Mesdames et messieurs, bienvenue au carnaval de l'aléatoire.
Expect everything.

Geek-girl, poet, political miscreant, liberal activist, Goddess of Eclectica, spoken-word performer.

I love movies, music, books, and Doctor Who. I mean - I REALLY LOVE DOCTOR WHO.

Any questions?
Things you are likely to find here: Rants, poetry, pretty pretty pictures, DOCTOR WHO, SHERLOCK, reviews, opinions that you may or may not agree with, thinky thoughts on the constitution and pretty much anything else that strikes my fancy.
