1) I was named after a city. In Israel. Apparently the water there matches the color of my eyes

2) I have an ink kink. I love tattoos. But only when they’re on other people.

3) Driving fast in the summer, with the windows rolled down and having the music blasting so loud that your ears ring is one of the best feelings in the world. Thank god Richmond ( Read more... )

P. Pettigrew lives in Keswick and has a whiney little voice that is vaguely reminiscent of a certain...-dare I say....rat...?
I wonder if he has a silver hand too....
*snerk*

Thank god today was my last day.

PS - Apparently Keswick has found itself playing house to a good chunk of the Harry Potter universe.
...there’s an N. Tonks, a K. Shaklebolt and ( Read more... )

So....the name Dr. Hargreeves comes up on my list at work, and after snickering silently to myself for a good five minutes, I had to call the house and attempt to sell the man "thermal, energy efficient windows."
o.O
....He didn't want any....

He hung up on me

1) Parking cars tighter than sardines in a can...
My Grandfather is made of absolute WIN. Not only does he have the most awe-inspiring memory or the most incredible sense of direction, but he managed to fit my car into a parking spot that we never should have attempted.
And he did this with no damage to any of the poor cars involved.
There was ( Read more... )

Conversations between me and my sister tend to take the most random turn-offs.

Me:  Oi!  Dipshit
Michelle:  Stir-fry!!
Me: O_O!....how's it going?
Michelle: .....not bad.  You?
Me:  fine I guess.....my mushrooms are a little limp today though.  I think it might be the heat.
Michelle:  *face/palm*

*grins*
I love my wibble sister

This is me writing despite my absolute mortification - mainly because my hands are itchy with the need to pump something - anything - out. In reality though, this whole thing feels more than a little forced, probably because my muse seems to have hitchhiked its way out of my brain on the backs of errant snowflakes
dear god that’s wordy as hell…
Ok.  ( Read more... )

….you’ll find a Harry Potter techno-pop band

*blink*

… "What if your favourite literary characters were real, and they started a rock band? Well, for Harry Potter fans wondering where they can get their next fix of Hogwarts-related goodness, the answer could lie in a little-known craze that has been going on under our noses for some time now: wizard ( Read more... )

So circumstances beyond my control force me into missing Boys Night Out chez the Reverb on Thursday, simply because I’m not the type to hit a new venue while by my lonesome. My pique at this little road bump however, lasted only until evening plans with Sarah were confirmed, and later was forgotten entirely when Sarah called to inform me that, not ( Read more... )

For the most part, yesterday was boring. Sent a bombardment of emails to people I will probably never hear from (because the real working world sucks ass and nothing ever happens as planed), became acquainted with the inner workings of AfterWord (because you’re looking at the new Senior Editor -- that on it’s own is a very scary thing because ( Read more... )
