Phew! Well, am I glad that's all out the way. D'you know, I'm exhausted. Everything from the past couple of months is catching up with me - now I know I'm getting old.

Still, guess I've got time now, touch wood, for a nice quiet Chris --

.... Christmas.

I haven't done my Christmas shopping yet.

Bugger.

Mmm, true, but am I a time-traveller or aren't I? This is pretty bad, even for me.

Do you at least know what you're getting for the people on your list?

[timey_wimey]

Some of them. Others are a little more difficult.

[jagan-glare.livejournal.com]

Heh, I hear you on that one. Sometimes you just gotta guess on 'em, and hope for the best. Where you heading to shop at?

[timey_wimey]

Somewhere off-planet, I think. Don't get me wrong, I love Earth, but there's some things you can only get in other places in the universe.

[jagan-glare.livejournal.com]

Sounds like a good time. Good luck to ya, Doc. You've got two days yet.

[timey_wimey]

Two days, all the time in the world.

I take it that means you've done all your shopping already, then?

[jagan-glare.livejournal.com]

Just managed to finish today. Now I just get over my nerves, and we're set.

[timey_wimey]

It's alright for some of us, then. Nerves? You?

[jagan-glare.livejournal.com]

Some people are just harder than hell to shop for. Heh. Yeah, believe it or not, I do get nervous at times.

[timey_wimey]

I can think of one or two, yeah. You didn't seem like the type to get nervous to me on first glance, no.

[jagan-glare.livejournal.com]

And those would be the ones that take forever to buy for, am I right? It takes a lot to get me nervous, and this qualifies for it.

[timey_wimey]

Oh, always. Is it just the act of giving the present, or the person you're giving it to? You know, if you don't mind me asking.

[jagan-glare.livejournal.com]

Thus, they are the ones who should be grateful that we brave the last-minute rush for 'em. It's a little of both. I'm...it's...moreso what I'm giving and saying. If that makes sense.

[timey_wimey]

Something makes me doubt they'll be the most grateful ones, though. ... Yeah. Yeah, that makes sense. Good luck with that, then.

[jagan-glare.livejournal.com]

Ain't that always the way? Heh, thanks. Hopefully it's good news.

[timey_wimey]

In my experience, most of the time, yeah. No reason why it shouldn't be, is there?

[jagan-glare.livejournal.com]

Heh. Even in the future, some things never change. Nope. It's the nerves talking, though. I'm not used to this.

[timey_wimey]

Human race, you lot never really change. You'll be fine.

[jagan-glare.livejournal.com]

But it never fails to surprise, either. Heh. If I can take on the rescue mission, you'd think this would be a piece of cake.

[timey_wimey]

Now, that is true. You lot, I can spend hundreds of years living with and talking to you all, and you never ever stop surprising me. Brilliant. Oh, I don't know. I have problems with what some people would call the little stuff.

[jagan-glare.livejournal.com]

We like keeping everyone on their toes. "The little stuff," huh? Like what?

[timey_wimey]

I can see that. Oh, you know. Stuff that isn't saving the world. Families, stuff like that. What some people like to think of as the little stuff.
