Holy crap, I'm leaving for CA in 5 days. How can that BE????????
I did take the pets to the vet this weekend to get their health certs so they can fly -- I suddenly remembered that there was very little time left. Talis has an ear infection AGAIN. The vet advised me to do the cleaning/medication for a full 14 days this time to hopefully clear it up once and for all. He, of course, hates the whole procedure. He shakes frantically, trying to dispel the wetness, or he scratches, or rubs his ears against the bed/floor. I'm like, don't make me put the doggie cone on you!!! And he just stares at me like, I dare you.
Last night I watched the first ep of BBC's Sherlock, and it was, as many have said, brilliant. I stayed up far later than I meant to, watching it. Now I'm tired and grumpy. But I don't regret it.
Had a fantabulous time yesterday with the D/G gals. We finally did the podcast, in the presence of one ofelle_blessing's non-fandom male friends, which wasn't embarrassing AT ALL. I'm sorry to say that I took pictures, but most came out kind of blurry. Sigh. Next time!

Can you talk about Morgana's relationship with Arthur and how we might see that progress?
I think the relationship between Morgana and Arthur is very much a sibling relationship. You see them bickering... and they've been brought up as brother and sister. And it starts in the first few episodes, where it was more ambiguous about what was going to happen. But the producers, I think, decided that as time wore on that it was far more interesting to have them be played as brother and sister, rather than have there be any sort of tension between them. Because the story for Arthur, love-wise, is definitely Guinevere. That's the big story. And the Morgana story with him plays secondary to that. So it's more interesting to do the sort of sibling rivalry between them. She can pull his strings. She knows how to annoy him. She knows how to manipulate him. That's one of the keys to Morgana. She's the queen manipulator. She's smart enough to know people's weaknesses and pull on those strings to get what she wants.
(LOL the whole time KM was probably like, "You don't know it yet, but really, take my word for it, we're brother and sister.")
I suspect I may miss the next two weeks' Merlin episodes and will have to catch up when I get back. Unless something super shippy happens, in which casejade_okelani will force me to watch it. She's even crazier than I am now, I think.
Tonight: preliminary packing and probably finishing Sherlock. D'oh and I haven't even caught up on the most recent ep of Vampire Diaries yet.
