After a busy weekend - exam proctoring, cloak room duties, research for the paper I have to hand in on Friday - and a busy day at work, I'm home and off work till Wednesday \o/

On my way home, Cookie - who had to call in sick this morning - told me there was a big surprise waiting for me, and there was!



Our tickets for the Panic! gig in London in February!!


I kept mum about the whole thing because I was afraid I would jinx it but now that the tickets are in our hands I can officially get excited about a) going to London again early February (we'll be arriving on Thursday, leaving on Saturday) and b) the idea of seeing Panic! at the Disco again ♥ It'll be my third time. Who would have thought? It'd seem I'm keeping the "A different country for each gig" theme that has been going on as far as Panic is concerned. First time was in France, second in Germany and third time - if everything goes according to plan #KnocksWood #AndAllThat - in the UK. I quite enjoy that theme ;-)

Something unrelated now - though it also brings a lot of excitement and happiness in my fannish life - is White Collar. I've been in a WhiCo mood the past week(s) and have been watching a couple of episodes every evening in order to be ready for the new episode to air. I've also been paying daily visits to the White Collar part of AO3 and reading many WhiCo fics - Peter/Neal, Peter/Neal/El, Clinton/Neal, Keller/Neal... you get the idea :-) Then last night I found this sneak peek that I'd completely missed and it brought the excitement up a notch. I rewound a couple of times and then felt compelled to pause at 0:56 and squee. Then I rushed to our bedroom and jumped on the bed to show the video to Cookie so that I could squee with her. Good times! I just can't wait, really. I've also squeed about what has been said about season 4 and the fact that "Peter is going to learn a lot about Neal's past" This tidbit of intel filled me with glee!

Anyway. The gist of this entry was: busy weekend, busy Monday, happy evening, happy plans and happy shows \o/

I swear, one of these days you and I are going to run into each other in London. I'll be there for five days in March....

Lol Imagine if we actually met in a country that isn't ours?

What have you planned for your trip?

Nothing special. My sister's coming over as well, although we're not traveling together, and she'll stay on a day or two longer. She has some things that she wants us to do (the Borough Market, dinner at a restaurant she likes). I still haven't done the London Eye or seen Westminster Abbey, so maybe we'll do that. Maybe a show?

Aww... I'll be in London the next weekend in February. :(

But glad you have good plans. :D

Aww such a pity! I did love the idea of seeing you as part of my trips to London ;-) Another time, I hope!

Sorry! :( Liverpool is so lame and so far away that it's a lot of money and 2 hours each way to get there. Lots of notice and I'll be there next time!

Hey, no worries, it's not as if you actually lived in London! I enjoy it whenever we meet up, but I'm planning on coming to London again and again, so I'm sure we'll find another opportunity to see each other :-)

Heee! Tickets! :D I hope you'll have an awesome time. But with your "one gig in every country" rule... does that mean ONLY one gig? What if they come back? lol

Yes, TICKETS \o/

J'avais pas réfléchi à ce petit détail lol Je crois que je m'étais tellement préparée à ne jamais les voir, et ensuite à ne les voir plus d'une fois, et ensuite à ne les plus les revoir en France que je n'ai pas vraiment pensé à une nouvelle tournée avec un petit détour par chez nous. Quand ils reviendront en France, je changerai la règle, pas de problème ;-)

If they ever come to Belgium... You can stay at our place!

I haven't seen White Collar yet, though I hear good things about it. I don't manage to watch anything but what they show on tv here and even then, I'm having a hard time catching it all. Oh, wait, I'm lying. I bought the first season of Warehouse13 on DVD and watched a few eps so far. Also got season 5 of Dexter on DVD for my Birthday and going to try and watch that someday soon, but that's for when I'm home alone cause Tom doesn't follow that one and I think Alby's a tad too young for it :P We're watching Terra Nova at the moment although somewhat predictable, I'm quite liking it.

And yay for days off!

Ohh I'll definitely remember the invitation, thanks!

You should really give White Collar a try, it's a fun and sweet show with fantastic characters.

I've heard about Terra Nova but haven't watched a single episode...

Days off are good for the soul! Just like quiet evenings ;-)
