I have noticed something. Neutrons are, as the name suggests, neutral; this is why isotopes of an element have differing physical and not chemical properties. They cannot be forced to flow towards either cathode or anode. Therefore, reversing the polarity of the neutron flow will achieve nothing whatsoever.
I'm quite pleased with this little realisation.
Anyway, moving on. I spent yesterday afternoon very pleasantly, going to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
purplerainbow. I was early, so I had a wander around Liverpool, into Waterstone's to find something new to read - I've finished everything I took to Australia, which I should actually review one of these days - but didn't really find anything. Yesterday, I was sorting through my bedside table drawers, finding all sorts of treasures in the shapes of letters and postcards and photographs (the plan is to pin them to my wall at university), and came across a small pink card I had apparently never opened. It turned out to be a "congratulations on passing your GCSEs" card, with WHSmith vouchers inside. So I went down there, and one thing sort of led to another and I now seem to have acquired a DVD of Pyramids of Mars. hathy_col has similarly come into possession of The Five Doctors, so we're having another Old-Skool-Who geekfest next week.
Talking of which, I love my fandom. All the stuff that has come to light since I've got back makes me squee. The Doctor's new costume is ohmygodtehsex, really. It's sort of what would happen if you mixed up Sherlock Holmes and the Kaiser Chiefs with a bit of what the BBC are calling "geek chic" and it's lovely. I was never that fond of the leather jacket. I mean, it does work for Nine, but the thing I really love about the new outfit is that it really does give off an air of a Time Lord trying to pass as human but not quite getting it right. (The Converse! I want some.) And the Doctor is a geek, as well. His claimed defining feature is his doctorate and he says things like "reverse the polarity of the neutron flow." Such a geek, yay.
( other v.minor season two stuff )
Back to yesterday. I thoroughly enjoyed Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Psychedelic and warped and Johnny Depp is very good, but has a strange vocal resemblance to Michael Jackson. It's dark, more like the book, and I haven't had so much fun at a film for ages.
Afterwards, Hannah and I got rained on, but eventually dried off and had a very nice dinner and made plans for next week. All good fun. And now, I think I want to go to bed. Or write more Doctor femmeslash. I haven't quite decided.
