Boxing Day Miscellanea
I hope you all had a lovely Christmas if you celebrate. And now, onward!
I thought the DW Christmas Special was disappointing. Not enough Amy and Rory! But Eleven was hilarious and adorable, as always (especially when pretending to be a babysitter), and it was kind of cute that Amy and Rory were playing dress up on their honeymoon. ;) The S6 trailer looks great--I can't wait!
In the department of Christmas presents, my dear little brother got me a sonic screwdriver, haha. And I got a bunch of iTunes credit--any suggestions for downloads? My favorite artist right now is Regina Spektor, but I like a lot of folky pop and alternative and some electropop.
Also, anybody play chess? I am spectacularly awful at it, but I recently got a Chess.com account (free!) and would love to play against you lovely people. Even better if you wanted to play a couple tutorial-type games so I could find out what I'm doing wrong, but I wouldn't expect that of anyone, of course. They let you set your time limit and they have a chat function. I'm Mercury_10 over there if you're interested. :)

As for music, you should check out Girlyman! They're a folk-pop trio with absolutely gorgeous harmonies and wonderful songwriting. Here's a Doctor Who S1 vid set to their song "Hey Rose," and here's a performance of "Joyful Sign."
Also, Mumford & Sons are worth checking out. Here's an Amy/Rory vid set to [part of] "Sigh No More," and there's a music player on their website.
