brokenrecordI bought The Hush Sound's "Goodbye Blues" on a whim since they're playing Honda Civic Tour and I remember hearing some music of theirs before and kind of liking it and OMG LOVE. I am enjoying this CD SO MUCH. Now I'm looking forward to Honda Civic Tour even more than I was before (and I was looking forward to it before an insane amount as it is).
Ugh, spring break is close to being over. Do not want. I am really dreading the second half of this semester. I have 3 papers (10 pp, 8 pp, and 4 pp), a major rewrite of a paper (the rewrite is worth 15% of my grade, which is actually more than the paper itself was worth), 5 tests, 1 in-class essay, and a short, abstract film. Plus, when I go back, I get to get the grades back from the tests I took right before break! Oh, fun. Speaking of school stuff, midterm grades are in, and so far I have two As, an A-, and a B+. Pretty happy with those grades, but I feel like the A- and the B+ are going to drop by the end of the semester. Oh well.
I have just a few comments on this week's episode of Torchwood.
Ok, so I enjoyed the Ianto/Jack sexing, but... can they please be shown as having more than sex? Or if that's all Jack wants, can we have some sign from Ianto that he wants more and Jack isn't giving it to him? Or something? Because I thought it was pretty clear from the premiere that if Ianto was going to get back with Jack, they were going to have to be more serious and not just be all about sex, and since then, all we've seen is allusions to them having lots of sex, but not much of a relationship. And they have had some more serious moments, but I don't know. It doesn't seem like much has changed since last year in regards to their relationship except they're more out in the open about it.
Also, I appreciated them actually showing us that Gwen is caring and all that rather than just telling us about it all the time, but Jack not telling her about the place was kind of contrived and pointless. Wouldn't it be better that she know about the place than think that Jack's a terrible person? And Ianto clearly knew about the place, so... what's the problem with telling Gwen? It made no sense. Oh well. It was an improvement over the last few episodes, at least. And we did get Jack/Ianto sexing, which does make me happy. And the next episode looks like it should be awesome, so I'm really looking forward to that.
