But WAIT! There's more! And....Videos!

I made it home safely after 14 hours of driving. My car is also safe. No tickets, no damage, and only just a smidge of sleep deprivation (so much, that I first wrote "depravation," because my sleep is apparently depraved?). Therefore, by smidge, I clearly intended the exact opposite of the word (which, according to my trusty thesaurus, is "lot"). Just waiting to hear that Button returned safely to her home and then off to bed for me.

We saw Kai Owen this (yesterday, actually) morning, too, in the lobby. I was going out to have a cigarette, but must've looked quite the stalker. Oops. In fact, I almost turned around so as NOT to look like a stalker. But, dammit, nicotine won over any sense of self-preservation.

Of course, I said what I usually say when I end up behind someone (you know, non-famous people in line at the checkout counter or something): "I'm following you!" Nice, Saria. Open mouth, insert foot. Sometimes, I wonder about myself.

We chatted a bit, and I fear I was utterly awkward. It didn't help that it was early and I was still half-asleep/starved/giddy/under-caffeinated. I don't even remember the conversation, other than that I thanked him, chatted a bit about our respective travel times, and then shook hands. He went back in, wishing us a safe journey. 'Twas all good, I suppose but I still feel guilty for bothering him. He must've thought I was nuts (especially as I went out with just a t-shirt; I like the cold, but he doesn't know that). At least I got to have my damn cigarette (which will apparently kill me via humiliation before anything else ever manifests). 

Oh, and side note? My mom thinks that both the poem and "What the fuck" are hilarious additions to my picture. Still going in my cubicle, all "inappropriate language" aside. HA! 



 VIDEOS! From the panel we attended.

The first is from Button. 




The second is from someone. I thank him/her, deeply, for posting as I wasn't able to get it on our cameras. *Warning for language*

Yay! Thanks for these, they're brilliant!

Glad you're home safe =)

Oh, I want to watch the videos so badly, but I can't, not tonight. The kids are asleep and so is the hubs, so some loud, slightly (most definitely) inappropriate language would not go over well. I promise to check it out in the morning, as I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY want to hear GDL and his coffee rap!

Just watched with no sound - GDL looks bloody good! I can't wait to hear Kai sing as well, he looked so bloody happy!

Oh god, they're both good. I loved Kai singing and the coffee rap!
Thank you so much for sharing!
I can now never listen to JB sing "I am what I am" without thinking of Kai's version. :DD

I can't watch the vids until tomorrow, either! *hangs head* I should check the YouTube for anything else that may've posted.

I just commented on Button's journal. I'm really stoked about her Ianto's diary project! I've seen a few fics on that subject but I'm betting hers is gonna be very good! :D

Yesterday I broke down and set up an Amazon.com account when I found out they accepted debit cards (and Barnes & Noble's Torchwood stock is beyond lame)! Right off the bat I bought a Captain Jack poster! *squee* I'm hoping to save some money and buy every John Barrowman CD and concert DVD in existence!

Thank you! And they are! Apparently, the first was written by someone named Harriet (?) and the second was from some band if Google isn't lying to me. I loved them both dearly! :)

Did you hear them yet? Didja? Didja? Huh? :-D

[identity profile] sariagray.livejournal.com 2010-12-01 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
Haha! Isn't it just wonderful? It made my year, that's for sure! And Kai has a really good voice. Apparently, Burn can sing, too. And so can Naoko. Eve, so they told us, cannot. (Someone asked about a Torchwood musical...).

I think they should do a Torchwood musical anyway. Gwen's supposed to be special. Maybe special means No Singing? ;-)

Amazon will be the death of me! Be careful. :)

Let me know when you watch the videos! They still make me giggle.

First - shit! Thanks for reminding me *hangs head in shame*

Second - bloody hell, that was brilliant! Gareth might have some competition if he isn't careful - Kai isn't that bad, really. Funny and cute as hell, as well.

As for Gareth and his coffee rap - tears, I'm telling you! Absolutely brilliant and once again, proving that his voice is just to die for *drools*

Ooh, a Torchwood musical, yes!
I bet TW has karaoke nights! Sometimes Janet and Myfanwy join in!

*still hanging head* Still haven't watched the vids (sorry!). Got caught up in a stupid near crisis with my poor old car... Also finally got disc 1 of Dr. Who s5 from Netflix. I was only able to watch the first episode, but I already LOVE Matt Smith! :D

I will be careful with Amazon. I'm already trying to curb my spending until the holidays (suggested to Mom maybe she could get me a gift card). I mentioned all this when I chatted with my buddy [livejournal.com profile] zazajb today and she sweetly offered to send me copies from her JB/Torchwood collection! *blushes* The overall generosity of the fandom continues to amaze me. :) Takes me back to when I was following Depeche Mode during high school and I would exchange photos, articles, and mix tapes all the time with various pen pals. I guess I'll never really grow up (and I hope I never do)!

Almost forgot to mention: RTD wrote in his last memoir that Benny and Bjorn from ABBA are big TW fans and wanted to write a musical based on the show! Don't know if it's ever gonna get off the ground. TW Mag mentioned a small theater group in the UK that was putting together a TW musical.

PS: David Tennant wanted to do a all-musical episode of Dr. Who (a la Buffy)!

I love the thought of Torchwood karaoke nights! *mind drifting to Jack and Ianto singing a romantic duet* ;D

Just finally watched the videos! LOVED. THEM. :D Wonder if John knows about Kai's little ditty...

I've seen Gareth do the coffee rap before and it never fails to make me laugh!

Finished Who s5 disc 1. This reboot is BRILLIANT! :D

*hugs for you*
