today that they're adding Giselle to the Princesses at Disney - not sure if that means she'll be a part of the Princess line or if she'll just be a walk-around character or various other aspects that would be overspoilery to discuss here so I think I'll just save them for tomorrow. I know there's a lot of fellow Disney fans on my flist -what do you think about Disney bringing the Enchanted characters into the Parks? ETA: Spoilers for Enchanted in the comments!
8. For those of you who enjoyed last week's cover song collection, BestWeek Ever has a list of songs that are impossible to cover. I do remember a Madonna cover of one of the songs they've listed, though.SO I guess "impossible" just means "bad"?

Rowling's decision is expected to cause a surge in the number of unauthorised tales by fans.
