Third day our of four spent in John's presence today. Christ, mate, I need a break. ;) Nah, I love you.

Saw Mary for the first time in years today! She was so surprised. (Your face, Mary!) But it was wonderful to see her. We spent most of Sherlock sitting on the floor, because S absolutely refused to give me any couch space again. I'm starting not to feel like myself.

Didn't go to the pub afterward, because Jenny got angry at me for how 'slobberingly drunk' I was yesterday. Still had a drink though, thanks to let_us_trade . We appreciate it, mate. (Best mascot ever.)

I brought a bottle of Peach non-alcoholic wine-- it disappeared. I don't mean someone drank it, I mean I think in a week someone is going to cut themselves on broken glass in a highly unlikely place, and everything will be sticky.

Hopefully it'll turn up miraculously at the back of John and S's fridge, but I doubt it.

In other news, several more restraining orders possibly to come, Bill is The Best Guard Dog, salts_theway is an absolutely lovely, strong young lady as long as you aren't her target for some reason, Mary makes amazing cake and if enough popcorn gets caught in S's hair, don't be surprised if he dumps a bowl of it on your head.

Considering its length, I don't even understand how that happened, but showers for all. But none of you are here for that. You are here for BBC's Sherlock. So here's what I think about that.

Stamford was the best character. No really. ;) Seriously, though I love all of the supporting cast, especially the lovely if abused morgue technician.

Sherlock's deduction of John, practically straight out of canon, be still my heart. And so many lovely little bits straight out of canon, oh, it was wonderful! The first episode's name, for heaven's sake, Study in Pink!

Boy, Rupert Graves has a nice smile, doesn't he?

So many gay moments. I can't tell if they're illusions to the possibility of Doyle's Holmes and Watson being gay or in support of the current atmosphere in society (not to mention writers plugging their own feelings about things in) but I can't say I'm complaining, even if the restaurant scene itself was a little awkward.

I remember all of you complaining on holmeschat about the new Sherlock. Eating your words, now, aren't you. ;)

Mycroft was wonderful. And his assistant... so very pretty on the eyes, but I'm far more impressed by all the very translatable looks she gave. Methinks I may write a short or two about her.
