Yes, things are much better.

cons_detective is napping on the sofa with his feet in my lap and has calmed down a lot since this morning.

But man, I'm telling you. Waking up to a kettle being thrown across the kitchen is not good for PTSD. So I woke up in a bad mood because he was in a bad mood, and I may have come off a bit more harsh than I'd meant to in my post this morning. Add to that I didn't get my tea because the kettle had broken when it knocked the drying rack for the dishes off the counter, and no-one was happy.

Again, and I don't think I said this enough last time, thank you to those who were trying to be comforting to him yesterday. I think it does help him to know that not everyone out there dislikes him, even if he doesn't quite know what to do with that information.

I'm glad to hear things are calmed down. Sorry that you have to buy a new kettle.

Is the offer from yesterday still valid for...tomorrow, at the earliest?

Always!

We'll try to get some stuff cleared up before you come over. I'd planned on trying to get to it today, but... you know. Stuff.

Better make that day after tomorrow.

Noted.

Will you be joining us this time, or still going to be busy?

She gets to go home after her paperwork's done - I get to read it. Not this time, unfortunately.

Ah, right. Shame.

Try to set aside the 11th. The BBC adaptation starts then, and I want to have a sort of watchalong shindig at mine.

I promise

cons_detective won't bite. And I'll put him on the naughty step if he does.

Are we aiming for a watchalong then? I could go for one of those. We'll have everything wrapped up by then. ~~Oh God I hope we have it all solved by then...~~

That's the hope, yeah.

neveryou_again and

w_harry should both be there, and I'm gonna see about a few others.

Hopefully my flat can handle it!

Oh, a real live watchalong? That'll be interesting...

Yeah, you know. Just a few people -- those I've known for a while and all that. But don't feel guilty if you can't make it or have to drop out. I know you've got an insane job, and I don't know how you handle it. I can barely get through a day at the surgery sometimes.

Yeah, we'll definitely see.

Though at this rate, I think it's going to be me and

salts_theway and maybe

andres_son gathered around the portable tv we got for camping trips trying to make the blasted thing work long enough for us to catch the whole episode. That's what recording it all's for though, I suppose.

Oh, that's gotta be... interesting. Those two in the same room, I mean.

I don't envy you there, mate.

You have no idea. But you're right - maybe I'll just watch it at home. Five screaming kids isn't half as bad as the lot here... ;-)

Oh, I wouldn't know about that. Then again, the only kids I have to deal with are the ones that come into the surgery.

I'll be good. I'll let him decide his own behaviour.

Probably the easiest way to go about it all.

w_harry will be on her best behavior, especially if I have my say. I'm excited to get to see you again, and that bloke of yours as well.

S will be on his as well.

I know he likes you, which was very refreshing to learn, so that should make things easier at least. I'm just hoping he and Harry don't come to heads.

Hey, I can host another internet watchalong at my journal, that way even those of us who aren't cozy with each other in rl can get in on this fun. You guys in? If so, you provide the beer, and I'll provide the popcorn!

That might be a good idea, yeah. As much as we get along, I really don't think S would go for you turning up. Sorry. :(

Of course, I understand.

cons_detective, and I have had our past, and there's nothing that we can do to change that.

Yeah, sorry. :(

We'll have to get together for lunch or something one of these days, at least.

Absolument! I only have Mondays off until my show opens, but after that I am free for a bit.

Actually, I have a few extra comped tickets if you and S would like to come see my show? Call it an appeasement, of sorts ;)

Oh, that would be lovely! It might take me a few days to talk him into it, but I'm sure he'll have fun in the end. He doesn't really have the sort of income that lets him go out much, so it should be a good change of pace for him.

Yeah, it's the Real Inspector Hound, a play about a play... sort of. It gets sort of meta and self reference-y in a really fun way. Opens on the 17th.

Maybe S can try to figure out whodunit.
