time lords in radio times covers conspiracy
the other week was the Doctor and this week it's the Master, who's next Jenny and her great grandmum or even Rassilon himself?
Day of the Moon
an interesting conclusion in that it leaves many questions deliberetly unanswered and makes a point of saying its leaving them unanswered on purpose. Is that a regenerated Jenny? What were the Silence really doing? Why was River so freaked out about a kiss?

finished the first draft of my latest book
The Disciples of St Judas is a modest book, although told as a short story collection they form an overall story about the group and its members from the initial idea to the coming war with The Lodge of the Damned, a rival organisation (and also the working title for the idea of a possible sequel)
Finished Return
a good day well spent :) I think I might read a book tonight, done enough DVD watching for today :)

Rock & Chips
Well that was actually rather good :) A nice open end to the series, pity there almost certainly won't be any more eps, unless some scripts have been written already of course
2nd ever lulu payment
after paying the standard US tax rate I got a couple of pennies to rub together, glad for the cash, I just hope its not another 3 years until the next payment ;)

quiet day
did my washing, played WoW, had a nice tea, watched Time Team, played more WoW and did 1/3 of the washing up
The Impossible Astronaut - With Spoliers
OMG!!!!! What an episode, what a start to the show! The Doctor's dead, well his 200 year older self is and no-one can tell him they saw it happen. Then theres the mysterious new baddies of the year, not really scary, they're just annoying really, very pale imitations of the Shadows from Babylon 5 in my view. The painting and tunnelling scenes were fun though and Nixon is always good value for money, although I'm still waiting for him to say arrroooo like he does in Futurama ;)

vulnerable
last week someone had a go at my shed, well last night they were back and this time they succeeded :( they took my lawnmower and a bottle of weed killer, an odd combination I know, but still it means there's no point keeping anything in my shed anymore expect a few things for weeding my garden but the main thing is the feeling of vulnerability and violation that someone would not just try once but twice to steal from me, its not a nice feeling especially after 5 years of feeling safe and secure where I live.
quite a boring dream last night
just dreamed that I had a boob job and I kept knocking things over with them because they were so big and I was so uncoordinated at first until I learned to compensate and then I was fine :)
under 36 hours to new Who
will my marathon rewatching of all Matt Smiths stories be completed b4 then, and if so will I be put off and not want to watch another episode?
watched more Doctor Who
Flesh and Stone + plus extra TARDIS scene
The Vampires of Venice

watched School Reunion last night
David Tennant looked so young too, the show really aged him between his first season and The End of Time :(

Lis Sladen RIP
she is best known to the UK as Sarah Jane Smith, the savvy journalist companion of the 3rd, 4th, 10th and 11th Doctors
home again
its very warm today! had a nice walk into town at lunchtime, then had a meeting and now I'm just chilling out and enjoying my lazy day :)
wearing my black dress today
the same one I wore for the march on the 26th March (it's been washed since then, twice)

watching Going Postal

first load of washing in the machine
must have a nice refreshing shower soon to get me ready for the day :)

the drugs do work
my breasts look really big now I don't need to wear my falsies anymore to look like I have boobs :)
listening to some cool songs this evening
later on I'll watch Jon Pertwee's final story as the Doctor
got a later bus tonight :)
cos I couldn't find the sugar in Tesco's without asking the lady there, so there was no stinky bus tramp to offend me with his inability to grasp the concept of hygiene
Thursday, 14 April 2011
someone's had a go at my shed :(
they've tried to force the lock apparently but it held, dunno what they were after, the lawn mower, the petrol for it or maybe the bottles of weed killers
stinky bus tramp on the bus again :(
he didn't sit behind me luckily, and I sprayed myself with some pretty deoderant too to counter his unwashed ripocity.

cheese stuffed mushrooms for tea
my speciality it seems, or at least my fave meal atm :) it's a nice, simple, meal to make and just as easy to eat :)
stuck behind a stinky bus tramp tonight :(
I don't think he'd ever had a wash, ever, it was acrid, I think I have chemical burns inside my throat off him!
Tuesday, 12 April 2011
I just want to go to sleep and wake up in time for Doctor Who
there's nothing else for me in between now and then :(

TGoW3 is a go!
http://www.lulu.com/product/ebook/the-gods-of-war---volume-3/15433059
yay, that's the trilogy done :)
yay, that's the trilogy done :)
cut the grass
got a face full of grass dust into the bargain though :( that'll set my allergy off soon no doubt :( when I was a kid it'd have been pretty much instant but over the years I have developed a tolerence to grass and grass dust.
on editing TGoW3
just sorting out the spacing and the layout of the text to get it looking good for an e-reader, I'm following the same methedology of text sizing and spacing as my other e-books, as they work fine on my Kindle :)
my new bra arrived
wearing it now, it fits ok, its good to feel my real boobs instead of those chicken fillets, of course it's good to have boobs to fit into a bra, even if they're currently small compared to what I can expect to develop, hopefully, I'm starting to get the breast growth tingle in them so hopefully there'll be a need to go up a cup size by the end of the year :)
managed to pay by dialling a robot
she wasn't as chatty as Alice or as nice as Trudiode or as klepto as Violet so I think it went ok, but not a method I'd like to use again any time soon
can't seem to pay my council tax
finally got them to get my name and gender right, now they won't take my money off me
shopped up
got some scran in for the week, need to make sarnies up later to freeze for work, so I'm not spending a fortune of shop bought all the time
about to start editing TGoW3
it'll be the technically most challenging book because it's the most diverse volume in the saga as I wanted to give the original Book 10 a fragmentry feel to it, so it felt like a collection of bits of stories all jumbled together into one large mass of text, I'm not sure how that's going to work compared to the really sleek text of the original Book 8 which was a really tight and slick 2nd half of a 2 part novel, but we shall see...
The Gods of War - Volume 2
http://www.lulu.com/product/ebook/the-gods-of-war---volume-2/15392819
The second volume in the epic Gods of War saga comes to e-book with an all new edit to make it easier to read, especially on a Kindle. See Luke, Cindy, Amber and Pandora battle evil in its many guises alongside the gods pledged to protect humanity. See the werewolf uprising and its brutal put-down, as well as the opening gambit of Averruncus' plan to sieze control of the heavens and the earth.

sorting out my Kindle
I had really big generic collections, I've broken them up into smaller collections to make them more navigatable :)
Time Team was good
this week, quite enjoyed it on the whole, looking forward to the special this Thursday (if I remember to watch it that is)
listening to Vale Decem
it's the saddest music ever because it's the music that plays whenthe 10th Doctor regenerates

I need more storage room for my clothes
I don't have the room for it but I'd like another wardrobe for my blouses, skirts and dresses and another set of drawers for my tops & jeans, my current drawers are half taken up with my lingerie (my drawers are full of drawers ;))
sunlight fail
I ran out of useable sunlight to dry my duvet sheet so it's on the radiator while the other bedding is in the dryer getting rizzed :)
last load of washin in now
it's good when I can get it all done in one day, as it leaves the rest of the weekend for the rest of the housework :)
on editing my next e-book
The Gods of War - Volume 1, it's the same as the paperback version but the text needs a little massaging to make it work well on my kindle
3rd load of washing in the machine
doing all my dark clothing now, and playing WoW while I wait for them to finish
is it possible to own too many pink clothes
it seems that whenever I sort my waship up into groups the pink pile is always the largest, I'm not complaining as pink is my favourite colour but I don't want people to think that I wear it just to convince people I'm a woman, I wear it to express my femininity yes but also I do like the colour and how it suits my figure and my hair and eyes, maybe I'm just having an existential crisis?
first load of washing in the machine
want to get an early start on things the washing today so I can get it out on the line to dry, I don't mind putting my skirts and blouses and dresses on the line, but I don't like the idea of putting my bras, knickers and tights out on the line
watched HP movie
now watching the extras, there's some interesting stuff on it but not what I'd like, a trailer for part 2...

is back after a nice drive to the countryside and back again
it was a nice drive out on a nice spring evening, I had the windows down and some loud thrash metal tunes blasting out :) I really do enjoy a nice drive, it can be really relaxing as all I think about is my car and the road, it gives me a break from my own inner monologue :)
has worked out how to open two pages automatically when she starts her web browser up
it's all in the options menu basically, now I get google search engine and this blog to load up every time, so I can't forget to blog...
might wear my new dress tomorrow :)
it's got a shorter hemline to any of my other dresses, I wanted something a little sexy and daring to wear now that spring is here and I won't freeze my bum off if I don't wear jeans and thermal knickers
is back home after attending an LGBT networking event
I wondered if I'd learn anything, I think I learned too much in a way as it's going to take some time to mentally digest everything that I learned and see what things seem most urgent to consider, as a lesbian and a transwoman I feel there's not a whole lot of services out there for myself and I do want to do something about that. I want to kind of build up a really strong voice of the LGBT community where I live and help educate those who don't know what the needs of the LGBT community are, which in many ways are the same needs that every person has, I want to be able to see my GP, I want to get a train or a bus, I want to shop and save and contribute to society as an individual and as part of a greater society.
postie goodness
not only has Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 turned up in the post but so has The Day Today :)
I'm hoping Harry & co arrive today in the post
doubt they will but I am looking forward to rewatching Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 1, as the first film made the sucky part of the book look good and actually work as a storyline because the book version really doesn't.
'The Raithaduine Saga' is available to buy as an e-book
'The Raithaduine Saga' combines my very first full length novel 'Refugees of the Raithaduine' with its follow up 'Orphans of the Raithaduine' into one big action adventure sci-fi comedy romp. There's currently a 5% discount on the price so it's good value for money. The PDF format allows it to work on all current e-book reader, including the Kindle (which I'm re-reading and reliving it on atm) so you can save nearly £18 by getting the e-book version rather than the hardback version :)

I (still) love being a woman
It's just great to have my gender identity right, to simply be a woman and be treated and accepted as a woman, my life is better now that I've sorted out what was a fundamental error in who I was, it's so right now that I can be myself and face life head on and not hide away.
bought a new bra
it's black and sexy and is for wearing around the house without my chicken fillets so I get the proper size fit for my boobs until they start growing with the hormonal goodness
watched Big Train last night
it was ok, but not as good as the hype said it was, I like my surreal comedy to be incredibly surreal, show jumpers fighting fires was as close as it got for me
True Blood
can't wait for season 4 to start, can't wait for season 3 to be released on DVD even more, it should have been released at Christmas imo, at least I have a bottle of Tru Blood to keep me company while I think of Pam and Hadley and Sookie...
Has it really been almost a fortnight?
Since I was in London giving my little plastic thing a good blow? I still have my protest whistle somewhere, it'll come in handy until we can get a real government in charge of the nation instead of the (alleged) thieves and liars we have right now.
On the good drugs at last
Finally got my real anbd genuine prescription for feminising hormones :) I did self medicate years ago to desperatley get some small boobage but now I'm on the real deal to give me the soft womanly curves that nature didn't :) Can's wait until I have my own bust & bum without having to rely on padding to do it for me.
Spring, the time to wear skirts :)
Now that evil cold winter has gone with all its leg chilling nastiness it's now the perfect weather to wear skirts again and show off my pins, my best feature by far :)
New Who to look forward to
I'm really looking forward to Matt Smith's 2nd year as the Doctor, I'm hoping that he really builds and enhances on his amazing first year, the Christmas Special was a little under whealming so I'm hoping they've learned from their mistakes and I almost hope they do an anti-Christmas Christmas special this year because last year really overdid the Christmas thing and now I hate Christmas specials
Got a Kindle last month
it's great, amazon have a lot fo free books too, so I have some books to read :)
So today I have a day off
I'm just easing myself gently into the day this morning, haven't even had a cuppa yet, I'm that relaxed
I'm back
Just remembered that I have a blog, shame mode, been nearly 10 months since I posted, so there's quite a lot to go over, which I won't bore you to death with because most of it's boring stuff
