Okay, while I've been a lot less angry about my job lately, there is one thing that still drives me insane, and that's noise. I don't deal very well with loud noises anyway (music is different, because that's not noise, but even so I prefer that to be loud for me and quiet for everyone else, except at a concert or something, because I'm neurotic like that), but it's magnified by a factor of ten when I'm on the phone. I have a hard time concentrating on a phone conversation when anything is going on in the background, especially conversation, because my brain starts listening to the background conversation and then I get confused. So when I'm trying to do my job, which involves lots of telephone conversations, and people are standing right by my desk talking rather loudly, or even jumping up and down (so kidding!) halfway across the floor, it really annoys me, and I don't appreciate having eyes rolled at that annoyance. I'm all for enjoying your job, folks, but that's no reason to impede my ability to even do mine.

In more pleasant news, the (spoilery, natch) new companion photos are very pleasing. Well, in that New Companion is hot, anyway. I'm somewhat less convinced about Tennant's shirt.

Also, have asked CO if she'd like to come along to Pirates, and she was v. enthusiastic, whee!

Woe! There is no 'Keira Knightley's boobies' option!

Ooh, new Companion is hot, but boy I hope that shirt was just for the photo shoot.

Drive-by chocolating! Clearly CO is made for you. :P

I hate outside noises, too. :-/ The only time they don't distract me is when I'm reading a really good book, or fanfiction, in which case I rather annoyingly forget to be distracted, as people show up behind my shoulder when I'm not expecting them to. *g*

The new companion is very pretty indeed. Have we seen her before? She seems strangely familiar. I don't mind the shirt too much -- I've been in LotRips fandom for a while now, and they all have terrible taste in shirts. So I got used to it. Anyway, I got into Dr Who because of Tennant, so... Unless he shows up in a pink baby doll, I'll stick by him (although, come to think of it, the pink baby doll could be interesting).

And PotC it is, apparently. *g* No idea when it comes out, here, though I'd love to see it! And, yes, Johnny Depp, definitely! I think that's the only celebrity that really makes me go OMGgorgeoussexyajfklsmd. But also just the funneh. And the horror comedy thing. Me loves those, too. :D

Yes on the noise! Makes me batty. :\

New companion is very pretty, and she looks good with Ten. The shirt is not so pretty, but he's got great hair in the pics!

Wheee! She's giving you chocolates. *bounce* And now I'm in the mood for mushy love songs. *g*

No Jack Davenport in that poll? For shame! ;)

*cheers you on concerning the CO!*

So, do we get to meet CO? Yay! I will be good, I promise. Really. REALLY! :)

Also, Yay! Pirates! (Do you want me to pick up another ticket?)

Third: Guh. I audio type. I've considered actually hurting people who talk when I'm trying to type. Because lawyers *mumble*.

I've been assuming that David Tennant's hairstyle and outfit is because he's not filming Doctor Who at the moment, and is perhaps filming something else entirely that requires that kind of hair.
