I am finished work for the year! \o/ And my Yuletide fic was uploaded on time! \o/

I must admit, in total me fashion, now, a day and a bit before Christmas I am feeling a little Christmas-y. I had a choice to take tomorrow off and I'm so glad I did in the end, because I have to cook soup for Christmas Day and I thought it might also be a good time to try the chocolate and raspberry brownie recipe [livejournal.com profile] china_shop posted. Things will be achieved, I may have time for Yuletide Madness, and I'll get to sleep in a little. ;)

I have to give props to BBC Two for their line-up tonight: Top of the Pops 2 Christmas Special, a Grumpy Guide to Christmas, Never Mind The Buzzcocks Christmas special, Russell Howard live (<3), QI and then Mock the Week Christmas special. I need to see a Russell Howard show at some point, he was so good.

I keep thinking there's something else I want to mention in this post, but I can't remember right now.

Random yay: I will have a broadband connection when I read Yuletide this year. *is impatient*

Edit: I was going to go to bed, and then along comes the episode of Have I Got News for You that I meant to catch up on. Life, so hard. Also, is David Tennant on QI tomorrow as well as having been on Buzzcokcs a week ago?! I mean, yay, but that is a lot of David Tennant on TV right now. I wonder why. ;)

I seem to have watched many episodes of S4 How I Met Your Mother in the last 24 hours. I've seen the odd episode before, and always meant to watch more, but one post about vaguely spoilerific ) on ONTD, and then I was intrigued, and reading Wikipedia, and watching YouTube clips, and watching episodes and now strangely emotionally invested. Especially after seeing 'Benefits.' Oh, Barney. Neil Patrick Harris, you rock hard, sir.

Also, I was in the audience for a episode of Mock The Week last night! It was a lot of fun (barring some drama and standing in some torrential rain at the start), and hilarious. So much does not end up in the episode. Seriously. There were all sorts of inside jokes about among other things, Big Bird, and "Mario" who lived in Dara's dressing room. And as close to/over the line Frankie Boyle is on the aired show, he is ten times worse at the recording. Fuck, it's funny. It was a looong shoot though, and you could see that everyone on the show was getting just a little bit over it, which was understandable, but interesting. I would love to see Dara, Russell or Frankie live.

I got McDonalds on the way home. I'd had two and half weeks without red meat and then, well, I broke that in style (for style read, ridiculously bad for me rather than actually tastes good), but I was so hungry I didn't care. It ... actually wasn't that bad.

Should go do things now.
