It’s WHO-riffic!

Just like last year, autumn turns my thoughts towards Dr. Who.

Found this quiz, so I took it:

You are the First Doctor: Irascible, brusque, and
occasionally condescending and rude. You do not
suffer fools gladly, nor do you harbor any
false modesty about your capabilities. You have
a sharp tongue, though you’re first-class
company when you’re in a good mood.

Which Incarnation of the Doctor Are You?

Kinda surprised me, actually. Given some of the questions, I figured that I’d be a shoe-in for the Sixth Doctor. The First is cool, though…a more respectable result, perhaps. I just saw “The Aztecs” for the first time (got the DVD as a gift), and thought it was probably the best one of his that I’ve ever seen. I love me some historicals.

Feeling much better now. Thanks to all who sent “Feel Better” messages via email. I actually felt quite a bit better by yesterday, but still kept a low profile due to my self-imposed 9/11 Media Blackout. I wasn’t interested in seeing any further politicization of that horrible event, or any of the TragiPorn that has sprung up around it (Hey, kids! It’s the anniversary! Let’s show grainy close-up video of people swan-diving out of the WTC windows!).

So, naturally, just when I decide to emerge from Media Blackout, the first thing I find out is that both John Ritter and Johnny Cash have died.

Well, shit.

BLEAH.

Came down last night with some kind of stomach plague. It kept me up most of the night, and, if you’ll excuse the horrible pun, kicked my ass well into the morning. I’ve got that lovely all-over ache now, like I’ve just finished fighting live-steel in full armor for 8 hours.

Still, good little trooper that I am, I dragged my carcass down the hall to my office this afternoon, and cranked out some work. I’m on schedule, which is good. Also managed to get the Adamant Entertainment Cafepress Store up and running, with various items of diverse interest. Check it out.

Tomorrow, my first Heroes of the New Wave Design Column goes live, which should be fun. There’s already some discussion over at the Adamant forum about it, and it hasn’t even really gotten started yet, which is a good sign of general interest.

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’ll go back to feeling like crap.
