I have exactly forty three minutes of battery time left...

My new cable won't be here till the end of the week. I really can't spend time browsing around on LJ (I'm having to work with a pen, on paper! O:! Like it's the Middle Ages or something... *g*)

So I'm taking a leaf out of [personal profile] fluterbev's book; that is to say, copying this word-for word from her fabuouls meme:

I've long been delighted and impressed that the people who read my journal originate from far and wide. What I'd love is for you to comment below, and tell me which region/country you are from. And I'd love if you could add to that one particular thing that makes your part of the world unique. It might be music, a TV show, a recipe, a landmark, a specific historical fact. Anything you are proud of, whether other people might be aware of it or not.


Please. Entertain me! I am so very bored!

Meep! 39 minutes and falling...

Icon meme

Purloined from the shameless [personal profile] miwahni

1. Reply to this post, and I will pick four of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon squee. Whoo!

Because I'm still really bored...

and I can't leave the laptop alone, even though it gives me a headache, I am indulging in memes. Like this one, blaired from the estimable [personal profile] bluebrocade

List ten fictional characters you wouldn't kick out of bed (in no particular order and tag five people to do the same
- but I ain't a taggin', because... heck, I'm just not that demanding.


Anyone else want to play?

You're Invisible Man!

by Ralph Ellison

Most of your life, people have either ignored you or told you that you
were wrong. You've been duped, mistreated, misled, and neglected. Maybe it was because
of your race, or some other uniqueness that people were quick to condemn, but now you
just want to crawl into a hole and disappear. After all, nobody knows your name. But
you just might speak for everyone.



Take the Book Quiz
at the Blue Pyramid.




OMG, I'm an ELLISON!!! - That description is nothing like me!

The Music meme

Tagged by [personal profile] aerianya to:

1. List your top five favorite musical artists.
2. List your top five favorite songs from each artist.
3. Tag five people to do the same.

OK, my five favourite artists change day by day; ditto my favourite tracks, but at the moment they'd be (in no particular order):

As to the rest of it - been writing all day, on and off - whenever I get some ****ing  peace!!  which is not often - 1,200 words of the novel, a paltry 750 words of fic. I'll try and get some more done later - I really need to get the next bit of m'fic done and posted. ::spanks own bottom. Likes it too much. Spanks self again::

(heh. I really don't know why I write that, I'm really not into spanking at all; in fact it's a bit of a fandom squick. Hey ho, it makes me giggle and I need all the giggles I can get...  *g*)

That presidential candidate meme thingy. )

I have no idea what any of this means (if anything) but it looks like me and this Kucinich guy (who, since he hasn't featured at all, to my knowledge, on the extensive (aka excessive) BBC reporting on the presidential electioning and all that, is probably not much of a contender? (o:) should maybe go on holiday together? *G* Mike Gravel sounds like a made-up name; a gurning maniac played by Terry Gilliam in a Python sketch.

Lifted from the silk-lined pocket of the estimable [personal profile] janedavitt... (slightly modified)

If you had me under your command (ooh er!) and could make me write anything, what would you love to see me write? I may not actually write any of these (but might, because I am currently trawling for new ideas), but I'm curious...

Fannish or original, but if fannish it would have to be The Sentinel (or ASJ, I guess) because that's all I write.

Because all I seem to do these days is drink and read...

Blaired from the lovely [personal profile] snycock

1. Grab the nearest book
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 4 sentences on your LJ along with these instructions.
5. Don't you dare dig for that "cool" or "intellectual" book in your closet!  I know you were thinking about it!  Just pick up whatever is closest. 

The nearest book is lying, battered and spine-broken on the coffee table, ten inches from my hand. On page 123 and etc. it says...

This stoicism, this Henrylike dedication to my studies and general contempt for all things of this world, won me admiration from all sides, particularly from Henry himself. 'I wouldn't mind being here myself this winter,' he said to me one bleak night in November as we were walking home from Charles and Camilla's, our shoes sunk to the ankles in the sodden leaves that covered the path. 'The school is boarded up and the stores in town close by three in the afternoon. Everything's white and empty and there's no noise but the wind.

From 'The Secret History' by Donna Tartt - A most excellent book that I rec to one and all.

You Are 0% Republican



If you have anything in common with the Republican party, it's by sheer chance.

You're a staunch liberal, and nothing is going to change that!

How Republican Are You?


What an odd little meme that was.

Shamelessly purloined from [personal profile] sallymn

Comment on this post. I will choose seven interests from your profile and you will explain what they mean and why you are interested in them. Post this along with your answers in your own journal so that others can play along.

That TV Meme thing

Last seen with [profile] starwatcher307

Hmmm. I keep seeing this, cropping up here and there every so often, so I'm finally succumbing. An awful lot here I've never heard of let alone seen, an awful lot of my favourite shows that aren't here but, hey ho, here we go...
The Rules are:
- Bold all of the following TV shows of which you've seen 3 or more episodes.
- Italicize a show if you're positive you've seen every episode.
- Asterisk if you have at least one full season on tape or DVD
- If you want, add up to 3 additional shows (keep the list in alphabetical order) - I've added:
Monty Python's Flying Circus - how come this wasn't on the list? Unbelievable!
I'm Alan Partridge
The IT Crowd
ETA: (and Survivors)


Does it actually mean anything? I doubt it, really...  Anyway, I'm off to watch Top Gear.

I can't get in the kitchen to make tea.

This makes me sad, angry and question the meaning of my life. These are not good things for a Sunday Morning so I thought I should do a meme and apparently, I am...

Which Lolcat am I? )

Hmmm. Do I feel better? I really don't know. My brain is still too muddied from the lack of tea for me to say.

Mark got up at 6am to put the sealant on the kitchen floor; I cannot decide if he's a hero or a fool. The stuff ate through a bristle brush and two pairs of rubber gloves, the smell is unbearable and the floor can't be walked on for four hours. This means no access to the kettle or the stairs (and that means the bathroom) for another hour. I'm sitting on the sofa with the front door wide open to let in some air and I needs tea!!! Dammit!
