The mystery parcel has arrived. No late birthday/ early Christmas present of celebrity BF. It's an advance copy of a novel that I requested a couple weeks ago to be sent to my work address. Somehow there was no street number on the address, so even though it is addressed to Firiel on C. Drive they felt the need to work their UPS computer voodoo and deliver it to Firiel on W. Avenue. Good thing we're the same person! I would have just assumed they ran out of free books, but the not-me person who got the book would be very confused.
Having been away from LJ/DW a good while, I don't know if these videos have made the rounds yet, but even if they have, they're worth reposting. Thanks to
castalianspring for pointing out the first, which is now permanently stuck in my head.
"Glorious Dawn" - Carl Sagan feat. Stephen Hawking
"We Are All Connected" - Sagan, Feynman, Neil deGrasse Tyson & Bill Nye
Yes, I'm a dork. The first needs to be Doctor Who vid (omg please? somebody?) and the second needs to be a BSG vid. Also, I'm a Feynman fangirl now. He's too adorkable!
