I've been at my grandparents since last Sunday (Mother's Day here) and I haven't checked anything on either LJ or Dreamwidth since before then (or Twitter). Isabella is being fixed (I hope) today; I have an appointment at 3pm with the Genius Bar and if nothing happens I will be Most Displeased (and kind of panicky, because while I can afford to ( Read more... )

Some things you may not know about me:

• For around fifteen years, I have been obsessed with the idea of spending the month of May 2031 in France. I'd start off in Domrémy, travel through Vaucouleurs, Chinon, Poitiers, Orléans, and so many other French sites, ending up in Rouen on the 30th of May, where they had better have SOMETHING happening to ( Read more... )

I'd been searching everywhere for rj_anderson's second novel, Rebel.

I kept mucking up with the til (the first time wasn't my fault as the customer changed his mind halfway through the transaction and once I press the "new books" button it is irreversible, but the second time I tried to charge a customer $69.95 for a $19.95 book. I also tried to give $11 change instead of $31) and I ( Read more... )

lizbee! The Gallifrey audios made it! ZOMG!

I am not listening while playing with Romana and Duggan. At all. Really.

Am thinking of opening an eBay account to sell earrings. Maybe. If I can get over the anxiety element.

And I just realised that Serenity (my portable hard-drive) was sitting next to my Chinese meditation balls. That were in a ( Read more... )

Let me start this post by saying this: I will forever love and adore faith_girl222 even more than I did last week (which is saying something!) because she sent me sockkpuppett's Scooby Road vid and it's friggin' better than everyone said. I don't know how this is possible but it is and there has been much flailing in Casa Smurf, although everyone else has gotten rather ( Read more... )

For the record: I am never, ever watching Grey's Anatomy with members of my family ever again. Never ever never. Ever. The end ( Read more... )
