Torchwood. Yes. I like cousins with BBC Iplayer. (Hello mythmanlegend!)

1. If her skin was so unbreakable, how exactly were her ears pierced?

2. Why does super-sekkrit organisation Torchwood write its own name above the wheel on its black tinted-window super-sekkrit land rover?

3. When did Ianto turn into the wise-cracking everything-knowing Holly of the Torchwood crew? Was there some strange alien accident that we aren't getting told about, or is it just that he's finally getting some action?

Healing, healing. It's a good place to be. I'm in a house with a bath in it too.

I just wish that I hadn't got drunk on port and decided it was a really good idea to change the jewellry in my not-yet-healed accidentally-through-the-cartilage ear piercing. I am now in crusty-inflamation-central, but I don't think it's actually infected.. it's just very very solid in its swelling, almost like a piece of dried macaroni through the ear. Which is disconcerting, but not at all manky or pus-filled (pus-filled is a much better word than pussy. much less prone to ambiguous interpretation kthx less talk of pussy piercings now my cousin is reading this haha)

Ahahahahaha. I hadn't even noticed that. (I really like how Torchwood writes its name on its super-sekrit-stuffs. I presume it's unintentionally funny, but it always makes me laugh. Somehow for me the series would be less without it. But that might just be me.)

yay baths!

I thought Ianto was turning into Xander. Ianto is a bit of an odd name becuase you only get it in really welsh areas of Wales, where it is really common, like James.

Torchowood is the least super sekrit organisation in the world. They have their own teevee show!

False image projection to deter doctors from thinking something is up with her.

I assumed that they were put on Earth as adults, not children, and so would be in an observed common human shape - a common adult female human shape is with a hole in the lobe of each ear. Presumably some of them could have had tattoos.

Ohh, this makes me think of the Nano genes from the first new series of Who, where they recognised what they say and made everyone else like it... if that had been a woman with pierced ears they healed, presumably everyone else would have been given a gas mask and a metal bar through their ears...?

she made herself like that (when she was active)

1) It was part of her disguise.

2) They're not super-sekkrit! The first epidsode of this season proved that- "Bloody Torchwood" said lady by the fish-car. Also, they never say they're secretive. They always turn up to places and say they're Torchwood to get in. And a good slice of Cardiff knows Torchwood deals with something odd (see PC saying "This could be one of yours" at the start of this episode.) What they're secretive about is precisely what Torchwood involves.

3) They've all changed. Ianto is suddenly wise-cracking, Owen is far less of a twat. It's a big shift. I assume it's because they didn't have Jack doing everything, and so actually had to deal with shit themselves. They've all grown up.
Or because they went to the Himalayas chasing a Yeti, and became Enlightened.

Seeing as I'm locked back out, thankfully

Well, her calling me a fucking coward, and fucking pathetic etc etc isn't fair, nor is it ok. Nor is leaving multiple messages a day threatening to burn my stuff or chuck it out. Nor is refusig to give back my MOTHER's stuff. It's not fair to ask someone with a weirdly shifted job and very limited money to make a 200 miles round journey either.

She's been given a very detailed explanation as to why I cannot and will not see her or talk to her right now. It involves huge amounts of tranquilizers, and many hours of crying at my psych. I am not stable enough to deal with her, because she will not be rational. All I want is to be able to discuss this rationally once we both have some distance and perspective, but she won't let me gain that as she won't let me have any break in contact - she is constantly mailing/messaging even though I asked her not to.

And I think anyone who tells her she's being reasonable and that I'm the unreasonable one is entirely unfair, as none of you give a damn to how she's acting. You only see what she wants you to. She's not the holier than thou only injured party. She's not the only one who has been hurt. I should have walked away when she cheated on my multiple times and posted pics on her fucking facebook really as saved the heartbreak, but I didn't listen to those trying to protect me because I loved her. And then she changed.

I have said enough, I feel, I just needed to make it very clear that I am not the horrible person she makes out, and maybe if it weren't for her drinking, her constant tirade about me not being good enough or around enough, and 4am drunken angry phonecalls, maybe it could have worked. But emotional abuse isn't pretty or fair. So it's over.

shit.. see i had no idea you were 200 miles away. given that your friends were clearly in ox i'd assumed that you were too.

i'm not going to apologise for trying to comfort somebody who was clearly in pain.. but i really am sorry that this shit is happening to you.

as somebody who's less than 2 weeks from a sensless painful break-up herself, i'm feeling you, yeah?

No, you wouldn't, as she's not going to explain my side of things, of course. But that's the situation. 99.7 miles each way just isn't on when I've offered to pay postage and speak when we both have some distance - which I haven't got due to the constant barrage of messages telling me how shit I am. I have friends all over, most of the oxford ones now aren't speaking to me, because Lauren has made me out to be a monster.

I don't want an apology, I just wanted to put my point across. And thanks. It is shit.

Sorry for you. Sadly, this wasn't senseless, this was so rational. We were both miserable, all we did was fight, all she did was accuse me of ignoring her (no...10 hour shifts in a phone free zone mean I don't reply straight off, funnily enough) and threaten me. And all I could do was back off.

In answer to your question...

[notintheseheels.livejournal.com]

Of course. You seem interesting, I've added you.
