Jury duty, day 2. Exhausted. Tempted to do both Yuletide *and* NaNoWriMo now, gods help us all.

Nightmare on Elm Street is showing this Saturday, November 1, at midnight at the Landmark Sunshine Cinema on Houston between 1st and 2nd; anyone who wants to is more than welcome to meet up with me there (look for the guy in the black hat).

David Tennant has announced that he will leave the award winning BBC drama Doctor Who when he has completed the filming of four special episodes which will be screened in 2009 and early in 2010.
