    "Renette, if you please," said the Doctor. "And..." He swallowed. "Uh... yes."
    "While you were travelling with Rose," Jack added. "And she didn't mind?"

    The Doctor stood up abruptly, extending his hand and giving her a wink. "How do you do? I'm the Doc--"
    "Stop it," said Jack.

I paid $5 for a quick two-month membership with LiveJournal. Why not? It's only five bucks, and I can give a free code to somebody else who wants to be a member of the GryffindorTower or SugarQuill LJ communities. But I'll be sticking to my Blog.

The big advantage of joining up is that I'll be able to comment on other users' posts as myself, rather than anonymously. So, that's my post. To see whatelse is happening in my life, click here. Thanks!
