October in the rain

I'm still feeling hellish, but it's okay. These times are why I have a prescription for codeine. Also, exercises and tea. Everything is better with tea. And coffee. With super cocoa powders.

Just finished watching the season finale of Doctor Who, "The Wedding Of River Song." It's now my favorite of the Matt Smith episodes next to "The Doctor's Wife." It's so simple, and so complex, and so simply complex, and ultimately beautiful. It ties everything together, and at the end there's really only one question left, which circles back around to the heart of the show itself, and that means that the next season in 2012 can start freshly and fantastically. Also, I love how River comes full circle but her story will be constantly continuing, because of who she is, who she has been, and who she will be. This episode also solidified my joy in watching Amy and Rory together, because I love seeing epic love staying epic no matter what alternate reality or cracked timeline it is. I don't know, it just all felt right. Obviously there are minor issues, little problems that every episode has, and no episode is perfect. But this was a really good solid finale.
This spoilery blog post sums up many of my feelings. http://www.guardian.co.uk/tv-and-radio/tvandradioblog/2011/oct/01/doctor-who-wedding-of-river-song

Tomorrow will be better, because I will make it better. I have errands to run, dammit.
