Lounge: 24 January

After a bit of negotiation with Biff (i.e. 'Of course, I'm the bloody Doctor, didn't you hear the bloody announcement? Yes, my hair is now red. Is that a PROBLEM?!'), the now ginger Doctor stumbles into the lounge this morning with multiple shopping bags.

They are filled with donuts and Coke and coffee and tea and...junk food, really. From both Britain and America.
And some fruits and vegetables cut up for those who don't fancy that sort of thing. losers With dips.

Ten minutes of fiddling with the sonic screwdriver and a bunch of swearing in multiple languages later, the TV now gets SkyOne, and he settles in to watch some trashy telly.

"Perhaps I should wear a nametag." Susan quirked her mouth. "With a little note that says, 'Shrink from 1962'. Perhaps people will ask me what I'm shrinking from, and learn something?" She shrugged. "But yes, London and Wales, January, 1962. And after I found out Elvis was dead, I declared a moratorium on finding out anything more for a while. Did I miss much?"

"Much? Only the greatest decade ever. You'll totally have to come over sometime and I'll introduce you to 80s music."

Susan laughed. "80's music? Seriously? Not the 70's, or the 90's? I think I'd like an introduction, certainly. It's all so confusing. I've been using the school computers to 'surf' the internet, and I keep ending in a tangle, and can't keep it all straight." She made a face. "Especially since it seems there's more than one past. Tell me, is President Bush in office in your world, or President Bartlet?"

"Bush," Lorelai said, rolling her eyes. "And I would be more than happy to introduce you to popular culture over the last few decades. I'm somewhat of an expert."

Susan dimpled. "How does one become an expert? School or independent study? And I'd very much like that, if it wouldn't be any trouble. I've not yet found much to do outside of school aside from exploring the island, which is lovely enough, but not possible in all weather."

"You become an expert by completely immersing yourself in it," Lorelai explained with a grin. "Well, my husband and I have a house on the mainland, just across the causeway. You'd be welcome to come over any time. Or, you could stop by my office at the school. I'm usually here on Tuesdays and Thursdays."

"Then I shall do that, my schedule permitting. Perhaps this Thursday we could get coffee?" She grinned. "I keep saying I will get coffee with people, and then we both forget. I think they get very busy here without any warning."
