I Am Also Doing Important Things, I Swear.

I become pathetically excited when an episode of The Real Hustle contains an entire five words of banter, honestly. "Carburettor's gone." "What's that?" "I don't know." THOSE TWO SECONDS EVERY THREE EPISODES ARE WHAT I WATCH THE PROGRAMME FOR, GUYS. Also please do not talk about cars, hustlers, or I will eventually cross you over with Top Gear and that will not end well.

No, it's too late; in my mind, the tragic disaster that was Jeremy's ownership of his Ford GT is already all the hustlers' fault. I'm not entirely sure how, but it will probably come to me.


In news almost entirely unrelated to hustling, I am back from [livejournal.com profile] newbie1990's house, where I had an absolutely lovely time and managed to forget all about my ARGH UNIVERSITY PANIC (this Saturday! aaaah!). We went for wild and windy walks and watched Scrubs and played Pictionary (you have not known madness until you have attempted to convey 'gastronomy' through drawing alone; this was not helped by the fact that I had somehow got it into my head that 'gastronomy' is the study of the stomach, which it, er, isn't), and it was generally wonderful and warm and I was very content.

Also, I got her to update her journal! Hurrah! I can only hope that she will carry on updating when I am not there to glare at her. And I'm not entirely certain that I managed to persuade her to write the Jeremy-is-a-total-James/Richard-'shipper fic, alas. [livejournal.com profile] dracothelizard, is your determination not to be swayed weakening yet?

I am aware that my meeting-Internet-friends entries are probably of very little interest to anyone apart from me and possibly the friends in question. But I do not care, because they make me happy.

I swear that you will SO write a Top Gear/The Real Hustle fanfic, in which it turns out that the Hustlers sold Jeremy the Ford GT.

Also, through a series of e-mails with [livejournal.com profile] littlemoose, the Jeremy-is-a-total-James/Richard-'shipper fic may have morphed into having a bit of Jeremy/James in there. So, in conclusion, James is a hussy and I'm still resisting writing it.

Either way will work just fine, I'''m sure. And of course you may.

I CAN'T WATCH REAL HUSSTLE AT UNI!! [/capslock]

I think that is what I'm going to do. I'm a bit lost without BBC3, I didn't realise how much I watched it late at night.

These posts make me happy, too! I'm glad you're having a good time with everyone!

Oh man, University? Scary! I'm wishing you well, even though you probably don't need it and will most certainly rock the university's socks right off with your wit and charm and general insanity. (Yes, universities wear socks, but they're well hidden. If you find them, though, a leprechaun appears riding a unicorn to whisper every digit of pi into your ear.)

You'll be fine at uni, sweet. Well, if you manage to ignore all the DEATH VIBES I will send you for not living close by anymore. Man, it's gonna be so weird! You've always been around my area! The one constant in my life...how will I terrify you if you're not within train distance?

(...I hope you realise that I had to edit this comment extensively to make sure I wasn't giving away your general whereabouts by mistake. You'd better appreciate it.)

CLEARLY YOU SHOULD WRITE THIS. Jeremy/Ford GT is glorious angst and coupling it with The Real Hustle would make it insane crack also.

almost entirely unrelated to hustling

...SHOULD I BE CONCERNED???

I am sure university will be marvellous and you will have glorious fun and excellent grades and everything will be fine. Because you're awesome.

It was excellent and wonderful and I am exceedingly glad that my general failure to talk did not cause you to HATE ME FOREVER.

I am sure I will probably continue updating. I stand by my belief that you should write that fic. Because I say so.

I like the posts!

You'll be glad to hear that I actually watched about ten minutes of the Real Hustle the other day, and it's not bad! I might watch it the next time I'm around and it's on t'telly.

Good luck at uni!
