So last night I didn't sleep until I knocked myself with a sleeping pill and even then it took an abhorrently long time, when GUESS WHAT, I couldn't get out of bed again in the morning early enough to go to the gym (this is probably just as well as I am INCREDIBLY FUCKING SORE), and took myself off to, as mentioned on Tumblr, pay a man £200 (plus ( Read more... )

Huh, good analogy.

I love Melville! In manageable doses. (Especially when I find details like his surprisingly intense dislike of penguins.)

...that might actually cause him to vanish into a puff of resolved homoerotic tension. Not the worst plan.

As long as I get to come before he vanishes (I think we may have to switch to me opening my Dreamwidth posts to comments as LJ has just tried to do a THING

Yeah, I have no idea of the mechanics there. (I saw the thing! I don't approve of the thing!)
