In which I subject you to links, memes, and other various crap I have discovered in my wanderings of the internet.

Goddammit Ginny, nobody my almost my dad's age is allowed to look
this sexy.
What Stark Knew - awesome fucking fanfic written especially for meeeeeeeeeeeeeee!! by
11nine73 SELECTIONS FROM H.P. LOVECRAFT'S BRIEF TENURE AS A WHITMAN'S SAMPLER COPYWRITER - speaks for itself, really. Still, like a lot of early sample's of an author, not his best work.
This is what happens when you get your understanding of science from cracked.com - personally I'm more worried about the disastrous consequences of letting barely-understanding litigious morons dictate the limits of scientific discovery.
2047 is starting to feel a lot closer.
puppet_paluza (who is behind the icon for this post) has finally made
Farscape puppet pals!!!! By virtue of living in Cardiff and thus being able to watch the occasional bout of on-location filming,
gothams3rdrobin provides us all with
minor Torchwood spoilers.
Blink - Amazingly brilliant video for amazing Doctor Who filk (real filk, not just a parody). You've never seen anything like this!
Speaking of amazing acts of fanishness and weeping angels: Best.
Dragon*Con costume. EVER.

* 1. Post these rules.
* 2. Each tagged person must post 8 things about themselves on their journal.
* 3. At the end, you have to choose and tag 8 people
* 4. No tag-backs.
1. I am naturally brunette, though I was blond when I was born and my hair has at times been orange, maroon, deep indigo, fire-engine red, and is currently blue-black.
2. My eye-colour is (according to my driver's licence) blue, but actually a kind of turquoise, which varies in shades from pale blue to bright green and sometimes grey, depending on the ambient light my mood, and how much sleep I've gotten lately. (Yes I have MARY SUE EYES. STFU)
3. my weight is none of your business (though more than I (and some of my wardrobe) would like).
4. My hight is 5'7" - which as I understand it is kinda tall for a girl. This (like the green of my blue-green eyes) is my mum's fault. (She had hazel eyes. They were beautiful, like her voice).
5. I am actually big boned. I have disproportionately thick wrists, an overly large rib cage, and I have never broken a bone in my body despite surviving many things that really should break ones bones - such as being pushed down a flight of stairs, slipping on poolside tiles and coming down hard on the edge of the jacuzzi after flipping over completely in midair (I HAVE WITNESSES), and being backed into by a car. Yay high bone density! Or something.
6. I was born on December 3rd, 1979. Do the math yourself.
7. The reason I keep referring to my mother in the past tense is Breast Cancer. I was 14. That's enough about that.
8. I really did have a bloody marvellous childhood, free of many horrors, and two of the very best parents a kid could ask for. My only sources of childhood trauma were (with very few exceptions) other children.
And I tag: anybody who hasn't done this, times 8. :P
Oh and lest I forget again:
I have adopted the following baby dragons; kindly click on them so they don't die...
Okay, it's 3 a-bloody-m, I work tomorrow, I go sleep now.
[gwen] Excuse me, have you seen a fish driving a sports car?
