Work was okay today because I spent most of it folding letters, which was great because the time totally flew by. I'm told that there is more folding to be done. Two geniuses questioned me about my folding technique. Um. Whatever. I can do four times as many as you can in an hour. Pfft.
After work, I headed to the mall to check out Build-a-Bear. Shut up. I bought the black canvas shoes and the glasses, but they didn't have the pinstripe suit! *woe* I guess I'll have to order that from the site at some point. It's okay though; my $10 coupon thingy doesn't come in until February so I have time.
I had a look at the Bearemy bear again in the store and that is so the bear I am using for Ten. I think that's what I'll call him. Hm. Maybe put Tenth Doctor on the naming certificate. I have put waaaay too much thought into this.
shoemaster -- They have a Mountie RCMP tee. DUDE.
veracity thinks I should make a Rose Bear to go with the Ten Bear. But which one would she be? Hrm.... Pink Cuddles Teddy is my closest guess. Hah, or maybe Pink Kisses. I'd say Sassy Kitty if the Doctor hadn't seemed so put off by cats after that New Earth experience. In the Poodle Skirt outfit? Hm. But I don't want a Rose. I'd rather have a Reinette.
Looked at some of the dresses for Kaylee Bear and the ballerina outfit is the closest thing to the "Shindig" dress I could find. Meh.
I put much too much thought into this sort of thing. it can't be healthy.
OH HEY, I almost got hit by two cars tonight. Two. The first was when I was parking at the mall. I was waiting for someone to pull out and as they were doing so, I go to pull in, but this asshat in a white sedan SPEEDS INTO THE SPOT. WHAT THE FRACK?! That's the first time I ever honked my horn at someone, because seriously, folks, what the fuck?
The second time was driving into my development. There is a street that merges into the one I have to drive down but they have a fucking STOP SIGN. Well, I see this guy slow down and I'm thinking, "he's going to stop," because HELLO, STOP SIGN. Except he doesn't and if I didn't hit my brakes, he would have crashed into the side of my car. He did slow down to nearly a stop when, you know, he almost HIT ME. The hell is wrong with people today?!
Meh. Whatever.
In other news, Joe Mallozzi's blog made fandomwank. First he makes a comment about fans being lemmings and then tries to clarify it... by calling us a mob of...hysterical, ignorant cretins? Hey, it's his blog, he can say whatever he wants. But it's also a free internet and by having a public blog (and being a producer on a show with a very reactionary fandom), he should except some people to... you know, react. Plus, you know producer of the show -- who else are we going to complain to? The coffee boy?
My mom is leaving for Taiwan tomorrow, which means I need to go to bed soon so I can get up at the crack of dawn to take her to the airport. If I get to work early, I'm going to see if I can leave early too. Maybe go get my hair cut.

Date: 2007-01-18 04:10 am (UTC)Nah, they don't have a Reinette outfit, really. The best I could do would be to get the Angel outfit, remove the wings, and then the Goddess outfit for the gold accessories.
no subject
Date: 2007-01-18 04:17 am (UTC)I was thinking of a Rose bear (dang you!), and I have another outfit picked out for her. When I get a job, that's on my list. We have a Build-A-Bear at the Mall of Georgia (which is like 5-10 minutes away) so I could get it there. If I were to get my Rose now, I'd get LOVE Denim Outfit, which just seems to be like her for some reason. She's always seemed quirky to me.
You'd have to remove the halo, too. *laugh* It's be hard to make one. I'd wait like six months and see if they come up with anymore outfits first.
no subject
Date: 2007-01-18 04:23 am (UTC)I think the halo is attached to the wings XD But anyway... once I get my Ten bear, I'll have had my Build-a-Bear fix to hold me over for a while...

Date: 2007-01-18 04:30 am (UTC)But. YES. You should totally build the bear!! You could have Rose. I will have Ten. They can long distance angst at each other XD
Hm. Buy bits and pieces when you go to the mall? $10 here. $12 there. I think that'll be my strategy this time.
no subject
Date: 2007-01-18 04:34 am (UTC)Because oh my god, the Rose bear would be so cute! And the wig I'd get just because you know, Rose was such a blonde at times. *grins* I run with themes. And a cellphone, since you know, she never went anywhere without it.
It'll be just like parallel world that'll never meet. *giggles* Too perfect. Cause I don't like Ten, and you do. *grins*

Date: 2007-01-18 04:43 am (UTC)Man, how can I contribute to this delinquency? I'm all excited about someone else making a Rose bear because it's a great idea, but I don't want to be the one to own her. LOL
Your birthday is too far away.no subject
Date: 2007-01-18 04:49 am (UTC)*laugh* Just give me a couple months, I'll see if I can get Rose done by the time my car insurance is due in three months. That gives me a goal. I need to put in more apps (boy is the a boring part of the job search). You own the one I don't want, and I'll own the Rose one. That way, all that angst will covered and they can lean against walls and sob.

Date: 2007-01-18 04:18 am (UTC)You might want to consider getting the dress up highlander outfit too. Perhaps then you can call the bear David. (ducks)

Date: 2007-01-18 05:23 pm (UTC)But as noted, I won't be. And I'm glad you worked out a solution to the Rose bear issue -- as I was going to post to say, there's no reason whatsover for you to make a Rose bear if you don't want one, because she's clearly an optional accessory for the Doctor even on the show itself. (If Ten-bear needs a companion, I'm sure he'd get on fantastically with Kaylee-bear.) Also, you're right about the kitty making a good Rose were it not for Ten's cat issues -- something about the eyes...
