I had two eventful days, people. In the most beautiful way, though, as we have a new member in our family as of yesterday!
Killian, my brand new nephew (son of one of my closest cousins), was born yesterday morning at 11h16, precisely ;) Everyone was pretty excited, as you can imagine, and last night actually kinda felt like Christmas as the whole family gathered at my parents' (barring the new mom and baby Killian, obviously) to celebrate. It was such a joyful evening ♥
I couldn't wait to meet him, which was done this afternoon (after a lovely brunch with a couple of friends. I love me some brunch!). He is absolutely tiny and gorgeous and tiny and just so new, I'm always in awe of a newborn's "newness", know what I mean?
It's exciting to know we'll have three kids at Christmas this year instead of two :) Incidentally, my nieces were very excited about this new cousin of theirs, I can't wait for them to grow up together ♥
On the fannish side of things. Cookie is working tonight and I'm not (obviously) so I'm having a night on my lonesome. I treated myself with the latest two episodes of POI; (omg, I thought those two episodes were awesome and so tense and so packed with action but why did they have to kill Carter, why?? I'm going to miss her so much! I hate that feeling that by "gaining" Shaw, we actually lost Carter. I love Shaw, I do, but not to the extent that I love-d Carter. Those last two minutes of 3x09 had me sitting at the edge of my seat, I was kinda hiding behind my shirt because you just knew something bad was going to happen in a very "I'm a leaf on the wind!" kinda way and then it happened and WHY CARTER? *sobs* Not that I wanted John to die, obviously, I just didn't want Carter to be killed either... Her death was the second time I cried in the ep; the first was when Fusco was talking to his son on the phone trying to reach out to him in what he believed was his child's last moment, I felt teary at the idea of him having to listen to his son being killed (and at this kid facing his death like that) but when he went "close your eyes, I'm here" I just couldn't help myself. That scene... Damn, POI just broke my heart with that episode, really.) and now I'm in front of France4, the network that airs Doctor Who.
They're doing a DW Special tonight, which makes me very happy, as you can imagine :) They're airing "The Name of the Doctor" as I type before broadcasting, like many other countries, "The Day of the Doctor". I am so excited at the idea that I'll be sharing the experience with many, many other fans around the world! Worldwide broadcasts are love ♥

I'm glad to know I've just shared this experience with you too! :D (I was in a cinema, and I know at least two other friends who were in other cinemas. Yay for worldwide broadcasts!)

I wish I'd actually been physically there with you but, yes, the knowledge that we shared the same experience is pretty fantastic :) And you were in a cinema! How awesome was that? I can only imagine the atmosphere!
